Not the best presentation. I could make a “sloppier” collage by for example shifting body proportions into an uncanny valley and including the tasteless average-of-all-comics-style instead of stock 3D figurines − do they have a deal with stock image vendors to not alter them too much?

I can’t activate my hyperfocus on command, sadly. It sometimes happens around trains but that’s not what the work is about.

This isn’t the G major scale, though. You need to add flats and sharps to get the right number of semitones (two per step except for 3-4 and 7-8), in this case F♯.

For example, the major 3rd from D is not F but F♯ because the D major scale has F♯ and C♯. Therefore, the basic 1-3-5 D-major chord is D-F♯-A.

Well, it’s not so easy nowadays after all the R&D that went into imitations.

The GitHub page says it’s no longer developed to protest Google’s decision against unverified app installs on Android (that has since been backtracked into a “mere” dark pattern but most likely will be reintroduced at a better time in the news cycle).

Since Kotatsu is a scraper that manga hosters don’t actively support (they would rather you use the bloated webpage or their app with ads), it’s likely that most sources will change their API or website layout enough to break it in a couple of years.

Look up “homemade Dubai lamps” or as Big Clive likes to call them, “Dooby lamps”. Basically decrease the power by 30% or more by replacing or removing one of current-sense resistors to get a many times longer lifespan. Very easy with lamps that have a linear regulator on the LED board; ones that have a switching regulator inside need to be disassembled further than just popping off the plastic globe (preferrably by milling into the housing from the SMD side of the board because that doesn’t disrupt the thermal design of the LED board). With the latter approach, I can also fix another common issue: the input inductor going open circuit, usually indicated by flashing and a burned-out bypass resistor (most often 4k7 or “472”) − I just short it, I don’t care about the little extra interference if it mskes the bulb work again.

Get the Kotatsu app for Android (via F-Droid) while it’s still working for best experience. Webtoon view recommended for this one.

I first thought this was really fucked up. Then I realized it’s not about the yuri part of the yuri.

More like books. You can’t have phones for most of the day in most psych wards so you better use that time well (ordering more printed yuri manga, perhaps).

Find a stick for life

Me to pay? It’s a hard sell even the other way around.

I always hover over the email address if there is one as a mailto: link. Occasionally, I’ll see it pointing to another person, whoever helped them set up their inbox without explaining hyperlinks.

Cop RP counts in a pinch

Yup, real, except Kiribati is many more islands. Specifically, this is the island Kiritimati.

Lesson on video compression too

And this is why ultra short throw projectors have such weird lenses and mirrors − what they’re projecting is nothing like a rectangle.
