Now that the fish has sufficiently embarrassed me, I think it is time I engage in activities to make me forget all about said embarrassment ( Read more... )

school, shinji, electronics

You built a television from scratch?

forsees September 10 2008, 06:22:15 UTC

Well, from television parts that my father had laying around, but yes.

in2ne September 10 2008, 06:35:54 UTC

That's one heck of an accomplishment. Not just anyone can do that.

forsees September 10 2008, 06:38:01 UTC

Ah, well. I've been playing around with electronics since I was little. My father taught me a lot.

in2ne September 10 2008, 06:39:31 UTC

Just electronics, or mechanics too? It's... kind of the same for me. Because of my father's business.

forsees September 10 2008, 06:42:40 UTC

It really depends. I'm no good with cars or anything of that sort, but I can repair some small mechanical devices.

in2ne September 10 2008, 06:48:31 UTC

Ahh, I see. I'm more familiar with mechanics, but I work mostly with ATs. They're motorized rollerskates.

forsees September 10 2008, 06:50:53 UTC

That sounds fascinating.

in2ne September 10 2008, 06:55:30 UTC

T-thank you. Ah.... They're very popular in my fandom, if you want to learn more about them you only have to ask. :)

h-how rude of me, I should introduce myself.Um, my name is Sumeragi Kururu. You can call me Kururu.

forsees September 10 2008, 07:07:23 UTC

Oh? What use would motorized rollerskates have? I mean, I get that they'd make you go faster, but isn't that rather impractical? THe speed would offset the users balance quite a lot, I would think.

Hi, Kururu. My name is Fuuka Yamagishi, but you can just call me Fuuka. You participated in the Pokemon tournament, didn't you?

The main use is extended airtime and allowing the user to perform tricks of all kinds, like wallriding, corkscrewing up poles and so on. They're used in professional sports like football, and there's this whole.... subculture of AT teams that battle in the Parts War and the yearly Gram Scale Tournament. The speed and balance issue got addressed so long ago no one ever questions it anymore. Most new riders are able to overcome any issues with enough practice.

Here, this is an example diagram of the inside of ATs, and following is the specs rundown I gave Sam-san a while back ( ... )

Those sound fascinating. I might have to look more into it later.

So was I. I didn't make it past the first round though.

in2ne September 10 2008, 19:00:07 UTC

Let me know if you do. :)

I only made it to the second one, so I... wasn't much better. Did you keep any of your Pokemon? I kept my Chatot and Luxray.

forsees September 10 2008, 19:38:24 UTC

Of course. :)

Yes, I kept my Minun abd my Pachirisu.
