Gintama and City, hopefully 2025 is the return of good anime. Gintama and Nichijou are my only 10/10 anime so hopefully these new titles are really good.

without moe i would have yeeted myself off of building already lol

happy moe day

I have been watching Sayonara Zetsubou sensei lately. Also Pani Poni Dash! is an interesting watch.

• Hidamari Sketch
• Lucky Star
• Non Non Biyori
• Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou
• Gochuumon wa Usagi desuka?
• Tanaka kun wa Itsumo Kedaruge

Hidamari Sketch is very underrated and is much less well known than it’s contemporaries like Lucky Star, but it’s basically the comfiest thing ever. Any CGDCT/SOL could work for this (Nichijou, Yuyushiki, Kiniro Mozaiku, K-ON!, …) but I specifically chose shows with a slower tempo.

Always kinda interesting to hear them marrying outside the industry. Imagine being a random dude but your girlfriend is a celebrity, that’s kinda crazy. Don’t even know if it would be a good thing to be honest. Do you have to do extra effort to stay outside the public eye? And for the seiyuu, I don’t think they would want to date a fan? How would you know when meeting someone that they don’t know you already but keep silent about it? Seems like it has a few extra complexities compared to two nobodies or two celebs dating.

Man I used to do SketchUp all the time in middle/high school, so nostalgic.

I watched a whole show (shikanoko) this season. So yea banger season, almost never happens lol.

Interesting mix of western and eastern calligraphy in the title. They do connect strokes within characters and also between characters (especially in kana shodo), but those flourishes are definitely western.

Ooh very good! I like the minimalistic sea and the texture on her coat is beautiful. The watercolour texture and colours are so fitting for Ghibli. If I remember correctly they do use watercolours for some of their backgrounds.

It is possible that the previous owner flashed firmware that doesn’t bind that key to anything. So the first thing to try would be flashing firmware that does bind the key. If that doesn’t work, the switch might be the problem. You could check on the back of the pcb if the soldering looks any different from the other keys. Even if it doesn’t you could reflow the key. If that doesn’t work you can unsolder the key and pull it out, open it up to see if anything is messed up like the contact leaf. You could try a different switch in that spot. If you put in a fresh key that works in the old spot and it still doesn’t work it might be the pcb. Maybe you need to reflow or replace the diode. If that doesn’t work it might be the contact pads on the pcb for the switch or the diode. When unsoldered and with the solder removed you should see a metallic ring around where the switch pin goes. If that is (partially) missing it will be trouble. It could also be the ‘wire’ that is etched into the pcb that goes from the pad to the controller. Either fixing the pad or jumping the wire is a bit more advanced (and a pain in the ass). I don’t have experience with that. Hopefully the problem is earlier in the chain. Good luck!

Me realizing I will be gin-chan’s age not so far into the future (where did the time go):

Also don’t you dare be single if you are a day older than 25 in anime lol.

I thought so, they are probably just milking the popular title with this new stuff.

Crazy, Fairy Tail above nokotan. Sometimes I forget how action brained the average anime fan is. I watched all of FT before this release and I remember nothing from the last 50% of it. I guess they fought a lot or something lol.

As a slice of life guy I don’t really watch long anime anymore. Years ago, Jojos was the last one over 100 ep that I saw. The longest slice of life anime I have seen is the terrific and absolute classic “Hidamari Sketch” coming in at a bit over 60 eps.

433 packages, impressive :) I’m stuck on 474 while keeping a working environment where I can do my things nicely. And that doesn’t count some hand compiled/written programs I have. Also, 175MiB of memory! I used to boot at around 400MB into my WM but over time it has gone up to a fat 600MB without changing anything :| Just nice to see someone going for a minimal system.

I’m not a thinkpad guy, but I thought one reason for people liking old thinkpads is that the old ones came with cpu’s that predate the intel management engine.

As a “sicko” (lol) I must say I don’t really futz around much if at all anymore. There are some differences but all in all I don’t think the Artix experience is much different from the regular Arch one.

My brain just happened to have me type it this way. Maybe it was because I was reading the source tweet so “Toukyou” got stuck in my head. Also, with multiple languages all having different ways of saying and spelling countries and cities from around the world, it can get pretty confusing at times. Going with the original or a transliteration can be a relatively safe way to go without thinking too hard about it. It simply didn’t occur to me as I typed this that it was not the usual way it is spelled in English. In conclusion, not weeb nonsense but just me struggling with languages a bit as I type things on the internet.

I always log in to my TTY. Have you tried setting your colour scheme before login? I have a mega janky setup where I add an OpenRC sysinit service that calls setvtrgb. The first lines of the startup log aren’t affected but most of them are. That way I can log in with a colour scheme consistent with that which comes after the login.

Interesting, I never heard of setting your shell in the emulator config. I just used ‘chsh’ once when I setup the install.
