A mai nappal elkezdődött “új életem” és immár a lelkem a vállalatot illeti meg. Mondjuk egyelőre inkább megtartom magamnak, és majd ha elkezd csurogni a zseton a számlámra, jöhet az átadás. Mehet.

平成２６年３月２６日、滋賀大学経済学部経済学科を卒業した。もう一回は殺りたくない。大学は学問の場として役に立ったとはいいにくいが、留学生として日本に住むってどういうことかとか、日本の社会文化はよく経験できたと思うし、いい友達もできた。

Days before the first

So since my parents left I’ve been so busy as if I was already working at least. Every day I’d start out in the morning (my flat in Hikone no longer had curtains so I’d wake with the sun – nor a bed, by the way, so I was using a sleeping bag) and walk around all day long checking out stuff one after another on my list of twenty-something items, ranging from cancelling my internet subscription to getting a “hello present” for my new landlord.

Pont az imént szóltam megint valami nagyon nem szépet kis hazánkról, és mivel ez mostanában elég gyakran előfordul, végeztem egy kis önvizsgálatot, nem vagyok-e hazaáruló (stb).

Weird bugs

There are a few weird bugs in my system that I can’t figure out how to fix. I have an Ubuntu (always updated) and Windows 7 dual boot. One of the bugs is that when I reboot from one system to the other, the system time is totally messed up. When I reboot from Ubuntu to Windows, on Windows I get a system time 8 or so hours behind my timezone (I suppose it displays UTC but I didn’t check), and when I return to Ubuntu, I see the other way around: the system time is 8 or so hours ahead of what it should be. The problem is, I have no idea which system is bugged.

Edit: this can be solved by setting the UTC option in /etc/default/rcS to “no”.

Művészúr

Ha az emlékezetem nem csal, akkor a mi osztályunk még úgy indult általánosban, hogy “művészeti” tagozat (a másik volt a zenei). Nem tudom, hogy mennyire különbözött a tananyagunk a nem-művész iskoláktól, de arra emlékszem, hogy általánosban a kézimunka minden formája megvolt a szövéstől az agyagozásig.

Ettől mondjuk köztem és a művész fogalma között úgy annyi volt a közös, hogy a tánctanárunk (igen, volt néptánc óránk is) művészúrnak hívott (hinnye de rühelltem azt az embert).

My problem with education

My problem with education is that they don’t teach kids what they need to know. They teach in depth about specific stuff – for some reason stuff that you will never ever need in your life.

Will you ever need to know how to calculate the derivate of a function? Unlikely, unless you’re an engineer or economist. Will you ever need to know which year some king signed some tax decree? Never, unless you want to be a historian. Will you ever need to understand the chemical process how mitochondria in cells convert energy? Not unless you’re a med major.

My highest level ship is at this point Kitakami at level 97 (20-something thousand xp to go to 98), closely followed by I-168 and Ooi, both also at 97. As for torpedo cruisers, there isn’t really a race: even number three, Kiso is in the latter stages of level 96 at this point.

The field of subs is more spread out, Imuya having a two-level lead ahead of I-19, currently at 95, the rest following in the mid-80’s with the latecomer I-8 quickly catching up. She’s currently 66.

名祝

聖名祝日はキリスト教の歴における聖人の記念日的なものではあったが、組織化された宗教の一般大衆への影響が薄くなっている今日はもう、聖人の記念日だって言われたら名祝（造語）の習慣がある国の人は笑うだろう。誕生日が生まれた日だと同様、名祝は名前の日だ。

どうやってそれが決まるのは日本人にとって結構分かりにくいみたい。日本は、名前は字も読みも自由と思うけど、西洋はそんなに自由ではなく、ある程度選べる名前が限ってる。そして名祝の習慣がある国は、選べる名前は全部祝日が決まってる。

母国のハンガリーもそんな感じ。そしてその歴みると、なんで俺はバレンタインのノリにあまりついていけないかはわかるだろう。

Me, Japanese and I

My memories from my high school days are quite limited, mostly just socializing and parties are what I can recall (and the occasional school event). I must admit I don’t remember anymore why or when exactly I started learning Japanese, but looking at the blog’s archives (currently offline) it must’ve been sometime in 2006.

I recall trying to write blogposts in Japanese, and just falling back to using Google Translate (and Babelfish) when I failed. Thing is, while I learned some words and basic grammar, I couldn’t make that next step forward, after which I could’ve said I know the language.
