Oh yeah, kind of like how fans re-edited One Piece to remove filler and improve the pacing. I wonder if something similar could be done to merge the two FMAs? Unfortunately I think most of the fanbase just thinks Brotherhood is it, and the original doesn’t matter, so I don’t know think there’s much demand for this.

This is what I did, would also recommend. I don’t even think Brotherhood is better, the original has some really strong points.

Oooh I’ve been eagerly awaiting season 2 of Arcane. Hadn’t seen the release date yet. Excited now. 😸

I’ve been wanting to re-watch firefly lately. It’s short but there’s just so much in it. It’s one of two shows I’ve watched start-to-finish more than once.

And since we’re here for recommendations…the other show I’ve watched more than once is Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency. Based on a book by Douglas Adams (Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy) it’s charming and insane in ways you might expect if you’re familiar with Hitchhiker’s Guide but it’s absolutely not predictable either. So much fun. (Available on Netflix (in Canada…last I checked))

The working class I guess? Certainly no one with power.

I can’t trust a car no matter how Japanese it is, but… I watched a lil docuseries on dangerous roads, and it seemed like at least 80% of the vehicles (outside of heavy trucks) were Toyota. I dunno if it’s because they’re the most reliable, or because Toyota just has the market in many of these developing countries, but it was interesting.

Canada is killing it. We added Nunavut a while ago to make 13 provinces/territories and continue to have a Prime Minister.

I wish people didn’t have such a tendency to think of things as binary, when basically nothing is. It’s super unhelpful.

When I worked for a guy who kept chickens in the back yard, the eggs came out in every shade from dark brown to white, and some had freckles. I don’t know how they get them to be just two uniform colours (brown/white) in the grocery store, but I assume the white ones must be bleached. Some are naturally brown, others may be dyed.

But I agree that we should be suspicious whenever marketing is involved.

Problem solved 😁

One time they told me I had 3 days left to enjoy YouTube with my ad blocker, and then I would have to buy premium, or they would just lock me out of the site. I was like “welp, it had a good run, I guess that’s it for ol’ YouTube.”

But then the 3 days went buy and nothing ever came of it.

That tactic probably did get them some preemptive subscriptions though, unfortunately.

Yeh, if I ever see my TV’s OS I’m like “fuck off! HDMI4!”

I’m sure they’ll find something even more problematic to dump money into sooner or later.

Of course it’s not only ai, but the article’s subhead: “Statistics raise concerns that rise in demand for data processing driven by AI could derail climate targets”

Can we just cancel the whole “ai” thing? It was fun for a bit, now it’s just problems.

“any flavour you like, as long as it’s swamp water!”

Ah no worries, reading is hard sometimes :P

They all seem legit. I don’t have personal experience here, but I’ve seen many from the outside, and spoken with women whose experiences certainly don’t sound anything like “life on easy mode”.

And even those 3 advantages only apply to certain women. It’s so easy to generalize, but what if you’re fat, or gay, or something? What if you’re an asexual Muslim who loves opening doors? Poof. No advantages, only hard mode.

Tons of young male characters are voiced by women. I’m curious which anime you’re referring to though.
