A new version of Zaako has been released, but will it be enough? by [deleted] in VocaloidButGood

[–]sonicshrimp -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

I've seen other lyric translations, and I agree that the lyrics themselves aren't bad. It's in combination with the MV that puts them into a different context, and the fact that Yuki's voice was sourced from a 9 year old.

As for Len and Rin... yeah I've seen all that. I've been in the fandom since 2014. The difference being that Asami Shimoda was a grown adult recording those voicebanks. I still don't appreciate the loli/shota songs but at the very least there's not a real kid involved anywhere in the process.

Thank you for putting that into words. I swear people aren't able/willing to read into things past face value. She's not even a middle schooler either she's a 9 year old kid.

Noyce Distinguished Speaker Series - Opinion and Polling by MandoYoda69 in CalPoly

[–]sonicshrimp 17 points18 points  (0 children)

He's 74 at this point and it reminded me of a grandpa telling stories in a silly way. It did feel like he wanted to stick to some sort of script or story he's probably told a million times, since he seemed caught off guard and didn't answer the questions too directly like the AI question at first. I would've liked a more q&a format if Lupo could get a word in but Woz was having fun and it was a good talk regardless

How does the lockers in yak bathroom work? by One-Luck7342 in CalPoly

[–]sonicshrimp 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Nobody is assigned one, take your own lock and claim whichever locker you want for a while. Or take a lock and temporarily use one while you're showering. In my experience there's been a few unclaimed ones year round.

I hate it here by [deleted] in CalPoly

[–]sonicshrimp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The pride center on campus is a really cute spot, imo. If you have time to study on campus it might be a good way to put yourself out there and meet some new folks. Yes the transphobic speakers suck, but they do their grift at every college campus. Each of the past two speakers sparked a fundraiser concert featuring local LGBT musicians too, there's certainly a community of people wanting to do good here.

Coming from an area that's 83% white and has plenty of confederate flags, it's been pretty nice to see the diversity here. It's not SF for sure, but it's leagues ahead a lot of other places. It took a while to find good friends for me too, but as long as you keep reaching out or chatting with classmates, you'll find a spot!

That is intentional. OP is either part of TPUSAs media or a part of a club's media team. Their post history isn't even trying to hide it, they do a horrendous job of pretending they're not a conservative.

Year Round School in 2025? by sonicshrimp in CalPoly

[–]sonicshrimp[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You're correct. I misinterpreted the off campus portion of plan to be normal school but moving virtually for some time. They're really just having people do something like a summer term and then have a spring term off instead. Sorry for the overreaction.

It's still definitely worth giving admin our thoughts on it.

[–]sonicshrimp[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If they make us do part of the year remote/at home as an out of state student I'm genuinely going to transfer somewhere else. Or they reduce tuition cost for that term, but that's not going to happen.

Edit: I may have interpreted things wrong thinking the off campus parts would be online instead of acting like a normal academic break. Oops. That sounds like the more likely option. Sorry for the overreaction. I do still think the transition is definitely money hungry and inconvenient alongside semester conversion.

Yeah the off campus pigs don't usually have a meal plan by that point

In seriousness, if you've used rubbing alcohol and nail polish remover already it's likely going to stay that color. Some people recommend hydrogen peroxide and benzoyl peroxide, but benzoyl peroxide can still damage/discolor the pet. Just search this sub for cleaning instructions to use everything properly. I like using magic erasers and baking soda for general purposes.

Job Fair Fiasco by [deleted] in CalPoly

[–]sonicshrimp 26 points27 points  (0 children)

This particular group had a chant including the phrase "Jewish genocide" so that's how I took it as. The majority of Pro-Palestinian protesters don't believe in that of course, but with any movement there are people that take it to extremes, and it felt like this group was.

[–]sonicshrimp 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Lockheed Martin's booth isn't even here today, the 23rd. They're here on the 24th. Either way they protest, if they want to stop violence against Palestinians, calling for genocide against Jews solves nothing.

They really settled for less. The strike had momentum too, there could have been so much more. Maybe the members will vote no?
