my mum's trying to get our other tenant to talk to the landlord (the tenant's mother) about how we're not going to have broadband when they take the copper wires out next month, so we NEED to get fibre installed. but both of them are so fucking technogically illiterate and retarded that they keep refusing to do ANYTHING and it's making me so pissed off that i might actually just go and yell at the both of them myself.

they have ALL the stuff they need to get it sorted and they just… won't? no matter how many times it's been explained??? i might break something i just want my fucking interwebs

Love related well everything related, I just don’t want to expect anything more I’ve been let down too many times. For example a “friend” said we would hangout but we have different schedules so I just told her, the next time she’s free to text me but she didn’t. So I guess she doesn’t want to hangout anymore. I guess my problem is ultimately depending on a perceived outcome that is not guaranteed.

otaku disillusionment Friend 5/5/25 (Mon) 14:33:05 No.4079 [Reply]

I feel like I'm loosing interest in otaku related media and culture. I'm just exhausted by everything and rarely find anime I like. At the same time, I've slowly become more and more interested in traditional Japanese and East Asian culture, folklore, and religion. I think I'm burned out and need some recommendations. The problems I'm having are:

1. Repetitive themes, plot structures, and character types. It feels like every genre has been done to death at this point.

2. Lack of artistic skill. A lot of anime looks and feels the same. There's less stylistic diversity, lack of attention to setting the scene, framing shots well, just telling the story visually etc. I don't blame the animators for this. Its the conditions they work under.

3. Immorality and lack of meaning. Now this is a tough one. A lot of anime is like porn that's just meant to titillate you visually or satiate your need for genre slop. Its like a big greasy hamburger and who doesn't want one of those once in a while? But man cannot live on burgs alone, unless he's American. A lot of otaku slop feels spiritually worthless. There's no real reflection on important life themes or cause for reflection or really anything. A lot of anime and games half ass it resulting in neither a sleazy hamburger or a well made nutritious meal but a god awful hybrid.

I need recommendations /kind/.

Well you could always watch japanese sumo if you feel like it. Its rather entertaining,infact its pretty much the only japanese thing that I still watch on the regular. There are a lot of youtube channels that cover the sport so you can watch a few matches and see if you like it.

There is nothing to know about sumo anyway, its just big fat butterballs pushing and sometimes performing throws each other.it's like playing poker, you can learn by watching. The rules can be summarised in a few lines :
>big fat butter men must bow
>big fat buttermen must push eachother out of the ring
>first one out of the ring or to hit the ground loses.
>winner bows, loser walks away in shame
that's it.

/kind/ streaming Friend 5/7/24 (Tue) 20:03:17 No.1462 [Reply][Last 50 Posts]

Heyya,

there is a new iteration of /kind/ again! To celebrate it, its planed to stream some show again. This time, everyone here should vote on what will be streamed. The options are:

- Sōsō no Frieren - Laid-back, but also sad slice of life story about an elf-girl realising she will outlive every human around her.
- Scavengers Reign - SciFi animated show that follow survivors of a space ship wreck that now have to survive on an alien planet and adapt to its unique flora and fauna.
- Hilda - Bluehaired girl lives through various adventures vaguely inspired by Scandinavian lore. Very beautiful.

Just post which show should be watched and if possible also prefered timezone, to make planning a little bit easier.

The first streams should start this weekend so (2024-05-11/12). The exact time will be set on friday, for now its planed to stream each day for one hour.

Welcome back /kind/!

Yes i kinda knew about the chink to euro scam and their absurd price points for what was essentially chinkshit.that was one of the things that motivated me to get eye correction surgery.

Back in college my friends father was an optician and he would always tell me about all kinds of interesting trade practices in the industry, like he would say that most lenses are dirt cheap with a huge profit margin and little difference in quality and that even the cheapest lens has a high profit margin.

Friend 4/23/25 (Wed) 12:10:27 No.3977

>>3974
Absolutely true. I actually sell lenses at a $30 markup over wholesale (to pay $10 for cutting, $10 for shipping, and $10 for myself). I do this as a way of flying the middle finger to all the surrounding eyecare practices.

On frames, I just price around the industry standard ($325 for any of my acetate frames) and that leaves me with a reasonable profit given the labor I put in with handcrafting every pair. The industry has bloated frame prices so much to pay for this absurd chain of middlemen that contribute nothing, that I just price according to their bloat and I consider it a fair wage for my work.

As far as lenses go, everyone deserves to see as good as technology will allow. So I do transparent pricing with my customers and tell them that whatever I pay for the lens, it's $30 over that to pay for the additional cost I will incur over it's wholesale value, $10 only of which is my pay for my time to order it and then verify it on arrival.

Fuck everyone who is charging 12x markup on lenses (in some cases more).

/kind/ the internet is not a great place for the humble recovering hikki looking for guidance. Rage filled incel spam, pseudo psychology, really self-destructive stuff. Where can I get actually good advice?

I’ve never been in a relationship before. I’m a few years behind everyone else in college and have no idea what to do and watching YouTube videos and reading stuff online doesn’t seem to help.
