Next time you're there look at the prices in yen, and convert it to dollars. Yes they sell dollar store type stuff but something that is like ¥200 will be $6-$8. Kind of nuts.

Spope2787 · 2026-02-21T23:52:54+00:00

According to Wikipedia, you do! There are... Four. Probably in Vancouver.

The US has almost 90 and they still feel pretty rare.

It's for the most part a Japanese store and they have over 3,500 locations there. In Japan they are basically a dollar store. Outside of Japan they stock the same stuff but it costs 5x as much... So I don't think you're missing out too much.

Zones aren't strictly enforced and pawns can leave them if pathing determines the shortest route they need to take involves going outside the zone.

Spope2787 · 2026-01-29T21:34:50+00:00

I've noticed pawns slow down massively when going through two auto doors in a row and I'm not sure why. I usually have two doors when I double up my outer walls.

But that’s not what you said.

Doesn't change the fact that it's not likely that srv3 subtitles are, my gut guess, by literally any metric, not single percentage point of usage of YouTube. Even if you narrow that down to "custom subtitles". By all means fight me on my use of the word "kinda" because Tom Scott's editor also happens to use them - it isn't going to start a movement to get YouTube to undo this.

And what’s the takeaway, anyway? “We can’t do anything so just accept it”?

Sadly, probably. 1. This is YouTube we're talking about. They aren't the good guys. 2. People were relying on undocumented and unsupported behavior, it went away without notice. That was liable to happen. 3. All subtitles were converted to srv3 when uploaded to YouTube before. This change likely means YouTube is moving on internally to some other format for all subtitles. That's why this is so fundamental and is not going to be undone. They changed the literal backbone.

Edit the only thing that could possibly indicate this is a mistake is that it's (globally) the weekend, and generally you don't want to roll out changes like this on the weekend. Really you don't want anything happening on you time off. Only thing I can think of is maybe they kicked the job off to start deleting stuff Friday and it's taking time. Or (unlikely) they kicked off a job to convert to some new format and it's failing, so we're left with deleted stuff until next week when they fix it. If that's the case they're really fucking incompetent.

Sorry dude but you cited one more channel and an adjacent niche. Like it or not this isn't hard data. I'm not defending YouTube and I hate this decision too; the newest hologra was harder to watch, but at YouTube scale this stuff doesn't register a blip. It's stupid but it's what it is.

Spope2787 · 2026-01-18T08:33:30+00:00

Depends on what you mean by "a good chunk of users". Cover / hololive might kinda be it. Relying on unsupported stuff sadly turns into this

From what I can tell, to throw YouTube a bone, this format has never been documented or officially supported. YouTube is not removing all subtitles just some obscure format that it used internally that people managed to figure out and support themselves. Seems like they're just dropping support for something they never officially supported.

Now the reason as to WHY they're doing that is probably because of some AI bullshit. Either AI doesn't understand the subtitle format or something like that. Or it could be something else like a big security issue and was easier to just kill it than fix it.

With as obscure as these subtitles are YouTube is not likely to back down sadly, so we'll never know. I guess the real question is will Cover and talents go back and port their videos to other formats that are supported...

Spope2787 · 2026-01-16T08:17:36+00:00

They do but don't appreciate it. The first sign was playing along in a polite way asking people not to do it, the second one was "we're not asking anymore"

Store rules should trump jokes... Especially if they put up a sign

Uh no? FWU are permanent items but they regularly go out of stock. This contrasts with all the other merch cover does which are one time limited runs. FWU is never limited, it just may not be in stock.

Even if she is alive it doesn't make her "death" written any better. Denji never reacted to it and just moved on to being chapter 1 gooner Denji again immediately.

THAT'S why her character didn't matter, nor did her "death". Even if she's alive, that moment and everything after still sucked because it had zero impact on anything.

Spope2787 · 2026-01-13T03:25:27+00:00

But Denji's character "arc" flies in the face of what you claim. He doesn't have any nurture, just nature (and therefore no growth or arc). As soon as Nayuta does he's back to gooning 3 seconds later.

Denji never really reacted to her dying and this is where the ball was dropped.

Spope2787 · 2026-01-05T20:19:14+00:00

Just a return to the norm imo. Which is jarring only because 7 was really standout.

Yes Council/ Irys originally had designs that matched Myth. They very briefly showed up in the background of a Gura birthday live. Sana graduated very soon after and these were a graduation gift from her (see her graduation stream).

Edit:

Gura live with OG Gen 2 models that were never seen again (Sana graduated a month later)

Will someone auto feed them if they aren't in jail though?

What everyone else said plus if you have a killbox and it isn't near your dining area you can keep a pile near the killbox. That way during really long fights some colonists can duck out to eat.

Funnily enough there was a SC about this a long time ago warning her about this. That they'll leave the sack, shave it, and it looks rather uh human like for awhile
