Definitely a cool feature but I’m happy that my threat model doesn’t require having an answer to someone beating the shit out of me if I don’t give them a pin 😅.

Most CGDCTs with strong iyashikei elements, but specifically ARIA 🥰

Very cute episode, one of the earliest parts where I really feel that sister bond between Chino and Cocoa.

Recently I randomly rewatched the first few episodes of Gochiusa season one. I forgot how much fan service there was when they introduce Rize in episode one. After that it trails off again. It seems kinda common to put the fan service in the first episode. Kinda bold how they put Sharo’s age next to the fan service 😅. Honestly I thought she was 16 since she is in high school. Also I have seen the spelling “Syaro” before, it’s kinda funky and non standard. I should also read in Japanese but I never get to it.

May he rest in peace. It seems he also worked on Gakuen Utopia Manabi Straight!, which I really enjoyed.

yay

When I hear his voice, all I hear is Madao!

are seen as a nuisance, annoying, and obnoxious

Maybe that is the important part and the particular drug used is not that relevant. If so, the characters wouldn’t really change that much? In the west in decades time, when young people assume the position in society that boomers have right now, we might actually see stoner characters and vaping characters become somewhat normal like drunk characters.

I don’t see weed as taboo, maybe it’s different where you are from. It seems way more popular than tobacco these days. Of course alcohol is still the most accepted drug around.

This is such a gaijin question to ask 😅.

Actual marijuana usage in Japan is low with only about 1.8% of Japan’s population ever trying cannabis, compared to 44.2% in the United States.

I can’t say I miss the representation of it. I can’t imagine my favorite characters stoned of their ass 😭. Fun article to bring up the topic and think about it though.

I hope they don’t try to appeal to the west too much and lose that thing that makes it special. Before the 2010’s the west seemed to hate moe a lot. Imagine if they hadn’t made Lucky Star and K-ON! for that reason… Lately I learned that Gochiusa doesn’t even have a western dub. So if they start caring too much about what the west likes good things like those types of anime will become less frequent.

Abababababa

Aaah the Haruhi background fits well

Well, I don’t want to shit on what people like, but there is one thing that annoys me a bit with things such as this art. It is that the figure of the character is changed so much. If one likes such a figure surely there are characters that already have that? Not in this case, but especially when flat characters are turned into curvy ones but almost never the other way around.

Thanks! 99k yen is more than 500 euros, and yea, I’m no position to cough that up unfortunately 😭

Wow! Love the hand made aspect of it. I can’t really spot the price by looking over it, and it’s going to be at least twice as expensive to get it outside Japan…

Pretty 🥰

The rational is systemd has a huge amount of features that normal desktop users will never need. If you use something like OpenRC or Runit the experience is not much (or any) different. All those features will introduce complexity and potential bugs and vulnerabilities.

Unless you use xdg-desktop-portal, the field that systemd added does absolutely nothing.

Sure it doesn’t add much, but many of the systemd things are ‘not much’. But together it is a lot.

I don’t see the vulnerability, especially considering that you’re comparing it to an SSH vulnerability (which, it should be noted, was caught in testing and never released).

Luckily it was the case, but it was way too close for comfort. It doesn’t change the fact that bloated systems like systemd are what enable these types of attacks. If you use many of its features I’m sure its great, all software has bugs and holes in it. But the point is that if you don’t need the features you don’t need to expose yourself to the extra bulk and risks. Same for things like sudo vs doas. Almost everyone uses sudo but 99.9%+ doesn’t use any features that doas doesn’t have. And then of course systemd invents its own alternative 😅.

And then there is the Unix philosophy. If we need age verification, why does it need to be in the init system? Why not a separate package that can be installed along side any init system / kernel / desktop environment / etc? If it lives in the init system, every init system needs to implement their own version of it.

I doesn’t but the exploit required it.

First Artix made me not vulnerable to the XZ backdoor (requires systemd). Now it saves me from age verification nonsense. Even on Lemmy sentiment seems people who avoid systemd are just cranks. But every time we are right.
