I think this is going to be my main.

  • Looking forward to all 3 NGL. But the controller is what I'm most interested in.

  • Our first look at the Steam Machine, Valve’s ambitious new game console

    Jump

  • Even me with a big tower is interested in the Steam Machine. My rig isn't powerful to say the least, but cramming things inside the size of the Steam Machine, from my research, can get expensive fast.

    IMO $500 is the highest it should go to still sell well. This is based on a few videos of people building SFF PC with older parts that can do 4K30

    Jump

  • I've long had this problem of tracking the multiple manga (and anime) that I've been interested in since the 2010s. Back then there was this one reader site called onemanga and I had all my eggs on that. as usual it had to go down somehow (in their case, money) and that scared me into using MyAnimeList (MAL) and mangaupdates (MU) to track everything. On top of that now I add kitsu.io and anilist now.

    I think if you're going to move manually one by one from kotatsu and mihon, might as well add a couple extra steps to those sites to help track as well. I'll admit though in terms of esoteric items, kitsu is the least, followed by anilist, MAL then MU as the highest chance to include weird stuff. I have to redo my MU list since I somehow got my old account deleted and who knows what weird manga I've tracked that got lost.

  • Eh, I'd say this is different than say scanlators complaining they're not getting donations, or even sillier, people not paying them when the pay gate their scans and translations. Or scamlators beefing with each other because they accuse of stealing each other or some shit.

    It is pointless drama that put a target on the devs though but they'll pull through

  • Mihon, an aggregated manga reading app, issues a troubling warning they might shut down due to imitators that uses old Tachiyomi name

    Jump

  • Yeah I jumped the gun on this one tbh. The "better" news is that kotatsu has taken down their repos. It should still work as long as the extensions that get the manga are still updated and working

    And the manga sites themselves still being up that is.

  • The real mihon discord mods have been really diligent to stop any questions asking for source and where to get pirated mamgas. They even dont allow to say official sources too just in case.

    But regardless kakao etc wouldn't care about that and I dont think hobby devs are going to challenge a C&D from a group of companies in court.

    Jump

  • This is true. Some still use the last tachiyomi release til today so as long as extensions get updated it should be fine really.

    And one of mihon devs did say on reddit they have backups of the source code. It'll probably will pop up again under another name

  • Mihon, an aggregated manga reading app, issues a troubling warning they might shut down due to imitators that uses old Tachiyomi name

    Jump

  • Read on reddit that one of the mihon devs do keep backup of the source code so it probably will be revived in another name if they get taken down.

    Fingers crossed nothing happens

  • Mihon, an aggregated manga reading app, issues a troubling warning they might shut down due to imitators that uses old Tachiyomi name

    Jump

  • Kotatsu bundled in the extensions that scrapes manga sites like tachiyomi used to so that's the biggest sin that they're targeted by kakao etc.

    Give mihon a try.

    This has instructions where and how to get the extensions.

    Although kotatsu will work for a bit I think it's best you start looking to migrate. But AFAIK there's no easy way to migrate unless you use other sites to track your reading progress and read lists.

  • Mihon, an aggregated manga reading app, issues a troubling warning they might shut down due to imitators that uses old Tachiyomi name

    Jump

  • Yeah. I considered Kotatsu before when Tachiyomi shut down, but stuck with Mihon as it's a direct successor. Although I use one of the forks though because... panda time.

    Never really did tried Kotatsu.

  • After submitting myself to torture by back reading a bit of their discord's general chat from the point of the two announcements, it's a crashout and some pirates' beef with each other.

    So now I wished I reported on Kotatsu's shutdown only, not this annoying drama.

  • Better back up your list somehow in case they go down.

    But also just my luck as I submitted this post, Antsy updated on their discord lol.

    Here's the post:

    :::

    Hello @everyone again,

    Sorry for acting childish on the whole situation. 1.5 years of frustration bursted out with Kotatsu dying and iiTachiyomi pushing the "Mihon Community" thing. After a good night of sleep and staff being angry with me (love them) I've decided to end this whole thing again. I've 4 reasonable demands for iiTachiyomi. I won't escalate it even if they disagree. But I hope the community will hold them accountable if they do.

  • Here's the article. I didn't bother to get any of the images though, but there's only that crying one. Nor did I bother to get links that the article referred to

    Tilly Norwood exists to probe what audiences will tolerate and to remind Hollywood, already anxious and penny-pinching, that the line between performance and product has never been thinner.

    Hollywood lurched into a fresh wave of existential panic this week after Deadline, notating an otherwise dry industry panel on Saturday, September 27, seized on a stray remark. It came from Eline Van der Velden, the founder of a U.K.-based AI studio called Particle6, who participated in a panel about AI in the entertainment industry at the Zurich Summit, a sidebar to the Zurich International Film Festival. She was there in part to promote the face of her new “AI talent studio,” Tilly Norwood, who debuted in a fully AI-generated short released by Particle6 in July. The synthetic performer looks indistinguishable from the endless Instagram influencers flooding feeds: glossy hair, poreless skin, blinding teeth, eyes fixed in coy detachment upon an otherwise generic face. While Tilly can barely hold a scene, Van der Velden, apparently an actor-comedian turned producer, has been pitching her for stardom. “We want Tilly to be the next Scarlett Johansson or Natalie Portman,” she told obscure press in July in an interview to promote the short, a comedy sketch titled “AI Commissioner.”

    During the Zurich panel last weekend, Van der Velden took the hype up a notch by claiming that there was industry interest in Tilly and that Particle6 had plans to announce “which agency is going to be representing her in the next few months.”

  • I recently watched that Superman movie and liked it. I couldn't figure out exactly why, but I think it is because he's helping others.

    I was a bit hesitant prior because of MCU fatigue, but I'm glad I watched it. MCU ended for me at whenever Thanos was truly defeated. I can't even remember the movie.
