The base game is free. https://otherdemons.com/gachahttps://otherdemons.com/gachaFri, 10 Oct 2025 19:23:38 +0000You know, the best way to get over a gacha addiction is to play another gacha game? Recently hooked on Wuthering Waves, I researched other gacha games that I might eventually try out. They need to be on PC, and graphics style is probably the most important factor. Gameplay matters too. It would also be nice if the game is relatively new. These seem most interesting: … https://otherdemons.com/customizationhttps://otherdemons.com/customizationSat, 11 Oct 2025 09:48:49 +0000As a professional software engineer, it bothers me how little most people seem to be into customization of their setups, be it digital or physical. Sure, I get it if you don’t want to be one of the guys with thousands of lines long Vim config, but most people have not even tried an advanced text editor like Vim. The biggest warning sign in my opinion is if the person prefers to use Windows or Mac, over Linux. In my experience the people very into customization are almost all also great at their jobs, although I know some people who are not into customization at all and still very good.My main customization: … https://otherdemons.com/4chan-terminologyhttps://otherdemons.com/4chan-terminologySun, 26 Oct 2025 14:11:01 +0000This page catalogues some expressions used on 4chan which I find interesting. … https://otherdemons.com/mind-sportshttps://otherdemons.com/mind-sportsSun, 07 Dec 2025 13:44:14 +0000Over the years I’ve been interested in various competitive games which in my mind I group under the term “mind sports” that might not match common definitions. The games are, in order of importance to me, go, mahjong, starcraft2, shogi, and chess. https://otherdemons.com/chess/https://otherdemons.com/chess/Sun, 14 Dec 2025 15:43:18 +0000The home page now lists recent changes to the site. 2025-12-07: Nodame Cantabile, Manga, My Home Hero, Go (game), Shogi, Mind sports, Chess, The Queen's Gambit (2020), Articles, TV series, László Polgár, Welcome to the NHK 2025-11-13: Kono Oto Tomare, Thermae Romae, Fujiyama-san wa Shishunki 2025-11-11: Sangatsu no Lion, Sekine-kun no koi 2025-11-09: Wuthering Waves, Video games https://otherdemons.com/subarashikihttps://otherdemons.com/subarashikiMon, 15 Dec 2025 20:25:46 +0000 Subarashiki Hibi ~Furenzoku Sonzai~ (2010) is a Japanese visual novel that turns out a horror mystery which goes deep into the main character’s mind.

Unlike tying a string on your finger, the thing out of place immediately tells you what was it that you needed to remember, and it appears just at the right time. https://otherdemons.com/programminghttps://otherdemons.com/programmingWed, 31 Dec 2025 16:45:51 +0000 I’m a professional but also a hobbyist software engineer. Here are some writings I’ve gathered around the topic. https://otherdemons.com/tripcodehttps://otherdemons.com/tripcodeWed, 15 Apr 2026 19:10:17 +0000 To focus on anonymous posting, 4chan and other imageboards do not have user accounts at all. However there are some cases where it can be beneficial to identify some particular “VIP” posters, such as a creator speaking about their own work, or someone organizing an event — anything where impersonation of the VIP could really hurt the discussion. For these cases imageboards have a special functionality called “tripcode”, trip for short. https://otherdemons.com/hacker-news-terminologyhttps://otherdemons.com/hacker-news-terminologyTue, 07 Jul 2026 17:56:49 +0000 This page lists idiotic phrases repeated in Hacker News (HN) comments. It’s a kind of a nasty counterpart to the 4chan-terminology page which highlights things about 4chan’s culture that I feel are underappreciated. Compared to 4chan, on Hacker News the discussion contents are often more educational, but the “culture” is rather bad in a way that focuses on virtue signaling, trying to appear smart, and weird worship of money and status.
