@fuchi Ah, okay. I feel it would be from context more than anything. In everyday chitchat different dialects/accents can throw people off. So context can help to avoid confusion. I would think it be the same in songs. I think I had my fill of Chinese songs for a bit after this post.

Almost midnight and I'm still locking myself at the library. I guess shit got real.

Do you mean on how the vocal flow? If you mean that, I have to say I noticed it too. Sometimes its pretty damn glaring to the point that I have to say that Cantonese isn't much of a singing language. Its like a smooth-cut, smooth-cut rapidly one after another. However most of the time its not that bad. Not sure how non-Cantonese people feel though. A Cantonese song (Same folks as my first two videos in this page) and a Japanese song for rough comparison since MTH is quite something. I really haven't notice much snags with Japanese singing. Japanese just really flows. Hell, Mandarin flows better than Cantonese does. Also, this MTH video really tripped me up. Its odd hearing them singing like that for the first half, which is like a good deal how most Japanese/Asain songs can sound. Last note: I also have no idea what the Cantonese folks are singing about 75% of the time. Even my mom has some trouble and she is far better than me in Cantonese. When I listen to music, I really go off how they "feel" if I don't understand the song. They could be singing about the worst stuff imaginable but if it sound and feels good, I will like.

Its the only fun part.

I want a silly game to play. Tokyo Jungle... how do you folks like it?

And when you start putting items on your animals to buff stats, you'll be hard pressed not to laugh. I had a cat with a "hip hop bandana" and cat-foot booties, and a golden retriever with a sentai hero mask, scarf, and a plush "Kuro" doll riding him (from Dokodemo Issho)

But... WAIT FOR YOUR SIBLINGS. They're your extra lives, and you can lose them on terrain if they fail to path. Also, don't be surprised if you don't actually have them because they died in a fight before you did, despite not being told to fight.
-
Tokyo Jungle will be free on PS+ in the next 6 months, I'm waiting for that.
-
Despite my earlier comments, it doesn't mean I don't like rap/hip hop. One of these songs should be familiar to some of you guys.
-
I seem to have lost permission to 95% of my media/music files. Last time I fixed it rather easily but this time its not letting me use them.

Although that's assuming you're on Windows. What's your OS?
-
What Ethan said... also, time to back up! (unless you already have a better backup and can only do one at a time. I've lost data from backing up just before/as a drive failed.)
-
I am Admin on Windows 7. This is why I am so confused.
Also I guess its is about time to back that drive up. It has been years.

I see that the video follows who the West recongize that govern China. Notice how it was under ROC until the 1970's. In reality PRC had it since the late 1940's.
-
Score. Cantonese music isn't just all pop songs or hip hop. Now if only one exist that is like Blind Guardian but is based around the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. That would be totally badass. Edit: Guess the fuck what? Chinese symphonic power metal. This is towards stuff like Symphony X or Rhapsody of Fire. I'm getting close.
-
Might as well try to make the flavor powder.

-
Well, in the end though, I expect heads to roll especially if jobs are tied to stuff. like Metalcritic. This is terrible for such a major franchise.
-
Ah yeah, this shit. Yes, whenever someone else do something, it totally involves me because we are related somehow. The folks that did these riots really have to grow up. If I follow their line of thinking, I would be hating on while devils, communists and Japs. The sins of the individual is their owns. It involves no one else but that bastard that did it.

WTF is UPS Mail Innovations? Oh glob, its part of UPS Supply Chain Solutions. My part will/should get to me but it'll be tons of drama on UPS part.
-
Actually, correction, Cayanne is not like the Eclipse. Its more like the Photon. I dream of such a thing that it made me make that typo.
-
Yeah, the Photon. I'm just unsure if I should since I'll be using this phone for two years. So I do want to have more top specs for the rest of the year. I heard about Sprint maybe having the Eclipse which seems to be the top of the line at the moment. At the time, the Epic was one of, if not the largest smartphone in the market. It also had one of the best specs. The keyboard was one of the biggest thing that drew me to the phone though. I use my keyboard on my Epic a ton for email and well, internet usage. A fair share of my posts on here are from my phone. So I guess I am a bit iffed that I don't have that situation now. Edit: There seems to be another slide phone coming from LG called Cayenne. It should come out this year. Somewhat similar to the Photon (Corrections, not the Eclipse).
-
Is a smartphone having a slide keyboard such a niche market? Is thickness really worst than wideness? I see no phone with recent recent tech with a slide keyboard and my upgrade time is pretty much here. I could wait til the holidays but even by then there won't be a new slide phone coming out for Sprint.
-
At this point, I just don't know since none of the tests and checks tell me anything of value. So I'm taking a stab in the dark. I can't be dicking around with my time running tests so I guess I'll choose the SSD to replace first since its my main suspect... if not the SSD, mobo. If those two doesn't fix it then this: fuck.
-
After some though, I'm replacing the mobo despite Memtest86+ showing nothing. If the mobo doesn't do it, I'm replacing the RAM. I'm reasoning that its not my SSD because dskchk shows up nothing. Also it shouldn't be the SSD fault that my mobo cannot detect the SSD at times, even in the middle of Windows install. My wallet will be damned to hell. The only thing right now is if it is a good idea for me to replace the stuff now. I hardly got time to play any games but I do need a computer. I got a laptop back at my folks which can be shipped...
-
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^THIS SHIT^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ It managed to blow my mom's account for the time when she paid my internet portion when she was in town. Another thing I see as odd is that it seems that some of the checks I gave to my roommate hasn't been deposited. Hell, I think some of them even expired. I just might ask to deposit the stuff myself. A little extra effort on my part but I know when these money will go out.
-
Maybe I should live without a gaming PC for now. My productivity went up without one. Alas, I need a computer and I lent out my laptop to my folks... and yup, still fixing. I may just say fuck it and replace everything.
-
Points taken. More or less, yeah. If I stagger it a bit though, I can keep on going. Or. Knife a bit then run. Cue Benny Hill. I feel like the SP equivalent of a CoD kiddie who goes knife only. Gunplay wise. Its sort of annoying that I land a few headshots and they still doesn't go down. I suppose its for the betterment of the gameplay. Now, what I find to be really annoying is this: You see a "dead" body but shooting it does nothing but when you walk up to it, it'll come back alive despite filling it with lead 3 feet back. So screw us slow and careful players.
-
Swordsman II I believe I seen number one before and perhaps III but I don't remember much. However, II is fantastic imo. Right kind of action scenes.
-
From what I am told, this first song is actually pretty damn old. Well the core instrumentals. Showing this versions since it has the best of all worlds plus another fine song.
