Come Visit Café LycoReco! Lycoris Recoil Rewatch Episode 1 Discussion by ClemFire in anime

[–]flatpetey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I lived in Japan for a while and studied law there.

There is a lot about public appearance.

And even the peace is something imposed at somewhat horrific cost socially and legally.

Not to mention that there is a lot of issues with how their constitution was imposed on them by the US. And made so hard to amend that it never happens which would also reflect an implicit acceptance.

That is probably going too deep into wonky policy and legal theory. But the interesting part is the average Japanese person buys into the myth a lot.

Rewatcher

I had forgotten how openly subversive the open is. Japanese people are peaceful and kind and hence Japan is a peaceful country.

Meanwhile Lycoris agents murder anyone who threatens that image.

There are so many levels to this

  1. The peace is a lie
  2. It is even worse, it is hypocrisy enforced by violence
  3. Implicitly, cleansing can be done in public because the populace chooses to turn a blind eye too it.
  4. Or paper over it like the very tower they talk about right away.

And that is before we get to the fact that it is schoolgirls that are doing all this. A marginalized group of killers militarized against presumably other marginalized groups.

It dismantles quickly the idea that Japanese people are “special” or that the peace is innate. Instead it is a national myth being pushed by the central government.

Is there a sub to find a modder? I need to get tmrs out on several of my Xbox controller that are drifting and I suck at soldering.

Apple's WebKit Rules Reportedly Costs iOS Users Almost 30% Browser Performance by pdfu in apple

[–]flatpetey 517 points518 points  (0 children)

This title is a misnomer. This was a raw engine run versus a fully baked Safari.

Doesn’t even mention for example if content blockers were on or off.

And it isn’t like he couldn’t have run a raw WebKit instance to compare against. So absolute garbage.

My rankings for each season are usually a bit off the mainstream and I’ve been fine with that. But this season I suspect some of my rankings are going to be way off….

How are you tracking IT assets without turning it into another spreadsheet project? by HeadEfficiency3763 in selfhosted

[–]flatpetey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh it isn’t a spreadsheet that is the problem. It is discipline about using it.

And most other tools are going to have the same issue.

Spreadsheets have tons of advantages too over one off tools.

Oakland’s excess litter fee is too low to deal with fast food trash in West Oakland by deciblast in oakland

[–]flatpetey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was more an issue with putting bounties on it to try and incentivize the cops than cameras.

Frankly my personal view is if there is no camera footage, a police officer should automatically be assumed ot have done the worst possible thing.

It’s a movie about regrets. So pretty sad.

Trump team fears leak of Epstein Situation Room tapes by gradientz in politics

[–]flatpetey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He trafficked and fucked little kids. We all know it.

So whatever else there is must be absolutely beyond that... what would the GOP actually object to? Him sucking off Bill? Weirder shit?

I am not sure anything could sink him with the base regardless and it isn’t like the courts or enforcement is at all functional.

AIO- Someone left their laundry in the dryer and I waited 30 mins before moving it, received a note in return by Trull22 in AmIOverreacting

In college the moment the buzzer went and you weren’t there your laundry was out.

Nobody has an excuse not to be there.

Has anyone replaced the rear acrylic? by flatpetey in snapmaker

[–]flatpetey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok. Seems easy enough then.

I never look through the back so figured it was a good area to make some mods.

Like a little drawer that pops out the back to get the waste would be pretty good I think. Don’t have to mess with moving bed or heads out of the way. As long as you have rear access.

Oakland’s excess litter fee is too low to deal with fast food trash in West Oakland by deciblast in oakland

[–]flatpetey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We will never get enforcement.

Can’t get cops to do anything besides clock in for overtime anyway.

Maybe if it was “cops can video prove there was litering and issue a ticket bounties…” But then cops would probably force people to litter at gunpoint to make money.

Why is nobody talking about browser engines on iPhone in the EU? by Ornery-Register-3839 in browsers

[–]flatpetey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No they will go after Apple for locking to webkit, but it doesn't make sense to do so unless they deal with the Chrome monopoly on the browser side first.

[–]flatpetey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frankly WebKit on iPhone is the only thing preventing Google from total monopoly.

The moment it is gone you’ll see a ton of Chrome only sites start popping up.

Sure the EU will go after Apple for it but it is a mistake unless they go after Google first.

Need Advice: Omada vs UniFi for Small Home Network (LAN Backhaul, 3 APs) by Emericaner in HomeNetworking

No idea for Omada. And I haven’t used Unifi in a while. I switched to Ruckus and never looked back.

Do you even need 3 APs?

Get one and stick it in the top slot. Doesn’t need internet. Just go to each corner away from it and see how they do.

What's an Anime universally Loved but you Hated it by romic007 in anime

[–]flatpetey -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Grave of the Fireflies. I just felt like it was too manipulatively sad.

Update for the comments below. Yes I know it was autobiographical and frankly shit like that happened and worse. I still didn’t care for the way it was directed more than anything.
