How about none?

If I wanted to see soulless retreads of older franchises whose time and relevance has passed, then I’d watch Hollywood shit.

UY 2022, Ranma 1/2 2024, I’m looking at you.

Oh debianastro made an alt account, or an alt instance. That explains how this got past my block filter.

Subtle propaganda for diverting public school funds to segregated private schools through vouchers.

Thereby further weakening unionized teachers, and the middle class as a whole.

Fuck Linda McMahon and Betsy DeVos

Wow, really? The guy must have a silver tongue to keep conjuring that production money, because that first season was shit.

Wow, snapshot from a bygone age.

Dry cleaners around here have just about all been wiped out, because nobody wears “nice” clothing anymore.

Going back to episode 7, it just occurred to me where I heard the “Ventura, ventura, space people” chant and ring dance before:

In an episode of 80s Urusei Yatsura:

This is from the a dubbed version, but it’s the same thing in the original Japanese.

According to a reddit post, “ventora” came from a Japanese UFO society https://hatch.kookscience.com/wiki/Cosmic_Brotherhood_Association_(CBA)

No idea if the dance came from them too.

I hate my Samsung S25.

The hardware is lightning fast, but this OneUi garbage fucks up multiple apps, even Voyager that I am using to type this right now.

They especially seem to fuck over the Fossify open source apps.

The redundant Samsung apps (Phone, Messenger, Calendar, Photos, App Store, et al) are garbage clones of the vanilla Google Android apps.

I never had this many problems with my Motorola, which did use vanilla Google Apps

How many people actually own shortwave-receiving radios though?

Consumer Reports (CR) is frustratingly short on full ratings for EVs.

It’s like EV buyers aren’t CR subscribers or something.

CR is really down on reliability for most EV models, assigning most of them straight-in-the-middle average for predicted reliability. And quite often lower.

The one exception seems to be the 2025 BMW i4, which earns the best ratings for both predicted reliability and owner satisfaction.

Suspiciously so.

Sometimes when CR’s data patterns appear like that, it’s a mirage due to some other factor. Particularly when the manufacturer’s other models don’t join them.

For example, the 2025 BMW i5 has a more typical bang average predicted reliability rating.

In terms of incomplete ratings, they seem to like the 2025 Toyota Mirai, and 2026 Lexus ES, but those are likely to come back down to average as the results come in.

p.s. CR is in the US, and for US consumers, so they don’t get to rate Chinese EVs like BYD, etc.

Well if WB pays Zaslav more, he’ll do a better job, so that needs to happen at the next board meeting.

Sopuli may be run by Finns, but according to https://fedidb.com/software/lemmy the servers(?) are in Falkenstein, Germany

Even Henry Ford understood this, and paid his automobile factory workers well so they could also be his customers.

“The Dragon Keepers, their reputations and organization shattered, and identities revealed, must now continue their fight for Justice against the monsters as part of the underground…” Sounds like the tone just moved into grim 'n gritty…

Red needs to learn some impulse control…

And how exactly did Hwalipon escape from a room full of Rangers?
