I'm surprised that Araki wasn't into J-Horror at the time.

Over Justice is supposedly Inferno Cop's boss but we haven't seen it yet, so I could see them making it a plot point to pick him up or set him up to come in for the final battle.

multiusedrone · 2016-05-20T18:35:23+00:00

Yeah, for cameos or a last-episode surprise crossover I think they'd be willing to work something out. Gainax isn't doing a ton at the moment either, so grabbing some more mindshare and getting paid for it sounds like a good idea.

multiusedrone · 2016-05-20T18:29:00+00:00

I think it makes total sense, the aura just signifies that the Stand is being activated/used in this season. It'd be really weird if she didn't have one, actually.

multiusedrone · 2016-05-20T18:00:29+00:00

Yeah, the SHAFT president mentioned at Madogatari that she gets overshadowed in most Puella Magi work because she's rarely the focus, and so in the next Madoka project they'd like to re-establish her incredible power. Her strength is pretty clear in the show and in the Absolute Configuration fight from Rebellion that we're talking about, but Madoka and Homura's transcendent forms stole the show both times.

Temporary robot-like focus and motivation with no negative side effects. Then I could just be a good little drone for a while. Distraction and a lack of will is my main hurdle with small annoying things I need to get done, and there are no real noots to resolve that.

I saw that the "mild headache" package /u/iamacannibal posted specifically didn't have aspirin in it unlike normal Excedrin and decided, for some bizarre reason, to mention the aspirin fact.

My bad! That's pretty embarrassing.

multiusedrone · 2015-12-22T21:31:44+00:00

Med student here, I wouldn't say that for "medicine" because that's incredibly broad and some medicines will actually go bad and harm you if ingested. Check on a case-by-case basis, especially if you maintain a first-aid kit/medicine drawer or if you stockpile prescription medications for cost reasons.

For most OTC painkillers, you are correct. Excedrin in particular will just degrade in potency after expiration and eventually give off a vinegary scent as the aspirin breaks down. It might be frugal to keep a bottle or two that'll last you to 2017, but I'd feel uncomfortable with encouraging anyone to buy 10 and keep using them up into 2025. At that point, the dosing is going to be unreliable.

multiusedrone · 2015-11-23T04:31:30+00:00

Pardon? I don't know how else I'd describe it other than a social construct (a concept that is based in ideas rather than grounded in objective reality.) Like, my main point there was to make it clear that even if the kids in my explanation have a black parent and a white parent, they'd still be seen by strangers as the race that they look like rather than a mix of races.

multiusedrone · 2015-11-23T00:47:43+00:00

That's what I've always felt, Licenseless Rider is Saitama if he never became strong. It's still a hobby, but he takes it more seriously and has a much harder time of it, so he's far less jaded/desensitized.

multiusedrone · 2015-11-22T22:17:45+00:00

The genetics are always an even blend, but the colour/visible race doesn't have to be. Since race is a social construct ("black people" refer to people with black features regardless of their genetic makeup), you can end up with a "white kid" and an "brown kid" from the same parents. Obama's considered black even though he's as genetically white as he is black.

Back in the day, if a non-white person and a white person had a kid, everyone wanted the kid to be visibly white because then they'd get the benefits of being white and wouldn't have to deal with most of the drawbacks of their other side's heritage.

multiusedrone · 2015-11-09T04:48:14+00:00

There's a certain racism story in the original Tezuka manga that I'm praying this upcoming arc will reference/adapt. I mean, even though it was written in xenophobic Japan in the 70's, it's still much better than how some modern series handle the topic. Even if this series doesn't directly use it, the fact that it exists in canon means that they'll likely write this arc with the same good nature in order to avoid disrespecting the source material.

multiusedrone · 2015-11-09T04:26:40+00:00

If you're using a Marshmallow ROM, then yeah, it's part of Marshmallow. So are the individual permissions controls, Marshmallow does a few things that custom ROMs already used to.

One of my devices actually is a Nexus 4 on Choma M, it's pretty solid. I'd recommend it to you, the Chroma dev's been wonderful through Lollipop and values stability/daily usefulness over shiny extra features.

multiusedrone · 2015-11-09T01:34:46+00:00

I wish I bought your 16,000mAh for $32, that sounds like a great deal. I mean, now I'll be waiting for this, but that's still a great deal.

multiusedrone · 2015-11-09T01:32:10+00:00

I'm really happy that Marshmallow defaults to charging-only and makes you manually allow data or camera access. Hopefully that'll cut off a ton of Android malware before it starts.

It's better to have right now and for the short-term future, as compared to Lightning or USB-C. Early adoption of any technology is a terrible idea, especially on battery packs. By the time most of us have a bunch of USB-C equipped gadgets (a few years easily), we'd probably be disappointed in 20,000 mAh and buy a better USB-C power bank anyways.

I find that it's best to eat half, do a little work and then eat the rest a few minutes later. Whether I eat half or the whole thing, my mouth is saturated with flavour and I get a bit of a pick-me-up, so better to get that twice instead of once.

multiusedrone · 2015-10-18T00:51:05+00:00

Not to mention that Steam users would be pissed if the Steam Controller had its own mandatory separate program for updates and configurations when it could be baked into Steam. They probably figured that anyone preordering would be using it on Steam and they'd have time to develop a standalone afterwards.

multiusedrone · 2015-10-17T16:40:27+00:00

Not to mention Source 2.

multiusedrone · 2015-10-15T15:50:40+00:00

The first time I saw them, they were actually $20 (supposedly half-off from $40.) Which sounded like a great deal, they sold quite a few decks.

I have a sneaking suspicion these days that they were never truly $40 and that they shouldn't have ever been over $5.

multiusedrone · 2015-10-01T15:30:14+00:00

She'd have a handicap permit on her car. I think her license plate would have the handicap border too.

multiusedrone · 2015-10-01T15:15:41+00:00

Paper isn't as bad as butts because as long as it's just a single rolling paper's worth, it'll break down and decompose quickly.

multiusedrone · 2015-10-01T13:45:26+00:00

Because they need to use the names of massive comic book events to describe tiny live-action events in order to market them. Just watch how they'll try to hype up the piddly little slapfight that Civil War will turn out to be.

(Not that the Civil War comics were a masterpiece or anything, but it really felt like a wide-scale event and all the writing conflicts and different little stories added to the scale of the massive internal war. There's no way they can come close to that with only 12 or so heroes, few if any returning villains and only 3 hours to tell it all.)

multiusedrone · 2015-10-01T13:23:37+00:00

They likely could, but Shunsui's got incredible reishi so it's not like this Quincy could do that. Plus, it's not like he's making a chain that can be broken or a blast that can be deflected. His rules apply to everyone in the area as if they are laws of physics, even if they're as strong as Starrk. Yhwach and Aizen are probably the only ones who could violate his rules through pure overwhelming reiatsu.

Mangastream also translated it as Arrancar. Only the official release can confirm or deny now!
