Waiting 20 minutes so that your virtual Windows 95 machine can install a game at an era realistic time, when all that is really happening is that files already on my hard drive are moving to somewhere else on it, is something that causes me to question what I'm doing with my life.

Does this place maybe... Have a system where they kick noisy people out!?

Came back home late at night and thought that someone dumped a bunch of garbage on my driveway since as I was pulling up I could see four lumps. As I got closer it became apparent that these were rabbits and they were strangely hesitant to get out of the way of my car (I only slowly pulled up to not hit any.) Eventually they did get out of the way, but even when they bounded off they didn't just get out of the drive way immediately but rather bounced around in a circle for a few seconds first.
I feel like I've crossed the rabbit mafia or had the curse of El-ahrairah placed upon me or something.

Today I learned that one possible output for "neko" in the microsoft JP IME is =^_^=. This is apparently due to 2chan users adding it to their personal IME and widely distributing the files.
You can also use "ai" to get ぁぃ(。・ω・。)ノ and other variations, "ase" to get (-_-;) among others, warau for ((´∀`))ケラケラ etc.
I feel like I've just broken a secret code or something.

You can also use it to get emojis, which is where I found this out from (though emojis are banned on SPUF for some reason.) Sometimes you get characters that aren't technically emojis like ☆ from "hoshi", ♪ from "ongaku," or ♀ from "mesu."
But man when looking into this I have found a bunch of weird stuff. Here's some websites archiving and giving tips for kaomoji use:
https://kaomojinavi.net/index.htm
http://www.nekoguchi.com/2007/10/24/japanese_emoticons/comment-page-2/ (unfortunately the kaomoji dictionary links are broken)
https://nihonshock.com/2010/04/12-japanese-ime-tips/
I also discovered that the emoji feature in Windows 10+ also has a kaomoji page. (Access by WIN + ;) Though I think the IME option is better once you know what words correspond to which kaomoji.

a small addition: I was pleasantly surprised to see that typing "nya" has one of the predictions "nyanpasu." it's not too surprising if it really was copied from 2ch users but still fun
That last link blew my mind with the "type english sentence by starting with a capital letter" though, that's a genius feature

I really thought "You're gonna go far kid" was just an MLP fandom song when I first heard the sped up version.

I was trolling around Facebook marketplace and it seems I found a table from the exact same maker of this one 40-year old wicker table I own. It's pretty crazy, the wicker construction looks identical.

In "The Marriage of Mrs. Fox" (Die Hochzeit der Frau Füchsin) Mrs. Fox's husband has nine tails and is quite proud of this fact. You can see this in this Brothers Grimm cartoon from way back:
I guess this is technically an anime even though I think it was primarily made for European audiences. But the detail appears in the original fairy tale, as the very first line goes: "Es war einmal ein alter Fuchs mit neun Schwänzen" i.e. "there once was an old fox with nine tails."
Anyway, this is literally the only time I've seen references to foxes having multiple tails in a western, non-influenced by Japan work. The fact that there are nine tails specifically is stranger still, as just having multiple would be enough for the story to work.
The story is basically about worrying about getting cucked and faking his death to see what happens only for his wife to be faithful to him... until she finds another fox with nine tails and then immediately decides to marry him. The story could have had Mr. Fox get beat out with the new suitor having ten tails, but it stops at nine, like that's the max.
Anyway, I'm posting this for two reasons. One is just I thought it was an interesting tidbit. Second, I'm curious if anyone has encountered any western stories with foxes having multiple tails, discounting stuff influenced by anime. The closest thing I can think of outside of this is when Samson burns down a vineyard by tying pairs of foxes together by their tails.

Discotek just announced that they're no longer pressing new discs for Grimm's Fairy Tales, so if you want the above episode and more in a pro-physical version you'll have to buy soon.
Don't miss out like you all did for Joshiraku. (Holy shit, it's going for $160 on ebay.)
What am I saying all of you guys just pirate everything anyway.

We need a good quick term for ChatGPT and StableDifussion style algorithms other than AI.
Seeing people talk about "AI" as if no one ever used the term before two years ago feels like being gas lit. I've even seen someone say "I want to be one of the first people to make games that use AI."

It's standard going second deck but it has more teeth going first than similar decks like Numeron, Earth Machines, etc. If you end up having to go first Hu-Li (the green one) is a a good one turn towers since she can't be destroyed by battle or card effect and can't be targeted. Notably Kashtira has like zero outs for Hu-Li. Plus it has an in-archetype Snatch Steal that can be played on the opponent's turn, which is neat.
If you like looking at your opponent's board and going "Herald of NOTHING, IDIOT"* and then ramming them for 10k damage with 0 ATK monsters it'll be great. I picked it up during Kashtira meta in Master Duel and just used it to do my dailies and somehow ended up in top Diamond just playing 1-2 games a day. It's not exactly a big brain deck, but sometimes you need something simple that gets the job done.
