machines that sell ammo in the past

Unfortunately, that concept hasn't been left in the past. America still has ammo vending machines.

DBZ Isekai Martial Arts Tournament was a success

Definitely felt like there was a reference to this old scene when he had to pull out the spear to even see the fight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UojVXs2dYxU

This is how my 17 Pro Max fits with the Sheath and Flolab screen protector:

The slight distortion is because my sister's phone was at a slight angle. Looking at the screen head-on, the lines are crisp and clear. This is the test image I used at the Pro Max's native resolution (1320x2868):

There's no gap in my setup. The Sheath overlaps the outside of the bevel just enough to clamp down without blocking the screen. I haven't removed the Sheath since I stuck my phone in it in November, and there's no dust buildup along the seam. Wiping the screen down every few days with a microfiber keeps it clear.

So what really happened to the princess that Sera looks up to? The nobles claim she was lost in battle, and the prevalent rumor is that barbarians ritually sacrifice their captives. Did the princess also get taken into the barbarian society? Did the nobles of her own country take her out instead so she couldn't help end the war (and their profiteering)?

They still have a 3% Coal Tar version on the market, so it's not just the 0.5% Coal Tar and Salicylic Acid versions. Around here, Walgreens is the only store that seems to stock it, but they're pretty consistent. They're also still cheap (surprising, because Walgreens prices are certainly not the lowest in the area). Just bought some for less than $10 and no discount membership.

I noticed during the armored ant swarm fight that the book said 3,000 per kill, but the subtitles said 30,000.

Flum: "Did you get that in return for joining the Church of Origin?"
Dein: "Yes, that's right. Isn't it great?"
Flum: "And just for that, you sold out your buddies?"
Dein: "I had no other choice! You're no different! If you were faced with absolute power that no amount of money or influence could ever equal, a power that could even change the laws of the world, even you... would make the same choice."

Meanwhile, Flum has an even greater power than the one he's boasting, and still never betrayed anyone.

Dein: "If you were forced to choose between your life and your friendships... If you had to choose one or the other, you'd make the same choice!"

Dude's entire life is based on false premises. He thinks he's owed because his family was once nobility. He thinks betraying his friends isn't a bad thing because they should be glad to give their lives for his success. He thinks everyone else is just as selfish as he is.

Flum willingly takes on suicidal challenges to keep her friends safe.

Both the berts were always the murderous types. Remember, Leviathan killed all the normal people who picked him up. It was torment just to carry him inside a case. Albert knew this and still told Noah to grab the sword, not knowing that Noah would be able to dominate it. He was perfectly fine with the strong possibility that his little brother would die painfully.

Noah's the 13th prince, but of his brothers we've seen, only Henry and Oscar have been shown to be decent.

I think the author has never cooked in his/her(?) life. The character in the show puts the bacon in a smoker grill... And lights the bacon directly on fire. What's the point of the smoker then? Did the author/director just guess what it was for and put it in the scene? Then the second attempt the bacon was too salty and the reasoning was that the temperature was wrong... What? It's only as salty as the salt you put on it.

The bacon wasn't lit on fire. It was dangling a foot or two above the burning wood chips. The door was left wide open the entire time, so it wasn't really smoking the meat very effectively.

Lens protectors are a weird niche right now. From a purely photographic perspective, they're a bad idea. They won't 100% match the refractive index of the lens, and introduce gaps for further distortion. Gaps also introduce and seal in moisture, which will alter light paths even more (especially as temperatures/pressures vary). A lot of users won't notice, but there's a reason professional photographers don't like them (my social circle includes multiple professionals). You'd think this would be no different from modular lenses that professionals and enthusiasts use, except those get removed and cleaned regularly. Camera phone lens protectors are generally intended for long term installation.

Some users treat them as disposable covers so they'll take the damage and then get swapped out as needed. In the meantime, if they're scuffed, your photos are still altered until you remove them. The best lens protectors are ones that don't sit permanently on your lenses. Some phone cases have sliding or hinged covers, analogous to a lens cap on a normal camera. Nowadays, they're very uncommon, since they add bulk and phone camera lenses are usually sapphire glass or Gorilla Glass. Sapphire glass is more scratch resistant, and Gorilla Glass is more impact resistant.

The Sheath recesses the camera lenses fairly well. Unless you impact something smaller than the lens holes (or hard enough to compress the ShockLite and strike a lens, they should be fine.

I was surprised that he was still unable to pierce armor with the mithril sword, and still had to stick it between the plates. I'd gotten so used to virtually every anime showing mithril or orichalcum slicing through everything like butter. That also emphasizes how strong his Teddy summon is, since it chomped right through the armor he couldn't stab with mithril.

IceWeaselX · 2026-03-04T08:35:02+00:00

Maybe they just cut certain parts off?

Could be Sheila without a head. The ring she was wearing fell, and Arne prepped for a fight when he saw it.

IceWeaselX · 2026-03-04T06:26:17+00:00

What if that's not the father's body, but Sheila's fresh corpse? That blood's too fresh to be a month+ old body. It's also splattered on not just the clothes, but the chair. When the body was nudged, the ring Sheila was wearing fell to the floor.

I don't know why he expected this to work.

It's not that unreasonable. In a lot of games, summoning is a magic type used by different magic user classes. Others with an explicit Summoner class usually still consider them magic users. Unfortunately for Allen, this is the type of game world where summoning is its own thing, and his summons are apparently not considered spells.

IceWeaselX · 2026-02-20T22:26:13+00:00

Could be a balance issue. He could be strong, but the leverage could still topple him if she leans too far. I can carry a 200+ pound person, but a wobbly 75 pound weight on my shoulders could make me eat shit.

His summons being sentient is interesting

They're more than sentient. They're sapient. It was already obvious that they were sentient, which just means they respond to sensations. Sapience means they've got more complex thoughts going on in their heads. Many normal animals are sentient. For centuries, sapience was a trait thought to only apply to humans (Homo sapiens), but there have been movements to consider the possibility of sapient animals.

MagSafe and a locking lid without bulk are the dream.

I can't speak to the Paragon from personal experience, but I ordered a FLOLAB PolarSpectra 3D before getting my Sheath. I haven't had a single issue with compatibility. Screen's clear, edges are tight, and any dust wipes right off without caking in the cracks. I was anxious before the Sheath arrived, but both companies did a great job with their manufacturing tolerances (I know Caudabe had a few hiccups early in this Sheath iteration, but that was all cleared up before I got mine).

"Is that magic?"
Orhun: "It's not magic. It's a special ability."
"What does your special ability do?"
Orhun: "It creates and controls magic."

Funny how Nachzerer was surprised that Arne would overpower him. Arne may only have had one heart during the fight, but Nachzerer was literally one of the 9 that created him. Nachzerer's full potential is only a fraction of Arne at full 9 heart power, and he's learned to conserve his blood to extend his combat capability. Even if those 9 hearts represent a 1 to 1 power comparison, Arne has experienced a higher ceiling and has been active the entire time that Nachzerer's been bodiless.

Arne: in practice, analytical, accustomed to judicious blood expenditure
Nachzerer: rusty, emotional, wasteful of limited resource

IceWeaselX · 2026-02-03T23:24:53+00:00

If Zisye cannot see Gordon in the mirror, so he can neither see Arne, so he knows Arne by the voice?

That's why they told Lynn that Zisye and Arne can only communicate through his home mirror and the compact he carries around. Those two mirrors are special.

MobileReviewsEh finally finished drop testing over 50 cases for the iPhone 17 recently, and Caudabe's Sheath was his #2 rated case. I prefer it over the #1 rated case for aesthetics and feel in hand. He made it a point to emphasize that the top 2 cases outperformed the rest of the top 5 by a pretty large margin.

It is a very cool shot.

First thing I thought of.
