THANK YOU MAKISE KURISU 🗣️🗣️🗣️

@turtlekiosk Would make for a good catch response when your external API requests fail

when you watch a movie and some catastrophic failure happens in some system and the computer says like "containment breached" and you're like well how bad could it be if the UX has a specific error state for that flow

@roaringtide5 Definitely up there

Is this the greatest manga of all time??

@TypeMayyy The whole world they show being so genuinely strange but naturally fitting elevates it to a whole other level of excellent storytelling.

There really isn't any proper way for me to describe this film other than an artistic masterpiece

@BrodieOnLinux Get them second-hand from someone clueless on Facebook Marketplace

Office chair reviews are a fascinating part of Youtube, basically the conclusion everyone comes to is if you're not spending $2,000 on a chair you're wasting your money.

@coyote_knight @AyakaMods Yup!

@AyakaMods Was crunchyroll the company that had leadership steal fan mail meant for VAs?

- Crunchyroll launched in 2006 as a pirate anime streaming site - After a $4M investment in 2009, they went legal and abandoned the fansubbers who built them, no credit, no compensation - Crunchyroll betrayed fansubbed - Fansubs gave you karaoke OP/ED lyrics, translator notes, colored dialogue per character, and honorifics, none of which Crunchyroll has ever consistently offered - Crunchyroll shut down its Games division in 2024, quietly killing it with little notice to users who had invested time in it - Crunchyroll manga service was shut down in 2016, then relaunched recently, but folded into the subscription fee with a limited catalog - Sony bought Crunchyroll for $1.175 billion in 2021 - Crunchyroll has raised subscription prices multiple times since the Sony acquisition, while delivering less - Crunchyroll acquired Funimation in 2022 and shut it down in April 2024, eliminating the last major competitor - Crunchyroll actively fights anime piracy - Disabled comments section on all anime under episodes and news posts in July 2024 - Crunchyroll streams censored TV broadcast versions of anime, but piracy is an uncensored anime scene - Crunchyroll denied switching to OOONA when asked by Anime News Network, refusing to confirm whether they'd used Aegisub, despite multiple staff leaks confirming the change - Crunchyroll subtitles typesetting was gutted/downgraded - Crunchyroll used AI translation a German subtitle (ChatGPT said: Wenn ich die Welt von hier an weiter genießen kann) - Crunchyroll raised subscription tiers again by $2 in February 2026 - Crunchyroll stayed silent, made no public disclosure, as data was breached on March 12, 2026

@DistantValhalla Always felt bad for the staff running at ATLUS booths when Persona 5 was at its peak, the line length got real bad

Working with idols irreversibly alters your brain chemistry because now every time I walk through a convention exhibit hall my #1 thought is "line management really needs work here"

@utdbrxy There's something about having a scheduled, curated run of programs rather than whatever an algorithm or content creator throws at you that feels much more important and necessary.

there was just something about watching TV before and after school. kids today only watch tiktok and yt slop

@makoyakii Large population base and much cheaper flights between California <> Japan than the rest of the country

Not to be a hater, but why is it always LA 😭🙏

@woxxy I wonder how they'd feel once learning it's a song about drugs lmao

So interesting to see "Why's this dealer" bouncing yaris meme is in Japan

@Aiyelers the vast majority have never had to fight for their lives changing Windows locale settings and it shows

If you speak to otaku in real life you immediately realize just how niche vns still are

@ahsokaskyber Really wish we got to see that or at least some public reaction to "we can fix the sun! also we made first contact". Does the book cover that better?

the concept of stratt watching all these logs of grace ranting to the camera

@blossombark12 needs some peri salt on there

what do u guys know about this london delicasy

@satin_polar @Dauragon GACHAMAN CROWDS MENTIONED

@Dauragon That's the way I found Gatchaman Crowds, and Nobunagun. Pretty Cool 🤙 Oh and there was No Guns Life, also

Also, crucially, before you even get to part where you are digging: you need to be able to just check stuff out generally. People used to act like I had some mystical weird anime detection power when the truth was I would just sit down and hit play on random stuff every season

Anime boston is so great, all ive done is buy porn

@luusssso @NASA UK's goes hard too but you'd never see it

We don’t talk enough about NASA having the hardest logos of all time

@SukunaBikona7 They traditionally dip it in gravy as well. The bread gets soggy, but it's very tasty!

ほぼ牛肉+炭水化物で、「もっと汁を浸せ」的なアメリカ人のリプが付いているのを見ると、実質的に牛丼なのでは

I'm going through a big Wipeout/The Designers Republic phase (again). This stuff still looks like something from the future to me.

@HailMaryLogs Aight, time to print a life-sized one...

This new Rocky 3D model is incredibly detailed. Every crack and engraving is there. There’s a chance it’s based on a 3D scan of the actual on-set puppet, which would explain the level of accuracy. That makes it useful not just for printing, but for other fan-made content too.

@ngriffin_uk @CrimeLdn They have GAME stores inside them now

@CrimeLdn sports direct has pokemon cards?

People rushing to get Pokémon cards in Oxford Street this morning..

@pinkorsomething Obama cookie

genuinelt what possible foods could H even have
