Kousuke Analysis // Parts 1-2

Hai everyone!
So I was scrolling through the recent posts on amino, and came across a bunch of posts regarding Kousuke, and before I gave them a read, I decided I would make a post saying why I think Kousuke is a good person, or at least why I think he’s better than people make him out to be. While making the post, I decided I would address a lot of things Kousuke has against him. And so, I decided to give some of the posts regarding Kousuke in the recent episode. After reading one of them, I contemplated if I should try and address the stuff, and ultimately decided should since it’s very new and has been thrown around a lot.
So then, this post was created.
This post is one of the parts of my little series on Kousuke.
This post also is me just stating my opinion.
I’m going to play the devil’s advocate, and make my opinion clear on one thing.
Why Kousuke is a good guy.
Before I start my analysis, I’d like to make some stuff clear.
Thynovel's Post for anyone interested
Making Shin-Ae into his ideal woman.
Bringing Shin-Ae to Japan
Kousuke is not fit for becoming heir
Kousuke is using Shin-Ae
Kousuke is a playboy
Sex addict
Kousuke is nasty because he reads tabloids.
Kousuke cares about what people think of him.
The way he talked to Shin-Ae.
-----
Why Kousuke Isn’t as Bad as He is Made Out to Be
This is part 2 of my little collection on Kousuke! The first one was made only to address stuff from the recent episode, as I felt it was a lot to address. This part on the other hand, identifies other issues readers have with Kousuke, as well as reasons why I like him; not only dor his character depth and complexity, but also for who he is.
Negatives
I have more to say, and am considering making another part, though for now, I think this is enough. Dats it. Adios.

Loot boxes, provocative reporting, and misinformation

In the last 24 hours there has been lots of headlines that follow this kind of structure: “Fifa packs and loot boxes 'not gambling' in UK”
 
The reception by the gaming community has been very negative:
 
Example 1 - Reddit, Example 2 - Twitter
 
It seems like a lot of unnecessary controversy on a topic which I think is actually coming down on the side of game consumers.
 
 
Most of these stories in the last few months have been a result of the DCMS Parliamentary enquiry into 'immersive and addictive technologies'. Basically UK's Parliament are asking tough questions of the gaming industry. It's been pretty excellent.
Being brief at the cost of being overly reductionist, these are some things that done gone and happened:
 

Academics

"If you look at how loot boxes are designed, they seem to have many features in their designs that very closely mirror very effective ways, from the gambling industry, to take money off people." - Dr David Zendle
 

Gaming Representatives

 

Gambling Commision

"Just to pick up a last point, we understand the concern and share many of those concerns, but our proposition would be that in addressing that, you have to be really clear what the harm is that you are trying to address and work out what the appropriate mechanism is. If that turns out that defining it as gambling is the right mechanism, we would stand ready to do that, but you can foresee that there would be unintended consequences potentially if those definitions are drawn very wide. To give you a real example of that, in the past when we have been trying to establish the extent of our remit, you can see how a combination of an element of chance, payment and a reward might catch things like pub quiz machines. I don’t think that was intended as the sort of gambling machine that the Gambling Act was intended to regulate, but we understand the point and we worry about it quite a lot." - Neil McArthur
 

Summary

  1. Academics say loot boxes potentially pose a serious risk and need to be further investigated.
  2. MPs investigating appear to agree and are doing a great job of asking the right questions.
  3. Gambling commission say they agree it needs to be further investigated but are hesitant to define loot boxes as gambling until then.
To fellow gamers: Be patient, it seems to be going well. To news media: you can do better, you should do better.  
 
TLDR: DCMS committee good, EA bad
 
 
  1. Do you think loot boxes are predatory mechanics and should they be regulated?
  2. How would you go about regulating loot boxes?
  3. Are there other problems with gaming - specifically monetisation methods or irresponsible design - that you wish got the same amount of attention as loot boxes?
 
I am not an authority on this topic, I'm just a future cyberpsychology student that has been following the inquiry quite closely.

Slurrsula got fired 2 weeks before our First Big Trip as a Couple/OH showing me off to the loving, supportive part of the family. OMG you guys, this trip might just kill one of us.

She did NOT end up coming with us, though I heard bits of conversation hinting at that feeling of entitlement. OH shut that shit down hard, thank every god out there!
About 10 days before we left, she came home in the middle of the 1 day off a week we usually have to ourselves. (We'd just cleaned up from working on that portal to hell she's so worried about, thankfully!) Anyway, I was less than pleased at the intrusion, and then OH got an earful about it.
Apparently the new firm that she'd gone to after leaving the one we mutually worked for decided after 6 mo. that she wasn't a good fit. (Couldn't be putting the "fun" in "functional alcoholic" could it? No. Not even a little bit. Had to be coworkers "complain[ing] about [her] every day.")
So when guilting us about the trip in the face of her "hardship" didn't work, and laying around the house blowing through bourbon like it's free didn't help anything, she decided to demand frequent updates on our location, etc.
Prime opportunity for the FOG to creep in, right? But I'm SO proud: OH took my lead and did a bunch of Social Media stuff to keep every-damn-body in the loop at the same time on a surface level. I think he instinctively realized that attempting phone calls with her at a time like this would eat up all his peace on the drive, and I can curate more of what Slurrsula gets her tentacles on this way. As expected, as photos went up, she started asking about me...
Who do you think is taking all these photos of your son and his friends and family you dumb bitch? Jeeze...
Anyway, now that one single photo of me with OH and his father has made it to social media, I'm sure more of that is going to go on, but I'm so proud of OH's response.
Every nosy, stupid question she's asked on his updates he has totally ignored. (He is getting such a Beej for that!)
Anyway, we got to the meetup for his dad's birthday party and OH is clearly a chip off the old block. No wonder Slurrsula wants her suckers attached as much as she can. His dad's not rich, influential, flashy, or powerful in any way, but he's clearly where most of OH's good qualities come from. (He gets most of his looks there, too. The Jocasta vibes are getting a little stronger.)
I also played my cards right and got his dad to dig out and bring some old photo books. OMG, OH was like the CUTEST LITTLE DUDE to ever DUDE! His brother was pretty adorable too, but I'm probably partial. Anyway, I got some phone pictures of print pictures, hoping I can preserve them for OH somehow. That's something I miss from the mess with my grandma and dad. I have, like, a handful of pictures from when I was a kid that came from some neighbors and stuff, but that's about it.
A surprise addition to the visit was the other sibling I hadn't met yet, and sibling's spouse, who is, as near as I can tell, an insecure waste of over-sized t-shirts with the dumb luck of falling into a very lucrative career. All Sibling and Sibling-in-Law did the entire visit was verbally dump all over BIL and SIL at home. Not a nice thing to say about any of them.
I did find out, though, that parenting was Different for Sibling and OH. The Bible Beater stuff happened between OH's arrival and Sibling's. OH never got any of it; Sibling had a perfect parent until that 18th birthday rolled around and then the cheating, drug-addicted, gambling drunk came back with a vengeance. Even that part of the family has noticed the problems. I remained without comment, but Sibling picked up on my use of Slurrsula's given name (based on body language) and spent a lot of time texting. How much does someone want to bet Slurrsula already knows about the visit and my part in it? My gut said to be very, very cautious about Sibling and Sibling-in-Law, like Flotsam and Jetsam, sort of lurking around aimlessly until they turn those possessed eyes on you and Slurrsula sees everything. It was uncomfortable. But there were tacos. Thankfully there were kids around who needed looking after, so I "was busy" a lot.
I don't particularly like kids either, but they're better than whining adult babies any day. And I got to play outside, which is cool. I didn't even do a lot of that when I was little.
That move was calculated on my part; we'd gotten a message from SIL between the firing and departure- she's expecting. Since it's early days, they didn't want the entire world to know, but also realized that if something bad should happen, they'd need a support system and trust OH and I more than they trust Slurrsula with the knowledge. I knew if I was around Sibling and Sibling-in-Law without being super careful, I'd say something I shouldn't.
I felt a little honored, and a lot sad for SIL, that I've only been around since spring last year and I'm better "family" than her other options. Either way, though, I've got her back, whatever comes up. (And she loved my idea about children's books instead of cards at the shower since she'll toss anything by Hallmark the minute it's read, but BIL will cling to sentimental things like that until they crumble to dust. We're both book nerds, and what child doesn't need a book shelf all to themselves? Especially if "Aunt Surfer" can convince "Uncle Surfer" to build and customize it for more time away from Slurrsula and the therapy that is making something with your own two hands?)
And still, every few hours, OH's phone goes off. It's Slurrsula. "Where are you?" "How's the weather?" "Did you stop anywhere I used to work?" "Did you see family friend?" In my head it all translates to "JANICE LOOK! LOOK AT THIS! LOOK! LOOK AT THIS!" and I'm just over here blasting my quads.
I don't know how he ignores it all so well. Maybe I'll have to quiz him and take notes.

Top 10 Ways to Earn Bitcoin in 2020

Top 10 Ways to Earn Bitcoin in 2020

https://preview.redd.it/14i4twybxby31.png?width=476&format=png&auto=webp&s=ba30918de799fb2614f4be1284a37d9708c5bbb3
Back in 2018, the most popular way to earn bitcoin seemed to be through Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs). Over $6 billion was raised in Q1 2018 for crypto projects — many with just a white paper and a website. Business was good for founders and investors until the end of 2018 when scammers were the only ones laughing. Most investors lost money, and capital investments into ICO dropped 97%. Companies like TruStory even launched whose sole mission was to stop ICO scams from happening. By Q1 2019, less than $900 million was raised through ICOs —with regulation being the coup de gras.
https://preview.redd.it/jzn4nnegxby31.png?width=480&format=png&auto=webp&s=0c1349ad3ce82ad2b592a38c059709b5c4f00b65
So where has all the momentum shifted? The second wave of crypto projects will undoubtedly reward profits over potential. This article examines the top ways you can earn bitcoin in 2020 — from faucets and bitcoin mining to crypto savings accounts. The biggest winners of 2020 will likely fall into one of the following 10 categories. The strategy that is right for you will depend on your skills, network, access to capital, location, risk tolerance and investment timeline.

#1 - Holding
https://preview.redd.it/2rvi2izqxby31.png?width=475&format=png&auto=webp&s=5edf45a5cf880916a1cbf3dd3c889b05e27a52be
Arguably the best way to make money on Bitcoin is to buy it and hold it for many years. Smart investors rely on a strategy called Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) to reduce market volatility. This works by investing a fixed amount on a regular schedule, ie $100 once a week for 10 weeks, which helps offset the crypto market volatility. The hard part is being patient with the investment and resisting the urge to daytrade or sell too quickly.

#2 - Lending
https://preview.redd.it/8ejpg84wxby31.png?width=472&format=png&auto=webp&s=984fbb7bb13e6064a8ae1d130d77f3f9fd9c716b
A number of fintech companies like BlockFi and BitBond now offer the ability to earn interest on your crypto holdings. Interest rates range start around 8% and can go as high as 20% for trusted lenders. The interest clients earn typically compounds monthly, although these returns mimic that of the S&P 500 so this is considered a low risk/reward option.

#3 - Day Trading
https://preview.redd.it/i1mqwm80yby31.png?width=471&format=png&auto=webp&s=b9185daf5e28b8160f8b36848b26e34e1b7b8417
A common way to earn Bitcoin trading is through trading cryptocurrencies on exchanges using 1X to as high as 100X leverage. Traders can also bet on the index of any crypto on sites like eToro or Robinhood. Daytraders will trade based on charts and trends, and try to grow their portfolio.
https://preview.redd.it/hxpg8nq7yby31.png?width=469&format=png&auto=webp&s=8441aee2cd8b258ec580faee5820510401372cc9
Another much safer form of arbitrage is dropshipping. You can source products on Amazon or from sites like Oberlo who will help you find the right products to buy. You can build an e-commerce store using Shopify or just sell on eBay. If you have a store and supply chain already, it's easy to start accepting Bitcoin using a payment gateway like CoinPayments or BitPay.
Other peer-to-peer exchanges like Paxful, Purse and Redeeem allow you to trade gift cards and other digital and physical goods for bitcoin.

#4 - Gambling
https://preview.redd.it/fghrvc3cyby31.png?width=473&format=png&auto=webp&s=7ebcc8d3a22c7e07ba7fc1c455a8b22b1f2b88b5
Gambling with Bitcoin is highly addictive, risky, largely unregulated, and offers the biggest and fastest financial volatility. Some popular crypto gambling sites include CloudBet, BetOnline, FortuneJack, Bovada, BetUS and hundreds of others. For more rankings, click here.

#5 - Mining
https://preview.redd.it/h9q7uphpyby31.png?width=471&format=png&auto=webp&s=64c18aeb8fc4bee85f9e1b8275385223f017c825
Despite the fact that over 80% of Bitcoin has already been mined, bitcoin mining is still a $4 billion annual industry. Since mining was intentionally developed to require advanced hardware, it's an expensive process that requires large mining facilities to be profitable. For this reason, most large-scale mining operations are located in China where electricity is cheap.
To be successful, individual miners are forced to join collective mining pools like MinerGate or simply mine as a fun hobby with Coinmine or Homeyminer and not worry about the ROI. To learn more, click here.

#6 - Faucets
https://preview.redd.it/uejcd0ztyby31.png?width=478&format=png&auto=webp&s=de76e9b769582b83af46e78d97616c19945d0474
A faucet is just a website that gives free coins to every visitor for staying on the site or engaging with content. Some examples are Cointiply, FreeBitcoin, SatoshiQuiz and others. Keep in mind, a satoshi represents roughly 0.00000001 bitcoin, so 100 satoshi is about 1 penny. It would take 100 correct trivia answers on SatoshiQuiz to make $1 USD. It's far more profitable to own a Bitcoin faucet and make money on advertisements.

#7 - Services
https://preview.redd.it/2mizr67e0cy31.png?width=483&format=png&auto=webp&s=c698ba3fd2ee210837155a240a65c3002ae049da
There are dozens of job boards online where you can earn bitcoin for a variety of independent contractor services. Many clients on Upwork, Freelancer and other non-crypto platforms will gladly 15% discounts or more if they can pay their freelancers in bitcoin and avoid the costs of the marketplace. Other more dedicated sites are listed below.
Jobs4Bitcoin — Reddit job board for bitcoin tasks
AngelList — Job board for crypto companies and projects
Earn.com — Earn bitcoin while learning about crypto
CryptoGrind — Escrow for bitcoin freelancers
CryptoJobs — Job board for bitcoin freelancers
Coinality — Job board for crypto freelancers
Bitfortip — Earn bitcoin for helping people Indeed — Job board for crypto companies BitWage — HR services for paying in crypto XBTFreelancer — Freelancers get paid in bitcoin

#8 - Exchanges
https://preview.redd.it/v5a0u4iy0cy31.png?width=464&format=png&auto=webp&s=543a50490c066b904fe351cec925d8adcf1a6c22
The simplest and lowest-cost exchange is a Bitcoin ATM. As of January 2019, there were 4,213 Bitcoin or cryptocurrency ATMs worldwide. With many countries like Venezuela, Argentina and Nigeria experiencing hyperinflation, the world's 2.3 billion unbanked people will continue to demand bitcoin and stablecoins as hedges against inflation. The estimated startup costs for a Bitcoin ATM is about $25,000 per location, according to CoinATMRadar.
https://preview.redd.it/xoj4c5c31cy31.png?width=468&format=png&auto=webp&s=bed32024272d9c6e6e8fcdc0e7c53254e91c02e6
Building a crypto exchange or peer-to-peer trading platform will be a more expensive way to earn bitcoin as an exchange. This requires building a website, hosting wallets on the blockchain, building security protocols, creating KYC/AML policies, accepting crypto payments, building two sides of a marketplace, and a little marketing, branding and legal work. Some examples of successful P2P trading platforms are Paxful, Purse and Redeeem.
The fiat to crypto exchanges like Gemini, Coinbase and Kraken usually require venture funding, large engineering teams and banking partnerships for proper custody of the funds. Fiat exchanges also have to register as a Money Services Business (MSB). For a full list of fiat exchanges, click here.

#9 - Affiliate Rewards
https://preview.redd.it/peewibjm1cy31.png?width=475&format=png&auto=webp&s=18f067006e2edfdbae198e14d71ede66bb805dae
Affiliate programs in crypto are endless, and they can come in many different shapes and sizes. Products like Lolli and Pei will reward you with bitcoin cashback everywhere you shop. Exchanges like Changelly will give you a percentage of their fee revenue for referring clients. Wallets like Abra will give you $25 for each signup. The optimal strategy is picking a familiar product that you know and love. For a list of affiliate programs, click here.

#10 - Content
https://preview.redd.it/yh7q5vwv1cy31.png?width=469&format=png&auto=webp&s=ed03d857d94d8c11de63b5cbc21c5e311836fcaa

The ability to research, write and publish high-quality content on Bitcoin, blockchain and cryptocurrencies will be a highly coveted asset in 2020. It's free to start a Medium blog, video blog or podcast and share your ideas to passionate audiences on Facebook, Twitter, Reddit or Quora.

THE WILD PEAR TREE (AHLAT AGACI) Turkish auteur Nuri Bilge Ceylan follows up his Palme d'Or winner Winter Sleep with this sweetly bitter drama. Sinan (Dogu Demirkol) just graduated from university and has returned to his parents' home in rural Turkey to take the exam to become a teacher and, more importantly, to try to get his first novel published. By turns frustrated by the circumstances of his return to the provinces and angry at his lot in life, particularly at his gambling-addicted father (Murat Cemcir, in a haunting performance), Sinan is a complex character who Ceylan also radiantly uses to illustrate the current economic depression, burgeoning consciousness of a young artist, place of religion in contemporary life, and relationship between a father and a son. Each of the film's many forays following Sinan is comprised of lushly staged, brilliantly acted, and convincingly scripted long dialogues; by the ending, the different themes are wrapped together in a way that is as stimulating as it is moving
