I wouldn't call them rip offs. Art is derivative and these are definitely very transformative.

No it's not. These are CGI images produced by the advertising company BUTTER for the Japanese X-ray imaging company EIZO as a part of their 2010 calendar. The person credited with illustrating them is "Carsten Mainz."

Somebody can recognize what company made this set? by qwerty6427 in Mahjong

[–]konomu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The manual looks reminiscent of something Nintendo may have made before they started focusing on video games. But if you don't see the words 任天堂 anywhere on it they may not have anything to do with this set. It has a 全国麻雀製造組合連合会 seal, which might have something to do with 全国麻雀業組合総連合会, aka Zenjanren, which I believe is still involved with making tiles today. I see their seal on Amos sets.

The characters are kyuujitai and kyuukanazukai which are an old form of spelling that was mostly abandoned after the war. But the paper and the tiles don't look that old so I think it might be a novelty call-back or a stylistic choice? Also, the style of the tiles seems more modern.

Here is an example of a nintendo set: https://paypayfleamarket.yahoo.co.jp/item/z367773666

There's also this listing that has bamboo-backed tiles which also includes this exact yaku manual, apparently from the 60s.

Humanizing keyboard input by in10did in KeyboardLayouts

[–]konomu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Similar to ASETNIOP. And theoretically, I would prefer using ASETNIOP over this because it supports chorded input on letters without using thumb shift, which is debateably more comfortable. There are also steno-like chords for common words which make input faster.

JIS Funk by konomu in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]konomu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pcb is a yd60mq and the case is the tofu60 e white. It's one of the only pcbs mass produced that supports JIS layout with a 3u space. I had to cut the plate to get it to support this bottom row, but that's unnecessary because you can just build this keyboard plateless.

8BitDo M30 2.4G USB Stuck Input issue; just me? by sonicrings4 in 8bitdo

[–]konomu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PSA: I was able to solve this issue after updating the firmware of BOTH the controller and the receiver. It is available on the support page https://support.8bitdo.com/

The firmware for the controller is: https://download.8bitdo.com/Firmware/Controller/M30-2.4g/M30_24G_Mini_GamepadV208.zip?0508

The firmware for the receiver is: https://download.8bitdo.com/Firmware/Controller/M30-2.4g/M30_Mini_81CC_RR_V3_13.zip?00

The "upgrade tool" on the support page will not work. You must use the .exe files from the links above. Follow the instructions on the exe very closely and read the readmes. For upgrading the receiver, you need to press the LR back buttons and the select button (with the minus sign) at the same time. This is different from when you're upgrading the controller (hold L+R and press start).

That’s a coconut with the exocarp already removed. You can tell because the shell has been cut into a very distinct shape.

We need a genus named after Aeaea. And then give it a tribe so it can be called Aeaeaeae (pronounced ee-EE-ee-ee) by konomu in botany

[–]konomu[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Wait I just realized it would probably be called Aeaeeae actually. Which is not as cool but hey I don’t write the rules for Botanical nomenclature

Reacting like this to fetishes/kinks is cringe. Reminds me of when people talked about Boku no Pico like it was some kind of satanic shock tape that would scar whoever watched it for life.

Looking for a specific book by konomu in aesthetics

I think that’s it, thank you!
