Jul Advent calendar for December 18:


Today, from kingdomakrillic.tumblr.com, we have images—low-resolution prerendered video game backgrounds—scaled up with ESRGAN.

ESRGAN stands for Enhanced Super-Resoution Generative Adversarial Network. A GAN (Generative Adversarial Network) is two neural networks pitted against each other (thus "adversarial"). The way a GAN works is:
- The first neural network (Generator) generates new things, like ice cream flavor names or photos of cats.
- The second neural network (Discriminiator) tries to tell whether these creations are "real" (e.g. an actual ice cream flavor or cat photo) or "fake" (made up by the first neural network).
- Furthermore, neural networks are typically trained on a dataset beforehand, e.g. a list of existing ice cream flavors or a bunch of cat photos.

So in this case, if I am understanding correctly:
- The first neural network is given low-resolution background images from video games, and from them it generates high-resolution backgrounds.
- Then the second neural network is given the high-resolution backgrounds, and it tries to tell whether they were originally high-resolution to begin with ("real") or if they were generated ("fake").
In essence, the first neural network tries to fool the second neural network.


Some comparisions:






And some demonstrations (click for big):






However, sometimes things go awry and you get weird texturing patterns (click for big):





You can see more demonstration images, as well as details about ESRGAN, at kingdomakrillic.tumblr.com.

^ lol I'm just glad the current state-of-the-art doesn't have a name like waifu2x.

Jul Advent calendar for December 19:


The holidays are a season of giving. And my siblings live way far away, are kind of hard to shop for, have enough stuff already, and are concerned about current events and the state of the world...

So for Christmas/the holidays, I like to donate to charitable organizations on behalf of my siblings, letting them choose the organizations.

PROS:
- As I said before: A good gift for those who have enough stuff and are concerned about the world
- Can do it last-minute
- No shipping costs!
- Most donations are tax-deductible, so they can reduce your taxes if you take the time to itemize at tax time

CONS:
- There are so many charities out there good and bad, so it'll take some research
- After you donate, it's likely you will receive some crap in the mail regularly. (All these letters asking for money make me not want to donate...)


On researching charities:
If you decide do do donations on behalf of recipients, then either
- you'll be choosing a charity for them, or
- the recipient will choose a charity, but in most cases you'll want to give guidance anyway so they don't have to work as hard.
- (Or my recommendation: ask them what issue concerns them, then find a good charity for it.)
And yeah, there are like a fuckton umptillion charities, not all of which are good.

Now, before I move on, I have some advice: If you're new to charity giving, don't worry too much about choosing which charity to give to. Don't feel pressured to go through every list. It's better to make a quick choice than to become overwhelmed and end up not giving at all.


Can you just choose a charity for me please, no fuss?
Alright, will do. GiveWell figures out which charities are most effective at saving lives per dollar donated, as well as which will benefit the most from further donations. If you give to GiveWell, they will donate to these top charities "according to where our research suggests your donation will do the most good." (100% of your donation will go to the top charities and none to GiveWell itself, unless you specifically choose the 10% tip option.)


How can I choose and evaluate charities?
If you don't have any specific charities in mind, any one of the following links will help:
- GiveWell's Top Charities
- Charity Watch's Top Rated Charities, listed by category.
- Charity Navigator's Charities with Perfect Scores, listed by category
- Consumer Report's Best and Worst Charities for Your Donations, listed by category


I have a specific charity in mind, how can I see how good it is? These sites allow you to search for a charity and see how well it scores. If one site doesn't have a score listed, try another:
- Charity Navigator
- GuideStar (must create a free account to see some info, or just use one of these BugMeNot logins)
- Charity Watch


I want the charity to have personal meaning to me or the recipient.
Alright, here is an incomplete list of stuff I came up with. Sorry for the U.S.A.-centric focus here, but the links under the previous question already cover a lot of international organizations.

Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) [U.S.A.]
- Fights in court for civil rights, noted for its successful legal cases against white supremacist and other hate groups.

- Consists of two organizations: the ACLU is allowed to do more (like lobbying), but you can't deduct the donation from your taxes. ACLU Foundation donations are tax-deductible but less flexible. (If you don't care about tax deductions, donate to the ACLU.)
- The ACLU is rated A on CharityWatch. The ACLU Foundation is rated A+ on CharityWatch; 4 out of 4 stars on Charity Navigator; Gold rating on GuideStar.

Jul Advent calendar for December 20:


Today is National Regifting Day in the United States. It takes place each year on the Thursday before Christmas.


What is regifting?
Regifting is when you take a gift that's been given to you and repurpose it as a gift to someone else.


Why regift?
The popularity of regifting is driven by many things for different people. For some, it’s thrift in difficult economic times, or it’s a way to get around annoyingly high expectations about gift-giving. It’s also awareness of, or guilt over, how much stuff goes into the landfill. But the main reason might be just the sheer volume of stuff we have.

—Burçak Ertimur, one of the investigators in a 2010 study on regifting


Is regifting common?
In a 2014 American Express survey, 76% of respondents deemed re-gifting as an acceptable practice, 42% divulged that they had re-gifted in the previous year (up from 32% in the previous year). The items that are most commonly re-gifted include kitchenware, sweater, and electronics. Not surprisingly, the same study found that friends and co-workers are usually the beneficiaries of the re-gifts.

(source)


Won't regifting offend the person who gave me the gift?
In a study published in Psychological Science, researchers found that when it comes to re-gifting, those who receive the gift (and re-gift it) known as “receivers” overestimate the reactions of those who give the gifts known as “givers.” The researchers conclude: “Although receivers felt that givers were entitled to have a say in what happened to their gifts, givers felt that receivers were entitled to do whatever they liked with a gift. In short, the taboo against regifting was felt more strongly by receivers than by givers.”

(source)
If you're unsure and still want to regift, you can regift in a different circle of friends than the one you received it from. Also, sometimes you'll run into situations where you probably shouldn't regift, like with family heirlooms, people who take the time to pick out or make things specifically for you, or stuff with your name on it.


What about the feelings of the person receiving the regifted gift?
I'd say put the same thought into choosing a regifted gift as you'd put into buying one from the store, avoiding outdated gifts (like old technology) and taking into account whether the recipient would like it or not. Also, it's a good idea to unwrap the gift and check for anything with your name or the giver's name on it (stray cards, nametags, etc) before rewrapping.


I don't know how to feel about regifting.
Well, you don't have to let me or society decide for you, you can choose your stance! Some people don't want to risk potentially awkward situations with friends and relatives, and that's okay. Some people regift and keep it a secret (although the guides below recommend admitting it if someone asks), others are more open about it. As for me, I don't see a need to mention when I've regifted, but if someone brings it up, I'll be like yeah.

- 8 Rules for Regifting Unwanted Gifts – Etiquette
- Regifting 101

Jul Advent calendar for December 21:


In the Northern Hemisphere, today is the winter solstice—the day with the shortest period of daylight and the longest night of the year. From here on out, the nights are going to get shorter and the days are going to get longer.

Oh, and apparently this year it coincides with a full moon and a meteor shower, both of which will peak tomorrow.


(source)

The winter soltice is associated with many holidays throughout the world, including Yule, the Dongzhi Festival, and Blue Christmas.


Yule, also known as Yuletide, is an ancient Germanic pagan holiday. ("Germanic" refers to ancient northern and western European peoples that spoke Germanic languages, the precursors to languages like English, German, and Swedish.) According to one description, livestock would be sacrificed at the heathen hof (Germanic pagan temple), the meat of the sacrified animals would be boiled and served at the feast, the blood of the sacrified animals would be smeared and sprinkled all over the place, and of course there would be a lot of drinking of ale. The first toast would be drunk to Odin, and some of Odin's many names reference Yule, like jólfaðr ("Yule father") and jólnir ("the Yule one").



Yule was later assimilated into Christianity, where it became known as "Christmastide." In many languages the word for "Christmas" is very similar to "Yule" (such as "jul" in Swedish), and Christmas traditions such as the Yule log, Yule ham, and Yule singing all have roots in pagan Yule traditions.

However, today Yule is celebrated in Heathenry and some other forms of Modern Paganism (aka Neopaganism). Different forms of Neopaganism celebrate Yule differently, with some sticking to Ancient Germanic traditions and others gathering different rituals from various sources.

Jul Advent calendar for December 22:


Today, we have pure, happy music from my personal playlist! If you have any happy music to add to this list, feel free to post it.



Mabe Village (Piano/Chiptune Cover) by aivi & surasshu
You may recognize this song from the first village in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. Also, these two did music for Steven Universe.



Lonely Rolling Star (Piano/Chiptune Cover) by aivi & surasshu
Covered by the same folks as above, this song is from the first Katamari Damacy game.



Electric Angel (Arrange Cover) by ギガばなな×ヤスオ (GigaBanana & Yasuo)
A remix of the original Electric Angel. I'm not into the original version much, but I really dig this cavity-inducing remix.



Vamos a Carnaval by Naofumi Hataya and Tomoko Sasaki
From the game Samba de Amigo on the Sega Dreamcast and Nintendo Wii. The lyrics are really happy too, so turn on the subtitles!



Can't look away by FELT
A Touhou song remix unlike any other I've ever heard. This is a remix of The Hall of Dreams' Great Mausoleum from Touhou Shinreibyou~ Ten Desires. Even if you're not a fan of Touhou songs, try giving this one a listen.



あわ (Bubble) by Mameyudoufu
This song brings to my mind the sun setting by the beach and a party/festival starting right as the day's light fades. It's also available on Bandcamp with lyrics.



Flowerguy's pool party by Virt
The story behind this song: "This weird guy kept trying to sell Kristi flowers at work, and he invited her to a pool party! So I used that as a title for a totally unrelated song." (source)
Also available on Bandcamp.



Heavenly Star by Genki Rockets
WARNING - The video above makes heavy use of flashing lights for its visuals. This video contains the song only without the flashing visuals.
Genki Rockets is a virtual band headed by the singer Lumi, a fictional 17-year-old girl who was born aboard the International Space Station in 2019.



猫に囲まれて暮らしたい ("I want to live surrounded by cats") by YMCK
A calmer song than the ones above. What do you do when stress gets your HP down? Hit the big red emergency cat button!

Jul Advent calendar for December 23:


Today, I'm posting exciting music that gets me pumped up when I'm exercising! If you have any exciting music to add to this list, feel free to post it.

Some of the songs from yesterday qualify, but also...



Lorem Ipsum by Jake Kaufman
The musician says: "I wrote this as my entry for Blockparty 2009′s Music competition, in which it won first place. It’s supposed to be a "placeholder" theme song for a futuristic anime series with a sort of apocalyptic vibe. This is my first released song using Yamaha’s VOCALOID2 software, and also my first “singing choir” using Quantum Leap Symphonic Choirs, which I bought in 2006 but still hadn’t really explored." (source)



Star Line by Genki Rockets
You might remember Genki Rockets (and its fictional lead singer, Lumi) from yesterday's post. Lumi is central to the story of Child of Eden, a psychedelic rail shooter game that makes heavy use of motion controls via the Kinect camera accessory.



Hold Your Color by Pendulum
Someone explain the lyrics, I don't get it. Cool song, though.



Colours by The Prodigy
See above.



Influencer is Dead by じーざす (Jesus-P)
Nice to see some Earthbound influence in the video.



I'll Face Myself -Battle- by Shoji Meguro
This song is a boss battle theme from Persona 4. I remember my brother playing this game—he asked me in a panic which ingredient to use to make lunch after his character ran out of salt. (Soy sauce!)



Atolm Dragon by Saori Kobayashi & Mariko Nanba
This song is a boss battle theme from Panzer Dragoon Saga, one hell of a game that I hope gets a remake.



Ancient Weapon 1 by Yutaka Minobe
This song is a boss battle theme from Panzer Dragoon Orta. If you're having trouble keeping the beat, that's because this song has a 7/4 time signature.



穢れ無き憤怒　～ Pure Furies by dBu music
A remix of Junko's Theme from Touhou Kanjuden~ Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom. Pretty straightforward.



最終鬼畜妹フランドール・Ｓ (Final Savage Sister, Flandre S.) by COOL&CREATE
A remix of U.N. Owen was her? from Touhou Koumakyou~ the Embodiment of Scarlet Devil. You may have heard this one from a Ronald McDonald parody video.



Puppet in the Dark by FELT
Yep, another Touhou song, this time a remix of Shoutoku Legend ~ True Administrator from Touhou Shinreibyou~ Ten Desires.
It's weird—I don't like the original un-remixed Touhou songs, and I don't go out of my way to get Touhou remixes... but there's just such a ridiculous number of remixes out there by so many different groups.



Law-Evading Rock by Neru, karaoke-sung by そらる×まふまふ (soraru and mahumahu)
The lyrics are kind of jaded and pessimistic, but it's a good song.



Companthem / Gabriel by Keiichi Okabe
From the beginning of the game Drakengard 3.

Today, we have some chiptune music from my playlists. Yes I know, there are like a zillion others I could have used but whatever, I'm just choosing semi-randomly. If you have any chiptunes to add to this list, feel free to post them!


Spark by Elwood



Sunrise to sunset by Jayster



ukigumo by Higedriver
There is also another music video of the same song.



Lorem Chipsum by Jake Kaufman
From the musician: "As performed at Magfest 8, in January 2010. This isn’t the original song [Lorem Ipsum] just run through chip synths, it’s almost entirely rewritten to account for how sloppy my playing was on the full production. Chip instruments are much less forgiving and stick out terribly if they’re just a little bit off, so I just selected everything and hit delete. Since I had improvised the guitar and bass while recording, they never existed as notation and I had to transcribe them and re-play on keys. The synths used are VOPM, Yamaha TX81Z, and Plogue Chipsounds."



Stage Music 1 by Tim Follin
From Silver Surfer for the NES. Silver Surfer is a mediocre game, but man it has incredible music.



Target Test by VinylCheese
A chiptune cover of Target Test from Super Smash Bros Melee, made in FamiTracker and taking advantage of the VRC6 expansion chip.



Artificial intelligence bomb by Naruto
An entry in the Famicompo 2003 contest. It ranked 2nd place overall and was the highest-ranking original composition.



V.S.O.P.M. by Shogun
From FM FUNK MADDNESS!!, an album made by FM synth enthusiasts.



A Crimson Rose and a Gin Tonic (YMCK 8bit Mix) by YMCK
A remix of the song from Katamari Damacy. An unusual and well-done mix of vocals and 8-bit chiptune music.



Aquaphobia by Purple Motion
Purple Motion also did the music for the famous PC demo Second Reality.



Mental delivrance by Kalachnikov
From a keygen for the software GetSmile.



Unreeeal superhero 3 by Rez and Kenet
From a keygen for software Sony Vegas 9.

Jul Advent calendar for December 25:


And today, for the last day of the advent calendar, we have beautiful music from my various playlists. (It's not very Christmas-y, but I figure you've all heard enough Christmas music by now.) If you have any beautiful music to add to this list, feel free to post it.


Song of the Ancients ~ Devola by MONACA (composed by Keiichi Okabe, vocals by Emi Evans)
From the game Nier. There's also an otherworldly-sounding version sung by Devlola's sister Popola and a duet sung by both. Seriously, the whole soundtrack is really good.



Hymn of Aveh by Erutan (katethegreat19)
A remix of Bonds of Sea and Fire from Xenogears. It starts out at a calm pace and picks up in the second half. There's also a music video version filled with Xenogears spoilers.



Sona Mi Areru Ec Sancitu ~Art Thou the Holy One~ by Saori Kobayashi and Mariko Nanba, vocals by Eri Ito
The ending theme from Panzer Dragoon Saga. Like above, it starts calm and picks up in the second half.



Eternal Glacies by Saori Kobayashi
From the game Panzer Dragoon Orta. The Panzer Dragoon series in general has a lot of great music.



Arrietty's Song by Cécile Corbel.
From the Studio Ghibli movie The Secret World of Arrietty.
There's also a Japanese version and a French version. So, how did Cécile Corbel end up doing this song for the movie? Well, she sent Studio Ghibli a fan letter along with a copy of her album, and the rest is history.



Trøllabundin sung by Eivør Pálsdóttir
A hauntingly beautiful Faroese folk song. These are the lyrics:
Trøllabundin

Trøllabundin eri eg eri eg
Galdramaður festi meg festi meg
Trøllabundin djúpt í míni sál í míni sál
Í hjartanum logar brennandi bál brennandi bál

Trøllabundin eri eg eri eg
Galdramaður festi meg festi meg
Trøllabundin inn í hjartarót í hjartarót
Eyga mítt festist har ið galdramaður stóð		 Spellbound

Spellbound I am, I am
The wizard has enchanted me, enchanted me
Spellbound deep in my soul, in my soul
In my heart burns a sizzling fire, a sizzling fire

Spellbound I am, I am
The wizard has enchanted me, enchanted me
Spellbound in my heart's root, my heart's root
My eyes gaze to where the wizard stood




Pretty Polly by Al Petteway & Amy White
This would make great background music for something.



Lotus by Secret Garden
This song features a Chinese two-stringed instrument called an erhu.



Homeless by Solas
A moving, melencholy piece.



Handpan timo by David Charrier
The handpan is a recently-invented instrument, with discussion of it first appearing online in 2007.



Illa Dhuinn by Baka Beyond
Baka Beyond is a band that mixes African music—specifically, that of the Baka people of Central Africa—and Celtic music.



Cardinal Knowledge by Bruno Coulais and Colm Ó Snodaigh
This is the ending credits theme from The Secret of Kells, a movie heavily inspired by from Studio Ghibli's films.



And with that, the Jul advent calendar comes to a close, and it's time for me to make gingerbread and help out with today's Christmas dinner. A special thanks to everyone who poked in their heads and took a look around. Enjoy your holidays!

Posted on 06-24-20 02:36:01 AM, in Any Japanese text need translating? (last edited by BoringPerson at 09-10-20 10:53:58 PM) Link
I have a bunch of Gitaroo Man concept art with mostly handwritten comments, scanned from the official strategy guide. Before I can create a Prerelease page for this game, I'll need help fixing the transcriptions and translating.

I made a publicly editable Google Doc that includes:
- the original handwritten text
- my attempts at transcription (likely to contain mistakes)
- overview images for context
- and empty space where translations will go.

[link removed] The Google Doc is here. Public edits are enabled (as draft suggestions), no account required. (You can reply here too, or Google Docs let you comment on specific parts of the document.)

Edit: I found someone willing to translate, so I have removed the link to the Google doc so the efforts don't get duplicated.

The alt attribute should be used to give a short description
of an image; longer descriptions should be given with the
longdesc attribute which takes a URL linked to the description.
These measures are needed for people using non-graphical browsers.

For further advice on how to make your pages accessible
see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL.
You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
