Why the hell would you go on a book community, open a discussion post that is clearly asking for personal opinions and go “I dunno lol go ask chatgpt”. I would’ve banned you too tbqh.

Yeah, I’m just memeing. The first thought in my head when I read her name was “…and Zendaya?? Oh-ho damn…”

The babies were introduced as a plot device in Shrek the Third in 2007 and no one really cared about them. They returned in Shrek Forever After, this time as characters instead of stakes, but not many people were interested to see another Shrek movie after Shrek the Third. Forever After was kinda decent though, from what I remember. Compared to 3 at least.

You can find Friendship is Witchcraft on Youtube, it’s some of the best the fandom ever made. (Also, the show itself is pretty good, would recommend.)

Zendaya is a former Disney Channel star who is best known for voicing Shrek’s daughter Felicia in the recently released teaser for Shrek 5.
- Comment on Anime with alternate orders 2 days ago:
The inspiration for the thread: I’m rewatching Tatami Galaxy and I remembered that I accidentally watched it in reverse order the last time. It worked surprisingly well, but I did watch episode 11 again at the end, after I realized what had gone wrong. There’s some time shenanigans anyway, and every episode contains about as many callbacks as callbacks-to-future-episodes and that doesn’t change in reverse order.

- Comment on Is this green or blue? 2 days ago:
If that was the red-green distribution, no one would be arguing whether it was a greenish-red or a reddish-green, because we all know about yellow. OP’s color is teal.
- Comment on Is this green or blue? 2 days ago:
I did two runs, the first ended at 177 (three more greens than 76%of respondents), the second at 174 (the exact median). I think the methodology is flawed, there’s a little randomness at the threshold so you need to gather more data to be certain of a person’s perception. You’ll see that the same hue can seem bluer when it follows a strong green, or greener when it follows a weak green.

Yes, I was born after Jewish Nazis murdered Israeli prime minister Rabin for daring to broker peace between Israel and the PLO.
- Comment on anime that are built diffrent 3 days ago:
One anime that really is built differently, in structure, art style and themes:
Tatami Galaxy
Every episode is the main character making a different choice to try and fulfill his dream. It’s like Groundhog Day, but where Mr Groundhog eventually manages a perfect day, Mr Tatami learns to accept the imperfection of life.

Shuumatsu Train isn’t difficult to watch! It is the most classic of classic plots: a band of heroes sets off to save their village and faces all kinds of trials along the way, making them stronger as individuals and as a group, before defeating the Great Evil and saving the princess. It also has trains.
- Comment on anime that are built diffrent 3 days ago:
Seconding Penguindrum as “built different”. It’s a classic imo, but it isn’t discussed enough, probably because everyone (like me) is convinced it isn’t a real anime but a fever dream they had after watching too much anime.

Jerboa shows the link (and options of how to open it) when you long-press. It would be nice if we could set that as the default behavior though, I never open a link before seeing where it goes first.

The bandwidth of a station wagon just keeps increasing with advances in storage technology.
But a 10Gb/s line will do about 100TB in a day, so there’s not that many situations left where you have enough data to make the station wagon worth the effort. Wikipedia has a few examples, with the most recent being a truck doing 100PB for AWS. I think we passed station wagon station 10 years ago.

I think instead of having less representatives in government, we should make government smaller by having physically smaller representatives. Like children, or gnomes.
- Comment on We're in the endgame now 3 weeks ago:
They all share a belief in a “natural hierarchy”. Whether that hierarchy emerges from God, the Market, or Pure Ancestors, they’re very similar arguments and they all lead to similar results: An imbalance of power and a group of people (with power) who justify that imbalance with the imbalance itself (I’m better because I have power. I should have power because I’m better.)
- Comment on Can you eat soap for acid reflux? 3 weeks ago:
You’ll notice the gas, but the water comes from the acid being neutralized and won’t really be detectable. You just drank a glass of water too, that’s way more water than a tablespoon of baking soda can produce.

No no, he was just a little confused, but he meant alethiometer. It’s like a compass but it points to the truth, which is pretty darn useful when trying to find your moral heading.
- Comment on What do you consider the saddest anime? 1 month ago:
You didn’t like season 2? I honestly thought it was a great addition. S1 is a definite 11/10 and S2 is a 9 on its own, but watching S1 and S2 together is still a 10/10. I think the climax of S1 hits even harder when the seasons are combined.

- Comment on Same Same But Different 2 months ago:
I give a 4 to anime that were just barely good enough to finish. If the last episode is even sorta decent, it’s often a 6. I have given a 1 to an anime once, when it was not quite bad enough to drop after episode 1 and made a huge step down in episode 2. If I drop after 1 episode, it doesn’t even make it to my list.
- Comment on Now I get it what Dark Souls genre mean. 2 months ago:
You could randomize the order of the labels and it would still be true. The main difference between lewd and non-lewd isn’t the amount of clothes, but the way the clothes hug to the body. If you’re confused how a person would ever get their body into their clothes, they’re actually already naked and the artist just doesn’t want to admit it yet.
So in a way, it’s the Dark Souls armor that is the real fanservice here.
- Comment on Just Fucking Ask AI - your friendly reminder 2 months ago:
With that description I’d expected it to be the complete opposite of what it actually is. I have a colleague who’s always like “according to ChatGPT…” and I have to figure out if it lucked out this time or he just believed some bullshit again. It’s really a coin toss, but when I correct him, he’ll go right back to the coin toss machine with the new information and go “see, it corrected itself!” No, you stupid motherfucker, I corrected you and you influenced the statistical language model to spit out different words this time, but it’ll go right back to being wrong, just like you.

That saying works for trees. We didn’t make trees obsolete with better technology.
- Comment on Anon questions our energy sector 3 months ago:
And much of the PR problem is related to waste. The main push towards alternative energy sources comes from people worried about the long term consequences of burning fossil fuels. These same people worry about the long term consequences of nuclear waste production, so nuclear sabotages itself on this front.
