Add another novel to the, uh, novel: Referenced another country by name, and it wasn't just part of Asia in general or the US:

An introduction shot to a grandmaster ice fishing in what is allegedly Canada's Great Bear Lake. Usually, every grandmaster in the world lurks within China somewhere, only emerging like a cockroach once the protagonist is done stamping the presently visible ones. At least this one was hiding in a freezer half the world away.

Despite being somewhat early in the plot (and therefore, this being a trivial feat for the lowest dogs in future arcs) I think this deserves a place in the "most brutal kill in cultivationslop" rankings

Rebirth Of The Urban Immortal Cultivator Chapter 115. A monk, specialized in body hardening, says "let's see which of us is tougher" as he sprints straight at Tongshan. Tongshan proceeds to command grab him, and in one frame, perform a fatality, tearing him in half vertically by the shoulders.

The WHAT pill?

From Rebirth Of The Urban Immortal Cultivator Chapter 61: Talking about a pill called the "cuiti" pill, which due to unfortunate kerning, looks like he's saying cum pill

I swear it's hard to tell when it's real or the typesetter/tl group is inserting things for memes or to punish scrapers by giving everyone country accents

If you see this we IMPLORE you to post a picture from whatever device you are using without explanation.

Of course, it's loss in the form of 4chan posts of edited blade runner screenshots

Kung fu master, actually. I'm trying to cultivate the Pai Mei.

Pai Mei from Kill Bill. His eyebrows are insanely bushy like a giant moustache, not to be confused with his actual fu manchu moustache and beard which are super long.

I misremembered and thought he was the guy with super long eyebrows, but good enough for the bit

New @vivaldi.com mobile update gave me a real scare, hid my tabs from me and made me think they were all gone. Was actually just the navigation bar going missing and only coming back if the tab bar was visible. Toggle it off and on again and it comes back.

From Vivaldi Mobile, the Appearance and Theme settings menu. "Show navigation bar" is the naughty little setting I wanted - despite already being set to "on", the bar was not visible unless I enabled the tab bar as well. (Set elsewhere)

Turn it off and on again. Same as it ever was!

bambamramfan.github.io/ai-compass/ Had to skip one question because there was no option for hate. I know the machine. I do not fear it, because that implies I think it's good at something on purpose. I hold only contempt for it.

My result: Conscientious Objector.

patron saint: Holly Herndon
It doesn't work well, it's doing real harm, and you've opted out on principle. You're not a technophobe — you just think this specific technology is overhyped and corrosive, and you're tired of being told you just don't understand it. You understand it fine. That's the problem.

The question I skipped, how I feel about AI. The only options are "bored", "uneasy", "curious", "excited", and "scared".

An argument could be made for "excited" in the sense that hatred is not the polar opposite of love, but rather indifference is. But I know that would score positively.

Crabmeat@crabme· Jun 20

Very novel. I wonder if I should get this as my next card skin for shits and giggles...

That's just how they do it in high society

JapaneseGuyScreamingMeme.divx I was hype for the #Warframe update in general, but these QoL changes are giving me [Iron Skin]

From the changelog, the entry about camera position setting. We can finally move the camera slightly to the side or further back so we can actually see where we're aiming on the more hench warframes, or if we're using wide shoulder attachments. (Which always, without fail, only barely eclipse the reticle)

From the changelog, about being able to drag-to-swap color channels. No more remembering exactly which color I had from which palette and manually setting them!

From the changelog: we can now mute the launcher. I have long awaited this because, while some of the tracks have been bangers (Hi Koumei update) they're at maximum volume which is relatively loud on my system

I got back into Hitman properly, thouroughly running through levels to explore them and complete challenges. Sniper suit only on Colorado is nuts, I'm not even sure exactly how I did it, usually after three kills, you're surrounded.

Six minutes into the mission. I'm suit only at the top of the water tower, with 3/4 kills done. You can see 10 millitiamen all aiming *directly* at the tower. If I move anywere past that corrugated iron, I get seen.

What you *can't* see in the screenshot, because I couldn't take screenshots while using focus mode, is *every other soldier on the map* also on the roof, posted up and waiting to see a glint of bald to blow it even smoother off.

I needed to share what I heard in my head

Crabmeat@crabme· Jun 4

10 million points to the Principality of Zeon, or something (I still haven't watched OG Gundam, so this may or may not be an accurate representation of how it goes)

That one basketball dunking meme, except I've overlapped the off model zaku as the celebrating one, given the dunker a red zaku helmet, and put a gundam head on one of the dunkees. I have very crudely photoshopped out extra limbs and given the zaku a second hand that was not visible in the original model photo. 10,000 hours in MS paint.

I can only take the image source's vague description as one of the overlapped players being Lebron James, but I don't know anything about basketballers so IDK if he's been replaced with the green or red zaku.

As mentioned, my gundam game is weak, so I have no idea if I got the "right" gundam head in the background. I don't care, Amuro, I'm doing something extremely wicked

Crabmeat@crabme· May 24

Amazing, even tank privilege can't get me into a MSQ trial, dead game?

The FFXIV duty finder, showing a wait time I'd expect for a DPS... except I picked tank.

Cultivation really is just a mixed bag huh Always a bigger dick that could flatten you, but doesn't because they're conveniently busy Until they aren't (Martial Peak is alright 500/3000 chapters in)

Two bad guys, one a poisoner, hovering above a city. The poisoner boasts that no barrier can stop his poison mist after the other guy tried and failed to punch through it.

The poison mist flowing onto and over the rectangular golden barrier, which is massive compared to them.

A corpse-themed bad guy asks the poisoner how it's going, the answer to which is that it isn't, because the barrier is, in fact, stopping the poison mist entirely, making him look even stupider than his bandages getup already does.

God damnit, milkshake duck'd again

To explain the inevitable question "what do you mean milkshake duck"

Rober has generally been an inspiration and positive influence... And now we find out he's in with the wrong tech crowd.

Wish he'd go back to making porch pirate glitter bombs.

Generated using the treachery generator: "Ce n'est pas ma belle maison" with a picture of a very lovely looking white picket fenced house that I've crudely put on a transparent background.

Translation: "This is not my beautiful house"

I'm hungry for the frame, it's got me like

Crabmeat@crabme· Apr 18

All up, not a flawless execution, but a satisfying one nonetheless, and I'm just glad it picked a time to stop, so many manga just meander on for eternity and never finish. Screenshot favorites from last half that I ended up marathoning.

Denji having a Joel Dongsteen moment as he screams: "it's all my dick's fault, I can't fight it, it ruins everything around me, damnit"

A 4-koma of Famine Devil explaining how she stays in shape despite eating so much - massive dumps. The person she's explaining this to has a TGT-style shocked expression.

What kills me is that she's taken photos of said dumps as proof, which tickles me, because a) I can't visualize a teenage girl doing that and b) Specifically Famine, like, can you picture a horse(wo)man of the apocalypse geopooping? I think not

A fake Chainsaw Man made of bone and flesh screams that: "Money is worthless! It's just paper scraps! It's value is merely an illusion performed by the government!"

Very true, by the way.

Crabmeat@crabme· Apr 16

New immediate payoff quote

A headline from the NZ Herald: "'Have I ever killed you before?' driver asked concerned passenger moments before deadly crash"

Kino

From the changelog: "Added a +RAISON D'ETRE style bonus when the Earthmover explodes"

For the uninitiated, the explosion is a set piece. This is a flavor change. It's great.

Crabmeat@crabme· Apr 5

Several. However, my heart lies with longer edits like doujins entirely meme translated, e.g. into Australian (the pages were all flipped upside down, plus the Australian "English") and the "JJBA Ending" to Emergence

A frame from the manga about the girl with the sugoi dekais (really narrowing it down, I know, but I forget the name) but an argument really hardcore karaoke from a girl in glasses or something is replaced with the lyrics from Mastodon's Blood and Thunder, which their asses were not singing

An unknown manga where a girl has collapsed on a sidewalk crying. Whatever the girl's crying about has been replaced with "I'm a fucking brainlet". I saved this as it was used as a reaction image at some point.

Another unknown manga. A bunch of nobles are using little binoculars on sticks to examine stuff, muttering as their aides take notes. Whatever they were commenting on has been replaced with anime critique, like "Garbage, dropped," "3 episode rule reached, inadequate, dropped," and "The loli is cute, picked up."

From the Girls Frontline manga; FNC is sitting on a reversed chair, casually eating chocolate as she remarks to PPSh amd Scorpion (with M4 in the background): "Hey, didn't AR squad leave you guys for dead? Not being critical, I mean, I do that all the time. What's the big deal?" PPSh looks pissed. You can't tell how Scorpion feels because only her eyepatched eye is in frame, and her face is otherwise in shadow.

I am very sure this is an edit.

Today's been a good day for the #Warframe farm Got Harrow's gubbins in a handful of runs, finished my Orvius, got a couple of weapons on the hob

Harrow's systems blueprint, successfully dropped and obtained.

For context, you only get a *chance* for it to drop after 20 minutes of survival on the Kuva Fortress or by playing the Defection mode which sucks ass

Crabmeat@crabme· Apr 1

I fucking hate having standards Time to look at Mastodon and see if they figured anything new out since I last tried them.

Jay openly saying that Claude coded Bluesky. Which we could have guessed, but kayfabe and all that. Also not surprising given the inability to add new features with any regularity.

Because everyone who posts this is in an inferior slower timezone Once again, the ruin of Monday comes to our doorstep. But a short work week!

The Highwayman from Darkest Dungeon, afflicted with an... Affliction called Monday, and looking appropriately distressed.

Solid, you say Like a snake?

The shot of Superman saying he feels more solid as he lies on the ground, but I've crudely darkened the background and given him a bandana and colored him like the Legendary Solid Snake

Oh, this is #FFXIV knowledge I did not know The dragons are aussies, mate Bogan dragons summoned a god, and the Allagans didn't like him bowling underarm or sandpapering his ball in cricket, so they put him in the moon Understandable

A screenshot from EndyD20's FFXIV stream, as he notes information his chat told him: The description for the Wind-up Kangaroo mentions it's from Meracydia.

Perhaps a little off piste to the original topic, but that's a really cool article in general. While a little tragic in that the wheel simply continues to turn, it's extremely relatable (traffic), and possibly even heartwarming how they've handled the changing times.
