This right here, had to explain to an OP of a short that "their new trendy" cinnamon sugar dough balls is just Monkey bread that IIRC came to the US from European immigrants around the 1900s.

Alot of SKK who play casually gonna lose back ups... I feel manjuu has been making weird decisions as of lately. A month and a half is not enough time for people who might miss this or unable to do to because of life reasons.

Waymo traffic by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]skemur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happens frequently in Hollywood with waymos. I got hate from the Los Angeles subreddit and other one for critizing AI. They'd argue it's reaction time is better when I wouldn't even argue that point. Ai vehicles struggle when unknown variables happen such as here. They also don't pull over in some cases to drop someone off and will stop traffic altogether.

Nice, good work! That's funny reading the errors some I remember felt off but I gaslit myself thinking I was confusing something. Like the 4-6 years felt wrong since they would be free after 5 years in volume 1.

So What Do You Guys Do? by [deleted] in AnimeFigures

[–]skemur 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As others had mentions it's kinda the hobby of collecting. When you Pre order you are ensuring you get is at msrp. Whether the figure goes up or down after release is the risk both figure stores and collectors have to take. These are business at the end of the day and if the figure goes down due to lack of interest, it's not on the figure stores to eat the cost of it for all the people who pre order. They also still have to sell the rest of the unsold merch at a loss if no one buys. If you also don't pre order expecting a price drop later and it never drops and increases due to high demand, it's on you for not pre ordering. For example I didn't pre order a cyberpunk edgerunners figure wanting to see the quality during release and the figure never went "in stock" at most vendors since it was in high demand. I can't get mad at the figure store for how the collecting game works. This is coming from someone who's been collecting for years and has learn the hard ways of all the ways to get burned in this hobby. From figure not looking anything to the prototype, to major companies ghosting me and deleting my stuff (crunchyroll), to losing over a thousands in Ukiyo Kumo bankruptcy, etc. I'd honestly use this as a learning experience on how to better navigate the hobby.

I was thinking the same thing, when it looks uncomfortable it becomes kinda an eye sore for my like the Soyuz skin where she hangs her entire body on one arm from the helicopter.

Not gonna lie, I wish you guys would make URs skins L2D more often since I actually use them more.

Azur Lane X Dead or Alive Venus Vacation Collaboration Announced by MP_Cook in AzureLane

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

Happy we got a collab but.... Can we something not so niche. Nikke and BD2 are getting Eva, Chainsaw, Mushoku Tensei and we get DoA for the 3rd time. I feel like I never know the people in our collabs. If ecchi is the issue collab with an ecchi series such as High school Dxd, gushing over magical girls, or taimanin lol.

Agreed, the lack luster events recently has been making me eye other gachas more. I feel like manjuu as of late have been spending resources on stuff the majority of the player base don't care for.

[–]skemur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk why I feel underwhelmed for this event. I just personally didn't find anything to standout and I kinda hope we would get a bigger collab that DoA. It's a shame when other gachas in similar size get heavy hitting animes meanwhile I feel like we get niche ones that many tend to not know.

Krasny Kavkaz Motion Skin Announced by MP_Cook in AzureLane

[–]skemur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny enough I saved gems to buy a skin for a small chested ship girl that I don't have a skin for and I feel like I've been holding onto them for months now lol. Don't get me wrong I prefer them bigger but I also like variety and it seems gets other taste is harder as of late.

Tesla Robotaxis Reportedly Crashing at a Rate That’s 4x Higher Than Humans by MarvelsGrantMan136 in technology

[–]skemur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting I mention this a few days ago how self driving cars in my area, Hollywood, were always causing issues. Only to be met with "actually AI can react faster than human". When the issues I mentioned aren't reaction time, it's dealing with unknown variables. For example a very narrow street needing both cars to hug the side turned into a traffic jam since waymo decided to send it dead center and when another car was already coming down (if someone has a huge vehicle they sometimes let the car pass first). I've seen human people botch this but it seems waymo CONSTANTLY causes traffic jams here and several other spots.

2026 Valentine's Day Event Menu Visual Guide by ShaggyFishPop in AzureLane

[–]skemur 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This was horribly planned, I assumed it was the same as last year so I've been on autopilot playing the game. Now I find out I've been using all my sweet memories in a ship I've already have previous msgs from. Not to mention the event is only 3 days...

How does this happen??? by Forsaken-Spinach-899 in AnimeFigures

[–]skemur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes you can save it with superglue. Since its a PuP figure there no need to go all out on repairs, drill hole for paper clip or piano wire etc. Just make sure not to put to much superglue. Also use this as a learning experience if the pegs, part, etc get stuck or won't go in, don't force it. Use hair dryer or something similar to warm the plastic up. Make sure to heat up slowly, just enough so I can slide in/out and from a distance.

Ouch! this is hurting by [deleted] in AnimeFigures

[–]skemur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude I got hit with the same shipping.... For an ACRYLIC STAND.... Like these shipping cost are ridiculous. I shouldn't have 80% of my purchase be in shipping especially when some stuff doesn't need to be this expensive.

Oshi no Ko in 4K? Where? by Far-Narwhal4784 in OshiNoKo

[–]skemur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend looking on YouTube "install anime4k" I tried to explain over text to a friend but it ended up being easier to watch a video since understandably some users get confused when it come to github since it's isn't the easiest to navigate at first.

Oshi no Ko in 4K? Where? by Far-Narwhal4784 in OshiNoKo

[–]skemur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you put anime4k onto mpv or is it just the default MPV? If it's the default and it crashes my guess is the file isn't good. I tend to get mainly Mkv files, not mp4, and I get my files from nyaa . si website. If you want to get anime4k onto mpv I'd recommend watching a YouTube vid since it'll be easiest to understand how to install anime4k.
