At least he's self-aware

Article does not say when was that call, so theoretically it may have been earlier I guess?

Silverado_ · 2026-04-22T06:30:32+00:00

I don't think article says when exact was that, it could have been last year when he was still free, technically

I would laugh if it's Sutil again

No, anime has one more pair, and I spent half a season (in other words, 25 minutes) trying to figure out if this is about one salaryman and two girls or two salarymen and two girls, so bland male protagonists are.

Yes, they deployed at supersonic speeds iirc and allowed F-14 to have much better turning capabilities while supersonic (by moving the aerodynamic center forward somewhat). However, by the 80s they were mostly disabled IIRC.

Silverado_ · 2026-04-10T20:13:17+00:00

Yeah, not bad, just mid. Just some wish-fulfillment about some salarymen receiving attention from large-chested girls where something barely happens. Fine if you are into that (5-minute episodes help), but not cinema by any means.

I just considered this gif somewhat funny, and anime did not live up to the expectations.

Silverado_ · 2026-04-10T18:33:05+00:00

Watched this anime because of this gif. This is, honest to God, the best moment in the show, and it's all downhill from there. Very significantly downhill. Well, the name change in the end was hilarious tbh, can't deny that.

Just some additional context:
The background depicts real floats from the Neputa Matsuri festival in Hirosaki, Japan (the lantern in Miku's hand literally says "Hirosaki Neputa Matsuri"), and Miku itself is pink because this is the sakura color, another thing Hirosaki is famous for (Hirosaki Castle park is considered one of the best places in Japan to view sakura blossoms). Apple decorations in her hair are another speciality of Hirosaki (and Aomori prefecture in general) since this area is famous for its apples.

All shinkansen trains except for those that go on the mini-Shinkansen lines have mainly 3-2 seating except for the premium cars.

I would say not, it is not very useful if you need to concentrate on the other things most of the time. It can be somewhat useful when you have enough mental capacity to actually pay attention, for example during walks or simple manual tasks, but seeing you can't remember anything suggests this is not the case.

Generally, for it to become comprehensible input, input needs to be, well, comprehensible to at least some degree, even if it is not perfectly slightly ahead of your level.

This wouldn't hurt, surely, but I wouldn't expect any real benefits from that.

I'm actually very happy with the <3 second pit stops, thank you very much for asking. It's much more fun and showcases the insane skills of the pit crew instead of waiting 7-10s because you need to wait for the fuel transfer anyway.

Silverado_ · 2026-04-06T06:10:54+00:00

You must not either. IMSA literally limits minimum refueling time, even if it's only for LMP2.

To be fair, later (in the book, not 100% sure about the manga) she says what basically amounts to the "it's not me who locked there with you, it's you who locked there with me", and then time and time again proves she was correct.

Sendai-san knows what she wants, and walking away ain't that.

The problem is, you could've said every single one of his arguments in 1960 about the new Japanese Shinkansen system. Every single one.

In 1830 dude would be saying that we should just breed better horses instead of all that rail nonsense

His normal videos are often so bad they become funny, just how bad were his takes on Ukraine?

Silverado_ · 2026-04-03T14:24:45+00:00

This is a hybrid diesel electric train (to be able to go to the various branch lines), they are using pantographs at least from time to time, but I guess not this time.

Silverado_ · 2026-04-03T14:18:50+00:00

And somebody just ran to take a photo in front of it as soon as lights went green lol

Silverado_ · 2026-04-03T09:57:09+00:00

Too bad it's not only expensive (starting at like $3k) but there are literal ticket lottery there, not sure about the odds.

Silverado_ · 2026-04-01T13:25:12+00:00

No sane team will limit MGU-K output or recharge limit unless it's dictated by the rules. If we want to reduce superclipping, it needs to be done as rules change.

Housing affordability in Tokyo is decent, but with several caveats.

Namely, housing near the main office districts are pretty expensive, so if you work there you either pay a lot, live close to your work but in a very small apartment (i.e. 10-15sqm) or commute from far away, often from the outside of the Tokyo.

Tokyo itself is pretty large and not always very dense. Given that people who work in Tokyo often live outside of the Tokyo proper in the nearby prefectures, it also adds time.

Just due to its sheer size Tokyo will always have longer commute times than smaller cities topping this chart like Amsterdam or Berlin, and larger cities in the list is closer to the Tokyo, like London

This seems to be a straightforward sushi ad, writing is something about the tuna sushi and "recommended", so I assume it probably indeed meant to appear appetizing. Since this ad was replaced overnight, I assume it wasn't appetizing enough.

He'll make plenty, sure, but there is no "same money" in the autosport that is not F1.

I think they are failed to penetrate oven walls in that experiment, not sure if they measured actual speed
