[16:55:59] & ski heya sushichann8 !

[17:00:06] & ski good to see you, how've you been ?

[17:00:56] & ski been waiting here to see whether winter wants to end soon or not

[17:01:14] & ski snow melted, like two weeks ago

[17:01:33] & ski people up in caucasus also live long

[17:01:37] & ski they eat yoghurt

[17:02:16] & ski hm, i managaged to lift something a bit wrong, so now i've a little bit of pain in back

[17:03:09] & ski what're you studying, atm ?

[17:03:28] & ski mm, i think the longest lived was out on some island ?

[17:03:39] & ski there was also that french lady

[17:03:43] & ski jeanne calmand ?

[17:03:46] & ski something like that

[17:04:16] & ski i wouldn't assume there's that many over-110 people, in this channel

[17:05:05] & ski yes, that's what i meant

[17:05:18] & ski i've chatted with some people, over 80, on IRC

[17:05:37] & ski some do

[17:05:53] & ski one used to be a radio tech engineer

[17:06:02] & ski lived with his dog, Jenny

[17:07:04] & ski he was usually very nice, calm

[17:08:22] & ski would you like to visit Korea, at some point ?

[17:08:26] & ski hm. i dunno

[17:08:37] & ski yea

[17:08:43] & ski makes sense

[17:09:15] & ski there was this nuisance streamer, who went there (South Korea), like last year, and upset a lot of people

[17:09:36] & ski he's on trial for breaking law, risks several years in prison

[17:09:46] & ski before that, he was over in Japan, harassing people

[17:10:09] & ski Johnny Somali

[17:11:00] & ski he made inappropriate sexual jokes, in front of the statues of korean women who were taken by japanese army as slaves, in WWII

[17:11:27] & ski and at some small corner store, he ordered noodles, then threw them on the window and the floor, and shouted

[17:11:36] & ski no

[17:11:56] & ski just looking for earning a quick buck, from his viewers

[17:12:58] & ski the viewers were egging him on, trying to make him do more stupid and annoying things

[17:13:51] & ski there were some woman nuisance streamer, who dared some other woman to jump off a pier into the water, for some money. then the woman in the water screamed that she couldn't swim, and the woman streamer just walked away, pretended she had nothing to do with it

[17:14:41] & ski yea

[17:14:57] & ski and she livestreamed all this, so the evidence was there for the police and all

[17:16:15] & ski there was another nuisance streamer, Vitaly, who travelled to, i think it was, Indonesia, and stalked some woman walking outside, making threatening remarks to rob her. he also stole the cap off the head of a police officer, and drove away with one of their scooters

[17:16:26] & ski he's facing multiple years in prison, as well, last i heard

[17:17:08] & ski some streamers i'm sometimes watching have reacted to videos telling the current update in these sagas

[17:20:09] & ski from what i understand, things like these is part of the reason e.g. Japan is not quite as keen on visitors, now

[17:20:13] & ski ah, Sweden

[17:20:55] & ski it sucks for the majority of people who're behaving respectfully

[17:21:27] & ski like, if you see someone in traditional japanese outfit, and they don't want to be photographed, you should not stalk after them and try anyway

[17:21:34] & ski shouldn't be that hard to understand

[17:21:48] & ski sure

[17:23:33] & ski yea .. it's just "other there at the far end of Asia", to them, i guess

[17:24:01] & ski it's not too difficult to tell mandarin and japanese apart, from how it sounds

[17:24:34] & ski but, i'm sure, they wouldn't necessarily be able to tell the difference between a french and a dutch, either

[17:24:42] & ski yea. and more consonants

[17:25:02] & ski i'm not as sure i'd be able to tell korean apart

[17:25:36] & ski (but then, i don't really watch much k-pop. i don't think i've seen that much korean horror games, either. some thai, yes)

[17:26:22] & ski yes

[17:26:23] & ski (and romaji)

[17:26:42] & ski i can definitely tell hangul writing apart, though. pretty easy

[17:27:40] & ski hm, reminds me now, for some reason, of that game "Five Hearts under a Roof"

[17:27:52] & ski i think it takes place in South Korea

[17:28:09] & ski some months ago, there were a lot of streamers who played it

[17:28:58] & ski it's basically a romance game. with scenes taken with real actors. multiple choice, at certain points

[17:29:51] & ski is port de bouc a city +

[17:30:14] & ski the closest i saw was probably Baby Metal

[17:30:24] & ski i know

[17:30:31] & ski that's why i said "the closest"

[17:30:33] & ski :)

[17:31:33] & ski do they still do that thing with contracts not allowing them to have boyfriends, or at least not publicly ?

[17:31:52] & ski yes

[17:32:11] & ski it increases unhealthy parasociality

[17:32:15] & ski yes

[17:33:35] & ski (not all parasociality is unhealthy. it's a balance. if you didn't feel any connection to e.g. actors in a film, many people wouldn't bother going to watch the films. but it can become excessive, obsessive)

[17:34:00] & ski yea, doesn't surprise me

[17:34:26] & ski i heard something similar for male vtubers, in nijisanji

[17:34:40] & ski "nijisisters" on twitter being really obsessive about them

[17:36:22] & ski (much of vtuber culture was apparantly modelled, at least initially, from star culture in j-pop and k-pop. this seems to be mostly pronounced with some of the large vtuber agencies. the indie vtubers (and some smaller agencies), are better, overall)

[17:36:28] & ski yes

[17:37:26] & ski ^ good video about parasociality

[17:44:07] & ski over korean livestreamers started tracking Johnny Somali down, and beat him up, several times, when he was running amok, there

[17:44:22] & ski iirc, one even brought a sword, at one point

[17:44:44] & ski er, s/other/other/

[17:44:55] & ski s/over/other/

[17:46:06] & ski Eiffel tower

[17:47:29] & ski sushichann8 : "I Confronted Scammers in Paris! *attacked*" by Tyler Oliveira in 2025-07-20 at <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FkA_iKKonyw>

[17:48:35] & ski he started asking locals about the scammers, and got information about where they'd hang around, their methods, and so on

[17:49:48] & ski if you don't have enough checks, then obviously rotten eggs (which there are in any population) will try to take advantage of you

[17:51:57] & ski sushichann8 : around where my mom grew up, up the coast, there was another small town, over the bay, on a peninsula

[17:52:40] & ski at weekends, especially if there was some sports thing going on, youngsters from that town would take the ferry over the bay (and also ones in the other direction), to drink, yell, some fighting

[17:52:56] & ski they didn't want to make an ass out of themselves, in the home town

[17:53:33] & ski so, obviously, if you don't think, that can easily give you the impression that all people in the other town are assholes

[17:54:08] & ski i've heard similar things with Finland and Estonia

[17:55:46] & ski sushichann8 : "The Terrifying Theory of Stupidity You Were Never Meant to Hear" by Philosophy Coded in 2025-05-26 at <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sfekgjfh1Rk>

[17:56:22] & ski with more people reacting in affect, not thinking critically, it's easier to make people accept changes for the worse

[18:01:04] & ski yea, was trying to look up something

[18:02:57] & ski being called names by people who're acting in bad faith is a badge of honor

[18:07:24] & ski sushichann8 : ^ perhaps France will get a Jeanne d'Arc version

[18:09:40] & ski you don't want to know

[18:12:22] & ski that's quite fine

[18:14:00] & ski <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mz3jK0rvSoo> is by some gay guy

[18:14:38] & ski for some people

[18:14:55] & ski ace / asexual

[18:15:05] & ski it's not unheard of

[18:15:43] & ski oi, ComputerTech

[18:15:51] & ski inf

[18:17:40] & ski it belongs there, no ?

[18:18:08] & ski no idea what that is

[18:18:35] & ski something related to painting ?

[18:18:54] & ski oh, "ça va"

[18:19:22] & ski i don't really like wine

[18:19:34] & ski worse

[18:20:10] & ski i prefer non-carbonated drinks

[18:20:45] & ski yea, i've only been at a few parties which were okay

[18:20:55] & ski most were too noisy and annoying

[18:21:22] & ski tea is fine

[18:21:37] & ski i once ordered tea, in the middle of the night (like two hours after midnight), in a pub

[18:21:46] & ski add some honey

[18:22:18] & ski warm milk ?

[18:23:00] & ski mm, in yoghurt is quite nice

[18:23:17] & ski or, in hot chocolate/cocoa

[18:23:55] & ski carrots ?

[18:24:05] & ski i'd like to try carrot sorbet

[18:25:18] & ski i once made squash/zucchini cake

[18:25:24] & ski it was nice and moist

[18:27:56] & ski it's okay

[18:28:23] & ski Yuzu is also a vtuber

[18:28:35] & ski (it's a citrus fruit)

[18:29:13] & ski what made you guess ?

[18:30:58] & ski don't be a quack

[18:31:51] & ski iirc, ducks have sharp teeth

[18:32:36] & ski but not a sharp tongue, i hope

[18:33:41] & ski iirc, there's some people who've had surgeries, to get a two-tipped tongue

[18:38:48] & ski i'm pretty sure tea is a drug

[18:39:31] & ski yea, it's also in tea

[18:43:44] & ski there was some U.S. state which had a proposed law that pi is four

[18:44:13] & ski as is every country

[18:46:24] & ski at least it's not seventeen cups

[18:47:07] & ski maybe, during break, you could take a coffee "detox"

[18:47:28] & ski just not drinking coffee, for a month or so

[18:47:43] & ski it'll likely have more effect, after that

[18:48:14] & ski ask dad to lock the coffee away from you ?

[18:48:40] & ski you'll probably be crawling up the walls, for the first week or so

[18:49:55] & ski mm. here we call that "kaffekask"

[18:50:06] & ski mixing coffee and liquor

[18:51:41] & ski ("kask" is the same word as "casque", a kind of helmet)

[18:51:59] & ski i guess i live in the general vik area

[18:52:02] & ski yes

[18:52:08] & ski casque'm'coif

[18:52:25] & ski i learned that from the old (1989) computer game Dungeon Master (a dungeon crawler)

[18:53:23] & ski istr (some of) the french started mimicking the hairdo of some of the vikings, it's on the Bayeaux tapistry

[18:54:06] & ski fry some eyes ?

[18:54:34] & ski my mom accidentally asked for fried eyes, when in France, when she meant fried eggs

[18:54:55] & ski the waiter laughed, understood what she meant

[18:58:59] & ski belongs to France

[18:59:24] & ski there was some film about some french people, there, years ago

[18:59:38] & ski it is a french territory

[19:00:10] & ski you've ever been to Bretagne ? seen the stone monoliths at Carnac ?

[19:02:34] & ski Paris was Lutetia .. for some reason

[19:03:36] & ski at some point, vikings came up the river, to pillage Paris

[19:04:17] & ski and then had the good idea to invite some of them, to defend against others
