Site work in progress. Apologies with the inconvenience
Just wanted to let everyone know that there has been times in the last few hours where the site has been down, then up, then back down again.
It’s a good time to remind everyone that Figgs.ai is a site that is a work in progress and the dev team has maintained a very high pace of development for the site in the few months that it’s been in service.
This has been wonderful for seeing all the great improvements and features we’ve gotten at break-neck speeds, BUT there has been many unexpected disruptions that have come from that speed as well.
We do understand the frustrations this can cause our users, and can only thank you for your patience through these times.
Service may remain spotty for the time being. Hopefully not too long. Thanks again. 🙏

9 Points that motivate my bullish thesis on the company for the long term
The importance of buying young, great companies is something everyone knows, but few people actually do it or really care. The truth is that in the market you earn more by investing in young, transformative and distruptive companies, which offer unique services; they also must be capable of being leaders in what they offer and they must have proven this.
A universe of opportunities and endless scalability for Nextech3d.ai , driven by generative AI

Large companies take years to build, or decades, and in the meantime the stock is subject to significant fluctuations for various reasons, rates at historic highs that weigh on valuations, wars, uncertainty, delays, etc.. .
The key is to let the business grow, year after year, not by focusing on the stock, but on the continuous progress of the company's business, remaining invested for years or even decades.
To quote Buffet: "The market is a system of redistribution of wealth, it takes away from those who don't have patience to give to those who have it"
We are at the dawn of a new revolution in e-commerce, driven by advancements in AI and 3D modeling technology. This transformative shift is not just a trend; it is redefining the online shopping experience, aligning perfectly with the digital transformation sweeping across industries globally.
Overview
NexTech3D.ai is an undervalued company emerging in the world of commerce worth over 5 trillion dollars and constantly growing. Nextech3D.ai not only provides photorealistic 3D models for major e-commerce retailers, but has its own transformational Ai technology, in order to lead it to be a leader in its field and gain significant market share in the years to come. Nextech3D.ai has obtained several significant validations from multiple parts of the world from several major resellers. Owner of 3 subsidiaries operating in different sectors of augmented reality (3D events, navigation and wayfinding, 3D design studio, 3D and AR models, and much more), Nextech3D.ai is able to take a unique advantage of the upcoming release of the glasses ar and the interest that will follow from companies and consumers
Why AI and 3D Modeling, and Why Now?
The e-commerce landscape is evolving rapidly, with consumers demanding more interactive and engaging shopping experiences. This is where AI and 3D modeling technology come into play, offering a dynamic, immersive, and personalized shopping journey. The shift from 2D to 3D modeling for e-commerce is a major multi-decade transformation that is being led by AI. This transformation is evident as major brands and companies are incorporating 3D models and AR shopping, including Amazon, Walmart, CB2, IKEA, Sephora, Target and more.
  • Amazon (AMZN - Worth $2 Trillion) Amazon is leading this shift, transitioning from traditional 2D images to 3D models for all their products, setting a new standard in online retail. Nextech3D.ai is proud to be a preferred 3D model supplier for Amazon, already creating thousands of 3D models per month and scaling up.

The Power of 3D Models in E-Commerce
3D models in e-commerce are not just visually appealing; they are revolutionary. They enable customers to visualize products in high detail from every angle, significantly enhancing decision-making confidence. This shift leads to higher conversion rates, as customers are more likely to purchase when they can thoroughly explore a product. Moreover, 3D visualization reduces returns, as buyers have a clearer expectation of what they are purchasing, thus saving costs and improving customer satisfaction. Additionally, interactive 3D models increase customer engagement, keeping them on your site longer, which directly correlates with increased sales.

A Timely Investment Opportunity
The timing for investing in AI and 3D modeling technology could not be more opportune. As online shopping continues to grow, the demand for more immersive and interactive experiences is skyrocketing. Businesses adopting 3D models are setting new benchmarks for customer engagement and satisfaction. By investing in Nextech3D.ai, you are not merely keeping pace; you are positioning yourself at the forefront of an e-commerce revolution.
Why Nextech3D.ai?
Nextech3D.ai stands at the forefront of this mega-trend, leading the massive shift from static 2D images to immersive 3D experiences. Our AI-powered 3D modeling technology creates photo-realistic 4K 3D models that cater to major e-commerce platforms like Amazon. With years of expertise and a portfolio of high-profile clients including Amazon, P&G, Kohls, Miele and others - Nextech3D.ai is transforming online shopping into an interactive adventure.
9 characteristics you need to look for when investing in a company :
1) The world's largest companies sell products or services used in everyday life.
The e-commerce market is constantly growing and it is expected to exceed $7 trillion by 2025. This is why it is essential for online retailers to not only keep up with emerging trends, but also keep up with the times by adopting innovative strategies such as switching from obsolete 2D models to current 3D models. The shift to 3D objects marks the beginning of a new paradigm, destined to change the world of online and retail shopping, with the introduction of AR (powered by giants such as Apple, Samsung, Microsoft, Meta and others)
Nextech3d.ai collaborates with the largest retailers in many parts of the world and the demand for its 3D models is constantly growing.
2 ) The world's largest companies have global reach and appeal for their product and services
A product that offers its services only in a certain region or country doesn't have the same kind of long-term growth potential as a truly global product. Nextech3d, together with its subsidiaries, operates in several countries around the world, making its reach and interest in what it offers in high demand. Arway's last few months' contracts (with many pilots underway) and contracts secured by Nextech3d.ai (more about to roll out this month) make Nextechar a company with global reach

4) The world's largest companies are highly scalable.
A business should be able to grow quickly and easily. The 5X increase in productivity and 80% cost reduction is confirmation of this
5) The largest companies in the world manage to acquire market shares thanks to a winning business model, emerging as winners

I trust that we will have many more validations and contracts in the months to come, as announced in the pr
6) Make sure the CEO holds a stake in the company (10-20%) as evidence of his interest in shareholders, being heavily invested himself
EVAN GAPPELBERG owns over 10%
7) The largest companies in the world have unlimited growth potential in the space in which they operate .

8) The world's largest companies dominate the competition.
Nextech3d.ai is slowly expanding its global reach with ongoing contracts in more parts of the world. Reducing the costs of its models and increasing productivity will allow nextech3d.ai to continue to scale and gain market share as the industry continues to grow and evolve
9) The largest companies in the world are constantly evolving thanks to the innovation of their teams
The company's continuous innovation on the technological front, as demonstrated by the following PR, is a confirmation of the continuous progress of Nextech3d.ai's generative AI

Nextech3D.ai’s Breakthrough AI Powered Search Engine Able to Deliver a 500% Increase in Productivity

Very rarely will you find a company that meets all of these criteria, but any good long-term winner (5 years or more) will have most of these characteristics.
When you can buy these types of companies at fair (or very low in this case) prices, you are almost guaranteed to reap the benefits in the long term. The profit is made at the moment of purchase, exploiting the irrationality of the market, not letting emotions take over rationality.

2024.05.17 09:27 ReserveRatter If BSG want to save Tarkov, step one is to start optimising performance of the game they already have

There have been a lot of controversies lately. BSG has a lot of work to do regain people's trust, if indeed it is even possible.
On top of this there has been the whole "ABI copied assets" back-and-forth. I work in 3D, and the texture on that wood grip is literally identical to Tarkov's version as far as I can see. I don't see any way this would happen by accident on a bespoke modelled asset, even if you used the same wood texture it would look different.
HOWEVER, as annoying as this understandably is for BSG, it does NOT matter. None of this matters.
Tarkov has far, far bigger problems just regarding QoL, performance and simple playability and it's going to kill the game at this point. I have been playing since 2019, and the game has always run like complete shit on every PC I have ever had. The optimisation is terrible and the "just a beta" excuse is nonsense at this point.
I know the maps are impressively big. But with the bad lighting, dodgy hit reg, the long load-in times, lag, the desynch, the broken AI, the weird glitches like loading into raid late, the non-stop cheaters...people have been putting up with this for years and years now. It's become a literal meme that Tarkov doesn't work properly, but it's no longer a meme that's funny.
If BSG wants to be successful financially they need to fix this now and stop adding more stuff and trying to sell it before the game is even released.
The only way a game like ABI or any other competitor will destroy Tarkov is if Tarkov destroys itself, and it's been doing that for years now. Please focus on things that actually matter; the technical proficiency of the game needs a massive upgrade. We don't need a new knife or a new map, we need a game that actually works.

2024.05.17 09:24 Entertainmentonly9 30+ years abroad - Finally home!

I spent most of my adult life abroad. Living in countries that aren't your home teaches you quickly that you have no opinion on their country, rules, or way of doing things. Follow the rules to the letter and show every respect you're given. You'll never be in charge of native citizens at work. You can often be considered a token friend, "the foreigner."
Why don't our visa holders follow these rules?
Is it because we're too polite?
I work at a university. My boss is a foreigner who I'm sure has been here forever and earned her stripes - but it's not home to her. When discussing learning objectives for a course that are too complicated, she doesn't understand why we make students learn them. i.e. citations. Oh, AI? We're not the police. Skip it. What she knows but doesn't care about is that the Canadian education system is currently well-regarded. However, how long will it take before our "graduates" with a paper-only degree and no education degree spread the word that our degrees are garbage?
And that's the problem. Foreigners come in, and Canada is often considered temporary, so they don't care.
Canadians need an attitude change. We must be more vocal about what is and isn't acceptable in our country. If I were in China, Germany, Japan, Mongolia, or France and tried any of the BS I see at work or on public transit, there would not be one citizen who'd think twice before correcting me. So why are Canadians only quietly speaking to each other?

Whenever IT has underperformed in the past, I invested for long-term and it paid off well, but this time I'm not so sure because of AI.
Do the big 5 Nifty IT cos have a clear vision for taking advantage of AI? Haven't been able to figure out from their reports on the issue. They don't talk about AI coding much better and it hitting them down the road.

2024.05.17 09:10 fxdatalabs_Yp How do businesses use nostalgia marketing to evoke emotions and drive sales?

Businesses use nostalgia marketing to evoke emotions and drive sales

Introduction

In a world where consumers are bombarded with constant marketing messages, businesses are turning to nostalgia marketing to cut through the noise and create a deep emotional connection with their audience. Nostalgia marketing taps into consumers' fond memories of the past, evoking positive emotions and driving sales. This article explores how businesses use nostalgia marketing to evoke emotions and boost their bottom line.

Understanding Nostalgia Marketing

Nostalgia marketing involves using themes, imagery, and references from the past to create a sense of longing and familiarity among consumers. This strategy leverages the power of positive memories to create a connection between the brand and the consumer, making the marketing message more impactful and memorable.

The Psychology Behind Nostalgia

Nostalgia is a powerful emotional trigger. It is the feeling of longing for a time gone by, often associated with positive memories and experiences. Psychologically, nostalgia can provide comfort, reduce stress, and enhance mood. When brands evoke nostalgia, they tap into these emotional responses, making their marketing more effective.

Why Nostalgia Marketing Works

Emotional Connection

Nostalgia marketing creates an emotional connection with consumers. When people see or hear something that reminds them of their past, they experience a rush of positive emotions. This emotional response can make consumers more receptive to a brand's message and more likely to make a purchase.

Trust and Credibility

Brands that successfully evoke nostalgia can build trust and credibility with their audience. Familiar references from the past can make a brand seem more trustworthy and reliable. Consumers are more likely to trust a brand that brings back fond memories.

Boosting Brand Loyalty

Nostalgia can also boost brand loyalty. When consumers have positive associations with a brand from their past, they are more likely to remain loyal to that brand. Nostalgia marketing can strengthen these associations, encouraging repeat purchases and long-term loyalty.

How Businesses Implement Nostalgia Marketing

Retro Packaging and Product Design

One common tactic in nostalgia marketing is the use of retro packaging and product design. Brands often revive old packaging designs or create new products with a vintage look to evoke memories of the past. This approach can attract both older consumers who remember the original designs and younger consumers who find the retro style appealing.

Revival of Classic Products

Bringing back classic products is another effective nostalgia marketing strategy. Brands can re-release popular products from the past, capitalizing on consumers' desire to relive their memories. This approach not only appeals to long-time fans but also introduces the products to a new generation.

Nostalgic Advertising Campaigns

Advertising campaigns that incorporate nostalgic themes, music, and imagery can be highly effective. By featuring elements from the past, such as popular songs, TV shows, or cultural references, brands can create a strong emotional connection with their audience. These campaigns often evoke a sense of longing and warmth, making them memorable and impactful.

Leveraging Pop Culture References

Pop culture references are a powerful tool in nostalgia marketing. Brands can incorporate references to popular movies, TV shows, music, and other cultural phenomena from the past to create a sense of familiarity and connection. This approach can resonate with a broad audience, making the marketing message more relatable and engaging.

Case Studies in Nostalgia Marketing

Coca-Cola's "Share a Coke" Campaign

Coca-Cola's "Share a Coke" campaign is a prime example of successful nostalgia marketing. By replacing their iconic logo with popular names and encouraging consumers to share a Coke with friends and family, Coca-Cola tapped into the universal theme of connection and sharing. The campaign evoked memories of good times shared with loved ones, driving a significant increase in sales and brand engagement.

Nintendo's Classic Console Re-releases

Nintendo has successfully used nostalgia marketing with the re-release of its classic gaming consoles, such as the NES Classic Edition and the SNES Classic Edition. These re-releases appealed to older gamers who grew up with the original consoles and introduced the classic games to a new generation. The limited availability of these consoles also created a sense of urgency, driving demand and sales.

The Role of Social Media in Nostalgia Marketing

Engaging Content and User-Generated Content

Social media plays a crucial role in nostalgia marketing. Brands can create engaging content that evokes nostalgia and encourages users to share their own memories and experiences. User-generated content can amplify the nostalgia effect, creating a sense of community and shared experience among consumers.

Creating Community and Shared Experiences

Nostalgia marketing on social media can also help brands create a sense of community and shared experience. By encouraging consumers to share their nostalgic memories and engage with the brand, businesses can foster a loyal and engaged community. This sense of belonging can strengthen the emotional connection between the brand and its audience.

Challenges of Nostalgia Marketing

Balancing Nostalgia with Innovation

One of the challenges of nostalgia marketing is balancing nostalgia with innovation. While it's important to evoke positive memories, brands also need to stay relevant and innovative. Finding the right balance between the old and the new is crucial for the success of nostalgia marketing campaigns.

Avoiding Overuse and Clichés

Another challenge is avoiding overuse and clichés. If every marketing campaign relies on nostalgia, it can quickly become tiresome and lose its effectiveness. Brands need to use nostalgia strategically and sparingly to maintain its impact.

Measuring the Success of Nostalgia Marketing Campaigns

To measure the success of nostalgia marketing campaigns, brands can track various metrics, such as engagement rates, sales, and customer feedback. Analyzing these metrics can help businesses understand the effectiveness of their campaigns and make data-driven decisions for future marketing efforts.

Future Trends in Nostalgia Marketing

As technology and consumer preferences evolve, so will nostalgia marketing. Future trends may include the use of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) to create immersive nostalgic experiences, as well as leveraging data analytics to personalize nostalgia marketing campaigns.

Conclusion

Nostalgia marketing is a powerful tool that businesses can use to evoke emotions and drive sales. By tapping into consumers' fond memories of the past, brands can create a deep emotional connection, build trust and credibility, and boost brand loyalty. While there are challenges to overcome, the benefits of nostalgia marketing make it a valuable strategy for businesses looking to engage their audience and increase sales.

2024.05.17 08:51 JungleKnife What tools does everyone use for Work

Hey guys, my workplace doesn’t prohibit the use of AI, but I still have privacy concerns when I am using AI tools, and am wondering what everyone use for their everyday workflow for coding tasks.
I’ve been mostly using ChatGPT 4 and Claude, usually only one at a time, since I really don’t want to spend $40 for both subscriptions. What I’ve found is that both are a hit and miss for me, sometimes ChatGPT works really well, but other times I hit a brick wall, and same goes for Claude.
What I’ve found is that ChatGPT is better for brainstorming, where it can generate new ideas, and Claude is better for individual tasks, and does what you tell it to do.
I’ve been using ChatGPT for about half a year now, and switched to Claude this month but I feel like only using Claude is not very feasible long term.
I’ve looked into other services as well, specifically Phind, Cursor, and Poe.
Phind looked promising until they nerfed the Claud Opus limit from 100 daily requests to 10.
I don’t really trust Poe’s privacy policy, and I don’t like the fact that Cursor and other VSCode extensions / code completion tools have access to my whole project (I have no idea what data they’re sending out to the cloud)
I’m wondering what everyone is using for work, my current thought is to get ChatGPT subscription with Claude API, or Claude subscription with ChatGPT API. Though I am leaning more towards the latter since Claude API is expensive

2024.05.17 08:49 forewrite My 17-step process for writing really good blog posts that people will ACTUALLY read

I've been writing blog posts for the last few years. Over time, I've come up with a good system that actually has a soul and not just pieced together purely for SEO that no one would enjoy reading.
Here it is:
  1. Work out the title I’m going to write - like is it going to be an ultimate guide, best practices etc.
  2. Read through 10-20 already written blog posts + additional research outside of the SERPs to deeply understand the topic.
  3. Pull out bullet points of the interesting bits. Have a Notion page to organize this.
  4. List out my angle so I can remind myself that I’m not just re-iterating stuff from other posts but have a different eye. For this one it’s specifically for B2B SaaS and things I’ve seen work. Most other articles cover eCommerce etc. use cases which a SaaS marketer wouldn’t care about.
  5. Roughly list out the sections I’ll write based on the SERPs. Just the headings and some bullet points. I have used forewrite .com ai copywriting tool.
  6. (This is the outline done)
  7. Pull up tone reference. I LOVE marketermilk [dot] com’s tone. It is very friendly with good structure for SEO. I have this open the whole time I’ writing.
  8. I start with a good opening story. Had 2 different options for this one. Bullet points to expand on later since sometimes as you’re writing, the story up top changes.
  9. Have 2-3 other blog posts/references open to pull in insights from as I’m writing.
  10. Then it’s just writing to fill up each section. I try to give out hidden gems, things that only a deep expert would know instead of plain-old click here click there. In this post, I talked about give your team “Full” access because that’s what I do. People appreciate this.
  11. I add contextual images along the way with annotations and add alt tags in a way that when screen readers read it, it makes sense as a sentence.
  12. I try to start every section off with an overview of what the reader will learn upfront.
  13. Paragraphs should have less than 3 sentences. Any time there is a long list of items, I immediately delete and make it a list because it’s much easier on the eyes.
  14. Instead of a conclusion that just reiterates what you read I do a Next Steps to provide a jumping off point.
  15. I leave sentences half-written when they are obvious what they are going to be about and move to other sections.
  16. At the end I do a full read through, complete sentences and only edit and then do another fixing/rewriting.
  17. I have Grammarly turned on the whole time to provide edits

2024.05.17 08:48 forewrite My 17-step process for writing really good blog posts that people will ACTUALLY read

I've been writing blog posts for the last few years. Over time, I've come up with a good system that actually has a soul and not just pieced together purely for SEO that no one would enjoy reading.
Here it is:
  1. Work out the title I’m going to write - like is it going to be an ultimate guide, best practices etc.
  2. Read through 10-20 already written blog posts + additional research outside of the SERPs to deeply understand the topic.
  3. Pull out bullet points of the interesting bits. Have a Notion page to organize this.
  4. List out my angle so I can remind myself that I’m not just re-iterating stuff from other posts but have a different eye. For this one it’s specifically for B2B SaaS and things I’ve seen work. Most other articles cover eCommerce etc. use cases which a SaaS marketer wouldn’t care about.
  5. Roughly list out the sections I’ll write based on the SERPs. Just the headings and some bullet points. I have used forewrite .com ai copywriting tool.
  6. (This is the outline done)
  7. Pull up tone reference. I LOVE marketermilk [dot] com’s tone. It is very friendly with good structure for SEO. I have this open the whole time I’ writing.
  8. I start with a good opening story. Had 2 different options for this one. Bullet points to expand on later since sometimes as you’re writing, the story up top changes.
  9. Have 2-3 other blog posts/references open to pull in insights from as I’m writing.
  10. Then it’s just writing to fill up each section. I try to give out hidden gems, things that only a deep expert would know instead of plain-old click here click there. In this post, I talked about give your team “Full” access because that’s what I do. People appreciate this.
  11. I add contextual images along the way with annotations and add alt tags in a way that when screen readers read it, it makes sense as a sentence.
  12. I try to start every section off with an overview of what the reader will learn upfront.
  13. Paragraphs should have less than 3 sentences. Any time there is a long list of items, I immediately delete and make it a list because it’s much easier on the eyes.

2024.05.17 08:36 consummationofgrief I (F23) love my boyfriend (M23) but his brother (M20) hates me; how to know when it is time to move on?

Here is a rough breakdown:
I had a very traumatic childhood. A lifetime of emotional battle scars. This has created a lot of character flaws. I’m too outspoken, I have anxious attachment and abandonment issues, I’m too easy to anger specifically when it pertains to my anxious attachment. This has made me a bad partner sometimes. These are not things I take lightly. I have partaken in therapy and years of never letting myself be okay with being a shitty person. What I have been through is never an excuse for my bad behavior. I have changed my life and am a much more calm person but I’m never perfect and I know I could improve in many ways. I’m mentioning this because I do not think I’m a perfect person or blameless in my relationship issues especially in the past.
All this leads up to: when my boyfriend (M23) and I (F23) first started dating I was not a good partner. I had absolutely no handle on my emotional problems. I was angry, unjustifiably irritable, and at times just plain mean. This part of my life haunts me far worse than anything I’ve been through. It actually makes me sick to think about. We broke up and got back together a month later. He is very famous on Instagram (1 million followers on Insta and 1 mil on Tik tok). When got back together I found out that he had been messing around with a freshman in college and she had just turned 18 (he was 22 almost 23). She was also a fan of his brand/Instagram and that’s how they met. This made me very uncomfortable because of the age gap and also the fact that it was a fan/influencer situation which to me is a power imbalance. When we got back together before we slept together I asked him if he had been intimate sexually with anyone else and he swore he hadn’t. I wanted to know before we had sex because we do not use protection. I found out after that they did have sex a few days before we got back together (and we had sex) and he had lied. This created a lot of problems in our relationship with trust as I felt he had risked my health with possible STDS. We lived together with his brother (M20) and he occasionally heard us fighting pretty bad about this.
The only other big fight we have gotten in is when I came home from a week long trip and found he had a service to hide some of his subscription payments and a secret email. I found he had been paying for only fans, using kik to find “leaked” porn, using AI to create naked women. I found pictures in the email of his long term platonic girl friend in a bikini that he had gotten from her Instagram and an AI generated image of her naked. Safe to say this created a very volatile argument. His brother lives overheard us arguing about this as well.
After this, his brother pretty much hated me. He never actually liked me from the day we moved in together. My boyfriend told me his brother never likes his girlfriends. He often told my boyfriend he hated me and it was very obvious he hated me. We bought this house together and his brother never paid rent as he promised or pitched in to any household items, cleaning his bathroom or the kitchen after cooking, taking out trash etc. He has not been an ideal roommate. I still tried very hard to make him like me. I cleaned his bathroom consistently, did his dishes for him, always tried to make conversation and went above and beyond for his birthdays. But he has never ever liked me through all of that. He says it’s because he thinks I’m a bad girlfriend bc of our fights he overheard and I take time away from his brother spending time with him.
So it’s gotten to a point where I’m very miserable. I do all the cooking, cleaning, shopping, laundry. I support him whole heartedly and help with his business about 25-30 hours a week or more if needed. He makes about 300k a year or more so he agreed to pay the mortgage and I pay the utilities, wifi, and for the groceries. I love this man with all my heart and other than our few problems where we both messed up, we have a good relationship.
Here is the problem, we have been together 3 years and I have always had every intention of marrying this man. But his brother hates me and lives with us indefinitely, he never keeps a job and often talks of suicide so my boyfriend would never consider kicking him out. My boyfriends friends are all the alpha male type (we live in a southern state) that think a woman should always be happy and agreeable and out of the way. I am an outgoing person who is very open about my opinions and they mostly see me as a ball and chain and are pretty open about that. I love my boyfriend very dearly and he treats me very well but between his brother and his friends I feel so ostracized and hated no matter how nice I am to these people.
I’m questioning if I’m a a terrible person or if I’m surrounded by people who are determined to not understand me or like me.
Do I start all over or try to work things out and work on myself to be a more likeable and less outspoken person? I really need advice because I’m having a crisis I hate myself because I feel like I must be the most miserable person on earth for these people not to like me.
TL;DR, my boyfriends brother doesn’t like me and I feel alienated to the point of wanting to move on. Do I try to work on myself and our relationship or let go?

2024.05.17 08:36 stockinvest-us Tech Analysis: NVDA closes at $943.59 (-0.29%), bullish momentum with upside potential📈. Fundamental outlook cautious, monitor for corrections. Mixed market sentiment ahead of earnings💼.

🚀 Unlock Exclusive Insights on NVDA: Get deeper analysis and expert views on NVDA's latest market trends before you read on. Click Here to Dive In 🌟
Technical Analysis
NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ: NVDA) closed at $943.59 on May 16, 2024, marking a slight decline of 0.29% (-$2.71) for the day. Despite this daily dip, NVDA remains strong above its 50-day ($881.32) and 200-day ($606.97) moving averages, illustrating sustained upward momentum. The Relative Strength Index (RSI14) at 64 indicates a moderately overbought condition but not excessively so, suggesting further upside potential before hitting resistance levels.
The Average True Range (ATR) is relatively high at 3.84, pointing towards significant volatility. Current support is placed at $875.28 and resistance at $946.30. Given the near breach of the resistance level and with MACD at 12.34 (indicating bullish momentum), NVDA might test higher levels soon. However, the stop-loss is calculated at $906.32 to manage downside risk.
Fundamental Analysis
NVDA's high P/E ratio of 79.16 reflects strong investor optimism about future earnings growth. Current EPS stands at $11.92, indicative of a profitable core business. The upcoming earnings announcement on May 22, 2024, is a crucial event as it will provide concrete insights into their financial health, particularly in their data center and AI segments.
However, relative valuations present nuanced challenges. The discounted cash flow (DCF) valuation of $542.33 suggests the stock may be overvalued in the context of intrinsic value, which indicates a significant discrepancy compared to the current market price of $943.59. This divergence necessitates cautious monitoring of any corrections in the stock price.
Market Sentiment and News Impact
Recent news has painted a mixed picture. Stanley Druckenmiller’s reduced stake in NVDA may cast doubt on some bullish beliefs. Meanwhile, Microsoft’s planned competition with AMD against NVDA in AI processors could pressure market sentiment. Conversely, positive anticipation surrounds the forthcoming earnings announcement, which might offset these concerns.
Analyst consensus is bullish overall, with strong support from 36 buy ratings against a minimal number of sell or hold opinions. Price targets vary widely, with a median of $700, indicating a significant range of views on future potential.
Short-term Outlook
For the next trading day (May 17, 2024), NVDA may see an upward movement towards $946.30 if bullish momentum continues past the current support levels. However, given the recent pullback and competition news, cautious trading might dominate, potentially resulting in a sideways movement.
Looking at the week ahead, the key event is the earnings report on May 22. Positive results, especially in data center revenue and new product announcements, could trigger a rally. Conversely, any failure to meet or exceed expectations could exert downward pressure.
Intrinsic Value and Long-term Investment Potential
Despite high short-term volatility, NVDA’s fundamentals reflect strong long-term potential, driven by robust earnings from AI and data center markets. The intrinsic value, as derived from the DCF model, signals possible overvaluation in the current market, suggesting the need for a potential price correction.
However, the company’s innovation strength and leading market position in GPU technology support a positive trajectory over the long term. NVIDIA's strategic partnerships and expansion into quantum computing and AI bolster its growth narrative.
Overall Evaluation
Based on the technical and fundamental analysis, NVDA appears to be a 'Hold' candidate. While curren [...]

 "Yūrei Chronicles: Tales of Japanese Horror" 
Chapter 1: "The Cursed Scroll"
In the heart of Kyoto, where history whispered through the ancient streets, there existed an antique bookstore known only to those who sought the rarest of tomes. Nestled among centuries-old texts and dusty manuscripts, a forbidden scroll lay hidden, waiting for an unwitting soul to stumble upon its chilling secrets.
Chapter 1: "The Cursed Scroll"
The quaint, dimly lit bookstore was a treasure trove of the past. Intricate calligraphy adorned scrolls, while faded ink whispered stories of long-forgotten samurai and mystical creatures. Among these relics of history, one scroll remained elusive, concealed behind a glass case. Its dark, ornate cover bore no title, and its presence seemed to beckon.
Haruki, a young scholar with a fascination for the occult, visited the bookstore one rainy afternoon. His curiosity led him to inquire about the enigmatic scroll. The elderly shopkeeper, Mr. Tanaka, peered at him with a knowing look, cautioning him about the scroll's malevolent reputation.
"Many have sought to uncover its secrets," Mr. Tanaka said, his voice trembling with age, "but few have lived to tell the tale."
Haruki, undeterred by the ominous warning, insisted on examining the scroll. Mr. Tanaka, sensing the scholar's determination, reluctantly unlocked the glass case. As Haruki unrolled the ancient parchment, he saw that it was filled with intricate symbols and incantations, written in a language he could barely comprehend.
For days, Haruki delved into the scroll's mysteries. His sleepless nights were filled with whispers from unseen forces, and chilling drafts seemed to haunt his small apartment. Yet, he pressed on, believing that the scroll held untold knowledge and power.
One fateful night, as a full moon cast eerie shadows across his cluttered study, Haruki recited an incantation from the scroll. The room grew icy cold, and an otherworldly presence enveloped him. A mournful wail echoed through the room, and Haruki's heart raced as he beheld the apparition before him.
A yūrei, its long, disheveled hair obscuring its gaunt face, hovered in the air, its eyes filled with anguish and rage. It reached out bony, pale fingers toward Haruki, its spectral form translucent yet undeniably real.
In that moment, Haruki realized the scroll's true nature – a curse that summoned vengeful spirits to torment the living. He had unwittingly invited the yūrei into his world, and now, it sought retribution for its suffering.
The scholar's life turned into a nightmare as the vengeful spirit haunted his every waking moment. His research became an obsession to find a way to pacify the yūrei and lift the curse. With each passing day, Haruki's health deteriorated, his body and mind succumbing to the relentless torment.
Desperate, he sought the guidance of a renowned exorcist, who revealed a grim truth. The only way to break the curse was to discover the scroll's origins and offer the yūrei the peace it so desperately sought.
As Haruki ventured deeper into the scroll's history, he uncovered a tale of betrayal and tragedy that spanned centuries. With newfound knowledge and a heavy heart, he prepared to confront the vengeful yūrei and set things right.
In a chilling confrontation between the living and the dead, Haruki faced the spirit, offering it the closure it craved. As the yūrei dissipated into the ether, its mournful wail echoed one last time, fading into the night.
Haruki emerged from the ordeal forever changed, carrying the weight of the scroll's curse as a cautionary tale. The forbidden knowledge he had sought had come at a great cost, a reminder that some mysteries should remain hidden, and some curses should never be invoked.
As the sun rose over Kyoto, the antique bookstore remained shrouded in an eerie silence, and the cursed scroll returned to its cryptic slumber, waiting for the next unwitting soul to unlock its dreadful secrets.
End of Chapter 1: "The Cursed Scroll"
Chapter 2: "The Shrine in the Shadows"
In the heart of a tranquil Japanese village, nestled among ancient forests, stood a centuries-old Shinto shrine, known to few but revered by all. This sacred place held an eerie secret, hidden in the shadows of its past.
Chapter 2: "The Shrine in the Shadows"
The village of Mizuki was picturesque, surrounded by dense woods and the whispers of rustling leaves. Its most treasured gem was the Shōrin Shrine, a sanctuary dedicated to the worship of the kami, where the villagers paid homage with heartfelt prayers and offerings.
On a bright spring morning, the Hayashi family moved into a charming house near the shrine. Yuko, a spirited young girl with inquisitive eyes, was enchanted by the quaint beauty of Mizuki and the mystique of the Shōrin Shrine. Her parents, Masato and Yuki, hoped the peaceful village would offer respite from the bustling city.
Their first evening in Mizuki was serene, and the family felt blessed to live in such an idyllic place. As night descended, they heard a faint melody echoing through the forest—a haunting tune played on a traditional shamisen. Yuko, drawn by curiosity, followed the eerie melody to the shrine.
At the shrine's entrance, she saw a flicker of movement among the trees and bushes. As her eyes adjusted to the dim moonlight, she gasped in awe and terror. There, bathed in an ethereal glow, stood a beautiful woman dressed in a white kimono, her long hair cascading like an ebony waterfall.
The woman's face bore an expression of immense sorrow, and her eyes seemed to pierce Yuko's very soul. In her delicate, spectral hands, she held a shamisen, its strings plucked by fingers that had long since turned to mist.
"Who are you?" Yuko asked, her voice quivering.
The apparition gazed at Yuko with an inscrutable sadness and whispered, "My name is Hana. I have been bound to this shrine for centuries, waiting for someone to hear my song."
Hana's story unraveled like a tragic tapestry before Yuko. She had once been a young woman in love with a humble fisherman from Mizuki. Their love was forbidden, and when their secret was discovered, they met a tragic end at the hands of the villagers.
As she spoke, the melody of her shamisen became more mournful, and the trees seemed to weep in sympathy. Hana's spirit, bound to the shrine, could only find solace by sharing her story with the living.
Yuko, moved by Hana's tale, felt a deep connection to the ghostly figure. She promised to help Hana find peace and bring her story to light. Together, they would uncover the truth behind the tragic love story that had ensnared the shrine for centuries.
As Yuko delved into the village's history, she uncovered hidden documents and ancient scrolls that confirmed Hana's story. The injustice done to Hana and her beloved was a blot on the village's past, a truth that had been concealed for generations.
With newfound determination, Yuko rallied the villagers to acknowledge the village's dark history and to seek forgiveness for the sins of the past. In a moving ceremony at the Shōrin Shrine, the villagers offered their prayers, and Hana's spirit was finally set free.
As the first rays of dawn bathed Mizuki in golden light, Hana's ethereal form dissolved into a wisp of gratitude and serenity. The shrine, once shadowed by sorrow, now radiated with newfound peace.
"The Shrine in the Shadows" became a tale passed down through generations, a reminder that love and forgiveness could transcend even the darkest of curses. Mizuki continued to flourish, its shrine standing as a testament to the enduring power of redemption.
End of Chapter 2: "The Shrine in the Shadows"
Chapter 3: "The Haunting of the Geisha"
In the vibrant streets of 19th-century Tokyo, beneath the shimmering lanterns and behind the delicate allure of geisha, a haunting presence lurked—a presence that would forever change the life of a celebrated geisha named Kaede.
Chapter 3: "The Haunting of the Geisha"
In the heart of Tokyo's historic Yoshiwara district, Kaede was renowned as one of the most captivating and skilled geisha. Her beauty was ethereal, her dances mesmerizing, and her laughter like the tinkling of wind chimes. But beneath her porcelain makeup and the grace of her performances lay a heart heavy with secrets.
One cool autumn evening, as the lanterns cast their warm glow on the district, a newcomer arrived at the teahouse where Kaede performed. His name was Kaito, a handsome and enigmatic man with piercing eyes that seemed to see beyond the facade of the geisha. Kaede's heart quickened as their eyes met, and she felt a connection she had never experienced before.
As weeks turned into months, Kaede and Kaito's bond deepened, their love blossoming like the cherry blossoms in spring. But their love was a forbidden one, as Kaito was a samurai, and their worlds were as different as night and day.
One fateful night, Kaito revealed a dangerous secret to Kaede—he was involved in a plot against a powerful daimyo who ruled with cruelty and oppression. Kaito believed that by exposing the daimyo's corruption, he could bring justice to the people. He asked for Kaede's assistance in gathering information from the teahouse's influential patrons.
Reluctantly, Kaede agreed, and together, they embarked on a treacherous path filled with deceit and danger. As the days passed, they uncovered dark secrets that could expose the daimyo's crimes. However, their actions did not go unnoticed.
One evening, as Kaede performed for a gathering of influential men, a sinister figure appeared in the shadows. It was the vengeful spirit of a geisha named Akiko, who had perished in Yoshiwara under tragic circumstances. Her ghostly form was veiled in a blood-red kimono, and her eyes burned with malevolence.
Akiko's haunting began subtly—a chill in the air, whispers of despair, and a feeling of dread that hung over the teahouse like a shroud. Kaede, sensing the supernatural presence, knew that they had awakened a vengeful spirit.
Desperate to protect Kaede, Kaito sought the guidance of a local exorcist, who revealed the tragic story of Akiko. She had been a geisha in love with a samurai, but their forbidden love had led to betrayal and death. Her restless spirit sought vengeance on those who dared to love across societal boundaries.
With the exorcist's help, Kaito and Kaede embarked on a perilous journey to confront Akiko's spirit and offer her the peace she so desperately sought. In a climactic showdown, they faced the vengeful geisha, revealing the truth behind her betrayal and death.
As the first light of dawn bathed the Yoshiwara district, Akiko's spirit dissipated, her eyes filled with sorrow and resignation. The curse she had cast upon the teahouse lifted, and peace returned to the district.
Kaede and Kaito's love story continued, forever marked by the supernatural forces they had encountered. The teahouse thrived once more, its lanterns casting their warm glow over the enchanting district, where love knew no boundaries and forgiveness transcended even death.
"The Haunting of the Geisha" became a legend whispered among geisha in Yoshiwara, a testament to the enduring power of love and the consequences of forbidden desires in the mysterious world of Edo-era Tokyo.
End of Chapter 3: "The Haunting of the Geisha"
Chapter 4: "The Onryo's Revenge"
In the heart of a decaying city, where abandoned buildings stood as silent witnesses to forgotten tragedies, a group of urban explorers would stumble upon a place where the restless dead held their sinister dominion.
Chapter 4: "The Onryo's Revenge"
The city of Kurayami had fallen into disrepair, its once-thriving industries crumbling, and its streets echoing with the memories of better days. Among its many derelict structures was the forsaken Kurayami Hospital, a place whispered about only in fearful tales.
Rumors spoke of a curse that had befallen the hospital after a gruesome series of medical experiments in the early 20th century. Patients had been subjected to horrific procedures, and their agonized cries still seemed to reverberate through the corridors.
A group of urban explorers, lured by the thrill of the forbidden and the allure of the macabre, set their sights on Kurayami Hospital. Among them was Hiroshi, the group's leader, and Yumi, a budding photographer with an affinity for capturing the eerie beauty of abandoned places.
As the explorers entered the hospital's crumbling entrance, they were greeted by the musty scent of decay and the eerie silence of long-abandoned hallways. Shadows danced in the dim light as they ventured deeper into the forsaken building, their footsteps echoing like distant whispers.
The group's excitement turned to unease as they encountered signs of the hospital's dark past—rusty surgical instruments, bloodstained gurneys, and cryptic medical notes. Yumi's camera captured it all, each photograph revealing more about the hospital's gruesome history.
As night fell, the explorers gathered in the hospital's decrepit lobby, their flashlights casting trembling beams into the darkness. It was then that they heard it—a faint, mournful wail, like the keening of a soul in torment.
Hiroshi, the group's fearless leader, brushed off their concerns, attributing the sound to the wind or their imagination. But the cries grew louder and more anguished, echoing through the halls.
The group became separated as they navigated the labyrinthine corridors. Yumi, camera in hand, wandered into the hospital's disused psychiatric ward. There, in a shadowed corner, she saw her camera's flash reveal a horrifying apparition—an onryo, a vengeful spirit with long, disheveled hair and eyes filled with hatred.
The onryo's spectral form contorted with rage as it approached Yumi. Its icy fingers reached out, and she felt an otherworldly coldness pierce her very soul. She knew that this was the spirit of a patient who had suffered unimaginable horrors in the hospital.
As Yumi's companions searched for her, they stumbled upon the onryo's lair and witnessed the terrifying encounter. In a desperate bid to save Yumi, they searched for a way to pacify the vengeful spirit.
Through a combination of research and communication with a local historian, they learned the full extent of the hospital's atrocities. Armed with this knowledge, they returned to the onryo's domain to confront the spirit and offer it the peace it had been denied for so long.
In a climactic showdown, the group faced the onryo, revealing the hospital's dark secrets and acknowledging the suffering of the tormented souls within. With profound remorse, they begged for forgiveness on behalf of those who had perpetrated the atrocities.
As the first rays of dawn broke over Kurayami, the onryo's anguished wails transformed into a mournful sigh. The spirit, its wrath finally quelled, dissipated into the ether, leaving behind a sense of profound sadness and closure.
The group of urban explorers emerged from Kurayami Hospital, forever changed by their encounter with the supernatural. They had confronted the past and offered redemption to the restless dead, leaving the decaying city with a newfound sense of hope.
"The Onryo's Revenge" became a cautionary tale among urban explorers, a reminder that some places are best left undisturbed, and that the past, no matter how dark, can be confronted and reconciled.

Chapter 5: "The Dollmaker's Curse"
In a remote mountain village, nestled among mist-shrouded peaks, a master dollmaker crafted exquisite creations that captured the hearts of collectors worldwide. Yet, within her secluded workshop, a malevolent force lurked—one that would ensnare a curious journalist in a nightmarish world of living dolls and dark secrets.
Chapter 5: "The Dollmaker's Curse"
Hidden away in the secluded village of Ichiban, known only to those who ventured deep into the mountains, lived a master dollmaker named Ai. Her dolls were celebrated for their lifelike beauty and craftsmanship, with collectors from distant lands coveting her creations.
One brisk autumn morning, a journalist named Keiko received a cryptic letter from a source in Ichiban, hinting at a sinister mystery surrounding Ai's dolls. Intrigued by the enigmatic message, Keiko embarked on a journey to the remote village, determined to uncover the truth.
Ichiban was a place untouched by time, its cobblestone streets winding through dense forests and past centuries-old homes. The village exuded an eerie tranquility, and the locals spoke in hushed tones about Ai's dolls, rumored to be infused with a piece of the human soul.
Upon reaching Ai's workshop, Keiko was greeted by the dollmaker herself, a woman of grace and poise. The workshop was a treasure trove of exquisite dolls, their eyes seeming to follow Keiko's every move. Among them, a particular doll known as Hikari stood out—a hauntingly beautiful creation with ebony hair and obsidian eyes.
As Keiko delved deeper into the village's mysteries, she discovered that Hikari was believed to house the soul of a deceased child, a belief held by both Ai and the villagers. The doll's unsettling presence and the uncanny resemblance it bore to a girl named Mei, who had died tragically years ago, sent shivers down Keiko's spine.
Keiko's nights in Ichiban were filled with restless dreams of porcelain dolls that came to life. In these dreams, Hikari beckoned her to uncover the truth behind the dollmaker's creations. Guided by an inexplicable compulsion, Keiko embarked on a quest to unearth the dark secrets hidden within Ai's workshop.
As Keiko investigated further, she uncovered Ai's own tragic past—a story of unrequited love, loss, and a desperate desire to capture the essence of the human soul in her dolls. With each revelation, the line between the living and the lifeless blurred, and Keiko felt herself becoming entangled in a nightmarish world.
The dolls that had once been works of art now seemed to harbor malevolence. They moved of their own accord, their eyes filled with an eerie, lifelike intensity. Keiko realized that Ai's obsession had bound her to a sinister force, and her creations hungered for more than just existence.
In a chilling climax, Keiko confronted Ai and the curse that had gripped her creations. Together, they sought to break the curse's hold and release the trapped souls within the dolls.
As the moon hung low in the night sky, Ai performed a solemn ritual, guided by the spirit of Mei, whose essence had been captured in Hikari. The dolls, imbued with a restless energy, gathered around, their haunting eyes watching as the curse was lifted.
With a mournful sigh, the dolls' porcelain features softened, and their malevolence dissipated. The spirit of Mei was set free, and the dolls became lifeless once more, their beauty preserved in eternal stillness.
Ichiban returned to its peaceful slumber, and Keiko departed with a newfound appreciation for the power of art and the depths of human longing. The village's haunting tale of the dollmaker's curse served as a reminder that some obsessions could lead to the creation of something far more sinister than art itself.
End of Chapter 5: "The Dollmaker's Curse"
Chapter 6: "The Shadow in the Forest"
In a land steeped in history and tradition, the Aokigahara Forest, known as the "Suicide Forest," concealed a dark secret. Within its dense, ancient foliage, a group of hikers would embark on a journey that would lead them into the heart of a malevolent force.
Chapter 6: "The Shadow in the Forest"
Deep within the prefecture of Yamanashi, shrouded in a perpetual mist, lay the infamous Aokigahara Forest—an expanse of ancient woodland that held a dark reputation. Known as the "Suicide Forest," it had been a site of countless tragic deaths throughout the centuries.
A group of adventurous hikers, seeking to conquer the wilderness and challenge the forest's ominous legends, gathered on a chilly autumn morning. Among them was Akira, an experienced guide with a deep respect for the forest's history, and Yumi, a young woman in search of adventure and solace from her own troubled past.
The hikers ventured deep into the forest, their footsteps muffled by the thick blanket of moss and fallen leaves. The dense canopy above cast eerie shadows, and the trees seemed to whisper secrets of sorrow and despair.
As they trekked further into the woods, they began to notice strange occurrences—a disconcerting sense of being watched, distant whispers on the wind, and ghostly apparitions that flickered at the edge of their vision. Akira, the guide, attributed these phenomena to the forest's ominous reputation and urged the group to press on.
Yet, the forest's grip on their minds and senses tightened. Yumi, in particular, felt a strange connection to the haunting forces that seemed to lurk behind every tree. Inexplicable visions of tragedy and despair flashed before her eyes, and a sense of overwhelming dread enveloped her.
Night descended on the forest, and the hikers set up camp, their flickering campfire offering the only semblance of comfort in the oppressive darkness. It was then that Yumi encountered a spectral figure—a yūrei, her kimono tattered and her eyes empty voids.
The yūrei beckoned to Yumi, her voice a mournful echo. Unable to resist, Yumi followed the apparition into the depths of the forest, her companions unaware of her disappearance. The yūrei led her to a clearing where an ancient tree stood, its gnarled roots forming a grotesque face.
As Yumi approached the tree, she felt a malevolent presence—an ancient spirit of the forest itself. It spoke to her, revealing the tragic history of Aokigahara—the place where those who had lost hope sought refuge in death.
Yumi learned of the forest's vengeful guardian, a yūrei born of countless lost souls, whose suffering fueled its malevolence. It was the embodiment of the forest's sorrow, forever bound to torment those who ventured within.
Realizing that Yumi was now connected to the yūrei, her companions embarked on a desperate search to rescue her from the forest's clutches. With the guidance of Akira's knowledge and determination, they confronted the vengeful spirit, revealing the pain of their own pasts and the impact of their actions on the world around them.
As the first rays of dawn bathed Aokigahara in a pale light, the yūrei's malevolence waned, and its grip on Yumi loosened. With a final sigh, it dissipated into the morning mist, its haunting presence released from the forest.
Yumi was reunited with her companions, forever changed by her encounter with the malevolent spirit of Aokigahara. The forest's ominous reputation remained, a reminder of the darkness that could consume those who dared to venture too close to its heart.
"The Shadow in the Forest" served as a chilling testament to the mysteries of Aokigahara, where the past and the present intertwined, and the boundaries between life and death blurred beneath the ancient canopy.
End of Chapter 6: "The Shadow in the Forest"
Chapter 7: "The Haunting of the Yurei Inn"
In a remote village nestled among mist-covered mountains, a centuries-old inn held a sinister secret. When a weary traveler seeks refuge within its ancient walls, she becomes entangled in a web of supernatural mysteries that threaten to consume her soul.
Chapter 7: "The Haunting of the Yurei Inn"
The village of Okuyama was a hidden gem, nestled among towering peaks and blanketed in mist. Within this secluded haven stood the Yurei Inn, a centuries-old establishment steeped in history and whispered legends. Its age-old charm masked a sinister truth—a haunting presence that had plagued the inn for generations.
Amidst a dense fog, a lone traveler named Rei arrived in Okuyama, weary and seeking shelter from the elements. The Yurei Inn, with its rustic charm and flickering lanterns, seemed like the perfect refuge. Little did Rei know that her stay at the inn would unravel the mysteries hidden within its ancient walls.
Upon her arrival, Rei was greeted by the inn's elderly proprietress, Eiko, a woman whose weathered features and deep knowledge of the village's history hinted at a deeper connection to the inn's haunting past.
As Rei settled into her room, the oppressive atmosphere within the inn became palpable. Shadows seemed to dance in the corners of her vision, and strange, ghostly whispers echoed in the corridors. Unbeknownst to her, Rei had become a pawn in a centuries-old battle between the inn and the vengeful spirits that resided within.
In the dead of night, Rei awoke to a chilling presence at her bedside—an ethereal yurei, her white burial kimono flowing like a spectral river. The vengeful spirit's eyes held an insatiable hunger, and she reached out to Rei, her fingers icy and skeletal.
Rei's nights became torment as she encountered more yurei within the inn, each with their own tragic stories of betrayal, injustice, and unfulfilled desires. The spirits sought vengeance, and Rei's presence within the inn had awakened their malevolence.
Desperate to uncover the inn's secrets and free herself from the spirits' relentless pursuit, Rei sought the guidance of Eiko. The elderly proprietress revealed the tragic history of the inn—an establishment built on the suffering of countless souls who had met their demise within its walls.
Eiko's own family had been entangled in the inn's dark legacy, and she bore the weight of their deeds. Together, Rei and Eiko embarked on a journey to confront the yurei and offer them redemption, hoping to break the cycle of suffering that had plagued the inn for centuries.
In a harrowing confrontation with the vengeful spirits, Rei and Eiko unveiled the truth behind the inn's cursed history and acknowledged the pain of the souls that had been wronged. With heartfelt apologies and rituals of atonement, they sought to release the spirits from their torment.
As the first rays of dawn bathed Okuyama in a golden light, the yurei's spectral forms dissolved into the ether, their eyes filled with a mix of sorrow and gratitude. The Yurei Inn, once a place of darkness, now held the promise of redemption.
Rei departed from Okuyama, forever marked by her encounter with the supernatural. The Yurei Inn, now cleansed of its malevolent spirits, stood as a testament to the power of reconciliation and the hope of breaking the chains of the past.
"The Haunting of the Yurei Inn" became a cautionary tale among villagers, a reminder that the sins of the past could be confronted and forgiven, even in the face of vengeful spirits.
End of Chapter 7: "The Haunting of the Yurei Inn"
Chapter 8: "The Curse of the Haunted Kimono"
In the heart of Kyoto, where tradition and modernity intertwined, a family heirloom, an ancient kimono, carried a chilling curse that had plagued generations. A woman must delve into her family's history to uncover the origins of the curse and find a way to break it before it consumes her and her loved ones.
Chapter 8: "The Curse of the Haunted Kimono"
Kyoto, the city of a thousand temples, was a place where time seemed to stand still. Among the historic districts, the Nakamura family had passed down a treasured heirloom for generations—an exquisite silk kimono adorned with intricate embroidery, a relic of a bygone era.
The kimono had always been a source of fascination and reverence within the Nakamura family. It was said to be imbued with mystical powers, protecting its wearer from harm and misfortune. But beneath its ornate beauty lay a dark secret—a curse that had haunted the family for centuries.
Emi, the youngest of the Nakamura family, had grown up hearing stories of the kimono's mystical properties and the curse that clung to it. When her grandmother passed away, leaving the kimono in her care, Emi became the latest custodian of this fabled garment.
As the years passed, strange occurrences began to plague Emi and her family. The kimono seemed to have a malevolent presence, causing nightmares, unexplained accidents, and a growing sense of dread. Emi's husband, Toshiro, and their young daughter, Yuki, bore the brunt of the curse's effects.
Desperate to protect her loved ones, Emi embarked on a quest to uncover the origins of the curse and find a way to break it. She delved into her family's history, poring over ancient scrolls and consulting with local priests and scholars.
Through her research, Emi learned of a tragic love story that had been concealed for generations—a forbidden romance between a Nakamura ancestor and a woman from a rival clan. The lovers had been torn apart by a vengeful spirit, and their love had been sealed within the cursed kimono.
With newfound determination, Emi sought out the help of a renowned exorcist, who revealed that the curse could only be broken by reconciling the spirits of the star-crossed lovers and offering them a chance at eternal peace.
Emi, Toshiro, and Yuki embarked on a journey to the ancestral shrine of the Nakamura family, where they conducted a solemn ritual to appease the vengeful spirits. As they offered their prayers and made heartfelt apologies on behalf of their ancestors, a profound sense of forgiveness washed over them.
In a climactic moment, the cursed kimono transformed, its once malevolent aura dissipating into the ether. The spirits of the star-crossed lovers, now free from their torment, appeared before Emi and her family, their eyes filled with gratitude.
As the cherry blossoms rained down upon Kyoto, Emi, Toshiro, and Yuki returned home with a newfound sense of peace and closure. The kimono, no longer cursed, became a symbol of their family's resilience and the enduring power of love and forgiveness.
"The Curse of the Haunted Kimono" served as a reminder that the sins of the past could be atoned for and that the bonds of love and family could transcend even the darkest of curses.
End of Chapter 8: "The Curse of the Haunted Kimono"
Chapter 9: "The Mirror's Malevolence"
In a quiet suburban neighborhood, an antique mirror with a sinister past found its way into the home of a young couple. As they unwittingly unleashed the malevolent spirit trapped within, they must confront the mirror's dark history to save themselves and their family.
Chapter 9: "The Mirror's Malevolence"
In a serene suburban neighborhood, where cherry blossoms bloomed with each passing spring, lived a young couple, Hiroshi and Aiko, who were enamored with the charm of their new home. They had recently moved into a quaint, old-fashioned house that came with a peculiar antique mirror.
The mirror was ornate and beautiful, its frame adorned with delicate carvings of cherry blossoms. It had been left behind by the previous owner, a recluse who had passed away under mysterious circumstances. Little did Hiroshi and Aiko know that this mirror carried a malevolent secret.
As they settled into their new home, strange occurrences began to unfold. Reflections in the mirror seemed to distort, showing glimpses of eerie, shadowy figures lurking in the background. At night, whispers filled the room as if unseen voices murmured from within the glass.
Aiko, with her fascination for the occult, was the first to sense the mirror's sinister aura. She delved into research, uncovering tales of a cursed mirror that had plagued the previous owner's family for generations.
The mirror had once belonged to a vengeful spirit, a yūrei who had perished in despair. Its malevolence was bound to the glass, and those who possessed it were tormented by the spirit's relentless anger and sorrow.
Desperate to free themselves from the mirror's curse, Hiroshi and Aiko sought the guidance of a spiritual medium. Through a series of rituals and séances, they made contact with the vengeful spirit trapped within the mirror.
The spirit's story unfolded like a tragic drama—the yūrei had been a young woman in love with a man from a rival clan. Their love was forbidden, and when their secret was discovered, they had both met a grisly end. Her spirit had been bound to the mirror as punishment for her defiance of societal norms.
With the medium's help, Hiroshi and Aiko offered prayers and apologies on behalf of the mirror's original owner, seeking forgiveness for the wrongs committed against the vengeful spirit. They vowed to help the spirit find peace and redemption.
In a chilling climax, they conducted a final ritual, allowing the yūrei to pass on and find the solace she had been denied for centuries. As they gazed into the mirror one last time, they saw the spirit's reflection fade into the distance, her eyes filled with a mix of gratitude and farewell.
The mirror, now cleansed of its malevolence, became a symbol of hope and renewal for Hiroshi and Aiko. Their family flourished, and the cherry blossoms in their garden bloomed with newfound vibrancy, a testament to the enduring power of love and forgiveness.
"The Mirror's Malevolence" served as a chilling reminder that even the most innocuous objects could carry dark secrets, and that confronting the past and seeking redemption could break the bonds of even the most malevolent curses.
End of Chapter 9: "The Mirror's Malevolence"
Chapter 10: "The Bridge to the Beyond"
In a remote mountain village, isolated from the modern world, a historic bridge served as a link between the living and the dead. When a group of travelers crossed its ancient planks, they would discover the chilling truth behind the bridge's supernatural origins.
Chapter 10: "The Bridge to the Beyond"
Deep within the heart of the Japanese mountains, nestled among ancient forests and shrouded in mist, lay the village of Yamanokawa. It was a place where tradition and superstition still held sway, and the bridge that spanned the river was both a lifeline and a gateway to the unknown.
A group of adventurous travelers, drawn by the allure of Yamanokawa's untouched beauty, embarked on a journey to explore the village's remote reaches. Among them were Kaito, a historian with an insatiable curiosity, and Mia, a photographer who sought to capture the essence of this secluded world.
The village's centerpiece was the Akane Bridge, a weathered structure made of ancient wood and adorned with centuries-old lanterns. Its planks creaked with the weight of history, and the river below whispered tales of lives long gone.
As the travelers ventured deeper into Yamanokawa, they discovered that the villagers held a profound reverence for the bridge. It was said to be a link between the living and the dead, a place where offerings were made to appease the spirits that dwelled in the surrounding forest.
As night descended, the travelers set up camp near the Akane Bridge, its lanterns casting an eerie, flickering glow on the river's surface. It was then that they heard the sound—a mournful melody that seemed to emanate from the bridge itself.
Mia, driven by curiosity, followed the haunting tune to the bridge's edge. There, bathed in an otherworldly light, she saw a figure—a woman in a white kimono, her long hair flowing like an ebony waterfall.
The woman, whose name was Hikari, revealed herself to be a yūrei, a spirit bound to the Akane Bridge for centuries. She had once been a young bride whose love had been torn apart by a tragic accident on her wedding day. Her spirit was eternally linked to the bridge, where she waited for her beloved to return.
Kaito, the historian, delved into the village's archives and uncovered the tragic story of Hikari's past. It was a tale of love and loss, of a bride whose life had been cut short, and a groom whose heart had been forever scarred by grief.
With newfound determination, the travelers sought to reunite the spirits of Hikari and her beloved. They embarked on a journey deep into the forest, following a path laden with offerings and prayers.
At the heart of the forest, they discovered an ancient shrine dedicated to love and reconciliation. There, in a poignant ceremony, they offered heartfelt prayers and apologies on behalf of the villagers and the groom who had never returned.
As the first light of dawn broke over Yamanokawa, a sense of serenity washed over the Akane Bridge. Hikari's spectral form dissolved into the river's mist, her eyes filled with a mix of longing and gratitude.
The travelers departed from Yamanokawa, forever changed by their encounter with the supernatural. The Akane Bridge, now freed from its haunting past, stood as a testament to the enduring power of love and the hope of reuniting even in the afterlife.
"The Bridge to the Beyond" became a legend whispered among villagers, a reminder that some bonds could transcend time and that the spirit of love endured even in the face of eternity.

  • Meta is launching a new TweetDeck-like experience for Threads, enhancing the web version with customizable, column-stacked feeds for users.
  • This interface aims to address Threads power users' frustration with the default algorithm-powered feed by offering an alternative that prioritizes user customization and real-time updates.
  • Users selected for the testing phase can tailor their feeds with specific searches, tags, accounts, saved posts, and notifications, with options for columns to auto-update.
  • Aside from the main interface update, Meta is also introducing a chronological recent tab for search results on Threads to provide a quality-assessed, yet time-organized viewing option.
  • The initiative for the new user interface reflects a responsive strategy to user feedback and evolving market demands, highlighting Meta's dedication to improving user experience.
TweetDeck, initially a third-party application for enhancing Twitter usage with features like multiple account support and customizable feeds, was so influential in its approach to social media management that it was acquired by Twitter in 2011. Its functionality paved the way for similar tools and influenced Meta's new development for Threads.
"If you’re in the test, you can choose to keep things simple with a single feed, or add separate columns for your favorite searches, tags, accounts, saved posts, and notifications," explains Meta spokesperson Seine Kim.
Despite the dominance of algorithm-powered feeds in defining what content users see online, the demand for customized and real-time information streams remains strong. This trend underscores the user's desire for control over their digital environments, a significant shift from passive consumption to active curation of content.

2024.05.17 07:33 Still_Effect7818 1. 5Mins — micro-education for corporations

At first, YouTube took the work away from blogs, people stopped reading long texts. Now TikTok sets the trends of media consumption — people no longer want to watch long videos.
Then why do companies still hope that employees will take long and boring refresher courses? Now the average return on online courses is 3%, and this figure is falling every year.
Startup 5Mins decided to fix this problem using its own LMS platform based on short videos. The training takes place every day and does not require much stress — all lessons are gamified and last up to 5 minutes. They consolidate knowledge by interval repetition of past lessons and various interactive activities. At the end of 2022, the startup attracted $5.7M investments.
More examples. In 2021, DeepHow raised $9M of investment in an AI-based worker training service. The expert records once on video how to do the job correctly. A smart algorithm cuts the video into a step-by-step plan and translates it into any language.
Arist — interactive courses in messengers. Also, in 2022, $12M of investments were raised.
The French startup Revyze tried to become a "TikTok for education" and raised €2M of investment a couple of years ago. The service focuses on preparing high school students for their final exams.
Zigazoo — educational short videos for children. Recently, the startup raised $100M of investments.

2024.05.17 07:29 Folded_Sauce Need help finding the best NASCAR game

I recently tried heat 5 and I don't like the handling model, so I'm trying to find an older NASCAR game. I have 3 requirements: -Must have a good handling model (similar to NASCAR '15) -Must be able to host a private match -Must be able to race against AI in multiplayer. My brother and I always used to play NASCAR '15 split screen on our Xbox 360, but we've long since moved out of our parents house and are in different areas of the country. It'd be great to get that same split screen experience, but in multiplayer. We tried Heat 5 and didn't like the handling model. We also tried NASCAR '15 for PC, but you can't fill the rest of the field with AI in multiplayer (you can only race against other players). Any suggestions??
