• I think the statement after that just pertains to the art and visuals of the browser. As a musician who doesn’t have art/design skills, I can understand the pain of building something but not having the skills to make it look good visually (i.e. album cover art and promotional materials).

  EDIT: Nevermind, I misread your comment. Yes, they could’ve just said “I code everything myself”.

  EDIT 2: For those replying there’s still Mozilla code in there, yes I’m aware. I was implying the code specific to Waterfox.

• The only useful things I miss with Siri is starting timers when cooking, running quick match and conversions, and texting my wife that I’m on my way home when I forget to do it before starting to drive. All of those I can do without it, but I can’t deny was useful hands-free.

• I think with OP’s analogy, a nuclear weapon is no longer a tool, because the actual tool (nuclear technology) was crafted into something (weapon) that does a specific thing (destroy). But I guess OP should’ve used LLM and machine learning instead of AI.

• It had a kind of opposite effect for me. Sure it was still trying to go the same break neck speed the entire series is going, but this episode finally gave me time to breathe lol. I was also able to appreciate the visuals more because of the slower scenes.

• The two counter arguments to this are:

  1. You are giving more personal data to google to prove you live at that address.

  2. A blurred house on street view makes you stand out and can make burglars think you are some rich guy with valuable stuff in their house.

• This show is wild lmao. Not in a crazy off-the-rails kind of way, I’m used to shows like that. It’s the whiplash of how beautifully animated and serious it looks, then it goes and does this. At this point I don’t even care about the overarching story anymore, I just want to see more of the shenanigans.

• I’ve had this happen with Re:Zero, Demon Slayer, and Mushoku Tensei. At some point I become so aware of the particular plot device they’re using over and over again that I start seeing it coming from a mile away.

  So what’s the recipe/pattern you noticed?

  Higurashi When They Cry is probably the best example I can think of.

  That anime is absolutely full of repetition and recurring patterns. You start recognising things. You start noticing that certain situations, characters and events keep coming back around.

  So what’s the recipe/pattern you noticed?

  You gave examples but never explained what was the pattern you saw on those examples.
