Re: Reincarnate - AMA (might as well)
Just so it doesn't get ignored. I actually look forward to your response.

However, I probably wouldn't have it in me to keep going with either cubing or keyboard rhythm gaming. I've already spent far too many years on both. Cubing is boring to me now and I have zero interest in picking it back up again. I felt like once I hit the lower teens in speedsolving, improvements became more reliant on lucky runs/skipped steps/or just learning a shitload more algorithms, which felt more tedious than skill-based. Stuff like Stepmania is always fun, but I think the lack of good stepcharts over the past few years is a huge turnoff. Files just aren't what they used to be. Too many BRRRTTTBRRRTT-BRR-t-t-t hypergrind dumps and not enough fun, well-stepped charts to enjoyable music. I don't enjoy feeling like I'm just playing variants of MIHC all day. Files don't have to be difficult to be awesome. Badlands, for instance, is one of my all-time favorite files and it's relatively easy MA fodder. |

How do you find the time to do work and also have adequate free time?

Re: Reincarnate - AMA (might as well)
Metaphorically speaking, Would you agree or disagree that being awake or alive in general involves code computed energy under laws space/time working incomposite to the actual sense of being 'alive' which by nature would require sleep to access dreams. In other words, wouldn't life to death just be an example of dreaming just to wake up? Tell me what you think!

3x3x3: I wanna say like 11-12 seconds or so? Blindfolded, 45 seconds memorization + execution.
2x2x2 I almost rarely messed around with and don't remember any of my times. I think poetry is cool because it's so inherently multifaceted, much like, say, literature or film. It can have a variety of intentions and goals, and many methods of expression. I like poetry that doesn't try too hard to be obfuscatory nonsense. Oftentimes, I see a poem get a reputation of being "deep" when it's really just indistinguishable from a few vague, bullshitty statements tossed together. Instead, I prefer poems that focus on enhancing its message through the sound of the language/words used. I'm more of a "surface-level aesthetics" guy when it comes to poetry, since I think the whole "make a poem about something deep and meaningful" side tends to be obnoxious. Almost everyone I've met who focuses on the latter category tend to be those annoying philosophy nuts who are really just solipsists in disguise. Descartes can go **** himself. Right now? Breaking Bad, hands down. It's very well-written and the characters are masterfully-crafted. Cranston is amazing. I made a special effort to find work that has reasonable hours. I place a huge premium on having free time. Nowadays, it doesn't require much effort to balance the two, unlike college. Last edited by devonin; 09-17-2012 at 08:51 AM.. |

Re: Reincarnate - AMA (might as well)
Whoops, forgot this one.
Hmmm, hard to choose just one. I enjoy talking to a lot of people for a variety of different reasons. Overall I think I spend the most time talking to guys like Reach, darkshark, Halogen, leonid, Tasselfoot, plus a lot of the guys who used to go on Kong regularly, etc -- but there are too many to mention honestly. There are a great deal of cool people to talk to from the community. Last edited by Reincarnate; 09-17-2012 at 08:21 AM.. |

Re: Reincarnate - AMA (might as well)
Thoughts about Quebec vs Canada?
Favorite animal? Best moment on FFR?

2. Probably cats/dogs -- I'm boring. XD 3. AAA'ing Crowdpleaser. It was something I always used to think was "obviously impossible" until a bit of experimentation proved otherwise. Quote:
I also identify closely with darkshark in terms of the desire to constantly self-improve/succeed. I've watched his progression over time and it's pretty inspiring stuff. Every time I see him post some random two-hour artistic ditty on Facebook that is like ten times better than anything I could ever make in six months, it's a powerful reminder to me to break away from my day-to-day grind to focus on learning/doing something creative/fun.

Re: Reincarnate - AMA (might as well)
Got ninja'd by a few hours but yes Toonami is back.
However, it is the exact same as Adult Swim every Saturday, only with the Toonami name/theme instead of the adult swim theme. Exact same shows + 1 or 2 new dumpy ones |

Re: Reincarnate - AMA (might as well)
Agreed, I almost regret sending in that long email about bringing back toonami. At least they did manage to put some newer stuff on there. It seems like they are limited to airing only dubbed / licensed anime so the selection isn't that great.
