If you want to try the official beer version there’s a Duff brewery at both Universal Studios Hollywood and Orlando

I hope you can take some solace in the fact that you gave her a good life and made her feel loved. May you one day meet again.

Same, the physical camera button and 3.5mm headphone jack on the Xperia are awesome

That’s refreshing to see in a world of ever increasing enshittification. Wish more companies move in this direction.

Somewhat related PSA. I used to have an unscreened window in my home office and started noticing birds would fly into it on occasion. Found out it’s actually pretty common and can be fatal to the unwitting bird, so I put some post-it notes on the window to help them see/avoid it. There are ready-made products for this exact purpose as well. Both seem to do the job and cut down on collisions.

Use libro.fm instead and part of your subscription goes to an independent bookstore of your choosing

Looks very relaxing and peaceful. Some of my favorite camping trips have been in the eastern Sierras.

MSFT has a $3T market cap and $60B of free cash flow each year, so I doubt they’re hurting for money. This is how “growth at all costs” incentivizes myopic decision-making and doesn’t really help foster an environment where studios are willing to take creative risks. Even when they succeed (a la Hi-Fi Rush) they’re on the perpetual chopping block.

Yeah, I agree. A-1 did a great job with it. Hoping for the same with Fate/strange Fake

86 -Eighty Six-. Been pretty good so far. I’m a fan of Hiroyuki Sawano’s music in general

Growing up watching Dragon Ball and DBZ is a fond memory and definitely a reason I got into anime like many others. Thanks for sharing your creativity with the world. RIP Toriyama-san.

They also recently won a deal with Rakuten Mobile to supply RAN equipment in Japan

Kyoto is a magical city, rain or shine

Petting my dog now, have to agree with Charlie

100%. Seems like phones continually get worse under the guise of “progress”. No more headphone jack or removable battery, more bloated software, anti-privacy assistants/AI. Switched to a Sony Xperia for the headphone jack alone and it’s been great, I hope they don’t follow this AI trend or else I’m out.

Damn. Season 2 has been crushing it too, especially with all the epic fight scene animations. Hope they figure things out and give the animators better working conditions.

Those are rookie numbers, gotta pump those up. First world ballers are working 140+ hours/week. /s

Cowboy Bebop is timeless.

Fate Stay Night: UBW and other Fate series.

Currently enjoying Jujutsu Kaisen.

Terrible. Getting caught up in a geopolitical fight while you’re just trying to eke out a living. Hope their families find peace.

The area has witnessed increasingly frequent run-ins between Philippine vessels and tiny wooden fishing boats against much larger Chinese coast guard ships and what Manila says are shadowy Chinese “maritime militia” fishing vessels.

Wooden fishing boats vs. steel hull ships tells you everything about who’s the aggressor. Hope they find a resolution.
