When Retrospring shuts down will you open a new account on a different Q&A site? It's pretty nice to have an easy way to ask you questions and see what other people are asking you.

Also if you every want to accept donations but are worried about your personal information leaking you could set up a monero wallet since that is a very privacy friendly cryptocurrency.

Yeah, I plan to get around to it eventually. I already have a viable alternative in my line of sight, but I'm waiting for the platform to flesh itself out more before I make anything official. There's also this cute phenomenon where people that normally wouldn't say anything will if they believe that it might be the last words they ever get to say, so I'm not in any rush to move right away.

I have considered the idea of quietly dropping a Monero wallet address somewhere, but I've also learned that I'm not exactly the fastest adopter of new technology.

kind of pointless to have a retrospring if you're not going to actually answer anything, yeah?

I mean, you can't expect me to give out too much information on where I hang out. I have some level of foresight to understand what happens if I acknowledge a community's existence, which is why I'm a bit hesitant to acknowledge communities that are comfy but small, and I can't just drop a Discord link out in the open without careful consideration about what that entails.

why are you so angry all the time?

I never subscribed to the idea of inferring emotion from typing styles. I'd honestly love to type with a formal syntax, but people apparently view punctuation usage as aggressive, and lowercase syntax somehow became the casual syntax. Then again, I admit that I don't type this formal with friends, only when I'm talking to strangers, being professional or serious, or for humorous effect.

If I were to suddenly change this now, people would try to apply 'that system' here and I don't want to make things easy for people who read posts this way, but here I am, showing my hand.

sorry for the vagueness, i was thinking of tools like NirSoft's hashmyfiles or voidtools Everything. general conveniences that can be neat to have around but the average user might not know exist! i'm curious if there's anything more like that out there.

good answers though, overall. things are complicated nowadays, but the best way to spend time is by having fun, after all. "enjoy life and JUMP in the air", as a obscure reference would put it. i think people really gotta encourage eachother to persevere.

Where do you see humanity in the next 10 years?

With the current direction of things, perhaps factionalized and irritable.

I don't like this answer myself, but it's a bit hard to envision any long-term positives.

aw darn, retrospring's shutting down? anyways, uh, hi, stumbled upon the wiki randomly and i think i found a pretty cool little corner of the internet here. hope you're having a nice day!
uhhh in terms of questions... any useful obscure-ish tools/software you think are neat and others might find useful too? and also just any random thoughts on the current rather chaotic state of the world?
from one random internet fella to another, enjoy life and do good :)

This question is a bit too vague, I'm honestly not sure what tools you're thinking of.

As for the current state of the world, I've been going back-and-forth between a resigned "it is what it is" to an inquisitive "let's see how it plays out" with how things are currently going.

Stay safe. Treat each other with respect. Go for your dreams.

What is the ideal number of times to masturbate each week? Doing it 5 times a day seems like overkill, but nofap seems unhealthy.

I don't particularly keep track of things like that, nor do I have an ideal number in mind, but I will say that it's only overkill if you're trying to force it when it's psychically starting to hurt.

Personally, I do it 1-3 times a day, maybe? However, I do have days where I just don't feel like doing it at all, and there are extremely rare occasions where I can go up to 7 times.

Do you support or oppose the Sageru Bees?

Why did you change the wiki icon? Not a communist anymore or did you stop caring about driving away redditors and 4chan?

Also do you a place where we can donate to you to help you keep the wiki running? It's an incredible resource for english cookie☆ fans.

The wiki's current logo integrates Rumia's ofuda into the red star, which is just a lesser-known form of communist symbolism. I wanted to be more subtle with it, since subtleties are fun, plus the hammer and sickle was getting kinda goofy to look at after leaving it up there for four whole years.

As much as I'd like to accept donations, I'm still deliberating what would be the best option, since I'm wary about payment services leaking personal information and I'm generally conflicted about creating a page on one of those subscription platforms that you always hear about.

Greetings from somewhere far away from US. How do you translate so many languages into English on your wiki? Did you spend tons of times to study about them?

It's just a combination of dictionaries, machines, and brain power. Nothing impressive.

Thank you for adding a picture to my np wiki page, I forgot T_T

Hey man what happend to the wiki?

The wiki was having performance issues that I hadn't resolved until this week, and I can't really think if I'm also thinking about the wiki getting knocked offline while I'm asleep or working. In addition, a wikibreak was long overdue, where I'll occasionally take the wiki 'down' for while to gather myself since I do make a ton of meticulous edits and aggressively check in on it.

I believe it's ready to be moved back, but I don't have the energy to do all of that right now, plus I got a few things to tend to in reality since I don't get paid to exist on the internet.

How are you today ? Is everything alright
