Isn’t that more of a gagging?

Patlabor movies 1&2: extremely realistic mecha and pretty deep story, though they are really slow and don’t have the explosive pace most action animes bring. I love them still. There’s also a very good abridged version of Patlabor 1 on YouTube, it’s hard to remember the actual movie after watching it.

Ghost in the Shell movie, GITS Stand Alone Complex and Second Gig are also extremely good. In a way they are one of the definite sources of modern cyberpunk - though hardly the first, the inspiration they brought can be only compared to Star Trek imo. There have been GitS stuff since, but they never managed to recapture the same heights.

And if you like more modern stuff, 86 is one of my favorite shows of late. The base story isn’t bad - it clearly has a lot of thought put into it, but it feels somewhat bland in parts - but the way they brought it to anime was just sheff’s kiss. It’s ridiculously well directed. That said, you need to have a certain appreciation to bleaknees and some (melo)drama to really enjoy it.

There’s some ageless classics. HoMM3 came out 25 years ago and is still pretty much the top of its genre. Freespace2 more or less shut down the spacesim genre 25 years ago, as well…

Yeah, should’ve put them in the pipes like modern people do.

Reminder that even earth strongest fighter (that being Krillin) is mostly a joke since forever. And for most of us, even fucking Yamcha would kick our asses.

Sure, PFAS were also considered a nonsignificant issue until they weren’t, only it’s too late to unfuck it now. Well, no harm in generating more potential ticking time bombs I guess.

Ah yes, the usual method of waiting until the issue becomes confirmed and also way too severe to fix instead of acting on precaution and harming profits of private companies. What could go wrong?

Heat waves and stupid tourists do not mix well, apparently.

Computers do what people tell them to do, not what people want.

Going publicly traded fucks every company up with nextquarter-itis.

Unless Trump is elected, then they have a realistic shot to keep thier gains.

The experience, perhaps.

My country has become a practical dictatorship, and I’ve realised that people living here are not only ok with that but are happy that decisions are made for them. I miss the days I believed in people.

Try using a custom ROM on Android and you’ll quickly see.

Let’s use a protocol that shadily blocks everything google doesn’t like. Yeah, fuck that.

Windows malware: excited noises

And if Ukraine is not getting enough aid soon, all those dead will be worth it for russians as they annex (a good portion of) Ukraine.

One hand, jesus christ that is all kinds of fucked up. On the other, if the alternatives are starving to death or the mob beating your teeth out (we don’t know what forces these people into their position), anyone would he willing to do a lot of things they wouldn’t normally.

This world’s pretty fucked up. I remember being disillusioned of socialism back in the day (still am) but shit like this makes me wish there was some magical better system than our shitty capitalism.

If I know they are there then I either supervise visitors or trust them to not rummage/take my stuff. If that is your issue then keep your postit in a drawer; most people don’t keep their yubikeys in a securely bolted safe either.

If someone has access to your sticky note they’re already in your house, and that’s a bigger issue IMO… even from an itsec perspective, once the attacker has physical access to guarantee safety is difficult.

But seriously, there’s a guy in your house.
