  • I get why folks who are more involved in their devices or prefer more customization may not like Apple products, but a lot of people just see them as a device to connect to the internet or write papers etc. and that’s about it. Folks like Apple because it works for them.

    Right, and I don’t get why this is so hard to grasp, if questions like OP are in good faith.

    More often than not it’s just to start circlejerking with the same argument over and over.

    I never owned Apple product but have tried it once for trial purpose, its my sister’s iPhone something a few years back before covid. I nearly barfed, not because it’s a bad hardware but because it’s just not for me.

    So for me its still Android, and google make it more and more irritating but we don’t have other options don’t we?






  • This is just silly, but I’ll chime in I guess.

    I’m guessing you only ever deal with public trackers om the torrent sode of things.

    Since I’m on private trackers (someone with usenet subs probably feel the same) the quality and moderation is far better than the streaming sites.

    Also, I’m off the legit streaming sites like Netflix because I’m tired of them shoving things I do not care.

    Setting it up the first time is a hassle but nowadays, I’ll just open up my Seer instance and that’s it. This inclide movies, shows, and anime. I don’t hoard.

    I know it’s available cuz there will be a notification for it, most just a few hours after the broadcast at most.

    I just open JF and watch it, idk what’s more convenient than that.

    I don’t count since I do not care about stats. But my whole family use it. Shows/movie for my parents, k-drama/anime for me and sibling.









  • Ooh, nice. It’s rare to see another SEA-an around this part.

    aligned with people who doesn’t grow up with it.

    Oh, yeah I agree. What I’m trying to say is that someone with an entirely different set of culture (foods) already has a predetermined set of palate of what kind of taste to expect, so even if they power through the initial smell they just more likely to dislike it cuz it resemble nothing they usually consume.

    Another example i can give is smelly tofu

    I would take a guess that we’re probably neighbours country. I haven’t taste smelly tofu in particular, but I can imagine the smell. The by-products of the normal one would make anyone gag, this one probably just straight up has the sewage aroma because of the aging and what not.

    petai/stink

    The bathroom situation is what makes me hate it. I wouldn’t refuse if offered but never choose it myself.

    So i feels like, unlike cilantro

    Funny, I can’t stand cilantro. I don’t think I even has the “soapy” taste gene. It just taste like random grass to me and everytime I accidentally taste it I thought “this ain’t human food” lol. The brain is fascinating, huh.


  • Are you natives?

    I am, and I concluded it (obviously) cultural. We didn’t as familiar with different varieties of cheese, so the stinky cheese (don’t remember the name) have absolutely foul smell to me.

    On the other hand, most never even questioned that durian smell is just that, durian and nothing to overcome. It doesn’t register as something nasty to the point where someone who actually didn’t like it usually seen as the weird one ( also cuz it’s considered expensive fruit)

    And to answer OP question, it tasted creamy as in dairy to me but I don’t like dairy products besides yogurt so I maybe wrong.



  • I adore this game. Pretty unique magic system (needed for late game) and mechanics and interesting characters to follow.

    It’s an absolute grind-fest but I grew up with it so I’m used to it by now.

    I wish Atlus or whoever holds the IP make a new entry with it.

    If you find an account with a “Leimrey” username in the wild, there’s a great chance it’s mine cuz I always used that up until my highschool day.
