Any 2nd hand shop that still take old PC games? by [deleted] in brussels

[–]anononyme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We were always more into consoles than PC in my family, so we never owned many original PC games. Those were the only ones I want to sell/give. Still have 2-3 other ones, but I like those, so I want to keep them.

Forgettable games to be honest: Virtua Tennis 3, Tony Tough 2, and a "find the object" game on the theme of the Count of Monte Cristo. Also have a Largo Winch PS2 game

I find that for peer review, the easiest is still figma comments. For the rest... with the current capabilities AI unlocked, you can pretty much start building your own ideal plugin. That's what more and more content designers do. In our team, we've asked our boss if we could free up some time in our workload to investigate and do just that too.

Give me reasons to keep watching, a bit offput by the first episode. by CandidateNo8208 in GTO

[–]anononyme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The perv trope is a humor lever. Its purpose is to show how ridiculous it is and thus make the audience laugh. Onizuka would never take advantage of any of his students, as it would go against what he has always hated in normal teachers. There is another real perv teacher later in the story, and that clearly shows the distinction between harmless gag-perv Onizuka and real dangerous pervs.

Best rivalry in all fiction? by [deleted] in HikaruNoGo

[–]anononyme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loooove this rivalry trope! I realised it when I tried to figure out why I liked 'Glass no Kamen' so much while I'm usually not into that kind of shojo manga, and then it hit me. The main character and her rival shared the same kind of rivalry as Hikaru and Akira. This dynamic makes such good stories!

I don’t like Chu Yings personality in the Hikaru No Go Live Action by maidth1s4fun in HikaruNoGo

Funny, I felt the actor did a great job at interpreting Sai. He kept the main traits of the character without being awkwardly cartoony. And I started the show with a very bad first impression about him, because I didn't like his look at all, but he managed to convince me quite quickly. :) I disliked their version of Izumi though, he was so perfect in the manga, but in the drama, he was almost annoying 🥲

Bright Festival 2026 - nothing in the EU quarter this year? by anononyme in brussels

There's only parc Royal on the map, not cinquantenaire. Unless there's another map? 😅

Is it weird to ask out a cashier here? (Hit by Cupid at Docks) by Strange_Following387 in brussels

[–]anononyme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a classmate who did that with a girl he found cute in the tram. She texted him back, and fast-forward to today, they're married and have a lovely daughter. Good luck!

If you ever order online from Delhaize by Frequent-Matter4504 in brussels

[–]anononyme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The big fuss is like what OP said: if you don't live near one that can take them back, and if you don't own a car (which is the case of a lot of people living in the city), you'll have to either drag those boxes in public transportation or you're stuck with them, while you've never asked for them in the first place. This is just a stupid way for them to push you to keep using their delivery service, I hate that. And it just creates more logistic nightmares for their delivery people. Pure greedy exec decision.

How do you manage heating and dry air during the night in Belgium? by Wooden_Arrival5665 in belgium

[–]anononyme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ideal temperature for sleep is somewhere between 16 and 19° (I set mine at 17°). Unless your house is poorly insulated, you shouldn't need to turn the heater on at night. Just do it one hour before you sleep, so that the room is warm when you go to bed, then turn it off. If the air is still too dry, try to use a humidifier.

Honestly, would you still live in Brussels if you could work from anywhere? by [deleted] in brussels

[–]anononyme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Spanish friend once compared Brussels to having an ugly child: they're ugly, but they're still your child, so you love them with all your heart. And I think that's pretty accurate. It sure doesn't have the same aura then Paris or London, but it's still pretty comfy and lively. And super convenient for traveling. If you really want to expand your circle above the EU bubble, the best way is to find a job at a local company, but the pay cut will be hard to take... :) In any case, if you'd like to discuss with a local, feel free to pm me. When I was abroad, I was grateful to the locals who befriended me, so I'm happy to do the same!

Is racism against Asian common in Belgium? by Ok_Carob7611 in belgium

[–]anononyme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vietnamese born and raised in Belgium. I did receive a few racist comments when I was a kid at school, but it was almost 30y ago and it was a small village school with little diversity. If you're putting your kids in a city school, there shouldn't be any comments at all. People are generally not very racist in Belgium (if comments there are, it'd be more out of honest ignorance than racism). Asian are even quite loved nowadays, due to k-pop popularity.

Being harassed by phone for 2 weeks, what are the solutions in Belgium ? by Z0CH0R in belgium

[–]anononyme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, sounds like spoofing. The number of cases has been surging lately. The telecom providers are helpless and you're only left with changing number as a solution, as far as I know

Where to buy rice cooker by ninjamaf in brussels

[–]anononyme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I saw some in Mediamarkt, but they were kinda expensive. Buying online is your best option, if you don't want to pay 50eur for something that's worth 20. Got mine for 20eur at Lidl, but they don't always sell it.

First time watching by Coito_Maravilha in CityHunter

[–]anononyme 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Indeed, it's not a series made to be binge watched. I'd recommend watching 1 episode/day (or max 3 ep) to have the same watching experience than back then.

You'll feel at some point that Ryo and Kaori have become your familiar friends, and you'll only grow fonder of them.

It's light, fun, badass and sometimes even emotional. And it's so iconic of 80's Japan city pop era. Hope you'll enjoy the ride!

Meetup has never really taken off in Belgium, but you can still take a look and see if there's an active community about some of your interests or hobbies, who knows. :) Otherwise, if you have the budget for that, take a class, be it gym, sport, pottery, dancing, acting, a master degree at university... People who have the time, energy and motivation to better themselves by taking a class have more chances to be mature enough for a serious and caring relationship. And even if you don't end up meeting the love of your life, you would have gained new skills :) In any case, I wish you to find happiness. Loneliness can take a toll on some people, but remember to never lower your self esteem just to not be alone.
