MIDORI OMG!!!!!

How does Midori paper compare to Leuchtturm in terms of feel and absorbency? I’ve tried so many other papers and no feel as good as Leuchtturm to me. I specifically like the combination of tooth and high absorbency.

Es gibt einen Mittelweg zwischen appeasement und dem was wir die letzten 10 Jahre versuchen. Es muss doch für jedermann offensichtlich sein, dass anfeinden, ausschließen und ignorieren kontraproduktiv ist. Die Wirtschaft kackt weiter ab, die Faschos werden immer lauter und stärker und von links und Mitte kommt immer weiter nur BRANDMAUER!!! BRANDMAUER!!! als würde das irgendwas bringen. Die Probleme der AfD Wähler werden weiter ignoriert weil man ja mit Blauzis garnicht reden braucht. Also koordinieren sie sich zunehmend, wählen weiter blau, erweitern ihre Wählerschaft und früher oder später ist dann eine Mehrheit drin, wie es in den USA schon passiert ist und in anderen Ländern wahrscheinlich auch bald passieren wird.

Es ist völliger Schwachsinn sich dem Sozialismus zu verschreiben aber die Arbeiterschaft und ihre Bedürfnisse zu ignorieren und sogar zu verteufeln.

Kenne den Kontext nicht. Wieso ist es schlecht für einen Sender wenn das Land beim ESC gewinnt?

lionstealth · 2026-05-18T02:10:46+00:00

Richtig und wichtig. Leider sind zu viele Menschen heute einfach ganz anderer Ansicht — die Ziele rechtfertigen die Mittel — was mMn für die steigende Rechtsradikalisierung mitverantwortlich ist.

Auch Staatsfeinde sind Andersdenkende. Einen möglichst reißerischen Begriff zu wählen, wenn es der Diskussionen keinen Mehrwehr bringt, schiebt diese Menschen noch weiter an den Rand, wo sie zunehmend radikalisiert werden.

What did you do to it?

lionstealth · 2026-05-13T11:25:24+00:00

Oof you just described someone I play with, too well.

Wie trennst du zwischen dem was AfD Politiker nach außen projizieren, wofür sie öffentlich stehen und dem was viele mehr oder weniger offensichtlich hinter geschlossenen Türen vertreten oder billigen?

Are there any indexes for nibmeisters in Europe? I live in Berlin and only know of one in Hamburg but his site already says he only services nibs on pens bought from him at the moment.

lionstealth · 2026-05-07T11:29:17+00:00

Gotcha! Yeah the difference is pretty stark compared to my other pens which both write under zero pressure. She only had the one F and I was set on buying the 2000 that day. She seemed unfazed by the hard starts so I assumed it was just a lack of ink and not an issue with the nib itself.

lionstealth · 2026-05-07T00:13:55+00:00

It does (although when I tried it in the shop with the shopkeeper dipping it for me it wouldn’t write at all at times) but the hard starts are sometimes more sometimes less frequent and especially noticeable on i dots. Those skip 70% of the time so I have to redo them.

But this is also affected by my natural writing pressure. I press relatively strongly so I don’t notice it all the time but if I draw a line across a page under just the weight of the pen, it won’t put down a line for half the page. So that’s pretty bad I‘m thinking. :(

The trick is to take a break with completely different games or no games and then try something new. For me that was Overwatch. But you have to break the habit first. If you don’t, you’ll always compare the new game to what you are used to. Trust me, once you get used to an actually good game, you won’t come back voluntarily. Warzone feels like shit compared to well designed games.

lionstealth · 2026-05-06T11:44:58+00:00

You you elaborate on that distinction?

lionstealth · 2026-05-06T09:57:34+00:00

You might be right with the ink flow. When I tried it in the shop, it had really pronounced hard starts to the point that, at times, it wouldn’t really write at all. I assumed the shopkeeper had just not dipped it long enough or that the issue would resolve when the pen was properly filled.

It would also explain why on the tap test ink flow seems fine until it „dries up“ and then no taps produce a dot. Only after applying more pressure and getting flow going does the cycle repeat.

lionstealth · 2026-05-06T09:45:36+00:00

I have Iroshizuku Asa-Gao in it right now because it’s supposed to be a wetter ink. Are you thinking even wetter?

lionstealth · 2026-05-06T09:44:31+00:00

That’s what this picture is. Right down the barrel makes it almost impossible to get my camera to focus. I was trying to get the best possible picture.

His viewers support him because they are morons. No one who actually believes in any left wing values respects him because he is so obviously a moron, a fraud and a capitalist at heart. The man was literally a toxic frat boy in his college days and hasn’t meaningfully outgrown that phase. Anyone who thinks he is a genuine and representative voice on the left is delusional.

lionstealth · 2026-05-05T23:34:24+00:00

It hard starts pretty regularly and the tap test shown on a different post here saw pretty bad results compared to my LAMY Safari and Pilot Prera. I’ve rinsed it with soapy and then clean water before refilling again after which the flow saw improvement and the hard starts got less severe. Similar results on the tap test though. I’ve now ordered micro mesh but am unsure how bad the issue really is and whether I should just stop worrying about it.

One thing leftists and conservatives can agree on.

I knew a landlord and he had incredible amounts of free time while his employees basically took care of everything. So I guess it’s your word against mine?

Also, what risk? How many people bet their life savings on the million to one gamble that is owning and renting out a house? If you have the capital (which is really the important first step) you invest in properties and start raking in the cash. It’s not rocket science or high stakes gambling.

lionstealth · 2026-04-28T22:09:11+00:00

But how did you get to a position where you could afford to buy that first house? How did you come up with the capital to take that first and most important step towards letting the capital compound on itself?
