yes, it seems to be absolving the isekai genre, although currently there’s still a lot of overlap
- Comment on The Magic Keyboard and Mouse now use USB-C! 2 weeks ago:
the problem is less how often I have to charge my mouse and rather that I’m almost always using it and on top forgetting to charge overnight so there is no “convenient” time to charge it during the day where I’d not use it
- Comment on The Magic Keyboard and Mouse now use USB-C! 2 weeks ago:
given how often my mouse has to charge while I’m using it I’d have a major issue with it

- Comment on Useful apps to self-host 10 months ago:
Gitea is managed by a for profit which is now offering a hosting service. That alone is already a conflict of interest because one of Giteas core features is the easy self hosting.
Then the contribution guidelines have been made stricter, anyone contributing now has to give up their copyright to the gitea management, meaning they could change the opensource license to a stricter one down the line without requiring community consent.
The concern is that as time passes features will be locked behind a premium tier for self-hosters or the self-hosting itself will be made more difficult in an effort to push their cloud service.
- Comment on Threads is making moves for Mastodon integration 11 months ago:
> make a new messenger using a niche protocol > new users choose your messenger because it is objectively the best after you dumped unreasonable amounts of cash into it > userbase grows, in large parts because the small messenger is interoperable so you can say “hey, if other company wanted to they could just implement [protocol] for you, we are already doing that” > once userbase reaches critical mass, pull the plug on the protocol > users with long chat histories and contact books are now more or less stuck on your platform whether they like it or not because getting people to switch suddenly means two messengers instead of one for them, not a good proposition to make.
XMPP did take off while it was in Messenger, Facebook decided to kill it with its superior reach because it was a step-ladder rather than something actually useful to them. Facebook will absolutely use the Mastodon interoperability as a marketing trick “Hey guys, if you have friends that don’t like threads they can use another platform and still talk with you”. They’ll use it to distinguish threads from twitter until they feel like they don’t need it anymore. Then they’ll find some sort of technical excuse and pull the plug on ActivityPub support.

Can confirm, my mail server does just about everything I found it needs to do to not get flagged spam. And it doesn’t except for Gmail. Not even Microsoft has “Spam” filters that strict beyond checking the basic records.
On the browsers, I think in large parts Google should have never been allowed to push for their own Browser in their own products simply because the have monopolies in so many of them. Free market this and that, IRL it doesn’t work without some regulations and imo (American) Tech companies have been allowed too much freedom to abuse the market whichever way they like.
- Comment on Threads is making moves for Mastodon integration 11 months ago:
If they are having instance owners sign NDA’s they must have pre-selected who to talk to or only target Mastodon because feddit.de just pre-emptively defederated threads.net after users made the owner aware of the news and it’s one of the largest instances (even more so if you go by MAU which is arguably what Meta would be intersted in).
- Comment on Threads is making moves for Mastodon integration 11 months ago:
The way I see it have them show through actions that they won’t EEE for a good few years with whoever is willing to risk it. If they don’t show any signs of EEE then, I might reconsider my stance on federation with them. Until then I’ll keep threads.net on the blocked list of my instance.

Due to some concerns about Gitea’s future I would recommend Forgejo instead. It’s a drop-in replacement with less concerning contribution policies and management structure.
- Comment on Goblin Slayer Season 2 - Episode 10 discussion 11 months ago:
Goblin Slayer’s one dimensional thought process when it comes to Goblin slaying quests will never get old.
I am still surprised all of these idiots take Goblins so lightly, it seems very few people have the hands-on experience needed to see them for the menace they actually are. And now as a result of this the princess of the kingdom has been taken captive by them, all in a time frame that pretty much ensures she has already been made to suffer at their hands. I can absolutely understand the Archbishop’s concern when it comes to Goblins.
Also what kind of Princess goes around stealing stuff, never mind from a Priestess. That’s some real low-life behaviour and I hope she gets properly reprimanded for it once she’s saved from the Goblin’s torture.

Cid really is just the ultimate wrench. Accidentally steals the McGuffin from Perv Asshat without the idiot noticing lol.

- Comment on Setup a DNS server on a dynamic public ip 11 months ago:
yes but most isp’s (at least where I live) change the IP in the middle of nobody-should-be-awake-anyway o’clock
Plus the connection drops only for a minute or two at most unless ypu set a really high ttl on the domain dns record

Honestly it’s a blessing, hardcoded stuff can be easily circumvented by turning to 1337-speech or inserting whitespace. An AI scanning stuff would not only produce random false positives but also make the censorship actually work
- Comment on Forgejo v1.21 is available 11 months ago:
wait Jira is a Java website?
That explains so much…
On that note: Why is it every single time a piece of Software I find runs or feels like absolute Garbage it turns out it was written in Java? (Ok all things being fair occasionally the ancient PHP App is in the mix as well but it’s 95% Java Apps being shit)

If only Shadow knew how many women he’s already picked up just by bsing his way through life…
Love the small callbacks here and there to past story beats like here with Mary.
I am so tempted to just go an pick up the LN right now

Priestess purifying Goblin blood is understandably a big shock to her, still I like to see this darker side of the universe.

I just think it’d be a good idea for a closing arc, opens up more options for the final chapters

Love everyone else just making up bullshit (just like their mentor lol) to get to the hot springs with Shadow meanwhile Delta just says what everyone else been thinking.
I still love the girls also never even considering that Shadow is just bullshitting everything, however I don’t want to to go on forever. I think the Story could get some serious value out of untangling the entire farce at the end. Making either Shadow/Cid realize he wasn’t just acting and this shit was serious and/or the girls realize that he did the entire thing by the seat of his pants.

Sounds easy enough to implement tbh, will maybe take a look later how much work that’d be because it’s a must have for me as well

A lot of smaller things, at least for me. The biggest grievance I have with it is the garbage tier UX between hitting “Deploy” on a stack and getting ito to do so. Error messages in the notification bubble get cut off, are unhelpful amd/or disappear too fast. That and the L9g Voewer sucking ass are my main probpems with it and why I’ll definitely check this out.

- Comment on Goblin Slayer Season 2 - Episode 7 discussion 11 months ago:
Very dark Episode again, I like it but it makes the OP ring true even more.
I already speculated as much but the “world” is really cramming in Goblins everywhere to make Goblin Slayer stick to the Main Story. I appreciate the Story getting a bit more grim again, especially with the mental impact these monsters have on people.
