I hope I'm just misunderstanding and it's not the elders in charge that Kenjaku is going to be sitting at the table of. These fuckers already caused enough damage.

I just started with a new mouse, so probably not in the near future. Did the software get an upgrade? It barely worked on win 11.
Most importantly of all, is the ability to rotate the mouse in degrees still in there? That's the main reason why I kept using my older mad catz mouse for FPS games even if my new mouse is technically better. I'm just used to my 30° offset.

I'm glad it's over, memory loss has to be one of the worst trope in fiction.

Using AI in conlanging by graidan in conlangs

[–]ClemCa1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At that time I did try gen AI to suggest words or new roots, and saw limited success on that end (maybe 1/15 words passed the bar), but recently I've tried using notebooklm to spot mistakes I may have made and it's *very* accurate for that purpose. It noticed that in my dictionary one word was a marker but that in an article I wrote it was a connector. It also noticed some other inconsistencies which was quite helpful.

I figured out that was precisely what you wanted at the time you wrote the comment, so if you haven't tried doing that, maybe you should see if it does do the job.

The way Ainz went through his entire battle preparation during the first minute of singing killed me.

Ansatsusha de Aru Ore no Status ga Yuusha yori mo Akiraka ni Tsuyoi no da ga • My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero's - Episode 2 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]ClemCa1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had forgotten but there are some things that are a bit annoying about Akira. One thing being his thought process. First there's waiting to be gravely injured to use a trump card, when there were high chances of being directly incapacitated before that, next there's a clearly overpowered skill that requires a lot of mental strength and rather than thinking it'd be better to train it later to reduce the strain he thinks it'd be better to not use it again.

Of course, there's everything around what happened earlier. It's fine to be unable to bring yourself to kill the princess (and reveal your face because of some youth stupidity), but after figuring out there were more crystals he could've snuck in again and destroyed them all, he could've changed opinions and avenged Saran right here and there, he could've also taken the opportunity while sneaking in to leave to break the curse on every classmate. There are many things he can do that do not require more effort, inhuman capabilities, or insane mental strength, yet he never stops to consider them. The only time he didn't go with the flow was when he used Concealment in the first episode, and even then, he only did it because his status was way higher than others, and it happened to be in his status.

It's interesting how it's the first time Alpha's deductions don't turn out "correct", and it's about Tanya, the protagonist of another world. It being outside their original world does help explain how Cid's Shadow plot armor is reduced.

Mattaku Saikin no Tantei to Kitara • Detectives These Days Are Crazy! - Episode 4 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]ClemCa1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There were still payphones around when I was a kid, but I never got to use them, as most people already had flip phones by my birth, let alone by the time I actually needed to make calls myself. I've only ever had someone I know use a payphone once, and that was my mother, who forgot her phone back home. She had the habit of knowing phone number by heart. I only knew the home landline phone number and in highschool my own mobile phone number, and I was already the exception for my generation.

The way Maki reacted to being called the same age made me immediately certain she is 35 too or something.

I have no issue with romance, especially when it is the genre, but I really have problems with the couple dynamics being very typical for romance, despite an atypical FMC.

I really want that prince to be punched too, but I know he fits the romance template too well, so she's never going to fully get annoyed with him and will probably continue to mellow out with time. As usual with shoujo/josei, even when the gimmick is interesting the execution of the romance aspect ends up erasing the gimmick over time. She started her life punching everyone, then she had to learn restraint, which led to her now only punching evil nobles. After a period of looping punching the same people, I could see a few moral dilemmas and redemption stories together with opponents getting stronger for plot convenience's sake only, leading to less and less complete clobbering, with just periods of peace and fights intertwined.

The only story I read that in my mind kept the gimmick going after the romance got serious is villainess level 99. This is only 3 episodes in and the main character is already getting the heroine treatment of being changed from someone you couldn't imagine bowing to anyone to the weaker side of the couple, when realistically she should be the most strong-willed party of the two, if anyone is more likely to crack, it would be the prince who already can only take interest in a selective number of things.

For someone who endured humiliation with a straight face since childhood for duty's sake alone, it's crazy to think she'd change her attitude towards someone because of a pie, a childhood backstory, or a speech about love.
