I think it’s fundamentally not what the show is about and not every show has to tackle every moral problem. Sometimes you just need interesting antagonists in a story and it would be boring of they were just drones.
Don’t overthink it.

This is a nice contrast to Frieren where demons don’t have souls

Do they not? Aura’s scales of obedience are said to work by “placing her own and the target’s soul onto the scales to weigh their mana”.

Finally someone brings the proper vibes to this coversation. I recently learned there is even a term for this kind of show. “Iyashikei”.

The demons came to a town disgused a peace envoy, a pretend diplomatic mission to disable a magic barrier. This absolutly goes beyond just immitating speech.
- Comment on Anime with alternate orders 4 days ago:
I’m interested in forgetting about it, this is close to triggering. I spent way to much time on TVDB/TMDB trying to match obsure anime downloads with some reasonable airing order. And the specials … oh god deliver me from specials and OVAs.
And yes, as already mentioned “Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya” gave a big headache … I probably spend around 2 hours trying to figure out which episide is which and putting them on one of the officals orders.

I haven’t read the Frieren manga, but the show referred to its world’s demons as not actually speaking, but having learned to make human-like noises to elicit desired responses.
I have read ahead quite a bit, but it’s actually not relevant, because the show itself (which is pretty much identical to the manga) already debunks that.
Aura and her executioners are clearly very intellegent and even have an inner monologue. (One of the lines I actually dislike is when one demon asks the other “what is a mother?” And he just replies with “who knows?”. From what we’ve seen from the demons so far, they should totally be capable of having figured out human reproduction.)

- Comment on If Europe and the rest of the worlds response it to make weapons of war, someone will eventually insure they are all used. 6 days ago:
Sure. But the war wasn’t caused by the weapons existing.

Would Russia been as aggressive if Ukraine still had it’s?
The war is directly linked to the cold war, so it’s pointless to talk what would have happend if the cold war would have ended differently.
But let’s assume the political situation would have been the same and just the stockpile of old sovjet weapons was gone: I’d say yes, they would have been just as aggressive in the beginning. After all the didn’t really intended to be relying on their old stockpile at the start.
- Comment on If Europe and the rest of the worlds response it to make weapons of war, someone will eventually insure they are all used. 6 days ago:
They are made to last for quite a while. Look at Russia, they are still going through equipment and ammunitions made for the cold war. So yeah, as long wars keep happening, there is a good chance weapons will eventually get used. And it doesn’t look like wars are going to stop happening anytime soon.
Also weapons being decomissioned (destroyed without being used) or ageing equipment being converted for training/practice is also quite common. So no, not all weapons will eventually get used in war.
- Comment on If Europe and the rest of the worlds response it to make weapons of war, someone will eventually insure they are all used. 6 days ago:
Yes, I know it’s different that’s what I specified non-perishable. Milk is perishable.
You make weapons of war with the intent of them being used for war.
All tools are made with the intent for being used for their intended purpose …

That’s kind of true for all non-perishable goods. So what’s your point?

I thought the last episode was really good, so I’m itching to watch if the upwards trend continues. But I usually like to bunch up mutli-parters and watch them in one go … mh.
- Comment on Jellyfin is not just good... but *better* than Plex now?! 1 week ago:
Yeah, I have 31 remote users (though less then 10 are actually active). If you’re running to the point of supporting that, the plex lifetime pass is just a piss in the wind.
But the lemmy FOSS crowd is strong, we’re severely outnumbered here :D

Hemorrhoid are like super common, like 50% of people will get them eventually. It’s nothing to be embarrassed about.
I guess you can continue waiting, but I bet eventually the pain will beat out the embarrassment. Just tell them and get help.

My phone is basically a mp3 player that is used for 2FA. And of course for in case you need to communicate when traveling.
But other than that, I’ll use the laptop whenever possible.

- Comment on YSK that scientifically and zoologically, there's no such thing as alpha males, and a human "alpha male" personality is a transgender identity/gender performance 3 weeks ago:
“alpha males” are transgender.
According to you he is transgender and he’s very obviously an activist for that kind of identity. So that’s very much a logicial association (based on your horseshit premise).

So according to your logic Andrew Tate is a transright activists?

Anthropomorphism is the attribution of human traits onto non-human entities. So in this context, we’re just talking about non-human animals.

Well, I strongly disagree right back.
Especially smaller instances regularly have reliability or federation issues, so it’s vital for me to be able to hop to an alt account and still the same all feed.
