Serial Experiments lain is my favourite anime, so I’d definetly recommend watching more… but if it’s just not for you it’s not going to click. For me, I enjoyed the anime already from the first few minutes and watched the whole thing on the edge of my seat in a single night.

Even when I didn’t understand anything on my first watch, I still enjoyed the visuals, audio, unique direction and storytelling, and really liked trying to make sense of it all and thinking about everything I just saw between episodes. Plus I could relate a lot to lain. But it’s definetly not for everyone.

Except it is just scatting. The leekspin version and the Miku version of the song is just the scatting parts of the Loituma arrangement. The full Loituma version, Korpiklaani version or one of the many recorded versions from Finnish folk singers have the actual lyrics. They do actually include a scatted part, usually after every verse, but Loituma atleast extended it for a full verse of scatting, which the Miku version made into a full song.

For the record, the lyrics are about the main character of the song dancing polka with the girl he loves (Ieva), whose “proper” and religious parents don’t approve of the mc or dancing in general. So after they dance and go home, the mom of Ieva catches them and makes Ieva cry, the mc threatens the mom to leave them alone and professes his love for Ieva. Then they go on to dance more polka. It’s great.

oliivi (Finnish)

yea, she’s in a fetal position and surrounded by machinery all around her. it probably symbolises her being pure and natural juxtaposed to the computers around her, or (spoilers)

or something else, idk, the outro probably has multiple interpretations because it’s lain, so of course it would have.

but like yea, nudity != sexualization.

Which appid? 'cause one of the unknown appid’s Valve was working on is a Deadlock private testing server (yes, the game in invite-only alpha has a private alpha that is even more restricted.)

wait, it isn’t normal?

Finland: only had it a couple of times 'cause it’s expensive, and takes long and is tedious to make, but loimulohi (fire salmon). It’s salmon nailed to a plank and then heated up by an open fire. Very tasty.

Pretty much any big enough fish can be made like that, but I’ve only had salmon.

Time II by Wintersun. It was a long wait, but I’d almost call it worth it, 'cause the album is so good.

the only thing i knew about him was that he was in a Nightwish song (The Greatest Show On Earth), so i kinda liked him before (didn’t hear of the islamophobia or anything else), but uhh… not anymore.

honestly, i disagree. i really don’t see the big problems with the ending. i actually even like it.

the library (called a tesseract in the movie) is constructed by the future humans, who have control of 5d space, and who include Murphy, who actually lived in the room connected to the tesseract. it’s built to look like that, so Cooper, a 3d being, can actually understand it. it’s basically stretching out time and gravity into a 3d space. the library is not something the black hole made up because Cooper loves Murphy (which i thought what happened on my first watch), it’s what the future humans made with the help of the black hole. love ties thematically into it, 'cause Cooper loves and knows Murphy so well, he knows how to tell her the quantum data from the black hole, or something. and Cooper, or the future humans for that matter, can’t say or do anything directly, 'cause in the past, they’re only able to affect gravity (and because of the construction of the tesseract, Cooper can only control the gravity of that one room.) the reason for why the future humans don’t go just directly do it themselves is explained as them not being able to pinpoint a specific space, or time for it, which is why Cooper, who can traverse the tesseract for a specific point in time and space in that room to tell Murphy the quantum data, which allows the future humans to do all of the crazy 5d stuff.

anyway, sorry for the rambling. Interstellar is my favourite movie, and i really love even the ending of it. multiple scenes, including the ending, make me bawl like a baby, like no other movie has done to me, and i love all the hard sci-fi it has. sci-fi so hard, that physicists learned something new about black holes, because of the equations used to make the black hole cgi in it.

i disagree on atleast one movie: Interstellar. it is absolutely devastatingly emotional, atleast for me.

the scenes where Cooper sees his kids growing up without him after coming from the water planet, and the ending sequence when he goes into the black hole and the tesseract will never not make me bawl out like a baby.

Am I the only one who actually likes Proton? Maybe I’d take the tab style and the circle back button from Photon, but everything else I really like about Proton.

Huh, Pilvi (Cloud) is a completely valid, if modern, name in Finland. We have pretty strict naming laws here too.

Play enough Dota 2 and you’ll find them soon enough

Atleast in Finland, a gay person who hates immigrants.

Neither is sway

Peeling apples is not nornal??

If Deadlock is coded anything like Dota 2, it might be a problem with the game. Dota 2 has had the problem you’re describing for years on both Linux and Windows. Haven’t encountered Deadlock being as bad, but might still be the case. Or it’s something with proton.
