So, calling someone a bast-ard, implies that their mother slept around on many beds that weren’t the marriage bed. Does that mean it all comes back to calling your mother a whore?
- Comment on Lemmings, please give us your info dump. 1 week ago:
Thanks for the long reply. I was using 20 for 5GHz for the range as on the other side of my home, the signal is quite weak. So I figure its more stable at 20 than using 40, even if 40 would be faster. Actually reading up on it more, the lower bands would be better in my case as they offer better wall penetration, which I think is my problem. I’m currently set to 161, let me try to swap to 36 and see if my signal improves. And I’ll test it out to 40MHz, might as well go for broke.

The general rule I’ve read for wifi is to use channels 1,6 and 11 for 2.4 GHz as those do not interfere with each other. So I use a wifi scanner on my phone at the furthest point in my home from the router and check which is the least busy from the surrounding neighbors. Do you think that’s a good technique to use?
For 5GHz, I try to pick between 36,48,149,161 and pick by the same rules as above. I also keep my channel size at 20Mhz for both.

Its free unlike Concord, so having a large number of launch players is not surprising. Keeping them is the real challenge.

I’m pretty sure Endless Eight was only one episode, but I did get a sense of deja vu from it.

5 split cours? does that mean we are getting 12 episodes on, 12 off for 2.5 years?

- Comment on Assassination Classroom The Movie: Our Time | Key Visual 2 months ago:
So its apparently just a collection of stories they had to cut from the anime. I dunno about turning that into a movie, seems like such a thing would normally be an OVA release.

The pacing dropping to 1ch = 1ep ruined it for me. And yeah, not a fan of the sfx use we keep seeing specially in Zoro fights.

in order left to right its
Tanya- Saga of Tanya the Evil
Rimuru - That Time I got reincarnated as a Slime
Tachibana - Life with an Ordinary Guy Who Reincarnated into a Total Fantasy Knockout (fun gag-comedy/romance, anime has one season, manga is still going strong)
Grace- From Bureaucrat to Villainess: Dad's Been Reincarnated! (anime was fun but was getting a little tired by the end due to complete lack of story progression)
??? no idea who this one is

- Comment on MultiVersus officially closes down and is delisted today 8 months ago:
This game could have easily been another Marvel Rivals. An absolute success using its strong IPs in a game type that is underrepresented. There's no other big name doing Smash Bros style combat, and definitely not outside of Nintendo's platform. The elements were all there to make this a successful game, but they completely blew the execution.
- Comment on Amazon Wishlist Alternative? 10 months ago:
I had the same question about a year ago and after trying out a few gift sites, settled on giftster.com.
It provides everything the amazon wishlist did, but allows you to add items from anywhere on the internet without a fuss. It works well enough that I was able to convince my entire family to move to it, which is a real victory. - Comment on Important information about compatibility of Nintendo Switch games with Nintendo Switch 2 11 months ago:
I didn't know the switch 2 was compatible with the switch 1 joycons, that fixes a lot of issues with the party games that specifically need the switch 1 joycon.
- Comment on What are your top three recommendations for someone new to anime? 11 months ago:
It really depends on what they are into.
Ideally it will be something short and self contained.
I'll start with the gold standard for recommendations: "Cowboy Bebop"If they want something light-hearted and comedic, "Spy X Family" is a good one
"Vinland Saga" for something heavier and more seriousFor fantasy fans there's "Frieren" and "Delicious in Dungeon", even if both are part 1 of a larger story
if they want fantasy aimed at someone younger, then "Little Witch Academia" is a good pickIf they want a combo of sports and romance, I thought "Yuri on Ice" was top tier.
With those out of the way, since you only said 3, I'll pick these 3 to give a wide variety of what anime has to offer:
Cowboy Bebop, Delicious in Dungeon, Spy X Family
