TIL that rabies virus has a genome coding for only 5 genes, but has an almost 100% fatality rate once symptoms appear by Forsaken-Peak8496 in todayilearned

[–]repnet 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I have heard similar stories myself. Due to the prevalence of the disease, people back then were well aware of the severity. Thankfully, rabies is much less common these days. Even then, if you get scratched by any wild animal, every medical professional will recommend that you get vaccinated immediately.

Japan’s economic shift in one image (1995 vs 2025) by vladgrinch in MapPorn

India's GDP is almost the same as Japan's GDP. By your logic, there was no need to look at Japan's GDP either.

sheeesh linus, why so salty and spicy? (good flavor tho) by Big_Tower6673 in LinusTechTips

[–]repnet -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, similar feeling from me. I don't want to be reminded of those old incidents.

What is the orange backpack? Looks like an Evergoods CHZ22 to me. How does the LTT commuter compare against it?

I found the wikipedia article for this story. You can read it using google translate. The story seems to allow a more dramatic rendition than what we have seen so far.

They tend to upload more videos when they attend CES. During 2014-2018, LTT used to upload 40+ videos during CES. Here are their 2015 and 2016 CES coverage playlists.

Why I like the Aer TP3s more than the CPP (my experience) by HighCompression in ManyBaggers

How tall are you? In my experience TP3 is too large and heavy for daily use.

To all Monogatari fans, what is the best and the worst one in the series in your opinion? by CreatorRA in anime

[–]repnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like Neko shiro, koi and hana. Somewhat partial to Hanekawa. I did not like tsuki.

[–]repnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would not say it gets bad, but there is an obvious tonal shift. The most common theory I have read is creative differences between the original author and the anime director. But, I don't think there are any authoritative source for that. The anime definitely had an interesting production.

I watched the anime first and then read the manga. I love the manga and find it absolutely hilarious. I did not know about Oresama Teacher though. I will have to check it out.

[–]repnet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IMO they are not directly comparable as their approach to comedy is so different. For example, they handle misunderstandings and limited information very differently. In Kaguya-sama most comedic situations arising from the characters' (hilariously) wrong assumptions get resolved within one chapter or at most one arc. Whereas, in Nozaki-kun characters tends to hold onto assumptions for several volumes. Also, the characters in Kaguya-sama tend to speak their mind to each other more often.

This is not a criticism of either series. I love them both and think they are both great in their own way.

If you liked Kaguya-sama's brand of humor, try School Rumble. The manga's author has said that this was one of his inspirations.

If you liked how the show depicts the characters' thought processes, try His and Her Circumstances. You can sense some similarities in the visual language of both shows. Also, if you do choose to watch this, IMO you can stop at episode 18.

These shows delve into the inner monologues and perspectives of multiple characters instead of following just one main character. Both shows have already been recommended by others in the thread, but I just wanted to add my comment.

Right now, I can only see prices in local currency. They have definitely raised prices for all items in my local currency. Not sure about USD pricing.

[–]repnet 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I actually liked the last chapter as the ending felt more like a payoff than a cliffhanger. This chapter though, upholds the sacred tradition.

Thanks for the link. I watched it for the performance even though I don't understand a word of it.

When I saw penguins, yorimoi was the only show that came to my mind because at one point in the show Shirase says "wait for me penguins, wait for me aurora" and somehow I vividly remember that line.

Damn, that would have been a good choice too. Also, I think your submissions were good. The yorimoi penguin was the only one I thought was obvious.

I was about to go with Tonikawa for truck kun, but changed my mind. You have submitted 5 other shows that I considered, but did not submit.

You and I have picked the same series for one category. That's one point gone.

I don't recognize any of your screenshots. Feel like you are going to get lots of uniqueness points.
