Hey, I don't really have much to respond with but it's fun reading your opinions on this stuff. I would like to hear the story of the rotary powered japomobile you owned. How you got it, some misadventures, the mods you did and how it ended up out of your life again.

>>1523
I'm glad this conversation sparked interest in someone. Rotary engines are fascinating, even if you're not into cars. It's a widely misunderstood motor that has it's drawbacks, but they're incredible engines that have a cult like following all thanks to Mazda and what they did with them. Mazda was the only car manufacturer willing to take a huge risk in investing in them for decades despite many companies like Ford and Suzuki experimenting with them early on and deeming the rotary a failure. Mazda never lost faith.

Because of modern emissions standards, rotary engines will likely never be the sole power output of a new car ever again, but that makes them all the more fascinating to me and was a big reason why I bought the above car. The story and legacy of the rotary engine inspires me.

Do you like Strek, anon? What series? What characters?

This. I wonder if there are any other campy shows that fit this bill?
>>1383
DS9 is the only Trek show I accept. It's grittier, it has a focus point with the station, nice space battles, multifaceted characters, rogue ones, religious themes and some very intriguing alien species. You pretty much learn to love and hate the Dominion. Cardassians are fantastic.
Older Trek movies were OK before they turned into Space Rambo. JJA's stuff is a waste of reel.

At the very least TNG introduced the Borg and Earl Grey. That has to count for something.

Maybe but it's a true point. That, or having the dead vote.
Technically it's the same.

I can only watch gay porn at night because I feel ashamed to watch in the light...
>I'm completely straight during the day
>At night I go completely gay
>Get horny for twinks and sissies
>I ended up seducing an Asian twink in Belfast

Why am I super straight in the light but gay in the night?!! WTF why is the night making me gay??

It is soo interesting to see a actual AI bot trying to damage IB's in the field.
It used to be the job of CREST subhumans and even they were better than these bots. The good thing is if they are spending time trying to make this ib worse, it means we are doing something good.

To the OP, if you aren't religious just accept your sexual attraction and live your life without a worry about stupid shit like "sexual orientation" (which is not even real outside religious context). If you are religious then try to do shock therapy but make sure it hurts a lot  because i am fairly confident you will enjoy that if the pain isn't too much.

Well, it wouldn't be a proper imageboard if we didn't have at least one person daftly spewing this sort of rubbish.

So, to whoever you are: thank you for doing your part for /late/ and for us (the shitposts could use some polishing though)

I never considered the possibility of it being a bot.

I agree with you, If they can't survive in nature, then it's just natural selection taking it's course.

I feel dumb, I forgot to check back on anon.cafe, but I kinda liked how late.city was almost a stand alone thing.

Yup, I'm glad we're back though.
Part of why I didn't post so frequently was because the place ip banned mobile data, and that was unfortunately the only way I could access the web from home at the time.

What's your favorite /late/ night memory?

For me, it's probably sitting at my window at 4AM with a cool spring breeze blowing, staring out on to the darkened street listening to Watermelon In Easter Hay by Frank Zappa, and just reflecting.

Or that time me and my dad some how found Pom Poko on cable and we were baffled by everything we were seeing.

I used to do night photography a bit when life was a tad bit simpler. I wasn't a professional, I just liked taking pictures with a gopro my aunt bought me a few Christmas' ago.

One night, I woke up right at 3am. I tried getting back to sleep, but you know that feeling when you just can't? You can't and you know somehow that you're just gonna be laying there for hours having those half sleep half awake thoughts. It was Saturday and I knew work was out the next day, so I said fuck that.

I grabbed my gopro, mounted it to my JDM shitbox and just drove with no direction for over an hour intentionally getting lost and taking some of my most coveted pictures yet. 

It's really something when there are no other cars on the road. You feel like you're in a dream or your the only person left awake as the rest of the world sleeps. It was Winter at the time, so there was nothing but this incredible silence every time I stopped and took photos.

>What's your favorite /late/ night memory?
Me smoking heroin while listenning some comfy night radio programs and playing Fallout 3 on an old CRT I found in the trash. Stopping to cuddle and fuck with my gf.
Doing this during one week, sleeping in the day and didn't have to get out of my home because the gf went to the grocery and used to cook for us.

I've been playing with the Mythic GME system as part of a way to play TTRPGs solo.  I've also been practicing the mind palace technique, and I've been toying with the following plan of action:
>Memorize Mythic GME generation tables.  Namely the fate chart and random event generator.
>Memorize RNG algo.
>Sit in closed room.
>Activate mind palace recording.
>Use daydreams/imagination supercharged with solo TTRPG gaming for personal enjoyment.
I'm interested in this because it provides one the capability to go full ascetic monk mode.  It really makes me wonder about how much of the potential of the imagination of the human mind could be unlocked with such techniques.  However, I recognize that all of the items I say here are actually rather complex and definitely easier said than done.

I've tried it with simplified charts to memorize, and it is incredibly taxing.  It feels like my brain is running at full kilt keeping everything in place, but it's also pretty fun.  I feel like if I did this enough, however, I would disappear into a complete maladaptive daydream spiral.
Replies: >>861 >>1043 >>1285
>>776 (OP) 
I've done similar things before, with my tulpa. Never daydreamed with Solo RPGs though. Good idea.

And yeah. The daydream spiral can definitely be real. No real advice for you on that one. Just don't give in to your schizoid instincts too much, I guess.
>>776 (OP) 
I'm doing this, just I basically made scripts for all the tables and possible rolls so I don't have to memorize shit and I also use AI. I don't do much of anything else anymore.Endless entertainment.
>>776 (OP) 
How did this go? A while back I was trying to think of a way to make RNG with my brain. As far as I got was some combination of using the colors you see when you gently press on your eyelids, and random noises, but I found being hypervigilant for random noises really distracting and not relaxing.

Hello, As of today, I will no longer be BO. Its not that I've lost interest in imageboards or anything. It's that life has become a bit more complicated than it was when I restarted this board as a bunker back in January and I just don't have the free time I used to. So I've been making certain sacrifices to keep myself in a good headspace and not become overwhelmed. Sadly the board is one of those sacrifices. I will be transferring that duty to DD. Who I've spent the better part of the year moderating and maintaining this board with. I trust that they will take good care of the board. Maybe In the future I'll come back as a volunteer. Thank you all for your support. It's been a hell of a ride and take care of yourselves! <3

Early Family Guy is pretty comfy, American Dad too. IIRC Seth moved on from writing FG around 2010 or so.

I recently watched from season 4 to 10. Is there much point in watching past season 10? I was noticing diminishing returns in 9 and 10. Does it funny back up?
Replies: >>1280

Imho the show is still good till season 17 but then it starts to decline. I enjoy to watch it after the 17 but it's definitively not the same. Season 1 to (around 15) is peak comfy.
Currently I'm watching last seasons and I can't wait to finish to go back to the classics of my childhood. It's not really bad but it definitively evolved in a way I don't get the feeling.

Seasons 4 to like 7 are just so good. Past the growing pains and utterly stuffed to the brim with jokes.
