In this thread, we will discuss our habits people would find weird. These habits are stuff that people won't call you a freak for doing but will still shake their heads at the actions. Just because the thread is for weird habits doesn't mean it'll excuse breaking the site rules. don't bother discussing anything that's rulebreaking. I'll start off this thread.
> Crushing aluminum cans with tires
I sell the aluminum can for the money I can get for them. Selling empty cans are more satisfying to me than throwing the cans away. Full-sized can't be stacked for long until they become a mess. To make things less cluttered, I crush the cans. Empty cans are not exactly stable when you try to stand on them. The most efficient way I've found is to crush the cans with my tires. First, I flatten the middle section of the can with my hands, and then I place them sideways under the wheels. Whenever I go out, I get four flat cans that are easier to store. Thankfully cans are not sharp enough to puncture tires.
>Spending time with cats
I like to hold my cats to show my cats I love them. My cats like to run around and are generally active, so sometimes it is hard just to be with them. Sometimes I hold my cat and meow at them. The cats don't understand why I meow at them, but I find it funny and hope they understand my affection for them. I try to let them go when they want to go, and it hurts sometimes.
>Communicating
When I communicate with people I am not close with sometimes I don't want an immediate response. Forced communication with professors or people I don't know makes me not want to look at my devices. I shouldn't overthink a simple email but I have at times.

I make up impersonations of my internet friends even if I've never heard. Sometimes, I repeat their mannerism and phrases to myself when I am bored and by myself. It makes me laugh and lessens the boredom.

I like to eat snacks. I got a bunch of imported ones that appear to be from Korea and Japan, so now I am eating pic related. It's a lot like Corn Nuts, which are one of my favorites, so that's nice. Earlier, I ate a box of Whoppers, and I've been on the lookout for Haribo Berries lately, because I like those. I'll post more if I have anything interesting, though I probably won't always have photos. What snacks are you eating?

I recently bought a Japanese/Korean exotic candy sampler pack and I regret my decision so fucking much because the candy contained within is something I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy. More than half of it tasted so horrendous but I kept sampling and sampling because eventually something decent will come up right? I reached this one candy which was made out of corn and also looked like a toy replica of a corn and the first bite into it I didn't think of it that much but the after taste sent me to throw up and so I threw all of it away. I stayed away from all sweets for a good while after that.

I tried the new Blue Hawaiian Monster Energy and it is an excellent flavor. The first time to me it tasted like a carbon copy of the Gold flavor to me. After a few cans, I grew fond of the blue and gold flavors I tasted. The taste has a relaxing feel for me. I'd recommend it if you are a fan of both the gold and blue monster flavors.

Never bothered with cheese curds because there was always a "stigma" attached to them, they "squeeked" also they where "curdled" but after trying them for the first time, clearly that was a mistake to avoid them.
There's no bad aftertaste, infact they just taste like slightly sharp mozzarella, and there's no "rubbery texture" or "squeek" at all. A good snack, just as good as mozzarella sticks and better tasting then regular sharp cheddar. Might make pouteen poutine with them.

This thread exists to explain to the anons browsing twentytwo on how to use the Japanese otaku video-sharing website Nico Nico Douga (Smile Video). So by the end of this I am hoping you will be able to upload videos, create mylists, and search for videos properly.
Nico Nico Douga's English variation platform was abolished recently although it wasn't really usable to begin with given how poorly it was maintained and nothing was explained to the user in the end.
I will also mention that the website best works with chromium based browser (I recommend ungoogled chromium, free of spyware) with Firefox there is tons of stuttering and slow loading times making it really unusable a lot of the times.

I will start off with Nico Nico Douga's Navigation Bar and explain what each of these tabs are.

https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/03/04/japan/crime-legal/dwango-fc2-top-court/

Today, U.S. based internet corporation FC2 officially lost the lawsuit against DWANGO after Japan's top courts, specifically the Second Petty Bench, rejected FC2's appeal of two separate rulings on July 2022 and May 2023.
Judges rule that, "If the patent has to lose its effectiveness only because the videos are distributed from abroad, the patent law cannot serve its purpose of contributing to the development of industry through the protection and promotion of inventions."
So, unless you're based in a country where such patent laws are not valid (PRC, for example), this means any attempts to bolster or have a comment system similar to that of niconico abroad, especially for commercial intentions like FC2, it is highly unlikely there will be any competitive platform that will have a similar comment system to niconico. You can also find a ton of comments and SNS posts congratulating DWANGO on the lawsuit victory, despite a lot of people's qualms about management's incompetent. I saw one ニコ厨 pleading bilibili to create a Japanese version of the website for them after the implosion that was niconico (ku)'s underwhelming press conference.

Actually, I was mistaken. I keep forgetting that Twitter has a huge issue with impression zombies, and most of the "positive towards DWANGO" posts are Indian/Pakistani botfarms attempts to gain revenue through these posts. There was even a song about this last year, and it seems to still be getting rather bad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_JDvWoCcJQ [Play]

This is the May 2023 appeal submitted by FC2's lawyers, and it mentions bilibili four times. It is likely though players like DPlayer or any commercial bilibili player with danmaku functionality are outside of the legal jurisdiction of Japan, and why they are still not sued by KADOKAWA-DWANGO.

https://nitter.poast.org/sigekun/status/1533297493626105857
In this post, even sigekun (Dwango COO, niconico representative) encouraged niconico users to report any danmaku comment add-ons and extensions, as they also infringe DWANGO's patents (this may also include Twitch's user-created danmaku extension). Some of the links to these add-ons posted in the replies were also taken down by KADOKAWA's IP lawyers.

Well, good news, apparently niconico staff are upping the audio bitrate limit to 576kbps, not quite lossless quality, but its better than the current 192kbps limit.
Still, it won't really rectify the damage on a ton of old "high audio quality" uploads that were encoded in 320kbps back in the day, as those have been permanently encoded to 160-192kbps, with the smile_high encodes completely wiped. Thanks, UNEI.

Video Overwrite Correction Campaign (Premium members only can participate)
https://blog.nicovideo.jp/niconews/244634.html
24-hour Overwrite Correction Submission Guidelines (Premium members only feature)
https://qa.nicovideo.jp/faq/show/19424

More information regarding submission of works that wish to take advantage of the high-quality audio feature. Note: High-quality audio option will not be available until around April 2025, and it is a premium-member only feature. If you attempt to upload a video with high quality audio, but it doesn't show up, you have 24 hours to correct your submission following the video submission guidelines to have your high-quality submission recognized.
If you wish to use the 576kbps feature, you must set the sampling frequency to 88.2kHz-96kHz.
Otherwise, your audio that is posted in PCM and FLAC will be converted to 320kbps (kind of like what this website does); although if you upload audio at 256kbps or higher, it will also upconvert it to 320kbps.
Side note: I had no idea niconico supported AV1 already, it was already one of the most requested technical features to add to niconico to ease the burden of storage space on niconico's servers and bandwidth for both dwango and the users, but it came at a cost of processing power since most devices did not support AV1 decoding until many devices that came out a few years ago to now and the future.

In this thread, we will discuss experiences we have outside. Today I was getting time outside because it feels like a healthy thing to do, and I saw four deer. Three of them were watching me while I was outside, and one of them was uninterested in me and walked off. One of the deers was sniffing the other one. Unfortunately, I didn't have a good camera to take a photo.

Around 2 pm today Suprise Ted kinda melted, he was too good for his world.
In other news it was like 6 inches of snow which is fucking insane for a place that hasn't got snowed in, in maybe 100 years. It was incredible, i haven't even felt snow before at all of seen it, besides in the movies and in games so it was really cool. I wish i could have gotten into a snow ball fight with someone, Couldn't find anyone so i just threw a couple at the wall. No one actually talks how hard it is to make a snowman or a snow ball, its so soft and you really have to compact that stuff. I also fell for the stupid meme of like, trying to roll that stuff into a big ball like the cartoons. Made a snow angel, stayed outside for damn near the entire day, drank hot coco, i'll never forget this experience.

The wind makes it less appealing to go outside. Wind+Rain makes the rain soak you and make you feel uncomfortable and wetter than you normally would. Rain can be manageable with jackets and umbrellas but the rain makes lessens the effectiveness of those items.

ITT: Books, Novels Short stories and anything related.
I was reading Killers of the flower moon recently and it was a good historical book. Secretly it was also a western thriller. (dispite it being nonfiction) It flipped perspectives to diffrent people which made it almost an anthology of sorts, and it was pretty refreshing to hear diffrent stories from diffrent people instead of a one sided narritive.
Another book i read was the irl adventures of a man exploring the wastes of chernobyle although i forgot the name it was a fun read, he was basically homeless and somewhat suffering but his willpower and attraction to the disaster is what kept him coming back over and over.

Early on, one of the situations that sets off the primary issues that kicks off the story is steriotypical terrorist durka durka allah akbar, porn enjoying, 72 virgin fucking muslum sandniggers who sets off a dirty bomb in their own country, then later the second time in america. I mean that literaly, the first bomb was set off by an autistic savant koran worshipping muslum who was given free porn by other muslums. the other bomb was set off by these two delerious muslums on a boat who pretty much set it off by accident put of sickness and mental retardation.

They were offended when I bought this land. They used to think of it as their own private hunting preserve.”“Tell me about the run-ins,” Jeff persisted.“We used to keep a hunting tent at the top of the canyon. After we asked them to stop trespassing, one of their clan broke into our equipment locker and crapped all over the handles.”Jeff lowered the binos. “They literally shit on your equipment locker?”Jason shrugged. “They’re rednecks. Down on their land, they’ve built a ghetto survival retreat—they’ve got foxholes, buildings made out of pallets, tripwires. It’s like a scene out of Deliverance.”“What did you do about them shitting on your locker?” Jeff drilled down.“We let it go. Eventually they quit coming over the mountain to hunt.”
This pissed me off, because they bought the land without even talking to the people that lived there and they most likely owned the land beforehand and got the land they owned pull out from under them, and yet they are a bunch of "inbred hicks"? fucking whatever man.
Jason’s answer made him feel self-conscious, like he had compromised his “man card” by not making the Beringers face consequences for their disrespect. By all accounts, Jason was a man’s man. Tall and broad of shoulder, he had taken care of himself, working out daily, lifting weights and completing a handful of half-ironman triathlons over the years. He had been an Eagle Scout and, since boyhood, he had spent a large chunk of his life in the woods. But even a “man’s man” felt self-conscious around Jeff Kirkham. No amount of civilized outdoorsmanship compared
with two-and-a-half decades living in the muck as a Green Beret.“Those Beringer people can’t stay,” Jeff concluded, not inviting discussion.“I’d like them gone, too, but they own that land. I don’t see how we can run them off their own land without inviting others to do the same to us.”“Where there’s a will, there’s a way.” Jeff handed back the binoculars with a blank smile. That smile made Jason uncomfortable. It implied gamesmanship. It hinted at a desire for a chess match, like something out of a Kipling novel, a penchant for cheating, a pleasure at defeating others through superior maneuvering. Nothing implied by that smile put Jason at ease with Jeff Kirkham. Jason was well aware that American Special Forces operators cheated. They fought at night with night vision and air support. They used technological advantage to win with grotesque dominance over the enemy. Top-tier Green Berets were often loaned to the CIA, where the deeds ran dark and deep. Jeff had almost certainly triggered foreign insurgencies by employing carefully set layers of intrigue and connivance. He had spent a lifetime in the mind-bending juxtaposition where an operator’s personal reputation and integrity among Americans was everything. That same operator would smile at a terrorist across the table, call him brother, use him like a dishrag, then radio in an air strike to kill him.During the decades Jeff fought for his country using every trick in the book, Jason built wealth and honed his ability as a leader of enterprise. He made a career out of full disclosure and fair dealing. He had been taught early on that virtue won most battles on the fields of commerce and had made a great deal of money through cooperation, collaboration and respect.Jason didn’t know the half of Jeff’s career, and he suspected Jeff had spent time within the shadowy elements of the United States government. Jason worried that the same subterfuge might someday be turned on him.He looked at Jeff for a long moment. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander. What befell the Beringers could easily befall the Ross family, Jason thought to himself.
And then after that there's a gigantic circlejerk on how cool jeff kirkham is, i actually feel sorry for the other author jason ross lmao. THIS IS JUST A DEVIANT ART FANFIC.

jung's biography is pretty funny. at one point he tried to hypnotise a client for in collage and things ended up getting trippy as fuck.
so before he could start the client put HERSELF under hypnosis before jung could start, and internally jung is freaking the fuck out because he has no fucking clue as to what in the goddamn is happening so he plays it straight because the other students and teachers are watching, everything works out and the client gives jung everything he needs to pretty much declare the client as sane and jung shouts "YOU SEE THIS IS THE POWER OF HYPNOTISM" to the onlooking students meanwhile internally he's happy it's finally over because he seriously could have been in hot water and probably kicked out.
also as a kid his bogeyman was the fucking jesuits, and whenever he saw a catholic preist he'd get frightend.

I remembered a qoute from fight club that has been running around in my head recently so i thought i'd find it, and post it here.

If you're male and you're Christian and living in America, your father is your model for God. And if you never know your father, if your father bails out or dies or is never at home, what do you believe about God?

What you end up doing is you spend your life searching for a father and God.

What you have to consider is the possibility that God doesn't like you. Could be, God hates us. This is not the worst thing that can happen.
