So I'm significantly ahead in the light novels and let me tell you something: He just parried an elder god to death, and he's still pretty oblivious. I haven't read the very very latest novel yet, but I'm sure he's not going to undergo any kind of major epiphany and become brilliant.

It's the core humorous concept of the series, that he's a strange person who has no sense of common sense.

Honestly, they probably should. It's.crazy all the privacy sites that seem to just hammer the pirate web manga sites.

New LN came out recently too. Eating well this summer!

Having a pair of default gateways could be an issue. On Windows (which I know, isn't the OS here), you have to be pretty careful because if you're straddling two networks, you need to pick one network to be the dominant one, that's the one whose default gateway will get packets heading onto outbound networks.

I think it's like a big truck, not a series of tubes.

In Trigun, I always thought that the disconnect between Vash pretending to be lecherous and the reality of him pretending to be passed out when girls come up to actually do something with him shows it's part of his facade and adds a lot of depth to what could otherwise be a shallow character trait.

Always seems self-evident that equipment you don't own and control isn't going to work on your behalf.

China is the West's picture of Dorian Gray. We pretend we're so good for reducing our carbon use by not manufacturing anything and switching to less immediately carbon intensive, meanwhile the rest of the world exported 182 million metric tonnes of coal to China (roughly 140 million cubic meters of the stuff) last year. That would be enough to fill 208,000 3000sqrft mcmansions from bottom to top with coal every year.

So why does China have so much green energy going in? Because exploiting the environment sometimes includes green energy. You dam every river, raze every forest to set up windmills or solar panels or to burn as "biomass", because you want to suck up every bit of resources you can and that includes stuff that happens to be considered green.

That's not all. China has also used more concrete than the rest of the human race throughout all of history in just the last few decades. Cement in particular is a highly carbon intensive thing to make (particularly using fossil fuels which almost all cement is made using), and they've built empty cities that'll some day fall into dust without having ever had people living in them.

That's why I say we need to be very careful about letting environmentalism become a box they package up and put on the shelf. It's easy to think we can consume away our problems caused by overconsumption, but it's much more complicated than that.

"Like, you can say, 'Okay, we are exploiting, you know, child labour,' right? Or, you can say: we are offering people anywhere in the world the capability to get a job, and even like an income,"

Bahahahaha

You've convinced me. Let's eliminate child labor laws.

It always seemed kinda sus, glad I started a matrix homeserver instead.

I mean, the market is centrally planned and controlled by the state, so it isn't capitalist.

You don't need to ask the state permission to raise prices under capitalism.

I should learn SDL2...
