  • This still works... though kbin still doesn't render the code block correctly it seems.

    ?p=1

    basically tells the site to load page 1 of whatever sort is selected. You can also do p=2 for page 2, etc.

  • I figured Gen Z is the lemon in this case.

  • There it is. Was wondering if there was any relation, to the point where I had half a mind to look it up myself. Thanks for saving me the trouble.

    It's nepotism and cronyism all the way down.

  • It's easier to bamboozle someone than to convince them they've been bamboozled.

  • I think you just described "business" in general.

  • Me, upon seeing the response: Hahahaha! Man that was fast. Dude always has the perfect reply ready.

    5 minutes later: tries to squint through Klingon makeup 🤔

    One trip to IMDB and Memory Alpha later: ...holy shit.

    The next day: I should post a reply.

    Now: We're in now now.

  • The other cart:

    bump

    PUT IT BACK!

    thump

    STOP IT

    jam

    I AM WARNING YOU MISTER!

    rattles crooked wheel

  • Goals require long term work, commitment, and developing new habits.

    This is why I'm doomed.

  • For the 404s, try adding ?p=1 to the end of the URL. This lets me use all and subscribed (mostly) as normal.

    I think we are all SoL on the error pages though.

  • things have been awfully quiet which makes me think something with federation has stopped working with Lemmy again

    Things haven't been in sync for a day or two at least. Looking at a post from both kbin and lemmy (specifically startrek.website), there are times when not all of the posts are there, or there are comments missing, or the votes are just stuck. And this morning all/hot was almost completely static for hours.

  • /all does the same for me

  • Next headline: "The economy is doing super duper awesomesauce but Americans keep saying shit's fucked: Economists baffled"

  • One would think a legal name change would have been in their top 5 things-to-do-after-the-war list.

    Spoiler: he did.

  • I’d also spend a month researching the exact perfect router

    Every time I do this I come away disgusted with how trash most technology is and just how awful manufacturers are willing to make the experience just to get those precious data harvesting bucks. See also: this thread. Womp womp.

  • Well that sucks. I am guilty of really only following Risa, mostly due to big gaps in my watch history and wanting to avoid spoilers for the newer shows. I'm not surprised though... Reddit had (and still has) tremendous amounts of inertia.

  • And now that you know, feel free to join us in the rabbit hole!

  • Successfully pulling off a lift-and-move like that was huge. I wish more niche/fandoms had followed suit instead of staying put.

  • You know what worked for me? Getting passably good at singing the Bowie parts. It's like the parts that want to get stuck are in opposition with the Bowie parts and there's some mental tussling then suddenly the song is over and you're free.

    It also works well at confusing the shit out of people at parties who all want to sing along yet seemingly never got the memo that the song is a duet.

    Gundam Build Metaverse Ep 1

    Just finished watching the first episode. It's basically a commercial for the sketchy real-life metaverse project, but that was kind of assumed going in. (Build Fighters wasn't hurt in the least by being a Gunpla commercial.) The animation looks great, as do the new characters. The Divers team seems aged down(?!?) from their initial appearance, which is weird because of how young they were to begin with. The suits are pretty standard for Build, doubly so since a lot of them are based off of legacy Build designs. Looking forward to a better look at the antagonist suit from the post credits scene.

    In all, it's about what I've come to expect from Build. Let's see where it goes. If anyone has any thoughts or impressions, I'd love to hear them.

    Also: AloHaro is life. That is all.

    HGCE Destroy Gundam. Holy crap.

    I was NOT expecting that. It's enormous. And gives me hope for a future standard Wodom (from Turn A, not the mini one from Build Divers). Link is to BBTS because that's where I caught the news. I don't see anything on Gundam.Info yet.

    Edit: apparently this was announced last week and I'm blind

    P-Bandai US 2023/10/04 - Bunch of stuff going live tonight

    Not sure if any of it is new. Would love to get that MG Marasai but I know it's just going to sit in the backlog. Same with that awesomely audacious Age Magnum.

    P-Bandai US - HG Psycho Doga (actually in stock, and not a preorder)

    It's not often that PB actually has something listed that's in stock. Scrolling through, looks like there's both HG Qubeleys along with the Strike Dagger and option parts set if you want something to make the shipping charge (flat $10) sting less.

    Even if you're not a fan of his review style (save some superlatives for the rest of us dude), the intro is worth watching. I was not expecting that.

    P-Bandai US 2023/09/28 - MG 1/100 Tallgeese Fluegel

    What the hell happened to "put stuff up in batches once or twice a month"? This one kit at a time nonsense is irritating.

    P-Bandai US 2023/09/21 - HG Hobby Hizack, HG Zaku II High Mobility Surface Type, MG Kampfer Schwer

    Live now, don't recall seeing these earlier so I'm not sure when they went up.

    That Hizack better be mostly new. $32 is steep for a 20+ year old HG.

    e: I tried posting this last night but it doesn't look like it federated properly. The only place it's showing up is in my profile. Editing to see if that helps.

    P-Bandai US restock: HG 1/144 RX-78-2 GUNDAM

    I used to call this the McDonald's Grandpa... then they went ahead and made an official McDonald's/Big Mac Grandpa.

    I've seen this pop up several times over the past few years. I don't get the appeal but apparently there's demand still for reprints. Also odd that it's one kit going up on a Saturday.

    Valid September 15-30... on $120+ orders... and the whole order has to have the same ship month. Unless there's a Gundam Expo coming up, I don't see any reason to get excited. $10 is $10, but that's a lot of asterisks.

    As always, 'ware spoilers.

    I normally don't bother with corporate gaming content (preferring independent creators), but once I found out that this series of videos was hosted by BotW legend RinHara5aki I gave it a shot. And I'm glad I did. I almost always find out something new.
