I am not familiar with the Japanese constitution. Aren't these sort of documents usually written in such a way that they have certain amount vagueness to them so that they can be applied to situations that weren't envisioned or possible (like psychic soldiers for instance. . .) when the document...

@no168_92 Gal☆Cleaning! was also published online and it still got axed. It seems like author did not take it well. haha. It can happen though.

@StevenK5613 You just described like a whole buncha scanlators. haha. I find it kinda amusing how the whole administration bent over backwards with stuff like group delays, yet they couldn't manage to have a conversation about this. This is basically all of scanlation. I discussed at length...

@comeonnow0 Wait, I'm confused. The oneshot was called "My Sister's Funeral". I don't see what the TL could have spoiled that isn't in the title, but idk.

Wait, so they can come up with all these clever plans and make good predictions about how the other players will react, but no one figured out you could stop the bullets and their effects with a bit of wood until now?

@masmutant Yep. It's been a while since I read all the stuff, but I feel like there were multiple points where the "villain" could have been someone other than Kisaki, but in the end it was just Kisaki (even though I feel like he originally started out as "red-herring"). Wasn't Kisaki...

@Doritos420 Yes, they are. It doesn't even make sense. What worse is the people defending the scanlator for dropping the series. The scanlator is "punishing" the readers for something they have no control over, and had nothing to do with (I didn't do anything to make someone "snipe" the...

This makes me wanna re-read Ichi the Killer.

So far I think this may be the best harem (comedy) OF ALL TIME. It's a great deconstruction. It's got just the right amount self-awareness without being smug and obnoxious. The best non-comedy harem is obviously Grisaia. I guess the monogatari series is probably in there somewhere too.

@SleepyAbra Oh yeah. I forgot about Monthly Girl's Nozaki-kun. I did read the scanlation, and then I bought the first volume of the official translation. I don't remember it being "bad". I haven't compared the two. I'm guess some of it might be due to a difference in intended audience...

@SleepyAbra Don't worry about it. It doesn't have to make sense. People want manga, and don't want to pay for it. Therefore, they are directing their anger at the publisher while pretending that they have some kind of noble ideology in mind. Although sometimes, publishers do a kind of "meh"...

@princeofcups Well, if that is how you feel I suggest you never buy anything ever. This is how capitalism works. Do the engineers/programmers that did all the work designing your iPhone (or whatever) get a cut of every phone sale? No, they don't. I guess you shouldn't buy food either, because...

@Rassah Okay, that does make it unlikely, but screw up can occur and have: https://cointelegraph.com/news/one_user_accidentally_sends_520_000_in_btc_to_wrong_wallet https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/j55ywg/people-are-losing-bitcoin-cash-by-accidentally-sending-it-to-bitcoin-addresses...

@Rassah I don't ever transfer large sums of money internationally, presumably that is what attracts the attention of LEA blocking transfers. I'm pretty sure people have been able to transfer money internationally before crypto existed and continue to do so all without ever using crypto at all...

@gormadoc 1) Because crypto currency is stupid. 2) I am not only one with issues. Yes, I did go off on a tangent about crypto but other people feel that this whole accepting donations via crypto is a PITA and users who are unfamiliar with crypto are going to have a bad time. 3) If...

@gormadoc Would that not also be the case for Mangadex—with the exception being that people voluntarily upload their stuff? >they are based in China and just ignore DMCAs. Are there not lots of countries beyond the reach of DMCAs, and other forms of copyright suit? > Now that Japan has...

Correct me if I am wrong, but don't you have to "win" (as in be the first to brute force whatever dumb thing it is they use to validate the chain) in order to claim the block rewards (12—soon to be 6—BTC plus whatever the TX fees are)? >and history has shown pirate websites like MD don't...

@celsty I feel like I am too stupid to understand your explanation (sorry). Anyways Dai, or MakerDao, apparently just just experienced a huge case of SFYL. I don't understand the intricacies of how the system functions, but apparently it broke recently. I don't understand why you would want to...

@ thedestroyership I like your idea.

@celesty I know what stablecoins are. "this way each crypto dollar can be redeemed back to the deposited asset" Except you can't. I can't find any recent information about redeeming tether at all. The latest news is from 2018 and apparently tether allows deposits and redemption so long as...
