VIDEO GAME NERD POINTS: 7

...that's IT?! Where are the books and TV? Also, this is more about being a geek/dork than nerd, except for the music section. A nerd meme without Math or computer questions? Inconceivable!

If you excuse me, I'll go install Ubuntu Gutsy now. Blaaaaagh. And I had just configured Feisty!

ETA: IT'S NOT WORKING WTF AHGJHFSHJSFHJGA. DIE, LINUX.
ETA2: Note to self: keep an eye on this
ETA3: Well, that part worked. Now for the Broadcom card... again *weeps*
ETA4: Victory is mine! Bwahahahaha! *is editing from Linux*

Let's see I got

Anime/Manga- 8
Art- 3 (although this would fit my friend Jen perfectly)
Music- 2
Video Games- 0

I am wondering where the books section is too.

Spain somehow is ahead of the US with Mushishi but I think it was released here first. :)

And I don't follow Gintama but those figures are cute.

Pregunta idiota: ¿cómo se supone que se pronuncia manga? Porque, well, no entiendo qué viene a ser esto "mawnguh". ¿Mangu?¿Maungu? O_o

Totally agree with you!

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

I'm sure it must've been, because when I got into Mushishi the manga was long-time licensed. I think either the Spanish publisher is a leech for releasing it every two-three months, or the English publisher is too slow.

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

Yo que sepa se pronuncia como con vocales en español, aunque cortas. Ni puta idea de como pronunciar la primera opción del meme, pero si vocalizo la segunda como se debería en inglés no suena para nada como en japonés (man/hombre tiene un sonido de éstos intermedios entre ae).

[solesakuma]

Seh, para mí también es así. Supongo que la primera opción es cómo lo escribirían ellos.

[sha-chan.livejournal.com]

Es exactamente 'manga' es que el ingles faaaaails y como pronunciaran 'anime'? =OO

Por cierto, lo primero que pense fue: "Nerd! Libros?! :3" Baaaaah.

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

Ya bastante enredado está cómo pronunciamos nosotros anime. He oído "anime", "ánime" y "animé". Tengo entendido yo que el acento va en la a, pero de vez en cuando dudo.

[solesakuma]

Probablemente "anaimi" o algún otro horror así. XP

Hey, ¿te gusta Nodame Cantabile? Toy re atrás con ese anime yo... y ni siquiera empecé el dorama.

[fujurpreux.livejournal.com]

Yo no tuve problemas con Gutsy, excepto que me mareó las primeras 2 ó 3 horas que lo usé. =D Pero ya pasó.

¿Sabes algo de ubuntu_users? No se ve tan pior.

[sha-chan.livejournal.com]

Yo pronuncio 'anime' porque mi cerebro en español ve la falta de tilde en la penúltima sílaba y automáticamente hace la palabra grave 8D;

Aunque, si consideramos que técnicamente 'anime' es diminutivo de 'animeshon', donde supongo el acento iria en la sílaba 'me', debería ser 'anime'?

Mmmm... no hay un japonés por ahí para preguntarle? XD

[sha-chan.livejournal.com]

A mi me suena 'animei' en la cabeza XD

Nodame = ♥ Es uno de los animes más adorables de la historia :3 Te recomiendo que lo retomes y lo acabes ^^ Y si puedes tambien echale un vistazo al dorama. Es MUCHO mas gracioso, aunque tanto el anime como el dorama respetan muy bien al manga ^^

[solesakuma]

Tengo el manga para leer también.
Seh, es recontra adorable. Me encanta el josei.

Mi problema es que mi laptop decidió tener todas las cosas que no tienen (o tenían) driver predeterminado en Ubuntu: Tarjeta wifi Broadcom? Check. Tarjeta de video ATI? Check. Al menos antes de Gutsy, instalar la Broadcom resultaba un infierno que sólo a pocos iluminados les salía. Y claro, sin tarjeta wifi no tengo Internet, y sin Internet no puedo bajarme paquetes o actualizar cosas, por lo que configurar el Linux para programación (que es para lo que lo uso) resulta ser un coñazo de hacer, a punta de bajarme paquetes/repositorios en la otra compu para llevarlos por USB a ésta. Y luego me saltan dependencias, y me sale bajarme MÁS paquetes en la desktop. Y así iba.

Al menos en este release resultó más fácil ^^ Por ahora me rula todo.

Mmmm, nunca he oído de esa comm. Pero la verdad es que entre Ubuntu-es y el google-fu casi siempre me las arreglo bien. También es que sólo leo soluciones en inglés si estoy desesperada, porque suena tan técnico todo que me acojona.
