@micahflee Are you the author of the Tor Browser flatpak?

Some websites have a Cloudflare DDoS protection which keeps on refreshing forever with Tor Browser, with no way to get past it. Is it due to some browser setting that can be changed, or is it just due to the shared IP seen by the Cloudflare web frontends?

I'm sure it's not caused by the launcher, but I thought you might know how to solve this, or point me at someone who would know.

Oh, and thank you for maintaining this!

In this video, you will learn how to ask someone out... as well as the correct intonation and facial expression to turn them down 😂

@srevinsaju I watched it, and there are many similarities, but it's early to say.

The school-prison in Tengoku Daimakyou seems to be genuinely protecting the students from the dangers of the outside world filled with mutant monsters and outlaws in search of food and electricity. Though they might turn out to be human clones or something like that...

What do you think?

Another oddity is that boys and girls wear identical uniforms which look like serafuku (sailor suits) with shorts instead of skirts.

Perhaps we should deduce that the post-apocalyptic Japanese society has become less genderized, while still retaining European-style naval uniforms?

#anime #japan

I noticed that multiple female characters in this #anime refer to themselves as 僕 (boku), which is typically a masculine pronoun in #Japanese. This nuisance is lost in the English subs.

I wonder if there's a reason?

Just finished watching the first episode of Tengoku Daimakyou (Heavenly Delusion).

It's a post-apocalyptic sci-fi #anime, and the story so far seems promising 👍

@noemu Can't wait!

@flexion 30kg? Woah, they don't make them like that any more! 😂

@tagomago Ok, it's not a total ban on machine learning and operating AI chatbots... only the most advanced currently available to the public...

Looks like the excuse is privacy, which will be easier to address than "AI is a monstrosity" or "everything it says must be accurate and verified".

Ah, it's finally out!

@flexion Do the old SGI fans shake the chassis so much that it needs to be decoupled from the desk with sponges? 😂

Italian privacy regulator bans ChatGPT

Top comment: "With this ban all Italy has accomplished here is that their economy and productivity will fall behind other countries that don't ban it. I'm sure it's well intentioned but short sighted."

With which I concur 😞

@greypilgrim @srevinsaju Google launched 2 separate services specifically for music streaming, and they both flopped because people kept going to YouTube instead 😄

@noemu @Maryam It's not a "garage", it's a "highly theatrical simulation of a garage". And it's not just "rusty", it's "organized detritus".

See? It's art.

@Maryam It's a... "walk-in assemblage" 🙄
