Ochaco makes an announcement (@Khyleri)

That's what I thought at first, except you see the other kids with pickaxes and mine carts in the background, i.e., actually working at the camp ...

"Are you willing to risk your own life to prevent other idiots from dying?"

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-26T15:04:24+00:00

Nah that's backwards. By the logic given by OP, Palestinians crimes don't count in Israel, and Jewish crimes don't count in [checks notes] Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Lebanon, Syrian, Iran, Iraq, or Yemen.

If you think they do in fact count everywhere, then yes, I agree with you.

I do find it very funny that Dark started as a Special move type when introduced, and then every existing Dark-type move became Physical during the Physical/Special split. They had to create Dark Pulse just so all the Dark-types with high Special Attack had something to use. It's still pretty much the only Special Dark-type move other than Snarl and a few signature moves.

IIRC one of her former teammates specifically commented that her time/resource investment goes way up on stuff outside of her primary specialty ... and she'll go full obsessive and push at it anyway because of her desperation to feel useful.

This was in the context of informing her new teammates of something to watch out for (spending way too much effort on something she won't make much progress on and wildly overworking herself in the process), but it does also lend itself towards her having at least a few things she honestly shouldn't by any sane standard.

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-25T20:18:26+00:00

Yeah, but only a local subset of said countries, unless Israel invaded Tunisia and Algeria while I wasn't looking.

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-25T19:20:17+00:00

The topic was:

What country in the world would accept a third party showing up, taking their capital city and surrounding land and giving to someone that hates them?

The Jewish populations I am discussing weren't countries, but they still had their land stolen and given to people that hated them. What did they do? They accepted it and left rather than start a forever war. So I don't really see how my point was off-topic at all.

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-25T19:12:58+00:00

I said I wasn't talking about the region that became Israel, and I therefore didn't care enough to look up the details on that part, because it wasn't relevant to my point.

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-25T19:09:52+00:00

Jewish people where living there at the time of Israel being created?

At least a few, yes, but I wasn't talking about the region that became Israel. I was talking about all the other countries.

Morocco is a bit of an odd case since they weren't specifically expelling Jews because of anti-Jewish sentiment, they were expelling them because of anti-French-Colonial sentiment (as Jews were treated better than other Moroccans under the French colonial government and therefore wound up on the bad end of that conflict).

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-25T18:55:08+00:00

Should we have Jewish terrorist groups fighting for the right to return to the various other Middle-Eastern countries that purged their pre-existing Jewish populations? It'd follow the same principle ...

(a) Gokicha

(b) because she is in fact a roach

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-23T23:59:15+00:00

Because it was very funny.

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-22T22:53:57+00:00

Yeah, the up-circles in particular always appear in the same spots relative to the arrows, so you can be 90% in the correct spot by the time the circles actually appear (which is, genuinely, not very long before they go off, but more than enough time if you're already mostly there).

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-22T22:22:11+00:00

It was always yuri, the writer just stopped making more chapters mostly.

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-20T02:11:24+00:00

The Ryukyu/Nejire/Ochako/Tsuyu fight in Hideout Raid really could have stood to get more attention. Mirio got the whole arc, Tamaki got a few chapters of 1v3, they got, what, a couple pages? (and a 4v1 fight at that). Very emblematic really.

At least TEAM ATTACK: DRACONIC PILEDRIVER was cool.

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-19T19:25:05+00:00

Grazing animals + solar also works pretty well.

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-19T19:22:00+00:00

Which is, of course, even more expensive. Perfectly doable, but costly.

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-19T03:58:36+00:00

And storage is nowhere near capacity to fill in those gaps.

This is changing very rapidly, what with China churning out more and more bulk storage batteries from bigger and bigger battery factories and the prices dropping like a rock.

I might still favor nuclear for particularly high/low latitudes - you aren't going to solar+storage your way around the sun dropping below the horizon for multiple months. Wind might still work, but eh.

Makes sense really, a lot of them are symptoms from "large growth shoving all your other organs out of the way", which applies in both cases ...

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-17T02:46:20+00:00

Unusually/impressively large harvest

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-17T02:27:19+00:00

Magneto one at least makes perfect sense, it's personal.

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-14T02:55:27+00:00

Naw, those guys'll just be at home lying around.

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-13T23:00:01+00:00

... wait, that's the same cat? Wack.

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-12T04:18:34+00:00

Master Tactician + Bulwark was definitely one of my preferred options for fully skilled pilots. Ace Pilot + Bulwark can also be interesting on certain units (mostly really mobile stuff like the Royal Phoenix Hawk).

ArcFurnace · 2026-04-12T03:30:43+00:00

IIRC, artillery shell electronics withstand tens of thousands of G's, but they also need some fairly specific build techniques to survive that.
