Windows 7 Beta ISO LeakedDanny whats this? No option for "no" answers for us Mac users? I highly doubt I will ever install Windows 7 on my computers. Maybe my work laptop could get it after XP gets too old but that aint happening any time soon. So not going to try Windows 7...
Dollfie DreamNotice the size of the doll costumes shown on some pictures, its stated there that the clothes are for 60cm dolls so my 99% sure guess would be that the dolls are 60cm tall :)
I really would love to have one or two of these... I'm going to Shanghai...
YouTube Live TokyoLooks like you had fun there! Didn't really pay attention to those "Live" thingies that have been going on now but heard quite many dissatisfied things about Youtube Tokyo Live as it wasnt really live in Youtube like the San Francisco one was. I bet...
Dollfie SaberMan I would actually get the doll if I could get my hands on it. Too bad it cant be ordered, can it? (Not considering eBay an option because there's still a limit even for me ^^) I don't have any figures and there's just a few I would consider buying...
Silicon Valley in TokyoNot really interested in working in the internet field. Im hoping I will end up in job where I dont have to just sit in the office and meetings all the time but can do something else as well and currently it's looking promising, might end up being a...
Japanese Autumn FestivalsThere are some festivals like that in Finland but really not as many as I think you have in Japan and no free stuff most of the time.
About the prizes, is it Danny your way to get your fighting spirit up for the competition that you imagine you will...
Male or Female Game CharacterIf I play longer game (like rpg and so) I take male character most of the time but on games that were mostly built on the idea of bouncy girls I of course dont want to miss the whole point of playing :)
Toyota IQI've done bungee jumping, 165 meters of an arch dam in Austria, was a blast and I recommend it for everyone :) I will jump again for sure, just have to wait for good chance again (some decent height and not just the usual 50 meters).
Would love to...
Trend DayHaven't really given speeches except some presentations at school but dont really count those. I always hated those, most likely because the subject was so boring and stupid I really didn't feel up to it.
But think at least for me (if I were to give...
Counterfeit Goods in JapanHmm I dont mind one way or another. I might buy counterfeit goods but tend to stick to real deals, just because then I can be sure of the quality. Dont have any problem with movies and stuff like that though (software in general), I download everythi...
Chizuru MinamotoI use iPhoto for managing my photos. There arent many yet though as I just recently bought my first digital camera, before that I didnt take much photos myself. Havent really paid much attention to what all iPhoto can do but would love to be able to...
Nodame CantabileSeen the anime and live action as well and absolutely love Nodame Cantabile. Not sure about s2 yet though but will see when things start rolling. Was really fun though.
A Week in Tokyo 27I really dont care one way or another what other people choose to use but I myself use contacts all the time when Im not home. Think the major reason is that I had to start using glasses quite late and never got used to using glasses while doing some...
Japanese BrowsersBlank page here, could set up 4-5 tabs to open every time I start "fresh" session though as there are a couple pages I have always open.
Tokyo 2001 - 2004Hmm nice article once again but I have something I have to ask. Am I the only one who is slightly annoyed that the text that comments/describes a certain picture comes before the picture in question and not after? It really isnt a big issue or anythi...
Summer Anime 2008On OS X I use MPlayer for most stuff and VLC for the rest... VLC usually gets the work done if everything else fails but VLC is terrible with softsubs, at first you most likely wont mind how VLC does them but when you see how the subs should be done...
Nodame ParisIt will be 11 episodes long. And have you seen the first season of the anime? Covers the same thing as live-action did.
But but, I absolutely love Nodame Cantabile (anime and live-action). If I had to choose only one out of my favorites it would Nod...
A Week in Tokyo 23I LOLed at the 4th pic... somehow when I didn't look it good enough I first thought you had Mirai-marked groins of the man on the right, was wondering what the reason for that. After second look I noticed it was the camera that had been marked :)
Lo...
Your First AnimeMy first first anime was Ginga: Nagareboshi Gin I think, that was when I was really young and didn't even know I was watching anime. But first anime that got me into watching anime was Hellsing (the TV version). After that it was Gundam Wing and then...
Your Precious BackupsI only backup the drive where my OS is to external disk, rest are on their own. Haven't had any HD's that would have failed so bad I wasn't able to get the data back before the disk was totally dead. I wouldn't backup anything if I had to do it manua...
Kernel PanicI've never experienced kernel panic during the time I've had my macs (2 years soonish). MY old computer with Windows XP used to bluescreen me a lot though, hated it...
Tokyo TrooperI read all the articles but the ones that only focus on figures are the least interesting for me. I don't collect figures so most likely that's the reason too :)
Refusal of Entry to JapanCant really see graffiti as art really, there are a couple of exceptions but any graffiti that is done without permission of the owner isnt art at all. There are so many better ways to express yourself than in a form of a graffiti if you must, I most...
iPhone JapanThe article states that Jap phone has everything in it (all the gadgets you can think of as big as it gets) and look all the same while iPhone settles for less (well still has lot more than normal cell), for example only 2 megapixel camera but then a...
Oshiri MousepadThere's nothing else missing from the video than heavy breathing... I wont take one if everyone thinks I would get mousepad just for what the video implies :)
Japanese RecipiesCan't really cook, or never have tried it actually. Would love to know how to cook though (well I know the basics but nothing I would serve to guests), have to bookmark the site and give it a go some day. I just dislike washing the dishes after I'm d...
A Week in Tokyo 19Great article, thanks!
Most of the time I watch anime on my iMac, I dont really work with my computer so it doesnt matter plus I have kickass computer chair, cost a fortune but is great :)
I will be watching the olympics whenever I have time, like...
Haruka Bikini VerTraveling already and not planning on traveling more this year, three and half months in Austria is enough traveling for a year :) Can't give any tips on good beaches in your area though as I haven't (yet) been there, beaches here are nice also thou...
Umbrella GirlNot all, notice that the one taking the photo has light blue umbrella :)
Cool photo though, and showing your own umbrella in the photo adds a nice effect :)
Anime SongListen to some anime songs but not many... Some just arent for me, mainly because I dont understand Japanese. But Maximum the Hormone has good songs (Death Note) and Hirasawa Susumu is great also (Paprika OST especially), Hikaru no Go OST is also gre...
Women WarriorsDo you think all the armies countries have are there to conquer some other country at some point? Armies mostly are there for defending the country when its needed and for many other duties as well, nothing like they would be promoting violence.
But...
A Week in Tokyo 18I feel sorry for some of the animals at Zoo, especially the big carnivores look miserable, if they dont sleep they walk around in circles. But well its nice to get to see them but really wanna see some of the animals in their natural environment.
I...
