Tonight's visual cuisine is Battle for Moscow Aggression part 1, a prequel to Typhoon which we finished last week. The Battle for Moscow is a 1985 Soviet war movie about the 1941 Battle of Moscow, it was "a Soviet-East German-Czechoslovak-Vietnamese co-production directed by Yuri Ozerov who also wrote the script," and "It was made in time for the 40th anniversary of the Allied victory over Nazi Germany. "

After that we will continue with the legendary anime My Life as a Teenage Robot. Jenny continues juggling a life as a superhero and one as a teenager with her best friends from next door. Each episode is actually split into two smaller episodes so we are actually getting four :bko-joy:

Mlaatr

content warnings:

Battle for Moscow:

  • Depictions of violence but no blood/gore
  • War
  • Nazis and nazi imagery
  • Gun violence
  • Death

Despite being a war movie, there does not appear to be any blood or gore. It's also on youtube without an age gate so it's most likely pretty safe.

Mlaatr:

  • Depictions of bugs
  • The protagonist prefers a different name to the one given to her by her mom in the first episode, however both are used throughout the show by different characters. Her given name is generally used in a more formal manner by authority figures and her preferred one more casually by her peers. She responds to both and after the first episode generally seems to not be bothered by it.
  • Jokes about weight
  • Explosions
  • Cartoon violence, primarily involving robots and alien monsters.
  • The protagonist regularly loses limbs but she is a robot
  • The protagonist practically dies or experiences a near death experience in one episode.

Unlike anime from Japan, there isn't really anything excessively grotesque nor is there a theme of :tony-disappointed2: moments.

For this Tuesday night the visual cuisine is more Mlaatr and The Nanny starring Fran Drescher. My Life as a Teenage Robot is a legendary anime made by Rob Renzetti about a teenaged robot superhero, her friends, and her attempts at a normal human life in the face of multiple planetary threats. Mlaatr has a prominent character voiced by Eartha Kitt and uses the art deco style, reminiscent of the '20s. Each episode is actually split into two smaller episodes so we are actually getting four :bko-joy:

The Nanny is a sitcom about Fran Fine being hired as a nanny by a Broadway play producer and subsequently brightening their lives. Goofs, gaffs, and gabagools ensue as their two worlds collide.

I actually wish we would become very much like Reddit used to be back in the day

reddit back in the day had a huge jailbait sub

Hexbear has become a cesspool

Gog, drm free, just works, and devs get more money.

On the other hand, death to valve and steam. The launcher itself is dogshit bloatware and I do not have a single recent memory of it being remotely pleasant to use. The download and verification speeds are absolutely awful compared to Gog and, in my limited experience, Epic. valve was definitely a pioneer in microtransactions with tf2 and csgo. Locking mods to their storefront is fucking disgusting, as was their attempt to monetize them. There is also negative quality control when it comes to what's allowed to be sold on steam.

If it's not on Gog then I'll just pirate it.

Thankfully I haven't encountered that in forever but I always get multi-part 5gb download thats capped to 1mb/s and takes 5 hours

[–] Grebgreb@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago (3 children)

downloading a repack made by some Russian somewhere in 15 parts from 5 different filesharing websites

Never had this problem with fitgirl but rinru users unfortunately end up using some awful rate limited site usually. It's always a pleasant surprise when it's a drive link tho

The latter option does leave you with the game in your Steam account though

This is why I use them. Someone hosted a zomboid server on here but it's set to steam only, I don't want to give any money to valve if possible and I'm definitely not buying the game a third time at full price so I just used a gift card and got it for ~$7.

Honestly if I end up in a similar situation I'll probably just do it again shrug-outta-hecks
