@ThanosReXXX Ohh damn! I really need to finish it. It took way too long! And I will start other projects after that.

Noted, good sir!

@Zuljaras Hm, other projects? Care to share them with us, or are you going to keep them a surprise for a little longer?

@Zuljaras see I was anti-social but the past 6 months I've really been getting out of the house to film stuff and now coronavirus ruined it. To be fair though I would rather stay home keep myself safe and the community safe than go outside like those protesters.

@ThanosReXXX Well after the cyclops I want to do Euryale. It is already chosen!

@Lucarianzx Absolutely true! I hear people telling other people that it is their choice to go outside and socialise. It is their freedom and right. I call it idiotism. Rights and Freedom must be forgotten in case of pandemic. By having their choice they endanger people who might be vulnerable to the virus. But they are not thinking like that and start to spread rumours about "Fake virus!", "Corona does not exist!" and "Government are lying to us about the pandemic!"

Such people need a kick in the teeth!

@Zuljaras So, ever since the cyclops it's all Greek mythology, then?
Mind you, I'm not complaining: I just LOVE Greek mythology, so besides Marvel, Greek mythology is also partially responsible for choosing the username that I did...

@ThanosReXXX The God of Death. Nice! I love ALL kind of mythologies but the Greek has a special place!

After that I will sculpt other things as well. I just need to improve my skills.

@Zuljaras Well, a derivative of it, obviously. Thanos is not directly referred to in Greek mythology, but the god named Thanatos, who's name has a similar meaning, does frequently appear.

@gcunit
I'm sorry but i will not break my promise to jailbreak the machine whatever its situation.
I have stopped playing with any jailbroken machines and pirated games since 2014.
1 year without pirated games and it changed my mind forever.

Actually i want to ask something.
I heard All Jailbroken 3DS machines (CFW) can be reverted back to Normal like it has never been jailbroken.
But i still questioning one thing.

Will my 3DS machine still safe after being reverted back to Normal and NOT get bricked when i access eshop (ex Jailbroken 3DS machine accessing eshop)?

This is one important question for me because actually i found a New 2DS XL PAL version from Tokopedia but the machines has been jailbroken with CFW luma (Aaaaagh...!!! 😫😠 I felt angry when i found the machine i wanted to buy but already cheated)

One thing. My PS3 Slim i bought last 29 December 2019 was actually an EX jailbroken PS3 but it has been reverted back to Normal and it was safe to access PSN page and got updates for my PS3 games.

I went through all of my kitchen cabinets and drawers after finishing work earlier. Needless to say quite a few things will be getting donated, given away, and recycled when I'm able to do so. That just leaves the inside of the stove; I haven't given the poor thing a good cleaning in a couple of years, though until a couple of years ago I didn't really use the oven that much. It isn't in terrible shape, but it's definitely due for a good scrubbing.

I did also sneak down to the school I've talked about before and managed to walk around on the pavement and their old sand track a bit. I'm not the only one taking advantage of how deserted the area is to exercise, but the other people are few and far between since the building is most easily accessed by vehicle or bike. It's sort of in the middle of nowhere even though it's barely in the town limits.

Doing my internet rounds now, then going to shower and spend some time yelling at my units and the RNG in Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright.

yeah i made 2 grocery runs myself and survived.
i think i made 6 people pass out due to covering my body with hand sanitizer. i mean body sanitizer.
you feel old?
im 40.
40 years young

@Tyranexx I consider Tokyo a place I love to visit but would not want to live there, for the same reasons. But I'd love to live in Kyoto or Osaka.

On another note, while the shrines and temples are definitely related to Shinto and Buddhism, religion in Japan is very very different than in the west. You'll see people in America all the time who say "I'm Catholic." or "I'm Muslim" or whatever they choose to identify as. But that very mindset is foreign in Japan. The only time I've ever had a Japanese person say "I'm Buddhist" was in comparing himself to westerners and trying to emulate that western style of identifying himself. Most Japanese people do practice Shinto and Buddhist traditions, but the identity aspect is totally different. To them, they're just Japanese and those traditions are Japanese traditions.

@ThanosReXXX I probably will take some new ones, assuming normal travel is ever allowed again.

Guys, i found a seller from Tokopedia have a New 2DS XL australia Pokeball edition ! 😀
But, the bad news was the machine has been hacked by CFW LUMA or whatever it called. 😕
The last firmware i saw from the photo i got was 11.6.0 - 39E
Is this the video about removing CFW from USA or PAL region ?

@Anti-Matter If you hard reset it I think the LUMA will be gone. Reset to factory settings will probably remove the hack as it is software only. Just like on the PS3.

If someone here could answer of the factory reset removes the hack.

I am also looking for a NEW 3DS but USA region

@Anti-Matter I'm no expert on 3DS hacking, but I just follow the instructions at 3DS.hacks.guide and it's served me well. Not sure how long ago I hacked mine, probably 1-2 years ago, but I've not had any problems. I don't really use online stuff much on 3DS, but I can buy things on the eshop fine and when I've tried a bit of online multiplayer with Mario Sports it didn't give me any issues.

Do you guys know the Jumping Flash series of games for the original Playstation? It's 3 really unique 3D platformers... in first person. It seems unusual at first but they're actually very playable. Your jump reachs pretty far, sometimes it seems you're aren't gonna make it to a far platform but you can! The first game was released in '95, a year before Mario 64.

The third game (Robbit Mon Dieu) was never released in the west, unfortunately.

I finished watching some Mega 64, and damn do they have some good sketches. Anybody looking for something to watch that's gaming related this quarantine I would definitely recommend Mega 64.

@ogo79 ...I guess you win in the age department. Time seems to pass pretty fast for me most of the time these days. I'm told that doesn't get any better as we get older lol.

@Heavyarms55 I think Kyoto and Osaka, from what you've described, would definitely be closest to my speed. I believe I've touched upon why earlier, so I won't repeat that again. XD

Interesting how religious identities are treated differently in Japan. I was under the impression that a lot of the Shinto and Buddhist aspects were rooted in tradition and mythology there. So they're more traditional and not really rooted in a "Hey, we're doing this because I'm X?"

(Might not be describing that in the best way. Suffering from severe morning brain today....)

anyone play fast RMX online ?

@Heavyarms55 That's fine by me. We'll all be in the same boat more or less for some time to come, so no pressure.

Just out of curiosity: did you add your reply to me as an edit after you posted the comment to Tyranexx?
I'm asking because I didn't get a notification that you had replied to me. This has happened a couple of times before, and I'm always wondering how the heck that happens, but if you edited your original comment, then it makes sense, because people tagged in edited comments are not notified, so that would explain it.

Play against CPU if you cannot find someone playing online.
