I knew this was about financial assets, but I couldn’t help but think, “Ya know, it sure would be nice if all of the Russian assets in the US government got locked in a Swiss freezer.”

Reality has a doom bias.
- Comment on We are so cooked 1 day ago:
The news for insects is not entirely bad, emerald ash borers are finding the ability to survive in areas that were formerly too cold for them. This allows them to kill more trees turning them into kindling for lightning strikes and other fire starting events.
Had me in the first half, not gonna lie.

When I first started seeing my now-spouse, she commented that she thought it would be nice if I added some flavor to my wardrobe that wasn’t black tee shirts with optional band/sportsball/nerd printing. So I gradually added some colors, but quickly realized that the brighter the shirt, the worse it looked on my fat gut. And it became tedious trying to find desaturated or earth tones in casual clothing (especially polos for work).
I eventually gave up and just started buying cheap black tees in bulk every few years, oversized so I could throw them in the dryer instead of hang drying them like I’d been doing for years to preserve the prints etc. The spoons set aside for wardrobe choices were better allowed elsewhere.

- Comment on What are your top three recommendations for someone new to anime? 5 days ago:
Echoing others’ thoughts that it very much depends on what the person enjoys in general. But it’s very hard to go wrong with Cowboy Bebop. If they lean towards fantasy, Record of Lodoss War. If they want a movie instead of a series, something from Miyazaki/Ghibli.
- Comment on Other than a faulty charging port, is there any reason to use a wireless phone charger over wired? 5 days ago:
The extra space isn’t going to cause more heat on its own, but the phone is still going to get warm, and a thick case can prevent that heat from dissipating properly. A good charging design will already have taken this into account, and start limiting current if the temp gets too high.
The primary downside to using induction charging through a case is decreased power transfer efficiency due to the greater distance.

Was this corporate spokesperson authorized to talk to this outlet about this topic? Just because they’re a spokesperson doesn’t mean they can talk freely.

So, OP wants weird anime. “Anime” anime.
- Odd Taxi
- Ping Pong Club
- Excel Saga
- FLCL
- Gantz
- Otaku No Video
- Way of the Househusband
- Golden Boy
- Colorful (of note, the English dub is heavily adapted to the point where it can’t really be considered accurate. But it is faithful. The format helps. This approach doesn’t often work, but it does here.)
- Cromartie High School
- Paranoia Agent
- Nerima Daikon Brothers
- Puni Puni Poemy
- Great Teacher Onizuka
- Gundam-San
- Oruchuban Ebichu
Depending on which flavor of weird one is going for, not all of these are going to scratch that itch.

- Comment on Should I DIY this? (Electrical) 1 month ago:
It sounds like the job should be pretty simple. The mechanics of household electrical are very straightforward. I would definitely lean on your BIL here: discuss the project, not just what to do and pitfalls to avoid, but also have him give a vibe check on your understanding. He knows you better than any of us do.

My old company solved that problem by making everything high priority by default, with efforts directed by the whims of the CTO.
