Cannot stress how bad shit is about to get if you want to build any kind of PC.
Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead. It’s already getting hard to build an affordable PC, and the exit of the longstanding provider of consumer memory is going to make that even more challenging www.theverge.com/news/837594/...

a sign people really want a feature and find it good is when companies make turning it off a 12 part process (firefox), require registry modifications (microsoft) or contact support to reveal the real off switch instead of their two decoy toggles (google) so they can claim people don't turn it off 📈

This shit is why I'm getting less and less work on anime and having to scramble to ask around with YouTubers for help letting me do their CCs just to pay my damn rent. There's enough anime to caption out there that I should not be fucking struggling.
After publishing this article, I've heard from many that CR seems to be using AI to produce dub CCs. Now, thanks to a slip-up CR had with episode 6 dub of The Banished Court Magician, we can say that with 100% certainty: Crunchyroll is using the AI service Ollang.com for its dub closed captions!

In case you missed it, I wrote a tl;dr for my series examining Suikoden 1's English localizations. The final word: the HD Remaster's translation is a definite improvement, but suffers from the same issues as the 1996 translation—namely, a lack of context and not enough editing passes/LQA.
My Suikoden Localization Let's Play has finally come to a complete end! This overview covers the main points of the series, like "don't take words or punctuation at face value" and "consider the larger context," then dives into reviews of both the PS1 and HD Remaster English translations.

I'm still thinking about this. It's just such a slap in the face, especially since the review of it was like "the story and characters aren't great, but the art is amazing!"

Seriously? I have more to say on a lot of levels, but I'll keep it to myself for now.
Minami tipped me off to the fact an AI manga won the grand prize in a Tonari no Young Jump competition and I’m actually still thinking about it and annoyed about it.
Just attaching this screenshot of someone QRTing it.

The idea that there was a time when being a good artist was "enough" is a fairy tale. It is Cemelot.

I will never forget the day in art school, almost 30 years ago now, when our professor decided to show us what it REALLY took to be a practicing artist. (1)
Hearing "why aren't you working for a big studio? Why aren't you directing at your age? You're so good, what do you mean you have trouble finding a job?" gets so tiresome. Thank you for saying I'm a good artist but I don't think that really is the thing that actually gets you jobs anymore 🤷

Yay! I got selected for the Dissidia Duellum closed beta test! 💖

I just hope my phone doesn't overheat like it did during the First Soldier beta test. I had to quit that one immediately. lol

It wasn't deep. It didn't have much to say. But Xiao Xiao inspired millions to try Flash animation for themselves.

A Beijing artist made this series -- and turned stick fights into a phenomenon. We're exploring why and how he did it:

They are destroying what SHE built.

#TeenVogue
Elaine Welteroth, former editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue and youngest editor of Condé Nast ever, and the 2nd African American to hold this position, changed Teen Vogue to be more politically conscious.

Traffic to TeenVogue.com: 2.7M to 9.2M visitors a year, print subscriptions jumped 535%

Welteroth was just 29 when Anna Wintour made her editor-in-chief. Months later, the magazine shut down. What did she do next?

Obviously happy that CSM was a big success, this also tells me these animators need to be paid more. I hope things go in that direction somehow.

I do feel absolutely insane about how many eulogy posts for Björn Andrésen /exclusively/ use pictures of him as an underage boy, the very image that cast a shadow over the rest of his life.

Björn Andrésen was a 70 year old man, not an ethereal boy stuck in eternal youth. He was real.
