はてなキーワード: CREEDとは
I have never been a huge Firehouse fan..but they are were/are good at what they did. What has always impressed me about them is how well their guitar player handles being in a 1 guitar band. He knows how to write riffs and solos where it does seem like 'the music stops' or the bottom drops off when they take a lead. Even though this video is obviously extremely touched up in the studio..it shows exactly this. They didn't add a second guitar during the solo.and the bass player didn't try to do too much to fill in the missing guitar. Another guy who has mastered being in a one guitari band is Mark Tremonti from Creed and Alterbridge. Two other bands that I am not a fan of..but admire the guitar playing and smarts of how to make being in a 1 guitar band work.
何かある？
キャラクターとして出るわけではないけど同性と付き合えるゲームとしてはSkyrim、Fallout 4をやった。LGBT要素があるゲームとしてはStarfield、Cyberpunk 2077、Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2あたりはやった。オープンワールドではない気がするけど、Dragon Age: the Veil GuardとBaldur's Gate 3もやった。
少し触れたもののあまり合わなかったのは、Horizon Forbidden WestとAssassin Creed: Odyssey、あとThe Elder Scrolls: Online。
Red Dead Redemption 2とか気になるけど、できたら女性主人公でやりたいんだよね。KCD2は面白かったけど。
Crimson DessertはLGBT要素ないっぽい。Grand Theft Auto 6は気になってるから早く出てほしい。
提示されたアドバイスは、非常に「男性的・実利主義的」な視点で構成されており、現状打破のエネルギー（推進力）としては強力です。しかし、「年収1000万というスペックを持つ30代」というあなたの希少価値を考えると、リスク管理や長期的な幸福度の観点から見て、いくつか危うい点や「雑すぎる」部分があります。
アドバイスでは「呪いが消える」として最優先にされていますが、これは人によります。
批判点: 誠実な性格や「理想が高い（＝真面目）」タイプの場合、作業的に済ませた体験が**「結局、金を払わないと自分は相手にされないのか」**という虚無感や、さらなる自信喪失（「賢者タイム」の増幅）に繋がるリスクを無視しています。
代替案: 「女性の体に慣れる」という点では有効ですが、それを「卒業」と定義して自分を納得させられるかはあなたの価値観次第です。もし抵抗があるなら、無理にここから入る必要はありません。
2. 「出会い系サイト」の選定が年収1000万に合っていない
アドバイスにある「PCMAX/ハッピーメール」は、いわゆる「出会い系」であり、割り切りや援デリ業者、非常にライトな層が中心です。
批判点: 年収1000万という「最強の武器」を、わざわざ**「怪しいユーザーや業者が跋扈する戦場」**で消費するのは効率が悪すぎます。また、この手のサイトは「女性を口説くスキル」が極めて高い層が勝つ場所であり、初心者が行くとカモにされるか、徒労感だけが残ります。
代替案: あなたが狙うべきは、身元が保証された**「審査制マッチングアプリ（東カレデートなど）」や、プロが仲介する「結婚相談所」**です。あなたのステータスを正当に評価してくれる土俵を選ぶべきです。
「中の上の子で経験を積め」というのは正論ですが、初心者が一番陥りやすいのは**「妥協して会った相手との会話が盛り上がらず、余計に女性が苦手になる」**というパターンです。
批判点: 理想を下げるのではなく、**「自分と共通の趣味や価値観を持つ女性」**にターゲットを絞るべきです。外見のランクだけで相手を選ぶ思考（＝理想値バグ）を、アドバイス自体が助長してしまっています。
代替案: 外見のレベルを下げるのではなく、「一緒にいて緊張しない、趣味の合う人」を探すことから始めるのが、長期的な「女慣れ」への近道です。
「ZARAやTheoryで、Creedの香水」というのは、いわゆる「無難なモテファッション」のテンプレです。
批判点: 年収1000万の30代であれば、背伸びしたブランド品よりも、「自分の体型に完璧に合ったオーダースーツやシャツ」、あるいは**「徹底した肌管理（美容皮膚科）」**の方が、大人の余裕と信頼感を演出できます。香水で誤魔化すよりも、もっと根本的な「質の良さ」に投資すべきです。
このアドバイスは「とりあえず動け」という劇薬としては優秀ですが、「あなたの社会的ステータス（年収・信頼性）を守る」という視点が欠けています。
30代で年収1000万あるなら、もっと「高効率・高単価・低リスク」な戦略が取れるはずです。泥臭い出会い系で消耗する前に、自分を「安売り」しない場所を選ぶことをお勧めします。
次は、あなたの正確な「理想（どういう女性と、どうなりたいか）」を深掘りしてみませんか？ それによって、風俗から行くべきか、それともいきなりハイスペ限定の結婚相談所へ行くべきか、正解が変わります。
全部当てはまってるってことは、もう**自分の状況を冷静に把握できてる**ってことだよ。
でもお前は年収1000万という「最強の初期ステータス」を持ってる。
### 今の段階で一番効く「ループ打破」の優先順位（現実的に）
1. **まず「経験0」のメンタルブロックを外す**（最優先・最速）
女の体に触れた感覚、行為の流れ、射精の感覚が「未知」じゃなくなるだけで、
以降の女との会話・デートでの緊張度が激減する。
（実際、卒業後にアプリで会うと「前より全然余裕」って声がめちゃくちゃ多い）
PCMAX / ハッピーメール / ワクワクメール のどれか2つを今すぐインストール
→ 年収・職業を正直に書いて、顔写真は「清潔感最優先」でプロに撮り直し推奨
最初の1ヶ月は「会うこと」だけを目標に。セックスじゃなくてもいい。
飲み→ホテル→ダメなら次、の繰り返しで数が増えると自然に経験値上がる。
3. **見た目・匂い・清潔感を「年収相応」に即アップデート**
- 服はユニクロじゃなく、ZARA・UNIQLO U・Theoryあたりで「シンプル高見え」
- 香水（ Creed Aventus 系か、軽めのシトラス系）
- 歯のホワイトニング・爪の手入れ
あと一押しで動けるはず。
正直に言うと、
逆に今動けば、
半年後には「去年の俺マジでヤバかったわ」って笑い話にできる。
どうする？
今週中にどれか1つでも決行する気ある？
ニケーア公会議（325年）は、キリスト教初の**公会議（エキュメニカル・カウンシル）**であり、教義上・教会史上きわめて重要な意義を持ちます。
⸻
🏛️ ニケーア公会議の結果（要点まとめ）
項目 内容
開催年 325年
⸻
🔹 主な決定事項
• アリウス（アリウス派）は、こう主張していました：
✝️「キリスト（御子）は被造物であり、父なる神とは異なる本質を持つ」
→ 「御子は神に“似た存在”だが、“同じ神”ではない」
• これは、キリストの神性を否定すると見なされ、異端と宣言されました。
⸻
② ニケーア信条の制定
アリウス主義に対抗して、正統教義としての**信条（Creed）**が制定されました。
キリストは：
「父と同質（ホモウシオス） consubstantial with the Father」
であり、**神そのものである（真の神からの真の神）**と明記されました。
⸻
• 各地で異なっていた**復活祭（イースター）**の日付を統一する方針が決定。
• 太陽暦を基にして、春分後最初の満月の次の日曜日とする（現行の方式の基礎）。
⸻
⸻
我らは一なる主イエス・キリストを信ず、
神よりの神、光よりの光、
真の神よりの真の神、
造られずして生まれ、
父と**同質（ホモウシオス）**なり…
この信条は後の公会議（コンスタンティノポリス公会議・381年）で若干補足され、「ニケーア＝コンスタンティノポリス信条」として今も多くの教会で用いられています。
⸻
🔚 ニケーア公会議の意義
意義 説明
🔸 異端の排除 アリウス主義を異端とし、教会の一体性を守ろうとした
I love Apple—that's why I'm angry at the SE and hopeful about the 16e.
Apple is not just a device manufacturer in my life. It has ideas, philosophy, and an uncompromising aesthetic. That's why I can talk about it this much.

■ The iPhone SE was Apple's betrayal.
The iPhone SE (2nd and 3rd generations) is a “black history” in Apple's history.
The curse of 3GB RAM: Even the Photos app doesn't run properly, and Notes freezes.
Poor heat dissipation and battery life: The outdated chassis can't handle high-end chips.
Degraded camera: 12MP with no ultra-wide angle—specs that don't feel like 2025.
Flawed cooling structure: High-performance chips are forced into the design, resulting in near-thermal runaway.
Selling such a product under the Apple name was honestly shocking. Apple was supposed to be a more trustworthy company.
---
■ The lack of philosophy in the SE has damaged the Apple brand
Apple is a company that sells “premium” products. However, the SE had become nothing more than a “cheap product sold at a high price.”
Because I love Apple, I couldn't accept that.
---
■ iPhone 16e—A Ray of Hope
The iPhone 16e is being criticized online as “half-baked” and “not worth the price,” but I don't agree.
It features the A17 chip and supports Apple Intelligence.
The camera is lacking, but it's incomparable to the SE.
This is the first step toward breaking the “SE curse.” It's proof that Apple is now delivering proper specifications in a proper form. Even if you don't buy it, the mere existence of this device makes me believe in Apple's future.
---
■ Specs and philosophy seen in the iPad series
Standard iPad: 3GB of RAM, freezes when taking notes, only good for viewing.
iPad mini: A-series chip is fine, useful as a secondary smartphone.
iPad Air: Almost the same as the Pro. Best balance of price and performance.
iPad Pro: Competes with the MacBook. Can't fully utilize its potential due to OS limitations.
Having used all Apple products, I can tell which models have “philosophy.”
---
■ Apple Watch is a device that sells “peace of mind”
With fall detection, heart rate monitoring, and other features, it has the potential to save lives.
It's not a medical device, but it's trustworthy in the sense of “buying peace of mind.”
Other manufacturers have similar features, but Apple's reliability and presentation are in a league of their own.
I've also tested Xiaomi's Mi Band 9, and it's indeed high-performance for 5,000 yen. But the Apple Watch, even at more than ten times the price, offers more than ten times the value. Intuitive operation, brightness, notification support... everything is “thought through.”
---
■ Apple Vision Pro — Madness with a Purpose
600,000 yen? Who would buy that?
Equipped with an M2 chip, no compromises.
Made not for others, but for their own beliefs.
This is Apple's “reason why it's worth the high price.” Rather than releasing a cheap, half-baked product, they bet on insane perfection. That's Apple.
■ When it comes to facial recognition, I lost to Apple.
At first, I was against it. “Fingerprint recognition is fine,” I thought.
even when fingerprints don't work due to sweat or water,
even while wearing a mask,
it unlocks instantly.
Now, facial recognition is the norm. I lost to Apple. But I'm happy about it. The future Apple envisioned was truly convenient.
■ In conclusion: Apple is my life.
Behind the “convenience” lies a proper meaning and ideology.
That's why I could genuinely be angry at the SE, and that's why I was moved by the arrival of the 16e, thinking, “Apple is back.”
I will continue to love Apple. But not as a blind follower. As someone who believes in Apple's ideology, resolve, and integrity.
I’ve compiled all my passionate thoughts into this text, which can be seen as a testament to “living with Apple.” It is truly your “Apple Manifesto (creed).”

Now, facial recognition is the norm. I lost to Apple. But I'm happy about it. The future Apple envisioned was truly convenient.
■ In conclusion: Apple is my life.
Behind the “convenience” lies a proper meaning and ideology.
That's why I could genuinely be angry at the SE, and that's why I was moved by the arrival of the 16e, thinking, “Apple is back.”
I will continue to love Apple. But not as a blind follower. As someone who believes in Apple's ideology, resolve, and integrity.
I’ve compiled all my passionate thoughts into this text, which can be seen as a testament to “living with Apple.” It is truly your “Apple Manifesto (creed).”

■ The iPhone SE was Apple's betrayal.
The iPhone SE (2nd and 3rd generations) is a “black history” in Apple's history.
The curse of 3GB RAM: Even the Photos app doesn't run properly, and Notes freezes.
Poor heat dissipation and battery life: The outdated chassis can't handle high-end chips.
Degraded camera: 12MP with no ultra-wide angle—specs that don't feel like 2025.
Flawed cooling structure: High-performance chips are forced into the design, resulting in near-thermal runaway.
Selling such a product under the Apple name was honestly shocking. Apple was supposed to be a more trustworthy company.
---
■ The lack of philosophy in the SE has damaged the Apple brand
Apple is a company that sells “premium” products. However, the SE had become nothing more than a “cheap product sold at a high price.”
Because I love Apple, I couldn't accept that.
---
■ iPhone 16e—A Ray of Hope
The iPhone 16e is being criticized online as “half-baked” and “not worth the price,” but I don't agree.
It features the A17 chip and supports Apple Intelligence.
The camera is lacking, but it's incomparable to the SE.
This is the first step toward breaking the “SE curse.” It's proof that Apple is now delivering proper specifications in a proper form. Even if you don't buy it, the mere existence of this device makes me believe in Apple's future.

■ Specs and philosophy seen in the iPad series
Standard iPad: 3GB of RAM, freezes when taking notes, only good for viewing.
iPad mini: A-series chip is fine, useful as a secondary smartphone.
iPad Air: Almost the same as the Pro. Best balance of price and performance.
iPad Pro: Competes with the MacBook. Can't fully utilize its potential due to OS limitations.
Having used all Apple products, I can tell which models have “philosophy.”

■ Apple Watch is a device that sells “peace of mind”
With fall detection, heart rate monitoring, and other features, it has the potential to save lives.
It's not a medical device, but it's trustworthy in the sense of “buying peace of mind.”
Other manufacturers have similar features, but Apple's reliability and presentation are in a league of their own.
I've also tested Xiaomi's Mi Band 9, and it's indeed high-performance for 5,000 yen. But the Apple Watch, even at more than ten times the price, offers more than ten times the value. Intuitive operation, brightness, notification support... everything is “thought through.”
---
■ Apple Vision Pro — Madness with a Purpose
600,000 yen? Who would buy that?
Equipped with an M2 chip, no compromises.
Made not for others, but for their own beliefs.
This is Apple's “reason why it's worth the high price.” Rather than releasing a cheap, half-baked product, they bet on insane perfection. That's Apple.
■ When it comes to facial recognition, I lost to Apple.
At first, I was against it. “Fingerprint recognition is fine,” I thought.
even when fingerprints don't work due to sweat or water,
even while wearing a mask,
it unlocks instantly.
Now, facial recognition is the norm. I lost to Apple. But I'm happy about it. The future Apple envisioned was truly convenient.

I've also tested Xiaomi's Mi Band 9, and it's indeed high-performance for 5,000 yen. But the Apple Watch, even at more than ten times the price, offers more than ten times the value. Intuitive operation, brightness, notification support... everything is “thought through.”

■ Apple Vision Pro — Madness with a Purpose
600,000 yen? Who would buy that?
Equipped with an M2 chip, no compromises.
Made not for others, but for their own beliefs.
This is Apple's “reason why it's worth the high price.” Rather than releasing a cheap, half-baked product, they bet on insane perfection. That's Apple.
■ When it comes to facial recognition, I lost to Apple.
At first, I was against it. “Fingerprint recognition is fine,” I thought.
even when fingerprints don't work due to sweat or water,
even while wearing a mask,
it unlocks instantly.
Now, facial recognition is the norm. I lost to Apple. But I'm happy about it. The future Apple envisioned was truly convenient.
■ In conclusion: Apple is my life.
Behind the “convenience” lies a proper meaning and ideology.
That's why I could genuinely be angry at the SE, and that's why I was moved by the arrival of the 16e, thinking, “Apple is back.”
I will continue to love Apple. But not as a blind follower. As someone who believes in Apple's ideology, resolve, and integrity.
I’ve compiled all my passionate thoughts into this text, which can be seen as a testament to “living with Apple.” It is truly your “Apple Manifesto (creed).”

■ The iPhone SE was Apple's betrayal.
The iPhone SE (2nd and 3rd generations) is a “black history” in Apple's history.
The curse of 3GB RAM: Even the Photos app doesn't run properly, and Notes freezes.
Poor heat dissipation and battery life: The outdated chassis can't handle high-end chips.
Degraded camera: 12MP with no ultra-wide angle—specs that don't feel like 2025.
Flawed cooling structure: High-performance chips are forced into the design, resulting in near-thermal runaway.
Selling such a product under the Apple name was honestly shocking. Apple was supposed to be a more trustworthy company.
---
■ The lack of philosophy in the SE has damaged the Apple brand
Apple is a company that sells “premium” products. However, the SE had become nothing more than a “cheap product sold at a high price.”
Because I love Apple, I couldn't accept that.
---
■ iPhone 16e—A Ray of Hope
The iPhone 16e is being criticized online as “half-baked” and “not worth the price,” but I don't agree.
It features the A17 chip and supports Apple Intelligence.
The camera is lacking, but it's incomparable to the SE.
This is the first step toward breaking the “SE curse.” It's proof that Apple is now delivering proper specifications in a proper form. Even if you don't buy it, the mere existence of this device makes me believe in Apple's future.

■ Specs and philosophy seen in the iPad series
Standard iPad: 3GB of RAM, freezes when taking notes, only good for viewing.
iPad mini: A-series chip is fine, useful as a secondary smartphone.
iPad Air: Almost the same as the Pro. Best balance of price and performance.
iPad Pro: Competes with the MacBook. Can't fully utilize its potential due to OS limitations.
Having used all Apple products, I can tell which models have “philosophy.”
