Acchi Kocchi. just two oblivious kids crushing on each other in that “it’s obvious to everyone except them” sort of way. format wise it’s skit based, almost like if Lucky Star had been written to be more wholesome and less crude.

btw, i’d also appreciate recs from any other Acchi Kocchi enjoyers in the thread 😉

Orion won’t make its way into the hands of consumers

not for you though (unless you’re a Meta employee).

but yeah good hardware is good hardware and if i could just use it as a display for any other device i have i would totally use it around the home: following a recipe without having to shuffle my phone and the ingredients; running a lengthy command over ssh and doing chores while i wait, without having to check my phone every couple of minutes to see when it’s done…

those things all rely on the software though. will they open it up as a dumb wireless display/terminal, or not? if they don’t, it’s kinda dead to me no matter how great the hardware is…

lick behind the knee… goddammit, i need to know

nixpkgs already has infrastructure to compile to wasi the same way you compile to other platforms like arm, darwin (macOS), musl, etc.

nix-build -A pkgsCross.wasi32.$pkg

i haven’t found any $pkg there that actually builds though. coreutils depends on posix stuff, busybox tries to include a non-existent netdb.h file. even hello barfs inside i think some autotools-generated wrapper around fcntl.

i don’t understand enough about wasm to know if it really is reasonable to think of it as a “system” the same was x86_64-linux or aarch64-multiplatform is a “system”, but if so i’d love the equivalent of this blog post showing how to use (or fix) the wasi32 system!

so the title’s left unresolved, and next episode there could either be an unnecessary killing, or a killing to prevent an unnecessary killing – with the obvious question in the latter case of “was that a necessary killing?”

until recently the series has been war between humans and demons, and they go out of their way to convince the viewer that the villains (demons) really are inhuman: creatures incapable of feeling empathy toward anyone and therefore not worth your own empathy. and the heroes (at least in the ideal) are those who do exactly what’s necessary, but no more, when it comes to violence. i don’t know that the story can veer too far from that ideal framing of heroism without losing its charm, but they may be setting up to challenge that framing of villainy.

also, seems it’s becoming a pattern that Fern’s opponents are caught off-guard by her speed & stamina. when she fought the demon in episode 10, that was explained as her suppressing her mana, and the demon being careless/overconfident against such a technique. but here in ep 20 everyone is familiar with mana suppression: that Fern’s overwhelming experienced mages with just raw speed/stamina has me suspicious.

worth noting that Pinephone does boot against unpatched mainline (i.e. kernel.org) kernel. it’ll boot to a DE with graphics and touch working, but you lose WiFi/bluetooth, inherit some quirks with the backlight, proximity sensor, etc. no idea about the modem or audio.

Dad is taking this way too gracefully. if it were me i’d just be lying on the floor unresponsive, rethinking every interaction involving Kaori from the past two years.

OTOH, 5 pages of Dad lying in silence would make for a boring comic.

i use the web client through Tangram, which is just a web browser (webkitgtk) with UX tailored to hosting web apps.
