/late/ - Late Nights

Figured that since this thread is for anime-related stuff, maybe discuss visual novels as well? 
What are you reading, /late/non? 
I'm almost done with Subahibi and reading the second episode of Umineko.

>>3392
Better late than never :)

>>3392
Finished Inside Mary. God, I love that coming out of age feeling in Shuzo Oshimi's manga. This longing is difficult to convey in words. Probably gonna be reading more of his stuff.

no game no life is always a fun watch, its damn criminal that season 2 is never ever

>>3414
what part of it do you consider fun, exactly, apart from looking at the female mc's panties?

DEATH TO ALL BEAKIES
THROW ALL BEAKIES INTO THE EYE OF TERROR

Mine died a month ago. It didn't come unexpected but I still can basically think of nothing else. The death was very sudden.

It hurts like a bitch

Yeah, it does.

my condolences anons. I find that having another cat helps with grieving and moving on. Just don't think of the new one as replacement, but a new member of the family.

>>3099 (OP) 
my younger cat died around may, i got them to give my first one company, it was hard to see them go, but the first one is still there and I need to be there too.

please refrain from generating this type of content, there is enough of that already out there
thank you

>>1803
it's more like a parody of it tho

after being here awhile after the site shutdown and i think i've lost interest in /late/ a little bit
seems like this place absorbed some of trashchans culture instead of developing its own over time

>>3381
That's not surprising considering it's not on its own domain anymore.

>>3381
I'll admit, came here for the migration, but mostly pop in from the overboard anymore. Summer nights are still my favorite and I'll definitely pop in when it's too hot to sleep -_-!

>Only good thing is eating bread with some soothing tea in your thermos whilst the wind coos outside.
Sounds comfy!

>What about you anon?
Well it's finally tapering off the long stretch of 100-110+ temp days now, and it's pretty comfy-cool at nights. So yeah, nice time of year.

>>2494
>If none of you have ever been winter camping, its worth it
Yeah I've done that many times, it's the best.

>just make sure you have the proper gear.
Ehh, doesn't take much tbh.

*  STAY HYDRATED!111!!ONE!!!  Winter can be exceedingly dry, so you can dehydrate w/o really noticing it -- especially if you're exerting yourself (like climbing up hills).
*  LAYERS  If it's frigid, just bring a bunch of socks, shirts, pants to add more layers.
*  BOOTS  It's very important to keep your feet warm & dry. Have good wool socks on hand. BTW, if you lose feeling in your toes, YOU'RE HAVING A MEDICAL EMERGENCY...
Deal with it immediately!!
*  High-calorie nommies like chocolate trail mix is essential for comfy times in the wilderness.
*  Hot choco or other nice beverages, too (see above).
*  Strictly limit alcohol. None at all is even better.  :)
*  A good hunting knife. Essential for every man anyway, so yeah.

I wasn't looking forward to fall or winter last year, and I'm definitely not looking forward to it this year. I really dislike the climate I live in.

poorfag so can't heat my house, gotta put hot water bottles in my sleeping bag to sleep

>>2501
solid advice anon

Last year, again, I was bushcrafting much more in the winter for some reasons.
Had a period when I was going out with someone every week in the winter, sometimes doing drugs, sometimes just enjoying the detachement from the world of people hidden in their warm homes, far away from our forest

>>3130 (OP) 
>It took quite some time to figure out how to compile this (old) version.
Why do you bother with an old version?

Is luanti really worth it? They killed minecraft somewhere around version 1.9, but still?

Whenever radio anon gets around to it, really. He's a busy man, so who knows. If all else fails, figure out how to host it yourself.

>it's still ded
if you want to spend $5 on a VPS and 20 minutes setting it up it shouldn't be that hard. i'm a cheap bastard though

way i do it i try to be more social which taught me to be more outgoing but forced me to be more selective at the same time, so now i regularly chad with old neighbors, or relatives on the phone
i also took time to think about what i would enjoy reading or watching (old media), and always try to set up a comfy environment so that i don't want to get up and check my phone
this in turn inspired me to start writing to prepare some pathfinder campaigns im planning to try this summer

what helped me the most was mentally preparing myself to not be available for x time, like
>after dinner im reading for 1 hour then off to bed
>tonight ill sleep early so that tomorrow morning ill spend 2 hours sunbathing
>saturday morning i have to try out this new romhack i downloaded
always telling myself that after im done i can check my phone and whatnot, this reduced my smartphone usage so much i only have to charge it once a week now kek

>>3246
This sounds like some real wisdom. I hope I can manage something similar for my computer usage now.

>this reduced my smartphone usage so much i only have to charge it once a week now kek
Excellent. GG, Anon.  :)

Actually scratch that. I live my life in computers, where I go by the hacker alias Not-4chan, and am guilty of practically every computer thingy there's a software driver for...

The problem is me wasting time with my old ways...instead of focusing on the far-brighter future coming down the pike very soon! They tell me 'old habits are hard to break'. I think I can break free from the dreamworld though!!  :DD

>>3243
It's a little scary to me how addicted people are.

>You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inert, so hopelessly dependent on the system that they will fight to protect it.

How do we go back?  Top heh.  The problem is much bigger than the black mirrors: it's 21 years' worth of accumulated brain damage from addiction to socmed, etc.  It's normies in general being no smarter or wiser or moral than the dirt-farming peasants they've been for thousands of years— now networked and equipped with cameras so that the world can have non-stop feeds of public displays of baboonery.

The better question is of how things can ever get better, because going back simply isn't an option, and the answer is probably something spergy like "a natural aristocracy arises and forms parallel institutions which gradually replace the current decrepit, corrupt institutions."

That, or a giant solar flare EMPs the whole planet back to the 1930s.  People won't be getting any wiser, but circumstances can still take the attractive nuisances from their hands.

Heh. Once everything knowlege-stored -related is merely a Romanian Database, then the GH-kikes will have lost the major tool in their war against the world today. Ofc, that bodes ill for the rest of us during Current Year, as well.
>tl;dr
Amazing what a little Carrington Event can do between frens!  :DD

OTOH
God still 'has the whole world in his hands tonight'. [1][2]  Nothing occurs without his involvement. Satan and his best little shabbos golems won't be able to pull any fast ones on Him!!  :^)

For the non-devout, you can take comfort in the fact that their systems are only here by geologic/astronomic """consent"""!  :D

>>3214 (OP) 
Campfire? Sodium lighting? Do you see flicker in it, or is it steady, Anon?

>>3214 (OP)  update??

>>3214 (OP) 
arson attempt?? anon did you contact the police

>>3217 apparently just some drunkards have been acting up in the area, playing with flammable substances, nothing special

though did look creepy

It look like an orb.

Time is a scary monster.
My daily prayers help me get a grasp on it but as soon as I open a book or start working on something or start thinking time just dips.

>>2679 (OP) 
>What do you guys do before going to bed?
I turn off my PC and take medication. Sometimes, I work out. While in bed, I feel myself dip toward dreams as my mind wanders as a form of hypnagogia, so I try to think about pleasant or interesting things or nothing at all. It doesn't always work, and I have something like Exploding Head Syndrome when I feel myself going into dreams I know will be bad.
>Do you guys sleep well?
I only sleep well when I'm exhausted, drunk, sick, or injured. I think my bed is part of why I have this problem. I haven't had a consistently comfortable bed in years. I would be more comfortable sleeping on the ground or floor. When I wake up, I've forgotten who I am and feel free until I remember my responsibilities. With these responsibilities comes remembrance of who I am and what I have and done, and I'm suddenly pulled by a suffocating weight. At least my dreams are sometimes entertaining.
>I'm just thinking my own thoughts and I can't fall asleep
I have this issue when I'm on my back, yet I sleep best and have the most pleasant dreams when I'm tired enough to sleep that way.

can  you tell me what you like about them ?
im not an avid reader so i just stick with tolkien, i love how heavy it is on the world building, it got several cool ages all in the same world

also every character seems to be written as an archetype that needs to mature and overcome some flaw
>bilbo needs to overcome fear in the hobbit, then greed in lotr
>merry needs to mature and learn to face consequence
>boromir needs to be in control of his unyellding loyalty to gondor so it doesn't tempt him to take the ring
>faramir needs to grow out of his brother's shadow by fighting a temptation that got the better of boromir
>elrond needs to accept change and be more trusting towards men
etc etc
it is so densely packed with symbolism and morality
