Ranma fanfiction circa 1990s: - Ranma gets stuck as a girl. Hates it. Angst ensues while trying to make peace with it. Also, unintended pregnancy because reasons. Ranma fanfiction today: - Ranma gets stuck as a girl. Loves it because now she's her true self. Also, everybody else is trans too.

I trust my followers are smart individuals who won't do this, but just in case: DO NOT GIVE YOUR CREDIT CARD INFORMATION TO A NAZI BAR FOR FUCK'S SAKE DON'T DO IT.

X Money is launching in the US starting today

More, please.

I remember watching him host "Silicon Spin" during the halcyon days of ZDTV/TechTV in the late 90s / early 2000s. He was quite the opinionated pundit. Haven't heard much of what he had done since then, but I salute his legacy.

BREAKING: John C. Dvorak has died.

reminder that history has always been multiple events happening concurrently, but humans having the ability to see these events unfold in practically live-time is VERY new because of the internet. we were not built to handle this level of constant stress. 🧶(+)

This was probably the funniest headline I've seen for the event.

From Reddit: "The client with the smallest budget has always, without exception, been the most demanding." www.reddit.com/r/Entreprene...

Today (Nov 18th) marks 7 years since the Kyoto Animation arson attack Remember the 36 lives lost, those who were injured, and the incredible resilience of all at Kyoto Animation. The stories and works they created continue to inspire fans around the world. (Credit to @animeupdates on Xwitter.)

If you're even a _tiny_ bit into security and privacy, pay attention to this one. A court filing in a case against cyberhacker Peter Stokes revealed Microsoft's GDID embedded in EVERY Win11 install provided the FBI the ability to trace his PC across VPNs(!!) & proxies(!!) across three countries.

Microsoft admits Windows 11 has a GDID tracker with no off switch, first documented publicly in an FBI hacker complaint

GDID is the persistent Windows ID that helped FBI trace a Scattered Spider hacker despite VPNs. Here's how it works and how to limit it.

Nobody talks about how Lain is half film & half digital, so it's always changing frame rates. The show FEELS different on a CRT in 480i. Also, they COMPLETELY changed the colors for the HD releases. People aren't gaslighting you. The VHS version legitimately looks like a completely different anime.

Doing a rewatch of Contact. Free to watch legit on YouTube. At 57:16 there's a scene of fans crowding the observatory, one with a sign offering UFO abduction insurance by the "St. Laurence Agency". I looked that up, and guess what? That's actually real. $25 gets you $10M coverage. www.ufo2001.com

i had no idea this would become so literal

Sony buying the anime industry and then immediately trying to kill physical media is insane to me. Anime only exists because of DVD and blu-ray sales. They are throwing a horse in the ocean and telling it to evolve into a whale

I only have a Fan membership, which means that I will not be able to access this store. I would have to pay an extra $4 a month / $48 a year.

never forget what they took from us

Crunchyroll announced they are changing the Crunchyroll Store • In August, you will need to be a Mega or Ultimate Fan to access the CR Store • The new experience will feature curated drops and Crunchyroll‑exclusive merch • Select Items will be 50% off starting tomorrow

If anyone is getting smacked with this - just use deer.social or another alternate client. Bsky is just an AT Protocol Client, and your Bsky account is an AT Protocol account - you can use your same Bsky account thru another AT Protocol Client, no migration or loss necessary. Could not be easier.

WHA OH!!! Anyway use deer.social

Nah. Brain transplant into cyborg body. No hormones needed.

sometimes I get a glimpse into the heavily parasocial sections of fandom spaces and it makes me REALLY glad I'll never be the face of anything. Once someone becomes known enough to become a meme people stop seeing them as a person at ALL and will just say the wildest shit abt them like it's normal

Due to the new news that Motoko will be sharing a voice actress with Ranma for the English dub, and Nuku Nuku sharing a voice actress with Ranma in Japanese, that just increases the need for a crossover between the (mostly?) robot girls.

I’d like to see this because I’m a glutton for punishment, but what I’d like more is a big Blu-ray box of all extant tenchi anime, the LETS JUST SEE HOW MUCH OF THIS YOU GET THROUGH, COWARD collection

This too is Anime Burger Time

it happened, crunchyroll ate right stuf and then just let the macross licenses float away down the river this sort of thing happens more than you might think. but man, I spent like 2 years thinking "they couldnt possibly, the production work is DONE, so why...?" aaaaand it's gone to anime ltd.

Daryl Surat@darylsurat.bsky.social · last mo.

Obviously the meme is going around, but apparently it's kind of us all being Jebaited. Looks like in December Anime Limited is releasing the Blu-Rays of Macross Delta. And apparently also Macross Frontier, which is the one I'm much more interested in. So we got derailed four years but IT'S HAPPENING

Brilliant. How real trolling is done.

It's funny that Sony thinks there's gonna be another console gen after this one.
