  • Honestly, pretty decent adaptation so far.
    I like the VA for Sung Jinwoo. He’s definitely doing a banger job.

    But I do miss some of the more intricate page-spanning artworks where you had to scroll from left to right to even get the full picture of what’s going on. I guess that is just very hard to adapt to an animated format.


  • Okay, so far not bad.
    I like that they don’t rush things, but I haven’t really felt blown away either.
    The manhwa managed to really incorporate the amazing art on these beautiful colored pages with big impressive moments, but that’s not the vibe I am getting from the anime yet. Hoping for episode 2 to do “the grin” justice.




  • Troll post or shill, same account recently asked “why do people dislike google, they’re only doing legal data saving for stuff you search” and then ignored every bit of legitimate croticism that was handed to them.

    Makes no sense to interact with such an account.



  • “Legal” doesn’t immediately mean “moral”. Everything is legal as long as there isn’t a law specifically banning it, and those laws often only get created as a result of someone abusing their legal right to something.

    Google collects also way more data than you pointed out, in every avenue possible. Ever solved a captcha? You likely helped Google train their image recognition AI. Got an android smartphone (a brand that previously had committed itself to being open-source and linux based)? Have fun with pre-installed unremovable Google Spyware. You’re forced to create a GMail account to interact with the whole App ecosystem of the market.
    Google can remotely (without your consent) download and delete apps on your smartphone, read your personal data (including stuff you have saved on your SD card) and accesses your camera, pictures and GPS-Data regularly.

    I just read an article to prepare for writing this comment and feel actually sick now, I wanna jump ship and get an independent OS, screw the AppStore…







  • Personally, I block anything related to news&politics on the fediverse (same on reddit).

    Humans have a structural problem with any system that allows voting on the visibility of headlines. It encourages outrage, populism, attention grabbing headlines while discouraging more refined factual discussions. Kinda like tabloid journalism.
    Reddit has the same problem and way worse, but with enough time it will happen here too.

    Most users read the headline before giving their own opinion, not many take their time to read a majority of other comments and the least amount of users actually read the linked article (which is to be honest also often the fault of the quality of an article, i.e. being too long, boring and partially ai-generated).

    This results in the most lukewarm most agreeable opinions being top comments, while they’re also oftentimes being uninformed.

    This is just what I gathered from my own personal experience with social media, I don’t have any good sources to back up my claims.







  • finally a decent use of this dumbass meme format.

    I hate how the majority of the time this is used, it can be summed up with “girls boring, boys fun haha”.
    Thought we left that sorta thinking behind in elementary school?
    Anyway, fuck gender stereotypes, we’re all just humans trying to wing it.
