I'll hit the sheets now.


So long and thanks for all the fish
So sad that it should come to this
We tried to warn you all that your dead
You may not share our intellect
Which might explain your disrespect
For all the natural wonders that
grow around you
So long, so long and thanks
for all the fish
The world's about to be destroyed
There's no point getting all annoyed
Lie back and let the planet dissolve(around you)

It looks like her legs are alternately kicking back an forward, but if you look closely it's just her left leg that's always up front.
If you look at her feet then it looks like the left and right leg are continuously swapping position, but if you think about it, that would be plain impossible.

Oh the wonders of visual extrapolation of the human mind.

It's just a GIF that repeats at that point. Most of those aren't so well-thought-out as to be more fluid.
 
Speaking of Murica, my post count is 1776!

I never really liked Cirrus Logic's DACs. Sabre is the new Wolfson of today's era. XD

I'd say go after Saber.
 

Really? I enjoy Cirrus Logic for its detail and cleanliness a lot. But Sabre has excellent timbre and sports a good mix between the squeaky clean CL and the thicker Wolfson chips

These are in generaltieis of course.

I like the timbre of Sabre DACs more; they're more accurate to me in that regards. Cirrus Logic does tend to have more detail, but they're more coloured from my experience. P-H uses a Cirrus DAC, no? I don't like its timbre compared to the ODAC or Geek Out.

Yeah same for the Sabre. 
 
But in terms of coloration, it depends really. There are a lot more audiopphile used Sabres than there are CL's. Most audiophile units use the CS4398 and rarely anything else.

I set your luscious Saber image as my wallpaper. =D
 
Perhaps I'm mixing things up, but aren't Sabre DAC cards analytical, yet aggressive? (I know they're used in the HiFiMAN HM-901 DAP.)

People say that yes, but it depends on how it was implemented, what they're comparing it to, and how they compared it. I tend to disagree with what others say upon doing volume-matched A/B tests with other DACs of other brands.

I wouldn't say analytical. CL's are a bit more analytical in my opinion. 
 
I think I'm gonna get a HM-901 in to play around with.

If either of you happen to have compared the Calyx M to the iBasso DX90, I'd be interested in your impressions, as I am debating whether to go for the more expensive model.

Making real okonomiyaki is a nightmarish mess.

You also need all these special ingredients like the sauce and bonito flakes.

Rather expensive :|

Messy? Really?
All I have to clean afterwards is a mixing bowl, a peeler, a grater, and a cutting board. And I'm talking light cleaning.

Now if you're gonna like put shrimp on there, and you need to clean and devein shrimp, whole new ball game.

It is a bit expensive if you don't already have stuff on hand. But you can make many okonomiyaki with the specific ingredients not usually on hand for Japanese cooking. And the flakes and the sauce last at least a year so it can be used for another day of okonomiyaki.

I like it in the winter. Sooo perfect.

Ha, I'm going through my music library and I found this album.


Love this guy, hahaha.



^ reminds me of Sheldon Cooper from the Big Bang Theory, except this video predates that show

Chinese people love this guy.... :beerchug:

His falsetto voice is so brilliant! <3

Good to see someone with some self confidence, I mean really!

As for my own clones, I am not so sure. Not that I am against it, but I wonder if 20 of myselves could get along let alone 1000 folds of that! Still intrigued by the idea; the aspect that fascinates me is how bunch of me's would react to social agendas as a group of people vs individuals. Wonder if there is an anime/manga/light novel that relates to something like that?
 
In the meantime, I am really enjoying the Jinsei anime. Has all the proven cliche stuff in it, but manages to be unique enough to be interesting. Good character design, the whole expert panel in different disciplines thing works pretty well for a lighthearted comedy setting. The best part about it is though, Ikumi! The cutest, funniest and the dumbest of the bunch!
 
I was told it is turning out to be a moderate success in terms of ratings and such. But hey, maybe it's just me again. Kitakubu didn't fare well at all netting a grand total of 0.795 FRT in BD/DVD sales, yet I liked it more than the most aired that season. Go figure!

Jinsei is fine, I like that meganekko, forgot her name orz.
And I really like Kitakubu :D
 
   
It's funny on so many levels. I guess it wasn't sardonic enough for your tastes.
 
You should love this, though: I got blocked out of the Abyss thread due to my relentless enthusiasm.

Aww, I missed the drama =_=
