Time for yet another of these threads. I've changed the title slightly to fit how they're used nowadays, but it should be the same otherwise. The previous thread is archived at https://archive.ph/Qh8mc

While digging around for train anime, I stumbled across Mushiba Tetsudou in a MAL list of all places. The description sounded like some kind of weird toothbrushing PSA, and I wouldn't be surprised if it was one, but "mechanical biological train" caught my eye and I knew I had to see this.
So what the hell is this shit? It's a 9 minute short about some kid on a mecha steam train that gargles toothpaste and blasts it at cavity people, which turns them into either regular humans or cavity coal to fuel its furnace. There's a bit of a plot which isn't really worth talking or caring about, mostly CG characters and machinery over 2D backgrounds, and some cool environments in Cavity Town. Really, there isn't a whole lot to say about it beyond that it looks nice, nicer than it had to be, and nice enough to go on the rail anime chart.
It's also directed by the guy who's directing that godawful CG Trigun show.

Like another anon said I think the lack of moralizing about how dystopic it is is kind of the point. One of the earliest episodes deals with interceptors which quite literally allow law enforcement or whoever to surveil someone via their own eyes, and when the technology becomes public there is an initial backlash but it just kind of falls to the wayside. Psycho Pass is very similar in this regard.

The currently airing GITS series is far more overt about how shitty life is. Lots of corruption and crime on display, and being a direct adaption of the manga written during the heydey of the cyberpunk era it has a more gritty aesthetic. SAC on the other hand feels more like an extrapolation based on the current culture, with more powerful (and invasive) technology. The corruption and crime is still there, but it's business as usual and you still have to go to work. I enjoy both portrayals.

>Psycho Pass is very similar in this regard.
I don't remember Psycho Pass like that. It's atmosphere and presentation of the world felt more in line with how sad it is. But with GITSes every time I felt a slight disjoint between how evil the scenario presented is, and the way its presented.
Putting aside the naivete of focusing more on small time criminals and revolutionaries instead of giga corpos and governments.
I think I wouldn't feel that if GITSes also showed more laidback or casual things happening in this world. The people don't seem THAT depressed, so it'd be good to show them leading normal lives. More Togusa with his wife or something, and not

I think those little realization scenes would take place right before the proper dystopian setting takes a hold. IIRC certain scenes from Platonic Chain (>>91805) did have those scenes. It did seem like that show took place slightly before a cyberpunk setting.
>>116433
Assuming you haven't already seen it, Haibane Renmei. It's very much not cyberpunk, and I'm not sure if dystopian is the correct word for the atmosphere. Maybe somber? The story takes place in walled in village and going beyond the wall is forbidden.
Replies: >>116477
>>116475
I somehow haven't seen Haibane Renmei yet, actually. Maybe I'll try it after I get back to G-Reco. I don't have my hopes high for that one, but I've been curious about it for a while and what I saw was at least distinct.

Discuss and recommend light novels. 

>What's a light novel?
Light novels are books—or more specifically, works of popular fiction from Japan. In Japan they are called ranobe, which is a shortened form of raito noberu, or light novel. A typical light novel volume is a bit shorter than a regular one (under 300 pages), is small in size (14.8 cm in height, and 10.6 cm in width), is affordable (around 600-800 yen), includes a number of manga-style illustrations (probably 5 to 10 of them), and is not too difficult to read (generally targeting a young adult audience). Of course, there are exceptions that can be found regarding any one of these points.

Even if they didn't, so what? The volume is still practically unusable, the only difference is that it didn't get recycled into new paper. But I seriously doubt they kept it, considering used manga in nippon is like 50 to 500yen tops.
And shit like shonen jumps or other magazines belong in the trash a week after reading (and most go there). If you never saw the paper quality in those you have no idea how bad it is. Literally BARE minimum.
The "big bad corpo" bought thousands of books and did what they wanted with them. Oh the horror. Find better things to be outraged about, I'm sure you can find some shitskin that murdered whites (again).
I really don't care about some books being bought and used when there's a constant invasion, displacement and murder going on.

True enough.
I wonder how translated LN readers feel about it. Even manga gets fucked in the ass by the usual perpetrators, but there's at least the art that comes straight from japan, but with books you're essentially getting a western version.

If IP didn't exist, what would stop a a literal nobody from legally cloning a a big corporation's project the day it launches and diminishing its profits? How is that corporation supposed to pay for food so they can keep making things?

IP only ever protects the giants, the smaller you are, the more useless it is. What, you're going to go to court and pay a lawyer over someone """""""stealing""""""" your project? Lmao. Whereas D*sney or N*ntendo can sue literal nobodies into the ground for daring to hack their consoles or games.
Consider for a second what IP actually is: a license to call police on your ass because you copied something without permission. Calling organized armed men who are authorized to kill those who resist *because of fucking copying and distributing of files*. Now it sounds absurd, doesn't it? Because it is absurd. There's a time and place for the threat of deadly force, and copying ones and zeros is NOT that time and place.

>Neither of these will make your product sell. They won't stop random people from selling unofficial tshirts of your game. They won't stop the Chinese from copying you, or kebabs from selling low-quality DVDs of your jewtube animation in Middle Eastern markets. You still have to be a good businessman or deal with one. If you are a small guy trying to make a dent, copyright and patents are usually way more annoying than they are helpful.
Here we can see an anon that actually worked in production/distribution/selling of something. Selling stuff and making money off of it isn't easy, and ((( copyright ))) doesn't help you with finding your clients and figuring out logistics.

Sorry, force of habit, its literally called "comfy ui", a frontend (I think?) for diffusion generation. Its node based and people write their own nodes for it, so you can do some crazy shit with the right setup.
Once I made something that went through a list of artists, generated something with their tags, then put their tag in top left corner. It went through 392 artists so I could see which ones the model already knew or made good things with.

No, Americans are Americans. We're a nation established explicitly for people who agree to keep and defend a certain creed and values, summed up in our declaration as life, liberty, and property. Anything saying otherwise is just someone looking to sow discontent and division in the country through class, racial, and/or religious warfare. And to those people, you can fuck off!

Are newborns not American in this framework? They sure as hell can't comprehend this creed. If I explicitly state that I am against your creed and values, do I get denaturalized, or does the piece of paper saying I'm American win out here? Does the scenario I just detailed have me deported if I'm a literal Mayflower descendant who hates everything about my heritage and chants Death to America on the regular? What is this ridiculous framework you have, man?

Both it and the metric system feel weird to a Canuckistani because we use an awkward mix of both depending on what we're measuring. We measure driving distances with kilometres, but switch to feet when we measure our heights. I've even heard that in some parts of the country, people habitually combine metric and imperial in describing certain kinds of distances, but I've thankfully never bumped into that one myself.
>>113448
I personally think that the feet unit should be a smaller size, maybe closer to loli feet. And gallons should be replaced with however much a lolis mouth can hold.
