Author didn't want to commit to the cat ears. I don't think they're permanently stuck to her head, but she does wear them in combination with a lot of different outfits. (Tried to find an example without the antennas, but couldn't find a conclusive example.)

Anya in yukata, no antenna?

Agreed, not just because someone is being an asshole. Everyone should feel the need to protect their personal information, because the world is full of assholes of different levels and your personal information being publicly available can only cause harm to you. It really is as simple as setting your profile to "friends only" to counter the lowest level of assholes.

The distinction there is that they detect the activation command client-side and start sending to server after that. Chat control could technically be implemented in a similar way, where the client decides when and what to send to central processing. Only problem is... do we do all detection client-side then? Or do we let the user activate the detection by saying "Hey Interpol"?

Everyone regardless of victim status should use the tools available to protect their personal information online.

If someone is publishing your personal information without your consent, local laws and regulations may apply. You kinda have to be lucky with police and the legal system to take you seriously though.

See? Trying to solve homelessness and other societal problems is immoral, demonic even! Because every solution I can think of is mass murder, so I just know that's what the left is secretly planning!

Can you get ammo laser engraved with anything you want? That seems like a lot of text for one bullet either way, but I don't know how big these bullets are or how precise the engraving can be.

How important is it to your theory that "hour" is related to "house" in... ancient Assyrian language? Because they're completely unrelated in English, "house" coming from Germanic hus and "hour" coming from French ore. If we look at ancient Greek, the two are hoora for "hour" and oikos for "house". I think English post-vowel shift has to be the first language where those two even sound similar.

They already made an editor's note, but in case they decide to take it down after all: https://archive.is/Kb78K

I think Leah did alright with her torture round, but I don't know why they crippled Brennan to the point he couldn't even say "strange". I initially thought it was going to be a heckling round, which could be really funny after they got to know the audience's weak points.

Bob was killing it for the entire show, really knew when to dig deeper and when to veer off into an anecdote. Well-deserved win to be sure.

Brennan was honestly out of his element here. I love to see him, he has a great stage presence, but his strength is in improv theatre.

Who is anon quoting here? Because his text is green, but he's clearly not greentexting.

The million-milliard system means a billion has double the zeroes compared to million, trillion has triple the zeroes, etc. In the English system, a quadrillion has 15 zeroes, so 4 times 3 plus 3? A quadrillion should have 4*6=24 zeroes.

King Cobra + Four Loko is the one I know, it's called a Hyper Viper. I've tried other combinations and they all taste the same, so I'd just go for thematic or pun-based combos.

 

This fat bastard is haunting my dreams and the witch in the woods told me the only way to ever sleep soundly again is by taking her out of my dreams and into my arms. Where do I find this little shit? Any legit sites selling cute (knock-off) baguette-eating demons?

Lemmy.zip is down and probably took DailyGameBot down with it, so here is a fleshy human doing a machine's work.

Edit: Argh, this community is on lemmy.zip, so you'll probably only see this when the bot is back up (^_^')

 

I'm interested to hear about anime that give a different experience when putting the episodes in a different order. They can be official orders (broadcast vs dvd) or fan orders (moving arcs around, putting seasons in chronological vs release order). Maybe you can even think of examples where a companion movie is inserted in the middle of a season? Two separate projects by the same author or studio that can be weaved together to form a consistent whole?

Have to add that we work exclusively in strongly-typed languages. Kinda want to see how it plays out, but I can't help but argue with him, so I think I'll just go.

 

Getting +18 mult from Ride the Bus, +24 mult from Blueprint (looking at Erosion), +24 mult from Erosion, x1.5 mult from holographic Scholar and another x1.5 mult from a copied holographic Scholar for a total of nearly 19000 points. If I play an ace, it's not even that much more, only 8 mult from the Scholars? Trying to whittle my deck down to only aces so I can play four of a kind, but even then most of the mult will be Erosion.
