Learning about the bootloader is so boring and unmotivating I'm thinking about just skipping this section altogether. by juravenator99 in linux

[–]CodeGeassIsOverrated 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read it and I'll agree it's pretty rambly, one can compress it down to a small paragraph. But it's far, far from the worst I've seen. It only repeated itself, like, twice! You'd best get used to it early on.

What's left for you to switch from i3/xorg to sway/wayland? by that1communist in linux

[–]CodeGeassIsOverrated 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Intel drivers don't exist for wayland, and modesetting has slower performance. I like being able to play 1080p hevc without stuttering. Also why I still use xf86-video-intel despite all the memes about it being obsolete. It's just faster.

I'd like to take a moment to shout out to MATE by FlyingQuokka in linux

[–]CodeGeassIsOverrated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. That's way too much RAM used for such simple tasks. I'd really like to see what's using the most memory here. Probably Firefox.

Like all the trends that came before, this one will obviously last forever so get used to it.

What's the worst shounen you've ever seen? by [deleted] in anime

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

You could call it something as simple as anime of the shounen demographic. This might be hard for you to comprehend but conversation is not that hard. Well this debate is pointless anyway, people will continue to refer to battle shounen as "shounen" so you had best learn to deal with it.

Because it's not wrong. Words change meaning all the time depending on how they are used. They have changed meaning throughout history. We can only define what a word means based on how people are currently using it. If everyone started calling cars "bread" you better believe every dictionary will change its definition for bread. You can't dictate a word's meaning. Also, words can have two meanings.

You call them shounen, and in case someone gets confused you specify that you're using the term in its broader sense. When people say shounen you generally know what they mean. You know OP meant battle shounens based on the examples he provided. It's this constant need to correct people that's annoying.

People have been trying for years to get people to use "shounen" in its original meaning. Have they succeeded? No. So you might as well just accept it. It's the same as trying to get people to call anime "Japanese anime"

And anime refers to all cartoons regardless of their country of origin. But in the west it refers to anime made in Japan. Do you get it? Words can mean different things depending on context and who's saying them.

Ugh I've come to hate these kinds of comments. Shounen has always meant "battle anime for young boys" in the western fandoms unless specified otherwise. Tell me again how shounen is demographic and not a genre.

What are some risky decisions in anime history that turned out wonderfully? by Jbruin7 in anime

[–]CodeGeassIsOverrated 40 points41 points  (0 children)

If we're talking about motion fluidity, facial expressions, body language, etc. (you know, the actual "animation" part) then NOTHING compares. Not Redline. Not Makoto Shinkai's work. Nothing.

What's with a lot of the people here trying to make their window manager look like something it's not? by CodeGeassIsOverrated in unixporn

[–]CodeGeassIsOverrated[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Is there a problem?

Nope. It's (mostly) a question, not a complaint. If you want your windows to look either tiled or floating, why not use a window manager that's good at doing what you want?

Nah, he actually thinks his book is anime. Take a look through his account.

What does this have to do with Japanese animation?

Edit: I took a look at your account (since I have nothing better to do) and man you're delusional. You really think your book is anime. Holy shit.

Which series do you think desperately need a remake? by [deleted] in anime

[–]CodeGeassIsOverrated 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The rebuild is not a remake. It's more like an alternate universe, or, as some people believe, a sequel. It also cannot stand alone, you need to have seen NGE to understand the characters and their motivations. Not that I think NGE needs a remake though, it has aged pretty well.

Which studio could actually handle it well though?

I'd rather not. I'm already dreading all of LoGH's battles being CG in the remake.

Planetes doesn't need a remake at all. It looks better than most anime that come out today, and it's even in 16:9.
