    That's not how it works. Or, rather, that's not only how it works. Sure, advertisers dream of users who see an ad once and run to buy a product. But ad effects are spread over time. They build brand recognition. They fake familiarity. Say you are in a supermarket and you want to buy a new type of product that you haven't bought before. Very likely you'll pick something familiar-sounding, which you heard in an ad. Ads pollute the mind even if the most obvious effects are, well, obvious and easily discarded, more subtle influence remains.

    Gutting defeated/ousted manager's projects is an obligatory and unavoidable ritual in corporate environment. Competent or convenient employees are pulled into other teams, pesky/unconvenient ICs are fired since everything can be pinned on the loser. Projects are often dismantled - even profitable ones to remove any possible foothold for a comeback. Shit, now I want to write a corpo book but styled like high school biology textbook.

    Probably my favorite food manga. Shame to see it end, but it was a great series and all great things must come to an end. I only wish romance subplot had more screen time. I really really really like Sylphin.

    Based on your analogue they drive the car for 7.5 inches (614.4 Kb by 63360 inches by 20 divided by 103179878.4 Kb) and promise based on that that car travels 20mph which might be true, yes, but the scale disproportion is too considerable to not require tests. This is not maths, this is a real physical device - how would it would behave on larger real data remains to be seen.

    106 Gbps

    They get to this result on 0.6 MB of data (paper, page 5)

    They even say:

    Moreover, there is no need to evaluate our design with datasets larger than the ones we have used; we achieve steady state performance with our datasets

    This requires an explanation. I do see the need - if you promise 100Gbps you need to process at least a few Tbs.

    Plead innocence? Nah, Me and my bro Macht teamed up from the start

    And I'd fucking do it again.

    Should have shanked your captain while I had the chance.

    Glück is unfathomably based.

    Frieren is just so awkward, first she looks at Flamme and then squats to copy her.

    Honestly Richter just gave them a good advice. Also note the shape of his "too complex" spell.

    But she planned to hurt you without killing you.

    We call it a reward over here.

    ::: spoiler Denken "I wanted to visit a grave"


    Lied as naturally as he breathed. :::

    Compare the complexity of Frieren's spell to Richter's.

    Denken never misses an opportunity to advance his cause by holding Richter.

    Their nod/smile to each other after both pass is so cute.

    I liked everything in this episode except for Serie's male voice which I hated. She deserves better.

    Bird going sonic boom is just too funny:

    Nice flex bro

    Also interesting how both Frieren and Denken think about relation of their owl power as mages and the power of society.

    Because front camera is not just a feature I'm forced to pay for, despite never using it once in my life, but now it also makes my experience shittier by adding a hole in my screen. I hate that.

    I for one welcome the return of Solitar. And Bride!Frieren of course. Questions: 1. Who's breaking the illusion? Himmel? Frieren? Heiter? Eisen assist? 2. What do you think is Frieren's dream? Heiter's is boose so it's not exactly a surprise. 3. Favorite new demon?

    For many a year my needs of DMCA-ignoring VPS hosting have been met by various Eastern European hosters, who either ignored DMCA altogether or helpfully passed along all information without any further actions. Now I'm searching for the same, but near USA. Mainly to be used as a torrent seedbox, personal VPN, and so on. What countries and hosters can you recommend?

    > Everyone Is From Another World, Except Me!? > > Rocco is a novice adventurer who begins his journey to save his sister Natty, who is cursed by a demon and asleep. > At an adventurer's guild, he meets Taiga, who was given extraordinary abilities when he was reincarnated from another world! He also meets Sawyer and Mia, who were also reincarnated from another world and have cheat abilities, but something happens that shocks even them! > > An entertaining and poignant otherworldly fantasy featuring a party of a novice adventurer, Rocco, and three reincarnated characters from another world! So far so good, let's enjoy the ride till it inevitably runs out of steam. The only thing I don't like in the premise is that we have two basically identical isekai protags alongside one OI protag. It would have been better if one was classic isekai protag and another was from I dunno, revenge isekai? Slow life? Anything to really distinguish the two. Or everyone having different appraisal systems? Like isekai protag can see levels/skills/etc. - usual stuff, OI heroine can see affection levels / hidden dialog options.
