- Comment on The first folding e-reader is smaller than a paperback 6 days ago:
Adjacent to an e-reader, but Microsoft tried that. Typical Microsoft fashion, they fumbled it.
- Comment on Is there an easy way to create blocklist of post or comment for other people? 1 week ago:
When bluesky blew up last year almost instantly people made block lists, curated feeds list, etc of the sort. All built in. As much shit bluesky is getting for their wrongdoings, they did make very useful good things too.
- Comment on Anime Fans Score Big Win as Crunchyroll U-Turns on Massively Unpopular A.I. Plan 1 week ago:
They were better when they were a piracy site, price not withstanding
- Comment on Another Wikipedia Admin Caught Making PR Edits 1 week ago:
I’m surprised and not surprised I guess that there’s a business offering to write Wikipedia articles like this. I suppose it’s naivety to think that Wikipedia articles are written with good intentions.

Detroit Metal City
Spoiler
Devil May Cry
- Comment on In your opinion, which anime has the most badass villains? 2 weeks ago:
One comes to mind, but it doesn’t have an anime in a long time. Kind of. Desty Nova from GUNNM. To explain it would be spoilers, and I don’t really remember lol
Would need to reread Gunnm and Last Order again.
- Comment on Are Nintendo's $80 online game prices a result of tariffs or is Nintendo just using them as an excuse to price gouge as corporations do? 2 weeks ago:
After rereading your comment, I see it. My bad.
- Comment on What are some countries you’ve visited that shocked you with unexpected friendliness? 2 weeks ago:
Back when the world is simpler (because I was young and ignorant mostly) Moscow shocked me too. Had to study there for a few years and despite their gruff outward look they are some of the friendliest I’ve met at that time.
Only exception is riding the metro/tram during rush hour. Those babushkas aren’t playing around and will tackle you down
- Comment on Anthropic has developed an AI 'brain scanner' to understand how LLMs work and it turns out the reason why chatbots are terrible at simple math and hallucinate is weirder than you thought 2 weeks ago:
I think it’s odd in the sense that it’s supposed to be software so it should already know what 36 plus 59 is in a picosecond, instead of doing mental arithmetics like we do
At least that’s my takeaway
- Comment on Are Nintendo's $80 online game prices a result of tariffs or is Nintendo just using them as an excuse to price gouge as corporations do? 2 weeks ago:
I doubt this is because of the recent tariffs. Nintendo is a cold calculating bastard of an old corpo they must have planned this for years.
So my assumption this isn’t caused by that but just pure greed.
No doubt they’ll jack up the price more because of orange fuckhead pissing to the wind

I wish the steam deck is smaller NGL.
Or even offered officially to purchase in my country.

I got flack in a group chat for being highly cynical that the games industry, at least the “AAA” publishers, will adopt the new pricing standard.
Nintendo is doing it. They can use a flimsy excuse that they are using a stupid proprietary cart. Gamefreak was already doing it to save cost on higher storage carts. Even then they ship unoptimized shit and people lap it up like swines
GTA 6 will definitely be $100 and have no flimsy excuse
Ubitencent will get to it eventually I reckon after they finish fucking each other
- Comment on Are Nintendo's $80 online game prices a result of tariffs or is Nintendo just using them as an excuse to price gouge as corporations do? 2 weeks ago:
No, not all. It’s a an option. Basically yubikey DRM
Like even the game carts have a few choices for storage. For example, Pokemon pearl and diamond remake were notorious to go with the smaller storage carts where half the game is only downloadable
- Comment on Not just Switch 2: ESA warns Trump’s tariffs will hurt the entire game industry 2 weeks ago:
Looking forward to it
- Comment on Hmm. Yea.. Kill La Kill.. 3 weeks ago:
One of my 10/10 anime. No that’s not my first ecchi anime. Ikki tousen was. Maybe. At least one of the earlier firsts
- Comment on Media Do Distributor Sells MyAnimeList Site to Web3/AI Company Gaudiy 3 weeks ago:
Same. I have a soft spot for MAL just because it’s one of the first and they have pretty lively forum still.
And I like their rating system as well as tracking.
I can even, and did, myspace the heck out of my lists page. A quirky and welcome holdout from the semi old internet
- Comment on American and British English spelling and pronunciations 3 weeks ago:
Possible. It’s been years since I watched the show on YouTube.
- Comment on American and British English spelling and pronunciations 3 weeks ago:
_H_erbs, because there’s a frikking h in it.
Thanks Eddie Izzard for her skit, that still stuck with me.
- Comment on Online ‘Pedophile Hunters’ Are Growing More Violent — and Going Viral: With the rise of loosely moderated social media platforms, a fringe vigilante movement is experiencing a dangerous evolution. 3 weeks ago:
They can dispel doubt because they are hunting pedophiles.
“You wouldn’t defend a pedophile now, would you?” - clout chasing violence monger
- Comment on BuzzKill Vs FilterBox 3 weeks ago:
It would be nice to link it, for a start
I assume it’s this one?
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.catchin…
And if the filterbox dev would, you know, advertise their app like I remember Sam Ruston of buzzkill did on Reddit, maybe filter box would’ve been recommended more
- Comment on Other than a faulty charging port, is there any reason to use a wireless phone charger over wired? 3 weeks ago:
It is a hassle, even if very very slight. One you need to plug in something small. The other you just drop a big thing onto a slightly smaller big thing.
Arthritis, poor eyesight, poor lighting, temporary/permanent hand disability are some that I can think of that greatly benefits wireless charging and found plugging in a cable a hassle.
- Comment on Reddit’s 50% Plunge Fails to Entice Dip Buyers as Growth Slows. 3 weeks ago:
I didn’t want to put piefed yet since it’s still developing, but pretty fast and hard to give them credit. Is one I most looking forward to because of their topics and feeds. I thought I’d appreciate mbin having built in sorry for microblogs, but I didn’t even explore much of it
- Comment on Reddit’s 50% Plunge Fails to Entice Dip Buyers as Growth Slows. 3 weeks ago:
Feels that way to me. I wasn’t there like at the very beginning, but was able to be in a few small subreddits turn big. Lemmy/mbin a.k.a. threadiverse seems like it was before my time I started with reddit
- Comment on Why is Lemmy only popular in the western World? 3 weeks ago:
monyet.cc instance is made by Malaysians. Funnily enough it’s hosted in Singapore.
- Comment on Garmin adds AI and a subscription tier to its app 4 weeks ago:
Oh it’s Garmin. I misread the title and was wondering why Gemini is adding more AI, as if they don’t already have enough.
Par for the course, everything just have to have AI 🙄

Heck yeah, OnlyOffice gang
- Comment on What are your Top 10 anime? 4 weeks ago:
Quintessential CGDCT list if I ever saw one. Yes, including Gintama.
- Comment on What are your Top 10 anime? 4 weeks ago:
Considering all the other 9 anime you listed, Demon Slayer getting in your list as one of the more generic shounen anime plot wise is a miracle in my opinion.
- Comment on What are your Top 10 anime? 4 weeks ago:
Based on my MyAnimeList that I haven’t visited in a long while and evaluated how my scoring would have changed until now. Also I rarely watch anime as much as 15 years ago. Just based on those that I gave 8, 9 and 10/10 and reevaluated just now lol.
