Story about Finning of Sharpedo form Pokemon Leaks

In places where there are rules and order, and these things are valued, only important people are allowed to capture Sharpedo.

Even when captured, Sharpedo are treated with care, brought back to land, their fins cut and sold at a high price, and every part of the fish is eaten.

Even the bones are treated carefully, respectfully, and with love.

In such places, the lives of many Sharpedo are not lost unnecessarily, and valuable things are treated as valuable.

In the current capitalist world, which lacks rules and order, people on massive ships capture more Sharpedo than needed, cutting off their fins and throwing them back into the sea while still alive.

This way, they procure them in large quantities and sell them cheaply.

This is meritocracy.

What's wrong with the strong killing the weak?

The former represents many places and values in the Pokémon world.

This time, however, Team Galactic holds the latter worldview.

In other words, they represent the excessive and extreme aspects of the real world.

My ISP doesn't provide IPv6. What's their excuse? Not enough addresses to go around?
  • Adding IPv6 would cost them money. Probably a relatively small amount of money, but still money. They get nothing from that investment. As long as they have IPv4 addresses to assign to their customers, there's basically no demand for IPv6 addresses. NAT and UPnP work fine for just about everyone. I think the only way we see serious IPv6 adoption in North America and Europe is government mandates.

  • Okay, I feel like Japan has an unfair advantage here
  • Light Yagami is the protagonist of Death Note. He discovered a notebook that lets him kill anyone by writing their name in the book (technically he needs to mentally picture their face too).

  • Do you play non-steam games?
  • I emulate a lot of old games on my Steam Deck. It's not too hard, but requires some work. I will do the work for non-Steam stores if/when there is something I want to play from one. However, I suspect not releasing your games on Steam will really limit your reach. My guess is that most people won't go through the effort to get itch.io games work on thier Deck.

  • Faster linking times on Linux using `rust-lld`

    rustc will use rust-lld by default on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu on nightly to significantly reduce linking times.

    Persona 3 Reload Expansion Pass Adds Episode Aegis: The Answer FES Content
  • Expecting, but glad to see it is confirmed!

    I wonder if it will be more bearable than the PS2 version of The Answer. In that version, everything had abilities that let them have high dodge chances against all of their weaknesses. So every battle was just: miss, miss, miss

  • Excerpt from America Day by Day by Simone de Beauvoir

    “What is most striking to me, and most discouraging, is that [Americans] are so apathetic while being neither blind nor unconscious. They know and deplore the oppression [and] the terrible poverty… They witness the rise, more ominous every day, of racism and reactionary attitudes—the birth of a kind of fascism. They know that their country is responsible for the world’s future. But they themselves don’t feel responsible for anything, because they don’t think they can do anything in this world… In America, the individual is nothing. He is made into an abstract object of worship; by persuading him of his individual value, one stifles the awakening of a collective spirit in him. But reduced to himself in this way, he is robbed of any concrete power. Without collective hope or personal audacity, what can the individual do? Submit or, if by some rare chance this submission is too odious, leave the country.”
