/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Japanese yahoo for articles and a second hand market. Then you can check out 5ch(2ch) and 2chan.net which is a bit simpler to navigate.
They have a touhou board at 2chan which is basically just like /jp/ but in Japanese.

Otherwise Japanese really like twitter so you can look up common japanese hobby words or artists you like to dive into that. There's also big sections of youtube which is japanese if you don't like niconico.

初めに、日本語を学んでもいい。初級から中級までのための『元気』や中級から上級までのための『とびら』をお勧めします。

頑張ってください！

分かりました、アノン君

1. Learn enough conversational japanese to follow along
2. Go to 5ch and find boards that interest you, and then go through interesting threads while making sure to understand most posts. Google is your friend for esoteric terms. I personally like reading https://matsuri.5ch.net/jfoods/ for fast food/conbini/etc. discussion, among other boards.
3. If you can make sense of that, the world is your oyster as 99% of Japanese discussion sites are more oriented to the Japanese layman and should be more accessible.

This process took me 4-6 years depending on what you consider the start point, but could be much faster. This is actually much more than N1 knowledge to attain since you're dealing with actually coming off as the Japanese equivalent of an anon/twitter user/etc. It's very subtle in some ways.

Try to do it with a clear head when you're rested.
Then you just gotta translate what you don't know, keep searching around, click random things and eventually you'll get a feel for it.

Here's some touhou stuff from 2chan.

As a counterexample, I'll tell you what.
I studied abroad in Taiwan in 2017 and PTT was a slap in the face to me for web standards.
Outside of the Gossip board it was generally nice, they accepted my limited ZH knowledge with corrections, and in a few months I managed to contribute enough to a few boards to be reached out for mod status over telenet.
I can't even imagine that context in either Japanese or English equivalents.

The PTT equivalent of telnet of course.
You know the port numbers and clients if you know them, of course. Ran it on Arch while I was there.

Telnet? Holy shit I remember watching Star Wars over telnet in school 10+ years ago but even then it was antiquated as hell. These are the people making our processors?

>10+ years ago
Dude what, shouldn't it be way more than that? In the past 15 years I think I've only used telnet for nethack and maybe logging into a *nix machine.

For what purpose?

>>38473014
For what purpose would I use telnet to play Nethack or login to a shell?
