Why are you leaving? Can't handle the memes or the circle jerking?
No, I'm just getting bored. Haven't really found many interesting discussions yet, and most people's conduct here is old and tiresome stuff I've seen a million times before. I also came here to see if I could recognize some old faces from Bungie.net of yore, but I haven't had any such luck so far. Feeling pretty assured I have not missed-out on much after quitting The Flood 6 or 7 years ago on Bungie.net.

Can someone pls translate. My weebo is not so great.
美少女戦士 ヤーラームーンLooks like some Sailor Moon shit. Namely, the title of the series, "Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon". See this page.

Why can't refraining from repeatedly using shitty memes just be the standard?
And add me to the list. I'll probably leave this site in a day or two, but I could benefit from the added e-pene.

So which or what do i do?
Well, here's a couple factors to keep in mind: a) Sometimes, after many years, RAM modules can go bad. If you had two, and one of them were to go bad and had to be thrown away, you'd still have a functioning computer. b) If you use one high-capacity module, you'll have more free space for future upgrades. Honestly, I'd say just go for an 8GB one. And then balance that against the how good the brand is (i.e., it's better to get 2 4GB modules from a trustable, high-quality RAM manufacturer than an 8GB one from a shitty one).

Is there any benefit to have two 4gb of ram over one 8gb?
The short answer is no. The difference between two 4GB sticks and one 8GB is so miniscule that it's not even worth considering.

How good is your comprehension would you say? Like if I posted a block of runes like song lyrics or linked a clip of people talking in japanese, would you be able to get the gist of it?
For the former, it all depends. I guess you can pasta something and see how I do, though not lyrics if you can help it, because they use weird idioms in any language. As far as audio comprehension, mine's pretty bad, as I've mostly focused on reading. Though, I can follow some audio at native-speed without much effort, such as basic conversational shit. But for the most part, muffly, native-speed audio where people are talking over each other and shit is pretty difficult to me, but something I'm slowly getting used to. I guess the best summary of where I think I am is that I pretty much have have had the 2000 most-used Kanji down for quite a while (and a few obscure Kanji), and my repetoire of Kanji compounds and pronunciations has always been steadily accumlating too. I got a lot of stuff stored-up in brain, but I just don't spend enough time dragging them out and actually reading material long-form. EDIT: Just to give you an example, I just randomly searched for "Japanese blogger" on YouTube and found this. With moderate-high concentration, I was able to understand probably 80% of it on my first listen (no JP/EN subtitles), with some gaps (such as "white day", which I've never heard of). For difficult material, I usually listen-back multiple times, rewind the hard parts, and make heavy use of Japanese subtitles. Doing that usually helps me get a pretty solid understanding of hard stuff. Though muffly, subtitle-less, native-speed audio is still too much for me most of the time. So yeah, generally Kanji, vocab and grammar is not a problem for me. The problem I have is just glueing the constituent parts together in my brain, and doing it fast enough. But the fix for that is nothing short of just having a lot of exposure.

I can hold it for you. But that answers that. Now, is eveything I picked shit? Or did I done good?
I've been out of the loop with regards to hardware for a while, but I can't find anything particularly wrong about your setup. Aside from maybe the i7. Nobody needs an i7 for general use or even for high-end gaming. It's only useful if you're doing incredibly CPU-intensive stuff, such as encoding high-resolution video footage with a program that doesn't make use of your graphics card. If you wanna save some cash, I'd say go with an i5.

After a brief glance at the site, the site like a cross-site parts aggregator. All the parts there are simply links to various vendors that sell those parts, and you will have to order each and every item separately from those various vendors (or you can group them if possible, for example, to save on shipping from Amazon).
And yes, everything will arrive separately, and it's up to you to put everything together once they all arrive, respectively. But thankfully putting together a machine is not difficult at all. I'd say the hardest part about building my machine was trying to withhold my erection.

ni hao fellow kokujin
How long have you been learning moonrunes for? It'll be good to have a bit of practice
Eh, I've been at the chicken scratches for about 1.5 years now. Though I've been neglecting challenging myself for the last good while, partially because I've been juggling it with Chinese since I felt I made enough progress to not mind coasting on Japanese a little bit. But, I'm back to focusing on it nearly-exclusively now, and going for stuff outside of my comfort level again. And taking translation requests is one of the things I like to do, since I get some form of enjoyment out of letting creeps know what their weebshit says. What be your story, friend?

Oh good. I have a whole folder of images that I was going to eventually bribe Psy with a hefty amount of dogecoin and pepes to translate for me.
How degenerate are you willing to go, OP?
I dunno, I haven't really tested what kind of weird or disgusting shit I can tolerate yet. It also depends on my skill-level and the type of material. For example, if something is heavily-loaded with obscure slangs or really high-level, idiomatic usage of the language, the best I can probably do is give you a general idea of what it might be talking about. Post whatever you have in mind and we'll see what happens. Expect to be disappointed, though.

The only positive influence Power Rangers has had in my life is for providing the engine noise for the mech in Halo: Custom Editon's Pipe Dream map.

I'm taking classes, but I'm not very good at it.
Doesn't matter, friend, as everyone has to start somewhere. And even then, all that really matters is that you personally enjoy it and/or feel you're getting something out of it. Though, I do hope that you're past the initial hump. Sometimes it takes a lot of hard work and many days of questionable-looking progression, before things begin to really click and the rest becomes relatively clear sailing.

Post some weeb images with Japanese text here, and I will have a go at translating them into English for you. I need the practice.
This thread also doubles as an inquiry to see if there are any other fellow Japanese language learners here.

Comic Sans doesn't exist anymore. At least not in the way you may all know. It only exists in weaponized form now, precisely for the purpose of getting people like the OP all sweaty and bothered so that they talk about and give the people who used it attention (and bad attention is better than no attention). Though, not all wield this weapon wisely, because I can't think of a reason why the Portugese authorities would want attention.
And speaking of Portugal, does anyone remember if Portugal is the gay version of Spain, or if Spain is the gay version of Portugal? I always forget which is which.
