Apparently it’s called a Katsugyo Bag to carry/transport expensive fish for whatever reason.

Also for a lot of people, their social circle is partly there.
I get that, but at this point I’d actively try to get them to use a different site/app. I managed to move large parts of my friends and my whole family to Signal. I’m now trying to get some to transition from Discord to Matrix, though moving there has definitely been not as smooth.
It should be much easier with Twitter, there are a bunch of very similar and usable alternatives. You just have to put in some work and convince people with solid arguments and support.
- Comment on German football club leaves X, warning Elon Musk ‘capable of influencing German election’ 2 days ago:
There are a lot of leftists still “fighting the good fight” on Xitter, even if the platform is pitted against them and all they do is drive engagement to it. I never understood why some people can’t bring themselves to leave. I left reddit for much less.
- Comment on Elon's Death Machine (aka Tesla) Mows Down Deer at Full Speed , Keeps Going on "Autopilot" 2 weeks ago:
The poster, who pays Tesla CEO Elon Musk for a subscription to the increasingly far-right social media site, claimed that the FSD software “works awesome” and that a deer in the road is an “edge case.” One might argue that edge cases are actually very important parts of any claimed autonomy suite, given how drivers check out when they feel the car is doing the work, but this owner remains “insanely grateful” to Tesla regardless.
How are these people always such pathetic suckers.

Interesting to see that China is ranking fairly low on the index and Vietnam so high. Really didn’t expect that.
- Comment on Reddit is making sitewide protests basically impossible 1 month ago:
They heavily biased towards China and Russia, two countries with fascist governments. That kinda speaks for itself, even if they claim to be communists or socialists.
- Comment on Mahle CEO Arnd Franz says hydrogen will fail without fossil fuels 1 month ago:
The single advantage hydrogen has over batteries is that the “refueling” is pretty much instantaneous. If charging infrastructure and technology improves, there will be no reason to bother with it anymore.

Why? Doesn’t look like there’s any explanation for this move.
- Comment on Founder and CEO of Telegram messaging service arrested in France 2 months ago:
If the CEO of Lyft got repeated warnings that this very thing was happening and ignored them willfully, then yes. In the end he has nobody to blame but himself. It’s no different from hosting a file sharing platform without ever vetting the content and wondering why the cops show up one day. The stupidity of going to France knowing that you’re a wanted man in a number of countries is just the cherry on top.
- Comment on Founder and CEO of Telegram messaging service arrested in France 2 months ago:
This is more like arresting the getaway driver, not the car manufacturer.
- Comment on Founder and CEO of Telegram messaging service arrested in France 2 months ago:
Exactly. Telegram has a ton of public channels full of content that is illegal in most EU countries and refuses to comply with any local laws on hate speech. They know perfectly well what their platform is used for, they just don’t care. It would be a wildly different case if everything were E2E encrypted by default.
- Comment on Founder and CEO of Telegram messaging service arrested in France 2 months ago:
Not really comparable because the illegal content is hosted and distributed through his servers. Which is why most sites are moderated to a degree. This dude basically said “fuck off” whenever takedowns were issued. It’s hardly a surprise that he’s been arrested.
- Comment on Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 has been delayed again, this time until the first half of 2025 2 months ago:
It’s pretty close to a Duke Nukem Forever situation at this point.
- Comment on Mafia: The Old Country - Official Teaser Trailer 2 months ago:
I was just wondering if we’re gonna get any news of the prequel during Gamescom. So glad to hear that it was not among the games 2K cancelled earlier this year. Hangar13 did great with the Mafia Remake so I am extremely hyped for this.

Not much as the sites talk to eachother. In this case .world is just where your account is located and where you sign in. You can use it to post to communities from other sites as well.

That and the fact that the whole studio packed up and moved to the Czech Republic in the middle of development. It’s been pretty rough but I’m positive that the game will turn out fine.

I cannot overstate how good it feels to have the person who I always thought was a major asshole turn out to be an even bigger asshole.
- Comment on What’s Your Oldest System? 4 months ago:
My Commodore 64. I have a ton of cassettes and floppies with games. Some even with intros from scene release groups, which are pretty fun. I should probably digitize them at some point to preserve them. I don’t use it much though due to the risk of the original power supply frying the computer. I’ll have to buy a modern replacement at some point.
