I'd be alright with not having wi-fi to be able to have what I need to live. I'm still able to do some of the things I'd want without wi-fi, though I'd be heavily limited to feedback and I wouldn't be able to learn as much as I have.

That sort of question belongs in the "This or That?" thread, but it's alright if it's here, I guess. It does say "ask the person below you anything", after all.

It depends on the situation.

Have you ever donated something to someone/something/an organisation/etc.?
meadows272
Yes. Most recently two books to a library.

Which language would you like to learn the most?
Achromalia
As stupid as it might sound, I legitimately would like to learn Japanese, it would be pretty helpful for translating and I can do collabs with those who sing, understand, and speak Japanese, thus increasing my potential audience.



What is your ikigai?

(ikigai - "reason for being", or in other words, what motivates you to live, what keeps you going.)

May that be your first lesson then.

What is your favorite song?
45Traeath
Too hard for me to choose a definite fav'.
This and this, excellent to me.

if you were in an alternate reality where you never played osu, how would that be different to you?
Achromalia
I wouldn't have made the friends that I now have. Though osu! itself was a pretty nice thing to come by, the people i met within this community have indirectly helped me evolve into who I am now. It's been a great help.

Without osu!, I'd be looking for something else to help deal with whatever shit I dealt with a few years ago aside from my music and art, and I'd likely be focus on those a bit more as I'd probably have a hard time finding anything else to do.

I'd also have a harder time talking to people than I already do. I wouldn't have learned of some of these genres either, namely and most importantly Artcore, Breakcore and Speedcore.

In a sense, it's a bit of a coping mechanism, and helped me broaden my perspective in little indirect ways.



What are your thoughts on Breakcore as a genre?

Too often is just mediocre an dissatisfying. Could easily have some good tracks but too often lacks any logic or cohesion.

Do I work on SDVX or IIDX?

I'm betting on IIDX.

listening to music as i lay in bed.

what's the most recent movie you've seen, and how was it in your opinion?
Achromalia
I dont know if anime or even animatics count as movies, but...

the most recent anime i've watched was Denpa Kyoushi.

the most recent animated short film i've seen is "UFO" by SHSK9 Studios.

the most recent "movie" i've watched was... probably something i didnt really care much about, as i dont really remember it.



what are your thoughts on the strange young flipaclip "animation meme" communities?
Dialect
Well, I can say in terms of personality (even though these 2 don't use Flipaclip, but still do animation memes), Wolfychu and Jordan Sweeto are the worst..

The community is pretty crap. Even though they introduced some people to new songs (e.g Marble Soda), the other part of the community is just some UT shit.

If you had to choose, would you rather be stuck in the Sonic Community or the UT (Undertale) Community?
Achromalia
the Undertale community. I'm somewhat fond of it. the trick is to just be reclusive and not be involved in their shenanigans.

the Sonic community seems alright as well but i dont really know much of it as i never really got into Sonic stuff.

Interesting question, actually. I tend to find that dipping my hands in cold water helps to relieve stress, but otherwise I blow off steam playing a game such as Warframe. However, I find that it's just best for me to dip my hands in cold water and then lie down for 1 or 2 minutes. Honestly, try it.

What are your opinions on the current gaming landscape? Keep in mind that this does include more than just the AAA games so the indie, F2P and generally more obscure markets within the gaming industry do count.
Rook
I don't play as large of a pool of games as I used to, but, it's doing good... I think. Perhaps the indie scene isn't thriving as much as a few years ago, besides that I'd say the AAA companies are pushing out some solid/promising games. F2P market seems to still be in motion with the Battle Royale fever, although thats happened countless times in the recent past with HS clones and MOBA madness, so it's nothing new. Happy Nintendo seems to be getting their shit together again.

What do you like most about yourself?
Meah
everything

Achromalia
I don't really have anything about myself I hold in high regard. Though, I would say I'm proud of my abilities and my tendency to look to reason instead of emotion.

Shit. I just had to get ninja'd by Meah's spontaneous 2-second response of narcissism.

Honestly, I just plan on improving at what I do and make more things for people to enjoy. In short, my goal is to create and improve. I might even say it always has been my goal.

what is love? (baby don't hurt me.. don't hurt me. no more!)
keremaru
jesus christ, a definition question? fine..
love is defined as, by the dictionary, an intense feeling of deep affection. obviously, there are other ways people try to explain this to others, such as "when you like someone", or "you'll know when you know". personally, i tend to think love as when you feel happy doing something you've aspired to do for a long period of time, whether it be several months or years. this feeling could also be shared with someone else, which is what i feel to be the primary definition of almost everyone in the world. doing something you're happy doing with someone you want to do it with. lewd? maybe. but fuck it. this is the internet, goddammit. go find your own definition.

Not in any order, from what I often see in YouTube/SoundCloud:
- Progressive House
- DubStep
- Electro House
- EDM

Given how you display the question, I could have understood the "game side" of it, but certainly it's not the right one, I guess.

I'm doing pretty good.

Coke or Pepsi?
Achromalia
Neither. I dont drink soda, for whatever reason. Maybe I'm stupid for saying it, but any sort of "fizzy" drink just irritates my mouth and stomach, and "flat" drinks I just dont think are worth trying. I'd rather not even buy soda at all. I'm more focused on survival, so water is all I'll need. It doesn't cost as much.

Do you value comfort over practicality in the way you live?

I try to find a balance, but i’m having a very hard time doing so as my thoughts are very transient...

What’s your biggest regret in life?
Achromalia
I'm not certain, but...

I regret not realizing everything sooner, from the redundancy and to the futility of life. I would've at least started to focus on the things happening around me back then, that my parents had practically been ceaseless in confronting each other. I could've stopped all this before it happened. I'd stop getting distracted on that fucking tank game I had been addicted to and relied upon for a means of escape from life, from reality, and I'd actually be capable of taking control of my life from there.

That's all I can say.

I had to read too carefully.
I understand it as "Why are you still alive?", correct if wrong. (Well, it is a bit, but I think you see where I'm going.)
Maybe something around, "trying hard to fix whatever I can from the past, to feel better and stronger to face and walk towards the future".

Both. I like new things, but usually I prefer the familiar stuff out of it being something I recognize. Even then, new things are usually welcomed.

Nope. This is why I'm usually literal and formal. That was just another way to expess "How are you doing?", usually spoken as "How've you been holding up?".

Pretty bland and boring.haven't really done much besides playing osu all day and chatting with my friends

What is you favorite thing to do in your leisure time?

Unless that isn't considered leisure time, then I'll just say I enjoy watching Youtube.

I feel like I went in quite the wrong direction, the more I read this XD
"Concern", eh...
I'm questionning the current nature of what people call games.
Like, to me, the basic purpose is to have fun in the process (with the appropriate reactions depending on the genre, of course).
But right now, due to a "misfortune" (well, I'll just curse the algorithmic system of some games), the frustration just got heavily thicckker (given that another game gave me the middle finger as intense as it could be).
If such thing didn't happen, I'd clearly be enjoying the next minutes following now...

how's life looking for you right now?
DeletedUser_4310508
Pretty good, actually: I have a job now, so I can begin saving for stuff that desperately needs replacing, I can maybe invest into a hobby or two and I can treat my girlfriend and myself plenty. Heck, I'm even getting work experience that can go straight on my CV.
Going back to desperately needing to replace things, I really need to replace my hard drive in particular. I need a laptop for 6th form too which I'll save for, as well as an entirely new PC because the one I'm running now has some ancient specs. As far as hobbies and what-not goes I'm pretty bored with life because I don't have the money to invest in anything yet.

What was your first job (if you've even started working)?
TeeArctic1
I think my first proper job was in a kindergarten.
Was pretty fun, actually, although I had to get up at 5:40 AM to bike to work. Got coffee and kids who looked forward to me coming, which made it all the more worthwhile. Some of them still want hugs when I see them on the street. I like kids.

What decision do you absolutely not regret making?
Achromalia
Hmm. I've always been proud of my decision to invest in music production. I hope for it to be something I can do long-term and perhaps get a decent form of income out of. Obviously, I'll have to do something else as a job eventually, but for now, I still have about 3 years until I'm able to legally apply for a proper job (excluding my lack of a work permit). So with that in mind, I'd say it'd be best to start early. I may also decide to improve my artistic abilities to do commissions for people as either a secondary or tertiary form of income in the future. My issue there would be that I dont handle work for long periods of time very well, and that I tend to slack off at every opportunity by default. I'm just not really in the mood to work myself to death, it'd partially take the fun out of actually creating things and would probably deter me from keeping it up long-term. But the most stable thing I have is my ability to work with music, so that's what I'll answer with.



Do you tend to conserve your finances efficiently, focused on necessity?
DJ Enetro
At the moment, I would probably think so. Tbf tho, I’m used to not getting money so I pretty much live a frugal life...

...most of the time. When my dad used to give me like a bunch of money ($50-100 each time), I’d still put most of it into savings. Maybe save only a $20 bill each time, for emergency purposes and Pump It Up.
Now, my dad’s job isn’t stable yet (in this case, he might quit that job and end up forced to look for another one), so I’m back to my frugal mode.
Good timing, I guess, considering school for me will start August 14 with 3 AP classes in the mix.

What foreign country would you like to visit one day (besides the one you are living in right now), and why?
MagicalPug
Japan, their technologies are absolutely amazing. I also love their stationary as I find them cute and useful. And the Summer Olympics are coming up in Tokyo. I just love Japan.

If you could have one wish come true, what would it be?
TeeArctic1
Hmm this is a tough one, but I'd probably wish for everyone in the world to get an equal chance to succeed in life, especially in education and work

What quality about yourself do you appreciate?
clover
None of them. I'm being 100% serious.

What do you like/dislike about your country?
DJ Enetro
I dislike how Trump reversed quite a bunch of Obama-era policies that I liked.

Favorite music game that is not osu?
45Traeath
I mean "Osu!" won't be my fav' anytime soon.
But then it's the only game I play, that involves playing with the rythm of songs.
So, if I split and go for the category "High speed, Hood music": Sora (see on Steam).
Another one in my mind is QuickSpot 2 (Jp.: 右脳の達人 爽解!まちがいミュージアム2).

Japan is the obvious weeb answer

I'd probably want to go somewhere where I can make a difference and help the populace. I'm going to Myanmar for 5 weeks sometime early next year, so there's that, but maybe somewhere in Africa.

Although I'd also really like to go to Brussels one day, hopefully in connection to work

Would you support your country/a leader regardless of their actions?
CatzerTM
Depends on what their ambition is.

what's one of the worst experience you've had in school?
Achromalia
I dont really know. I have a hard time remembering certain things from the past, but there were a few fairly shitty moments. I would want to say it'd be that one incident back in elementary school with the back of my arms being skinned down to the point of bleeding, but s for short-term distress, I think it'd be the times I'd overexert myself in P.E., constantly looking for a wall or something to brace on to, shivering, my consciousness wavering slightly, and ready to throw up.

I have a pretty weak body so being really active fucks with my heart and it feels like my lung capacity just cant support the extra activity. That's happened a few times, where the suffering would be drawn out through an hour or two of constant issues, like my limbs going numb, or an aching needle-like pain in each limb, then there's the dizziness and lightheadedness, as well as the need to breathe heavily as I recover, only tempting me further to just hurl all over. Those were the days.



What are your thoughts on apathetic people?
TeeArctic1
Apathy in certain situations is nice, and allows you to make calm, alalytical and logically sound decisions, which I could certainly need in various scenarios. Apathetic people usually balance out overly emotional or instinctual personalities in that regard, grounding them to reality.

That being said, apathy can be dangerously comfortable, much like depression or anti-social behaviour or your bed in the morning, that when the time comes when you need to react emotionally, it becomes far more difficult to pull off.

A thumb rule of mine is "Everything in moderation"

Another thumb rule of mine is also to "Always stay true to yourself, even if that means not following the norm. The norm is usually more boring anyway."

What do you think the base nature of humans is? Edit: To rephrase, what makes us do what we do when we strip it down to the core?
