I am a Swedish computery person, primarily web dev. | FFXIV: Augustus Laurant @ Phoenix | he/him
After starting FFXI and having a fairly good time (better than expected), my mind has started drifting towards "you know... maybe I should give OSRS a fair shot too..." and I'm not sure if that's a good idea

I know it's foolish to complain about "stakes" in a story like Eminence in Shadow, but I am a clown, after all

If I was better at Japanese, I would create a scanlation group called Crashing Out Scans that picks up titles purely based on how much the only scanlations available make me crash out with how poor they are.

Important update: I have received word from insiders that Crunchyroll executives have deemed the user backlash to be small enough that their subtitle enshittification & OOONA plans will NOT be cancelled, only delayed.
I have added an update to the article. There's a summary at the top now too.

Crunchyroll is destroying its subtitles for no good reason

A ton of research and effort went into this one. This is the article to read to get to the bottom of Crunchyroll's subtitle changes!
Replies here will show up as comments (eventually)

With the Fall 2025 anime season, Crunchyroll demonstrates zero respect for anime as a medium as the presentation quality of its subtitles reach an all-time low.

How long is it gonna take for the games industry to realize that it's not a good look for them if they keep justifying GenAI stuff as "accidental inclusion" of "placeholders"?

The way Dems treat Mamdani versus Platner... hm
"Not one senator said Platner’s tattoo or other controversies were disqualifying, and several acknowledged he’s bringing excitement to a party that has been struggling in the political wilderness since President Donald Trump took back power in January."

Senate Democrats tread lightly on Maine primary as new poll shows Graham Platner leading Janet Mills
Despite recent controversies, Platner has a huge lead in a recent poll and is drawing big crowds, while the two-term governor Mills is counting on her experience and achievements.

I'm gonna have to be real, when people were saying that the combat is bad in Silent Hill f, I was expecting something way worse. I wouldn't call it the best thing ever made, but from the way some people are talking about it, you'd expect that it's an unplayable mess, which I don't understand at all.

Just saw this great post again and it reminded me of my old beef against "spoilers don't matter, a good film isn't spoilable": The timing with which information is revealed is important in every movie! It's as much a part of the art as dialogue or lighting,it matters at least as much as aspect ratio

Every time I see something about ODD TAXI, I'm reminded of the power of expectations and how having the wrong expectations about something can completely ruin it for you.
