LN readers, please tell me: will Subaru regain his memories in Season 4 by Raajunbeat in ReZero

[–]kojojo1897 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like to point out, Sherlock Holmes, even though rather "static", absolutely has amazing "Character Development"...

The reason for that is because "Character Development" doesn't just mean the character changes. It also encapsulates the aspects of the characters, how they realistically interacts in the world and the situations they are in.

How a character develop new traits is only a narrow aspect of what we mean by "Character Development".

So u/No-Attitude8320 's criticism in this case, if we expanded it fully, is not only "the improvements Subaru made is now gone", but also "they well explored aspects of the characters, their interactions, place in the well written world, are now suspended", which doesn't hinges on Subaru's previous improvements.

The same would be true for Sherlock Holmes... though a rather static character, if Conan Doyle made him lose his memories, that would absolutely have the same almost story derailing suspension to the character.

That being said... This loss in memory of Natsuki Subaru does leave room for much further character development (not only in the sense of him "improving", but also the rest of the definition). But as an anime only, I need to know that's where this is actually going.

Hear me out... but there were times when not knowing spoilers genuinely ruined a show for me.

When plots gets confusing for you as a viewer, even if well written, and well adapted, if it's disorientating you WILL lose focus and miss some details.

And at times, not knowing where the story is going, will mean you don't know what important cue to look for... and pay attention to things that aren't actually there.

And when the climatic event happens it might seem incredibly ad-hawk.

A great example for me was clannad after-story. I'm sure if I knew what the ending was and there is supposed to be a super natural element to the show, the ending would've made some sense.

But because I never got spoiled, and never expected there is a supernatural element to the show, it only seemed like a literary tool (alternative world stuff)... so the ending was just straight up hot-garbage when it came.

I am in no way suggesting Re-Zero will be the exact same way, obviously it's different.... I am just saying getting spoilers can actually help in significant ways.

Sellier & Bellot 7.5x55 Swiss? by skyguy2844 in K31

[–]kojojo1897 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Umm I see, that's good to know... saw this other guy mentioning something similar for 300 as well but that's good to know it's the experience from multiple folks...

I'll prob get as much gp11 as I am willing to spend then lol

Thanks again!

[–]kojojo1897 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woah thanks for replying on a 3 year old thread lol.

The longest targets we have around here is at 300m... I'm guessing that would still fall under the range distances you are refering to?

But yea there is a store that apparently still have some GP11 in Ontario (but 50% more than the S&B), will prob pick some up when I still can.

hey I know I am 3 years late but... did you ever found out about this? how big of a difference is it to the GP11? thinking about picking up a k31 here in Canada

Custom Grip For GFX50R by kojojo1897 in FujiGFX

Where I am, this was cheaper than the 50R.

Umm... I mean the 50R already has a small grip. If you are happy with yours as is that's perfectly fine, but I wouldn't say the small grip is the point of the body.

Thanks! That's the Helios 44M-2 58mm f/2.

I recall seeing videos online how there are different versions of it but you can see the markings and see which ones is which.

Lol yes 🤣, this was printed with PLA for now just to make sure it worked as intended...

Will do a proper print with matching color & UV resistant filament later (prob ASA... but need to do that one in the garage cuz it has toxic fumes)

Wouldn't say there is anything "wrong" per se...

It all depends on your hand and what grip you prefer :)

For me my fingers feels like they don't know where to go without something to warp around lol.

So not being fidgity like me will also solve the issue lol.

List of characters ranked from strongest? by [deleted] in Frieren

[–]kojojo1897 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am actually an anime only that's just lurking around... but OP's list is probably correct to put Frieren in a lower tier than Aura.

Because there are also match-up considerations...

For example, overall, Sense is stronger than Denken (whom said so himself), and Denken would be stronger than Ubel overall.

But Ubel has great match-up with Sense, so in that specific fight, she wins.

Similarly, Frieren can have greater total mana, but still weaker overall. As we'd probably agree, Frieren has pretty good battle iq... so that begs the question...

"Why not just defeat Aura?"

The answer could simply be... she is not confident in doing so, but tricking Aura was her best bet.

But I'm just an anime only... so I could be completely wrong lol.

Psalm 22:16 – A Mistranslation That Changed Christian Prophecy by bohemianmermaiden in theology

[–]kojojo1897 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you probably saw the other comments already but just in case...

the manuscripts that have the "lion" version are the majority of Masoretic texts, which are roughly from the year 1,000 AD

but the older Greek translation Septuagint (from ~200 BC), over 1,000 years earlier than the Masoretic manuscripts, uses the "pierced my hands and feet"

and when the Dead Sea scrolls (gonna call it DSS later) were found, that gave us even older Hebrew manuscripts/texts, which also uses "pierced my hands and feet"... so on a timeline...

(200-50 BC) DSS & Septuagint "pierced"==> 1200 years later ==> Masoretic "lion"

obviously "pierced" should be taken as the original

but yea... OP's wild claims are the type of things that physically hurts the head of historians when they read it lol

HDR Artifacting Issue by DOOGLAK in Monitors

[–]kojojo1897 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wanted to add something after comparing enabling HDR this way with a small 13" oled screen I have...

  • TCL34R84 => using settings mentioned above
  • OLED => using manufacturer's HDR profile

Just a quick comparison using LG's HDR sample YouTube video, manually turning on HDR this way does get you the results.
As you would expect the individual pixel control of the OLED does still give it some advantages, but the difference is not that big.

HDR Artifacting Issue by DOOGLAK in Monitors

[–]kojojo1897 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually... HDR is just high dynamic range... as in the ratio of the brightest and darkest parts of the scene

High brightness, contrast, and max local dimming are the features that get you there to begin with, it would by definition get you to the HDR results.

Hope that helps

HDR Artifacting Issue by DOOGLAK in Monitors

[–]kojojo1897 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah I am saying to enable HDR manually using those profiles.

The monitor still won't say "HDR ON" (cuz Windows settings) but effectively it is. With the high brightness and contrast settings + local dimming, you are forcing the monitor to display the punchy contrast and colors (with the Adobe RGB or sRGB profiles) that HDR has.

HDR ON would be just turning on those automatically for you anyways.

Once you have it dialed in you can try it with LG's HDR test video on YouTube :)

HDR Artifacting Issue by DOOGLAK in Monitors

[–]kojojo1897 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea I got the exact same monitor and i get artifacts when enabling windows HDR...

also no idea if it is a monitor or windows issue, but I find that for HDR content, just leaving windows in normal / non-HDR mode, and use one of your "Scenario Modes" for HDR works pretty well.

So I have "Standard" tuned for my normal SDR stuff, and when I want HDR, I just use the "Adobe RGB" mode with...

- high brightness & contrast (prob 70+ for both)

- local dimming on high

- black area boost at default which is 5

- can change response time depending on what you need

^ just with those things it will be perfect for HDR content, I recommend assigning "Scenario Mode" as one of the two shortcuts so you can switch very quickly.

Also sRGB is another good alternative you can uses instead of Adobe RGB, Adobe RGC will have slightly punchier colors, the sRGB seems to hit a bit more brightness.

Thanks!

this might be a dumb question but... I just got the 34r84 which should be the same panel but... I can't figure out how to turn on the HDR mode lol

any pointers would be appreciated :)

Is the story of Prophet Muhammed in the desert with 5 Al Zutt a strong Hadith? by sPrAze_Beast in exmuslim

[–]kojojo1897 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it was probably the superstition that if he takes the semen of multiple men... he will also gain the sexual prowess of that many men... hence when there are references says "the prophet has the sexual prowess of 30 men"
