discussion Anti-Social & Lurker - Hideout spot

Do you happen to know what that gif is from? It feels familiar but I can't quite place it.

I saw some art in an anime girl thread where that character was being used and it was referred to as "Megumin". Check with @4rcan1st - it was his thread and his images.

It's KonoSuba, Megumin

Except, having been in Canada, it's weirder than that, imo

When you ask "How far is it to City X". The answer is "Oh, about an hour away."
"How far to the grocery store?" "Not far. About 5 minutes that way."

In practical terms... Canadians measure distances... in minutes and hours...
Any other countries do that? (honestly asking)

I think a lot of places do that. Here we usually say "Go straight all life" just to say you're on the right path, but it will be long until you get there.

hi everyone, how are you doing tonight?

Is that a country thing, or a rural/urban thing? If I'm in an urban area, I'm not giving distance in time, because (other than being relative) traffic dictates the time it takes. It's always "about half a mile/kilometer that way (depending upon where I am), or a few hundred yards/meters, or three stops on the subway. If I'm out in the countryside, then it's often in hours or minutes. "It's about 15 minutes to the closest pub." "I'm about an hour from your house." "It's about three hours to the big city." But that's just me, guessing the type of answer the person wants and what fits into the conversation.

People are suffering because of the last hours of the weekend

Interesting, I'm from a small city, so I got used to measure distance like this. I will have a talk with some friends from bigger cities to compare how we say the distances here in my country. But I try to avoid given a distance, maybe say that "it's three blocks away", something like that.

When you go out and look at the VPNs people suggest, make sure you double check that you choose one that doesn't keep logs. An example would be the Proton VPN somebody else suggested. You can also consider a variety of others like Private Internet Access VPN. I personally like Proton Mail for anonymous email, so their policies seem to be pretty protective of their customers.

Here in Brazil there is a kinda big lawyer that specializes in digital cases, and he said once that Proton was one of the worse for security.
Any official document that you show them they already give you the all the data they have on the person.
I think he said it did keep logs, and he also posted some court documents to prove it. (I didn't open it, but it was official documents).

I think I will follow the other and also hit the hay! Good night to you guys, and have fun!

good morning and thank you very much, played a bit of nikke and epic 7, then passed out lol

I hope everythings been fun for you as well!

Welcome, new LewdCorners!
One tip: If you want to talk but don't know the subject, try to find one similarity on the current one to one that you like talking about and steer the conversationto that. Most of times it work. Hahaha
But now, if you don't mind answering, tell me one food dish from your country that you like, and one that you find weird.

good morning and thank you very kindly for the tip!

for food, I'm american so my favorite food probably isn't all that interesting but I will say that, general tso's chicken from the walmart deli is probably my favorite food ever lol, as far as something weird, I'm not the most diverse food dude, but probably boiled peanuts, every now and then I really want some with a glass coke, they are kinda gross though imo

Yeah. I have accounts on lots of forums, not even porn ones, but I never stopped to talk, usually just got what I was looking for and went away.
To be honest I was pretty pissed about the LC coins and only started talking here for Members+, but now I'm happy about it. Talking here is fun! Hahaha

same, I have an account for basically every platform, porn and non porn lol, but I have never once said a word online until this forum.

I will admit the LC coins made me do it and it took months for me to finally say anything here, but when I did, I found out everyone here is based, so its been a pleasure meeting everyone, so much so I actually want to get rid of the cooldown on likes more than get access the games lmao

also good morning and good evening to everyone and I hope everyones been enjoying their day!

I've never had any chinese food that wasn't noodles, and here we also have lots of chinese places. Hahaha

Just yesterday I saw a trending video about putting peanuts inside coke. Sounded intriguing.

Yeah, Twitter's algorithm must send his tweets to all brazilians, regardless of if they follow him or not. Hahaha
He I don't mind, but there are other accounts that I just don't care and they keeps popping up in my feed.

Are you sure this is the same Proton VPN? They pretty publicly advertise that they keep no logs, and when ordered to produce them, they've stated that they can't comply, because they don't keep logs. They've even contracted with a third party to audit that, because people are naturally wary about this. I'm not saying that it's possible that they are bad, but all indication I've heard says otherwise. Now, I don't know about the other Proton services. I only recalled this info as I was shopping around for a VPN, and am not an expert by any means.

I also like Private Internet Access, who also publishes that they don't keep logs, has audits, and publicizes the audits.

Yeah, me too. I also thought it was a great take on the idea of 'never let the truth get in the way of a good story'.

That's fair. It's just not for me.
I've said before, I'm at an all time low of consuming stories (books, tv, movies) because of that.

There's an ex-employee of The Escapist, Daren Mooney, that said people like me are "continuity fetishists".
I'm ok with being called that. A consistent world is a sane world, at least for me.

But you're totally right. I've taken writing classes. Everything lives or dies at the altar of the story. I just no longer pray there.
In a story, say, the hero has an unbreakable sword.
Of course, in Act 2, the sword has to break because, in Act 3 "What is the measure of the hero without their [item/power/etc...]?" (That's when I tap out)

I prefer Diablo I (or was it II?) when, when I put the gem to make the sword unbreakable... and it became... you know... unbreakable.
But, I'm slowly making my peace that I'm in the minority for this and that stories are no longer for me.
