Almost no sequence of events or scenes in this episode made a even modicum of sense from any perspective

You warned us, and yet I was still not ready for how bad it was

Ignoring for a moment that I personally enjoy problem solving and writing code so an LLM is useless to me on its face, why on earth would I want to learn the entirely unrelated skill of describing what I want an LLM to give me such that it produces good results, when I could learn the language

It's only a "great option" for a studio like that in that it's cheaper than maintaining a proper in house engine.

Having to heavily modify the engine and recompile it all the time is something I would consider "fighting" with the engine I'll be fully honest. For some projects that might be worth it, but if it's up to me I'd rather use something more flexible like unity, or make something from the ground up

As someone who has worked with ue5 for a bit now, "pretty great" is not a way I would describe it. It does it's job, but for any project that isn't the specific kind of game it was built to make, you're going to fight it every step of the way

I find it really interesting though because they keep showing up in the YouTube comment sections for every video and short I watch about the game

It's the main thing that stops me from reading more Chinese and Korean comics, because almost all of them are in the long strip format, and I actively dislike the experience of reading comics that way
A few have been good enough to overcome that, but not many lol

Easily my favorite anime of the season for sure

I feel the need to report that this post showed up directly above someone doing exactly that for me, and I got an extra strong nose puff chuckle out of that

Also shout out to Char scurrying around like a little rat-man this episode. I love this weird scheming bastard <3

I think a romance ending(even yuri, though i am a biased woman so I would mind that less) would really weaken a lot of what this show has been trying to say, and it's my biggest worry about where it's going.

The end of this episode sets them up perfectly for a confrontation charmuro-style, and I can only hope that Shuji's return doesn't throw things off too hard. I do think it's going to work out given he's all glow-y in the next episode preview, but still, please don't end with romance gquuuuuux

I do really like how Machu and Nyaan are being framed here though, with Nyaan being essentially groomed by Zeon and Kycilia, while Machu is bonding with Challia and being swayed by his more radical ideas and alternate perspective on what freedom even means.

I'm still working through stuff but I think I have some more concrete thoughts after this week. The big thing is I still maintain that centering the conflict between Nyaan and Machu on Shuji is a huge mistake. I get what they're going for, but it just doesn't sit right with me.

the deviation in quality between little ceasers and your local family owned gastropub with an authentic margherita pie and the greasy spoon slice shop is like. 1.5/10

The whole episode I just kept thinking "what are we even doing here?" as my eyes glazed over
the biggest thing that stuck out was another instance of "how did literally nobody think to check this?" with the whole heart implant thing

On the one hand I really would like a new trailer and more info, but on the other hand it would be incredibly funny to get silkposted by an actual industry event

Maybe once I'm done with college and have a job so I'm not just living off savings and educational assistance money I can splurge, but even then if it's not on sale I don't know if I could do it

It's far too expensive when I could spend that money on clothes and going out with friends and having milkshakes from the(also expensive) local drive in with my mom

Also please never make me look at an ai generated codebase the size of botw I would immediately jump off a bridge

Can I make fun of myself for using arch yet or do I have to wait until I bring it up to someone unprompted?

Of the 300ish currently being used, I know some of that is windows, a good chunk is apps and their respective data, and about 30GB is the virtual drive I was using in virtual box that I haven't decided what to do with yet
