New Poll - The Waiting Game
(25 posts, 292 views) Posted: 10d 3h, 55m ago by lynira in News
Now that I've taken a few courses in Japanese, I'm forcing myself to only read the original version (so I guess option #1 fits my situation best)... It's kind of a chore, because my vocabulary is still very small, so I have to look up a ton of words in t ...

Problem with Searching with Categories that have Apostrophes
(1 posts, 86 views) Posted: 10d 23h, 13m ago by lynira in Suggestions & Bugs
The database tends to have some problems with apostrophes and quotes (for example, if you search for a series name in quotes in Series Info, you can't see past page 1). Unfortunately, I can't think of any work-around for the problem you're ...

"Status in Country of Origin" Additional Info
(12 posts, 391 views) Posted: 10d 23h, 52m ago by lynira in Suggestions & Bugs
I'm not wholly opposed to the idea (it only adds a few extra characters to the status, so I don't see much of a problem--except for series with many editions, where it could get pretty crowded), but isn't it much easier to just check the "com ...

New Poll - RPG Class
(43 posts, 1091 views) Posted: 31d 6h, 18m ago by lynira in News
I guess I would pick like this: 1st choice: mage 2nd choice: cleric 3rd choice: archer
Mage is the one I'd most want to pick, and probably most suitable for me (I mostly study or read, not into sports...) Magic is way more fun than weapons. Also, you get both long-r ...

New Poll - Manga and Real-Life Friends

Yes, a few of my close friends know I read manga (all of them happen to read manga too). But we don't talk about it much, mainly because I hate talking about specific series' details (like story and characters... the reason is kind of complicated, so I w ...

Disabled Children - Abortion?

Quote from Voodoodude We are all living on the whims of others, or luck, that we're not a part of a mass shooting, an accident, or something else. That might be true, but in no way does it mean that killing innocent people is okay.

Quote from Erazen So, age 0 and before: the development of the human fetus. The only thing that certainly defines me for a person now is my *potential* to become a fully developed person, i.e. the human genome and my existence as an organism. No, that' ...

Random Questions "Attempt II"

Recently, I tried a Japanese sweet called higashi (it is mostly sugar, compressed into a pretty shape, like a flower or leaf), and they were so good that I want to make my own. I did manage to make a batch, but they're not quite right. I've tried looking up ...

No, I could never consider doing something like that. It can't possibly be the right thing to do if it involves killing a helpless and innocent person, especially if that person is just a child. Such killing of innocent people should be prevented by the law. ...

Well... I'm going to say yes, although I've modified the question a bit (I'm ignoring the single publisher part). The reason is that I'm thinking of companies that sell digital manga (currently, it's per volume prices), such as ebookjapan, re ...

Hmm, interesting poll. If I went to Japan, I'd definitely want to go to an onsen. However, if money isn't an issue, I'll have to use the 24 hours to buy all the manga I want. Make my own private manga library with a few thousand series. Oh, but I guess ...

New Poll - Possible Adaptations

Absolutely no question in my mind for this one: manga only, no adaptations.
I can't stand anime, so the major one is out for me. Games and live actions based on manga/anime almost always stink (I've never seen any good ones, at least... oh, except P ...

Quote from Bafflement No, the rescaling is applied to the spectral data, as you see in that line. However, the rescaling factor only depends on the calibration input. Look at line 18, where the scaling factor from the line you quoted is defined. Ah, I see what you mean. ...
