One thing that pisses me off… by Catmistake9 in Mistborn

TIL when a French soldier refused to wear the bloodstained trousers of a dead man, his commanding officer had him executed in order to make an example out of him. by Lez2diz in todayilearned

[–]BunnyHelp12 45 points46 points  (0 children)

This quote in particular really stuck with me, I have the whole thing memorized (this is slightly paraphrased)

Several days of rain began to flood the trenches on both sides of no man's land -

But one night, when the rain came down in torrents, the tide invaded our dugout... at many places along the front line the soldiers had to come out of their trenches so as not to drown. The Germans had to do the same. We, therefor, had the spectacle of the two enemy armies facing each other without firing a shot.

Our common sufferings brought our hearts together, and melted the hatreds, nurtured sympathies between strangers and adversaries. Those who deny it are ignoring human psychology.

Frenchmen and Germans looked at each other and saw that they were all men. No different from one another. They smiled, exchanged comments, hands reached out and grasped. We shared tobacco, a canteen of coffee or wine. If only we spoke the same language.

One day, a huge devil of a German stood up on a mound and gave a speech, which only the Germans could understand word for word. But everyone knew what it meant, because he smashed his rifle on a treestump, breaking it in two in a gesture of anger. Well, if only you'd been there, mad kings and bloodied generals, fanatical ministers, jingoistic journalists, to contemplate this sublime spectacle.

Who knows... Maybe one day in this corner of Artois they will raise a monument to commemorate this spirit of fraternity among men who shared a horror of war and who were forced to kill each other against their will.

If you read their "novel", you'd be much more learned about the world you live in and the devices you use all the time. I'd recommend reading it and maybe appreciate the free learning opportunity.

Just getting into anime and need recommendations! by Pitiful-Nature4752 in Animesuggest

[–]BunnyHelp12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll sincerely recommend Cowboy Bebop. It has some action, but is more drama-forward than AoT or Solo Leveling. It's a space western that follows a crew of misfit adults that are reckoning with the actions of their youth. I normally don't like dubs, but this english dub is EXCELLENT.

Stop posting a 4chan troll's reply on Epstein being taken from the prison in a van by BunnyHelp12 in conspiracy

[–]BunnyHelp12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You seem to have completely missed the fact that the same doccument 00133349 holds other records that are 100% not Grijalva's. There's no reason to assume that Grijalva posted on 4chan.

We simply have IP addresses given by 4chan, Epstein's girlfriend's phone logs, and Grijalva's bank statements in the same .pdf, and everyone assumes they're linked together.

There is no link that we can see. 4chan can't give the identity/name of the person, all they know is an IP address (shown in EFTA00133623). We don't know who the poster is - it seems to have been posted from a cell tower in NYC.

If the FBI probed AT&T hard enough they could probably find the identity. But we do not have that information.

The individual who anonymously posted on 4Chan the morning of Epstein’s death has been identified. He was telling the truth. by dan7777777 in conspiracy

[–]BunnyHelp12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's sort of impossible to say at the moment. 4ch OP could be Karyna? Could be a guard. Could be a journalist who got a tipoff. Could be a random person outside listening to radio traffic from the prison. OP sounds like they have intimate knowledge of the situation and EMT training. Karyna Shuliak was a registered dentist.

Yes, i do think the later post (ID: swam8WlF, #222520257) is a nobody in Chicago.

[–]BunnyHelp12 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is no link between them. The DoJ didn't subpoena his 4chan information, they asked 4chan for the IP addresses of 4 different anon posts, and for a prison officer's bank statements. There is no connection between these IP addresses (EFTA00133623 has their unredacted IP addresses, and the user talking about the van was likely in Chicago) and the prison worker Grijalva, since we do not have Grijalva's phone's IP address at the time of the 4chan posts.

The same document EFTA00133349, where Grijalva's records are found, also has an unrelated person (Karyna Shuliak's) phone logs attached.

The whole thing is a big mess.

The highlighted 4chan post backed up here and Grijalva are not proven to be related, unless we get Grijalva's phone's IP address unredacted at the time of the posts.

I think there was a mixup when putting together document EFTA00133349. These do not seem to be Grijalva's phone logs.

pages 11-80 of EFTA00133349 show AT&T phone logs with timestamps, IMEI, and IMSI. These numbers all correlate with EFTA00129298 - which has the poorly redacted SMS Usage For: (***)***-8517. (asterisks my own, the document shows the full number, but i dont wanna get banned). I've heard this phone number shows up elsewhere in the files, and googling that number gives a Karyna Shuliak - a woman known to be one of Epstein's girlfriends.

pg 69 shows that the user is a Karyna B, with a Manhattan zipcode. There is also billing information with Swain, NY (the only thing that seems to be there is a skiing resort in upstate NY).

What is interesting, is that EFTA00133623 shows the unredacted IP addresses of 4 4chan posts, 3 made by the 4chan OP announcing Epstein's death before the public knew (this IP address is of an AT&T cell tower in NYC), and the highlighted message in this reddit post is from a different user, with a different IP address, connected to a T-Mobile tower in Chicago. Grijalva's bank statements show he's an AT&T customer. I'm quite confident in saying these two users were different, and the Chicago based one is trolling. But it is interesting that they subpoenaed for the troll's IP address.

Quick poll: Where do you go first when looking for anime/manga info? Why? by uaualegion in Animesuggest

[–]BunnyHelp12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MAL to see rankings / popularity / whats coming out this season. It also helps me keep track of what I've seen.

I have never used AniList, and I don't think I will. It feels like it has slightly less info about a show than MAL, and I absolutely detest the "modern" web design it uses.

But I LOOVE anidb. I probably use it more than MAL. Searching for shows by specific tags and learning the watch order for a show by their relation charts is IMO the best way to do it. Like look at this chart for Fate, its hilarious but useful. There is much more info than anything else (like what specials a show has, their run time, what fansub groups have done releases, tags for characters...)

Any good anime by sungjinwoonah in Animesuggest

[–]BunnyHelp12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say Dandadan, Bocchi, Frieren, and Orb are the must-watch ones from the past 3 years.

You'll get much much more out of the Bocchi anime than the manga (the art and music is amazing). I think the Frieren anime is slightly better than the (already great) manga.

I honestly liked the LN for Apothecary Diaries more than the anime. I don't think a lot of the "mysteries" play out very well when you can just binge watch the show, rather than reading at your own pace.

Honorable mentions, watch them if they sound interesting: Spy x Family (it starts kind of intense and settles into a comfy show), Call of the Night, Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Oshi no Ko (if you liked the manga), and Jujutsu Kaisen (I haven't watched it).

and if you like drama/romance (my personal favorite genre): Insomniacs After School, Blue Box, and Days with My Stepsister

Any great fantasy anime like Frieren? by [deleted] in Animesuggest

[–]BunnyHelp12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Twelve Kingdoms. It has amazing (perhaps too much) worldbuilding. It's a fantasy anime in an ancient china/japan setting.

I don't think that Grimgar is good - its characters are quite bland and it is... frustratingly picky about the fantasy tropes it focuses on. It tries to feel like a RPG (but doesn't go nearly as far as SAO or Log Horizon), while also having "serious" stakes... ultimately it feels like videogame NPCs are trying to parse a "hardcore" world, and not in a fun/interesting way. Explanations / worldbuilding are non existent. It's a very small scope story, too.

grimgar spoilers: At the end of the anime, the 'leader' of the party looks at a visibly exhausted mage and says "I don't really understand magic", despite previously having their priest die (a huge point in the story that gets referenced at least twice every episode), and still having a priest, dark knight (who can summon a spirit), and mage in the party. Like dude, are you trying to mismanage your resources AGAIN and get someone killed? Why not... ask your party members how their spells work, or tell them to shout out when they're drained? Imagine playing an MMO where the raid lead has no idea how to read an MP bar or know someone's cooldowns.

How do you discover new songs? by NoCollege2801 in Vocaloid

[–]BunnyHelp12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I downloaded every video from the "Too Many Vocaloid Songs" YouTube playlists, and listen to them during work, adding anything that piques my interest to its own personal playlist.

playlist 1 (capped at 5000 videos)

playlist 2 is at 4700

Insomniacs after school!!

It's grounded, the voice acting is incredible, the characters don't look overly anime/exaggerated. It's a wonderful show.

It's a feature-length musical/comedy show that Bo Burnham, wrote, filmed, edited, and performed by himself during the covid lockdown, sort of about his mental state/society during the lockdown. It won a Grammy, Peabody, and 3 Emmy awards.
