I like Red Lion. It isn't either genre, but it is a feudal Japanese film that is filled with a surprising amount of comedy. Could be of interest to you if you can tolerate older movies. Shin Gojira and Gojira Minus One are also both good, but unfortunately don't fit in the genres you suggested either.

Ah, yes. Nintendo has definitely done evil on the level of... checks notes ...slavery.

Might want to reevaluate your list there.

Does your school have a robotics team or something along the lines of computing? That would be a good option. Also if you are still in high school and plan on going to college, you still have plenty of time to learn.

Well luckily AI researchers have achieved plenty in over 60 years. We call the ideas and innovations resulting from this research "AI."

So the entire field of AI has produced no AI. Gotcha 👌

OK what qualifies as AI then?

allowing to customize its PCB specifically for the needs of FPGA console emulation.

From what I can recall, this is not what happened. He has stated multiple times that he's designed it to work as much like a DE-10 Nano as possible. There are no significant differences between his board and the original from what I can tell.

Oof, programmers calling LLMs "AI" - that's embarrassing

...but LLMs quite literally come from the field of computer science that is referred to as "AI." What are they supposed to call it? I'm not a fan of the technology either, but seems like you're just projecting your disdain for ChatGPT.

I've been following the Mister FPGA project and just set up my new one. It's a great project. However I do not quite understand what the motivation of these consolized Misters are. It's going to take significant software development effort to make a Mister completely polished, and it is such a niche target audience I'd think it wouldn't be worth it.

How does a Kickstarter make sense for this? Feels too niche for enough people to find enough value to "invest" in this.

Japanese steakhouses originate from teppanyaki restaurants in Japan that cooked western style food. When you go to these style of restaurants, it is debatable how "Japanese" it is since it was never really a popular cuisine in Kapan despite originating there. This is reflected in the ingredients they use.

I actually prefer shows that have smaller stories to tell throughout rather than one large story, so we actually agree here. In these cases if the show loses quality at any point, then I can stop watching without leaving as much plot development unresolved. The downside is now you're either confining each story to a smaller runtime or you're chopping up a larger plotline into these smaller runtime units.

I suppose this is how I would put it: TV shows are a superior format for character development through smaller storylines. This is why Breaking Bad works so well. Sure you could say it's one large story told across multiple seasons, but the way it is told is through smaller stories that can almost stand on their own. The larger story isn't so much a story but one really long thread of character development of Walter. Movies have a disadvantage with character development due to the lower total runtime, but the singular story ends up more rich. One 2hr movie can often feel more satisfying that several hours of a TV show due to how little the viewer needs to invest both mentally and time-wise. That said, there are exceptions to these generalities I'm making, and I'm not exactly an expert when it comes to either of these mediums.

 

I spend a lot of time creating system diagrams for presentations. I always use Inkscape to draw these diagrams. However I ran into a scenario where I wanted to animate them. The animations I'm looking for are dead simple. I want to be able to fade in, fade out, and slide basic shapes. The way I worked around it this time was by using PowerPoint. However, is there an FOSS alternative I could use? I would probably need to also export the animation into a gif or some other platform agnostic format. Bonus points for something that can use the images I draw in Inkscape.

 

I'm using a Fellow Stag and a metal V60 with a fabric filter. I do a 1:16 ratio (16g of coffee and 256g of water). Generally I'll place the V60 on the Stag while it brings the water up to a boil in order to heat it up. Then I'll saturate the fabric filter with the hot water. I'll use 212F water, but after pouring the water over the grounds, my instant read thermometer will read 195F. It seems weird that despite doing everything in my power to preheat all the equipment, the water drops a lot in temperature as soon as it hits the grounds. Any tips to tackle this problem?
