Just learnt another English phrase: throw up. I thought vomit is "throw off" since every time I vomit, I face down instead of up.

Can't imagine what it looks like when you face up when vomiting.

Ehh

Don't worry guys. Thanks for the concern. It's more like Irritable bowel syndrome rather than some sort of colorectal cancer (this statement is approved by a doctor major in stomach stuff who is introduced by one of my relatives)

@freemo Thanks. That's not the worst, I guess. My stomach is famous for being a trouble maker.

A bit nervous? My brain: that's no big deal, don't panic. My stomach: oooh I'm going to make you throw up.

A lovely day? My brain: what a lovely day to enjoy. My stomach: want some diarrhea?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Omg today my stomach is trying to kill me.

It's not diarrhea or vomiting, but a constant feeling about something uncomfortable with my stomach which feels like I'm gonna throw off next minute but I never did. So I guess it's not that serious?

Every time I wake up it feels like a rpg game where your points get randomized. Sometimes you wake up and feel super good and sometimes don't. It's normal, right? Right??

Wait... Running an emulator on NS for NS, you can get immediate performance boost?

Well, now I'm going to hold and see how the new ns works.

So I finally figured it out.

I decide to buy a new birdwatching monocular. The one I picked is the same brand with my current 8x42 binocular. And I argued that purchasing a telephoto camera like nikon P950 or Canon SX70 HS is not worth. I generally use phone to take pictures and I'm fine with that. And I don't want to carry extra weight.

Also looks like Nikon and Canon are moving forward from telephoto cameras and now it's too late to go into that line of products. And the performace is relatively similar to my phone. So why don't I just use my phone?

The birdwatching monocular I'm planning to buy has 20x to 60x zoom with 82mm objective lens, combined with 3x telescope lens from my phone, I can get 180x zoom (I hope that's how physics works). And It saves money. That's the main point.

Now I'm looking forward to get my first month of salary 😋

And when I don't watch bird, I can use it to watch my neighboor. (jsut kidding)

@trinsec Yeah, but people (mostly tourists) feed the cat just because they think the cat is cute. So the cats reproduced in an out-of-control way, and now it's really hard to capture. And it causes a lot of problems for the local people (mostly stealing meat and fish from someone's kitchen).

And our local government didn't offer something like a free TNR program. Some pet stores offer a special plan for those stray cats, but still not cheap.

There is nothing to blame on cats. It's stupid human being, well, stupid. They can't read the sign to tell them to not feed the cat. Since they are tricky to capture and not neutered. But people still do it : (

And... As a measure to attract more birds, I decided to take some action to kick out wild cats from my backyard and feed some birds.

Feeding birds might be better than feeding cats. Homeless cat wondering around is already causing me a lot of problems. But birds know how to keep a distance with humans and don't steal food from my kitchen.

No. I'm not going to buy a camera for bird photography.

Let's see how long this statement stands.

Some birds I recorded in my backyard through last week. That's the part of my daily outside hours I set up to make me not sit indoors all day.

Sorry it's mainly Chinese (the text and subtitle). It was originally posted on a Chinese video website, but that video website offers crappy bitrate and makes my videos look bad. But I don't want to expose my house on YouTube, can't trust those Chinese. So I'd like to share my video here.

Mar 22 I was biking and got lost in the city.

I use a cheap (about 20 USD) tripod, and a not so fancy 8x42 binocular with ED glasses, and use Samsung S23+ for recording.

Did see some amazing shots on YouTube, but I don't want to spend my money on camera stuff. Too expensive :(

回国小小震撼。
因为航班延误几个小时,导致回去的时候绝大部份工作人员都下班了。换外币的地方和办电话卡的地方也都关了。唯一一张国内卡因为父母并没有给我续费也停机了。机场的WiFi必须用+86手机接验证码才能用。要么就换地方去取号。但是太晚了,都进不去了。于是就找人要热点,没有一个人愿意给我,甚至不理解我的情况。最后找到一个洋大人才稍微连上网,买了地铁票。
最后回住的地方,被保安拦了下来。保安让我打电话叫朋友确认身份。我说才从日本回来,打不了电话。他觉得全中国人民都能享受电话和网络,我这种情况是闻所未闻。我说你可以给我开个热点,他似乎也不太理解,而是说那么多WiFi为什么连不上。原来他是用了著名软件万能钥匙,而他认为所有中国人都用这个软件。
就这样越谈越烦,他最后说「我寻思你是间谍」,然后就要报警。我说您报,说不定可以挣五十万。就这样,回国的第一天,我就被曾经居住过十多年地方的人当作外国间谍处理了。

Well, I'm impressed by the channel mentioning real world society problems when casually explaining Chinese memes.

I'm kinda getting used to this kind of shit thing in China, like overtime working issue, bad working conditions for labor. It happens all day so that's hard to not get used to it. But I think/know I shouldn't. Happening all day doesn't mean it's a normal thing. I always appreciate when someone points out the issue and let more people know about it.

Great. Now YouTube thinks I need some explanation about Chinese memes.
