which one is the best anime in your opinion?
  • Death Note was my first non-Toonami anime (dbz/voltron/etc). It's the only anime I could get my wife to check out. Truly awesome. I was 20 when I first watched it and thought Light was awesome. Watching it now 16 years later and man does it hit different. I now view Light as a complete psychopath and actively root against him. Love that my view of the characters is a complete 180 from my early years.

    Legend of Vox Machina is freaking incredible and is probably my most re-watched "anime".

  • We don't want any more visitors, well-wishers, or distant relations!
  • This makes me wonder... wtf was the balrog's day to day like all those years? Was he really just hibernating? I mean, the maiar get bored. I can't imagine being a shadow hellfire demon makes you suddenly never get bored.

  • ...
  • I spent nearly 6-7 years developing control systems applications in LabVIEW. While I loved working in LabVIEW, I don't wish LabVIEW was more popular, but I would love to see a graphical programming language take off. The dataflow paradigm is really interesting to work with.

  • What is a good keyboard for android?
  • I actually forked your code so I could customize the keyboard a little bit. I was impressed that I didn't have any problems building the thing right away. Doesn't always happen for me with open source projects.

    One thing that was driving me nuts was how sensitive the swipe gestures on the spacebar are. I guess my thumbs always do a slight swipe when I'm pressing space and it was moving the cursor position on me. I wiped out all of that code. If you're taking suggestions, a way to disable swipe gestures on the spacebar would be a cool add. I'll see if I can get together a PR for it as well and be a part of the solution.

  • The ADHD urge to lie about why you didn't do something because "my brain refused to start on it" doesn't make sense to a lot of neurotypicals.
  • You're welcome, but I'm no angel! His ADHD frustrates the absolute hell out of me. Trying to play with him results in a shift in activity every 5 minutes. It's painful when I get invested in drawing Godzilla pictures only to have to go play pretend Minecraft 5 minutes in.

    Reading these is a survival mechanism for me!

    On a side note: I've realized I share sooooooo many symptoms with him. Currently in progress getting tested for adult ADHD.

  • Which of your favorite creators content quality went downhill very quickly?
  • Did you ever happen to visit /r/samandtolki before it was banned? They really gave Boogie hell. They documented lie after lie from the dude. It's sad how much of a pathological liar Boogie is. The worst one I witnessed was him saying people were swating him. Mod of samandtolki did a FOIA request to Boogie's local police department and got camera footage from the officer that visited Boogie's home. Boogie was making a lot of suicide claims and a fan called a wellness check on him. One officer showed up and asked Boogie's roommate some questions. That was it.

  • What's a button you hate tapping or clicking accidentally?
  • When I got my mouse, it was so sensitive that I couldn't rest my pointer finger lest I accidentally click. Had to take the mouse apart and put some rubber pieces under it to reduce the sensitivity. Razer Deathadder V2. Works amazingly well after that mod.

    Also I use the MessagEase keyboard on my phone and I'm constantly hitting spacebar when I meant to hit 'E'.

  • xkcd : Earth Temperature Timeline
  • Yup, but if I'm talking to someone who doesn't believe in man-made climate change and I show them the xkcd and answer their obvious follow-up question about how we know past temperature, and they STILL don't want to listen to me... well then I know I can never talk to that person again. :)

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • Counter-point... sweat, manure, and baby spit don't mess with my allergies like perfumes do. Perfumes should be banned (and I also wouldn't cry if smokers smelling like smoke were banned too).

  • James Webb telescope makes 'JuMBO' discovery of planet-like objects in Orion
  • What's intriguing about the discovery is that these objects appear to be moving in pairs. Astronomers are currently struggling to explain them.

    I always hate when science reporting does this. Astronomers are not struggling to explain them, they just don't have enough data to take a hypothesis to a theorem!

    The article even tells us possible explanations:

    One possibility is that these objects grew out of regions in the nebula where the density of material was insufficient to make fully fledged stars.

    Another possibility is that they were made around stars and were then kicked out into interstellar space through various interactions.

    "The ejection hypothesis is the favoured one at the moment," said Prof Mark McCaughrean.

  • Surveys show that as many as 92% of Americans have cut back on spending due to rising prices. Record-low housing affordability is setting off a vicious cycle.
  • Is just building more houses enough? I live in a brand new house in a brand new neighborhood. I bought right before COVID and since then my house has gone up 60k in value. I'm watching the builder raise their prices for the same floor plan by 60k to match.

    I guess if you overbuild then maybe there's pressure for it to go down? But right now I'm seeing new build prices match inflation of the housing market even though building cost inflation aren't matching home valuation inflation.
