Monthly likes/dislikes

❣️You’re My Sky - I know I keep yelling about it on here and I’m sorry lol but I love it so much!! 🥺The cinematography is stunning (ITSAY vibes all around) and it’s very very nicely produced. I’m usually not a fan of sports-themed stuff but everything about this is capturing. The acting is very solid (even from the child actors) and the storytelling for all 3 couples is amazing. I especially love Thorn’s and Vee’s characters and I’m highkey whipped for DomeVee lol. Not to mention the soundtrack is beautiful 🥺 I had very high hopes and so far I’m not disappointed. thumbs up!!

👎🏻 GenY 2 - unlike YMS, this one is, indeed, a disappointment lol. I was looking forward to it for a while but so far it’s plain, slow and boring. It feels like all the couples have lost chemistry and the story around Pha’s comeback is supposed to be dramatic but I cannot take it seriously. It feels forced and is badly executed. The PokTong story is super flat and I’ve never been less interested in something. I still love MarkKit but they have literally no plot. They deserve better. All in all it’s clearly a decrease compared to last season, which shouldn’t be a surprise because we all know the deal with bl sequels - but it’s still a bummer. At first I was interested in the wayu/thanu/phai situation but at this point I’m only watching for the JackKoh and MarkKit crumbs - and shamelessly skipping over the rest. This could’ve been so much better. sigh.

February 6, 2021

February 8th is the 3rd anniversary of Nijisanji, and to celebrate I want to give you a quip about every single extant member of Nijisanji... since there are over 130, that’s including ID, IN, and KR... but not VirtuaReal, because they are not on Youtube and also.... China... it’s split into three parts. Part 1 covers everything up to the merger that happened on the beginning of 2019.

First Wave

Tsukino Mito - The iinchou. One of the original seiso gone wrong. Mito is something else, a term I used for Haato, but Mito’s degeneracy feels very different. Mito is much more cynical, definitely likes gore like Korone, and definitely one who calculates things. Haato is just beginning to figure out how to play out her degeneracy, to great effect, but Mito knew the future. In that sense, she fits the Student Representative nature.

Remember that Mito is kind of like Sora in Hololive. This comes as the major source tension, for Hololive, it’s the tension of being an idol and being oneself. Here, it’s more like how to best express oneself within the limitation of the medium. It seems similar, but the feeling is quite different, and that’s what makes Nijisanji so different from Hololive.

Higuchi Kaede - I heard she plays the trumpet. Hmm, that’s all you need to know about this person. If you were in band, you know the instrument determines your personality. Trumpet people are outgoing, brash, but ultimately a nice group of people. The girls, in particular, have a cool side to them, even if they present feminine. They are going to be good friends, with no worries of love blossoming. Usually referred to as Deron, which roughly translates to a slobbering napper... and part of JK Gumi with Mito and Rin.

Shizuka Rin - The functional leader of the group. She’s the competent one, pretty good at gaming, pretty good at hosting, good at being both boke and tsukkomi, also good at drawing apparently. Also good at language as well.

Yuki Chihiro - A soft spoken loli who plays a lot of shooters, and is pretty good at them. Also quite pervy at times. So, just your typical salty gamer, who happens to be a magical girl, apparently... so in another word, a brat.

Elu - Full name, Snow White Paradise El Santo Flow Wasurena Pure Princess Livre Love Heidern Dokodoko Yattaze Valkyria Passion Alfr Noel Chakoboshi Eluaria Frosia Made-in Bloom Elu. Shares the illustrator with Hal Shibuya, Toya, Sister Claire and so on. Started out as a talk streamer, known for her wide range of voice, she shifted to playing Minecraft as you usually do. A bit lacking at top, but tries her best.

Shibuya Hajime - Not to be confused with Shibuya Hal, who was affiliated with upd8. One of the more proficient players in Nijisanji, from his start as pro Getting Over It player, to giving tech advice, and eventually establishing himself as a pro PUBG and Apex player. Apparently did some odd tweets that got him under fire, but he’s better now, apparently. Probably why he did so good at the imagination tournament.

Moira - A goddess, you know with ara ara and everything. Apparently seems to have her head above her clouds... which makes sense considering she’s a goddess.

Suzuya Aki - We have a cross-dresser, everyone. According to TVTropes, he’s affably evil, you know the type. Apparently the most normal of the first wave... and as you have might have guessed Toya really likes this kid. It figures.

Second Wave

Morinaka Kazaki - Another loli character, but has an adult form. Formed a duo with Gibara for some goddamn reason... childhood friends with Emma August, and strangely seen as mother-like, although she looks ten half the time. It’s odd.

Mononobe Alice - Not a loli, despite the appearance... and some of her acts. Has a decent grasp in English, which is really pretty cool. Not much other than that.

Suzuka Utako - The shotacon of the group, and just the most perverted person. Usually has a deep voice, but actually has a pretty wide range, and therefore a really good singer. First Nijisanji member to get banned, apparently.

Fumiko Tamaki - Very much Nijisanji’s own Okayu, including the bad live streaming environment, and having a cat of her own, who is just the most bad of kitties... but even more like a cat in how her schedule is what she feels like... apparently got 250 grand by sleeping. Well, sleeping cat is a staple. Also has a tendency to get her jaw taken out... you know those people. As you might garner, very clueless with technology.

Yuhi Riri - She’s from the future... She has a nice boyish voice, but usually is the butt of the joke due to her lore, so no one comments about it. She seems nice.

Ienaga Mugi - Shares the illustrator with Rin, a shut-in who loves video games and her onii-chan, one of the few who actually grows in age. Pretty good musician, likes to flirt with Riri... which is interesting. Had her identity revealed at school... yikes.

Ushimi Ichigo - She’s a strawberry milk sea slug, which is just the coolest thing. Has a father-daughter relationship with Belmond, and good at drawing. Got some cool advice from Matsuri... which actually, uh, isn’t really a good idea, isn’t it?

Kenmochi Toya - Speaking of not being a good idea to be next to lolis... many people point to the double standard about female vtubers being creepy as kind of a quirk, compared to men, who would go straight to jail... and I point to Kenmochi Toya.

He’s a good host, strangely like Matsuri or Marine, apparently the son of Mito, which Mito likes but Toya doesn’t... go figure. Has that v-line chin that is parodied a lot, and likes to rap... which also feels like a Marine thing. Sorry... he’s pretty good on his own.

Fushimi Gaku - Cheerful man who does a morning show and plays horror games. Kind of plays the father figure for the second wave... but also has a dark side, which makes sense considering the children above. Also fit with the horror games above.

Gilzaren III - Rarely streams, but hangs around in the chat a lot, like he’s some kind of an official lurker of Nijisanji. Also speaks with a pretty high tone, which doesn’t quite fit, although this might be a ruse... it’s unsure.

Nijisanji Gamers

Kanae - Kind of have his head in the clouds, which fits the lore of having amnesia. Kind of the leader of the Gamers, and one of the best at gaming. Does long streams and everything, likes PUBG but venturing to Apex and the likes. Good at Minecraft, too. Usually works with Kuzuha, leading to that famous clip... such a good classic.

Overall, a really solid streamer and personality in general. A real gem for the crew.

Akabane Youko - Rarely streams, but she is good at gaming. Has a wild laugh and so people still like her... huh, in some sense she’s the female Gilzaren.

Himawari Honma - Gamers 2nd Generation is an absolute goldmine. There were three, one of them retired, but you still know her (wink wink), and all three are just fantastic. Probably the best is Hima... one of those empty-head people that is really good at gaming... you know, Aqua, but somehow better, least to me.

Like Aqua, she's a pretty good singer and she likes vocaloids. But Hima-chan is like a sunflower while Aqua is an... onion. I mean onion could be sweet, but it always gives off a bad taste at the end, while a sunflower is a pure delight. Just look at her, her emptiness is a light, while Aqua’s emptiness is dark. (You can tell my bias here.)

I never like the dumb sterotypes, but Hima is so warm and comforting in her emptiness that you cannot help but smile at the airhead. She’s just such a good vtuber.

Sasaki Saku - She’s the hot-headed of the three, well two. She picks fights with everyone, including people like Belmond or Yashiro, and they fight back because she’s just an entertaining fighter. She’s entertaining, period.

Kuzuha - Probably one of more well-known male Nijisanji members. Went on the Suisei route, as in, he was independent before joining Nijisanji. Plays FPS with Kanae as mentioned before. Pretty good player, but better at banter. Kind of a mischievous person who is actually quite shy... a little of Pekora in the person, except Kuzuha is more annoying than truly like a villain that is Pekora.

One of the people who says cannot sing, but can actually sing very well. Just overall, a great talent to have and just fun to watch, especially in collabs.

Shiina Yuika - Likes Nintendo, and also does a radio show on YouTube. Actually did a radio show as well once. One of the brutally honest people, and a trouble-maker.

As you kind of expect, Sasaki Saku was the one who really got her into the groove, and during her what-turned out to be an absence, Shiina did feel a bit down. Likes to sleep, which makes sense in the context. Not the best at gaming, but still a fun player.

Aqua really likes her, which is interesting since she shares the illustrator with Okayu, and therefore the two are close friends... and they would go after the poor onion.

Makaino Ririmu - Supposedly a succubus. Definitely headstrong and kind of a loli, so there’s a pretty wide fanbase for her... but she’s honestly a good-hearted person. Just look at her collabs with Kou or Lize... she did calculus for a stream?

SEED 1st Gen

Ryushen - Real name, Sengawa Midori. Singer of uncertain gender, so I’ll use ‘they’. Known to be the planner, and a good one at that. Friends with Sister Claire, and their junior, Kakeru and Hayato. Is part of the group, ‘Rain Drops’ with five other members. Originally stated to be part of VOIZ, a male pop group, but as stated... ‘they’.

As for personality, they are a cool kid, friendly with others. Not a bad person to watch.

Hanabatake Chaika - Muscular Okama Elf who wears a maid dress. Very cool personality, a rough and tumble kind of person. As with the description earlier, the concept is odd, but the person is odd in a more palatable way. Honestly, one of people I would try to seek to watch in Nijisanji. Apparently the cross-dressing thing was enforced, rather than a personal choice. Got turned into a robot once.

As for an example, his 3D debut was actually months after he has gotten them and actually used them in collabs and TV interviews, so Chaika skipped right to the shenanigans instead. Perhaps this spontaneity is what makes Nijisanji 3D better.

Yashiro Kizuku - Concept is a systems engineer, likes rhythm and retro games. Friendly with a lot of people, especially with Sasaki Saku, which they host a gaming show. It’s really fun! They are a good bickering couple. The show is kind of a good gateway for Nijisanji as a whole, I believe. Oh, right the intellectual test with Hima...

Yeah, the blandest concept, but one of the most likable members in Nijisanji.

Dola - She’s a fire dragon. Act as an elder to the SEED group, kind of an admin at the minecraft server, so she’s treated like a god here. Good singer, great dancer.

She’s in a group with Yashiro, Hima, and Kuzuha, where the concept is that they are a family, with Dola and Yashiro being parents, and Hima and Kuzuha being their children, and they are one of the best groups to come out of Nijisanji. You can’t miss them.

Sister Claire - Usually does really short talk streams, which was reformatted to a radio format. One of the last seiso people, but strangely gets along with many of the members, mostly because she wants to be funny, and honestly... succeeds for me.

Also a great singer... who would have guessed? Sometimes treated as a cult leader.

Todoroki Kyoko - A 19 year old gyaru. Self proclaimed normie, but obviously not the case anymore. Great at drawing, but only in 2D. As with gyarus, really nice!

Suzuki Masaru - A chunni cross-dresser. Wants to be cool, but obviously cute. Actually doesn’t really like cross-dressing, but it does get the views. Honestly, he looks cool.

Uzuki Kou - A rich teenage boy, well liked by other people. Great singer but doesn’t show often... he does have a rap about hot pot ingredients that is well-covered by others. Friends with Ririmu, I believe. He’s a nice person to watch.

Azuchi Momo - A 14-year old illustrator who did her own design, and one of the most dangerous members of Nijisanji. Yep, known for her curses and drinking cocktails... and yes, she’s supposed to be 14. But even she recognizes that she’s an adult woman...

SEED 2nd Gen

Takamiya Rion - A student at a magic school. Supposed to be a lass, but in reality becomes like that sketch where two beautiful women are dubbed by kids? Yeah, she becomes like that. Just the least intelligent person... good for moron-sexuals, I guess.

Apparently this is more a debuff, as she can act smart and lady-like in late night streams. She was the one who hosted the imagination event. Also really likes SAO, and therefore fell into Genshin pretty hard last year, and who can blame her?

Asuka Hina - Is sometimes called a succubus, kind of works a producer and did a special producing session as a result. Can be calm and outgoing at once.

Maimoto Keisuke - Originally a farmer, but got tired of it. Does gaming and sport commentary, usually wrestling or baseball. Became someone who always gets tortured by his female peers... strange but not a bad character. Oh, this harassment leads to a lot of anger and there’s a tradition where they burn people virtually... and he always gets lumped in as a person to be burned. Friends with Subaru and Ui, and forms the Oozora family, believes to be a middle-aged man, but others don’t treat him like that.

Amemori Sayo - Typical high school student, but we’re sure she’s a ghost. Does a lot of special effects, leading to tech problems. Kind of a quiet speaker.

Kanda Shoichi - typical college student, has a buddy relationship with Gundou Mirei. Good at gaming, singing and hosting, which means he got his due even though it was a little late. Doesn’t really like Korea, though, which is a problem.

Rindou Mikoto - An oni queen, likes girls and booze. Can hold down a liquor, and hold down a girl... a quick learner in everything, therefore excellent at everything.

I knew her as Marine’s coach at Mario Kart... and now I know the reason.

Joe Rikiichi - He’s a joker, a real comedian. Good at improv. Pretty poor. Does late-night radio with Maimoto as well. He’s always a fun person to watch.

Debidebi Debiru - Demon koala who dabble in the occult. He’s the kid in the family, with all the stubbornness and gumption included. Likes to make nicknames, good in collabs. And as with kids, ultimately a good person at heart, which is why he does collabs.

Probably one of my favorites... I’m kind of miffed his section is so short, honestly.

Sakura Ritsuki - A fairy from another world. Basically only plays minecraft as the resident builder in the area. Got a new outfit, and suddenly got a ship going on with Kuzuha, which is good for her, I guess. Yeah, she does what she does.

Machita Chima - A great singer and bit of a psychopath. Went dark to study for exams, but soon returned to herself. Kind of a younger Suisei is what I’m getting at.

Belmond Banderas - The Corpse of Nijisanji. Low voice, and very kind to everyone. But he can be funny too. If he’s drunk, he’s just your average guy who agrees on everything. Also incredibly lucky, apparently, enough to make a religion with Lize as worshipper.

Yumeoi Kakeru - Singer-songwriter who got calling as a host. Really likes Ryushen to a psychopathic degree, but they are good friends as well. Seriously, he’s one of those well-adjusted psychopaths. Apparently he was a biochemist before singing. Sara calls him papa... which, okay, I guess. Did some shady stuff like catfishing in the past...

Overall, he’s that person who came from a rough background, and that means there’s some edges and some of his strength. Definitely an important asset.

Kuroi Shiba - She’s a four year old dog, but acts like an old lady and eventually earned the suffering characteristic and works at a shady company. But what’s the most fascinating thing is her deep lore. Seriously, it might be one of the most interesting lore before Haachama/Haato became a thing.

Yaguruma Rine - A eleven-year old girl who says the first thing on her mind. Also went dark during exam season, but returned after the summer exams. Practices English a bit during her streams, so there’s that going for her. Also her phone disappeared for a bit.

Harusaki Air - Air here meaning ‘spring’ in Greek. Kind of interpreted as a cleaner version of Toya. He’s a prince, so he’s usually busy... unlike a certain princess.

Naruse Naru - Remember has a different look! Although now he can switch it back and forth... apparently it was management issues? Whatever, won the current mario kart tournament (Mikoto was second) and that’s pretty much it, honestly.

[docexe-mx]

Like many Nintendo fans, I find it incredibly frustrating how Nintendo has managed game announcements since the pandemic started: They have gotten into a really annoying habit of remaining radio silent for weeks (if not months!) then dropping video presentations and game trailers completely out of the blue and without fanfare. 

Furthermore, we haven’t had a proper full Nintendo Direct in almost a year (!). We have only seen Directs Mini, Indie World presentations, a Treehouse livestream and the occasional presentation focused on specific games/brands like Animal Crossing, Pokémon and Smash Bros. Some of those things (like the Treehouse livestream or the Partners Showcase Mini Direct they hosted today) were also really underwhelming.

It doesn’t help how extremely secretive they are in general, neither how they have opted for having extremely short marketing windows: Most of their first party games announced this year have had at most (at most!) a gap of three months between announcement and release. The only exception so far is New Pokémon Snap, which doesn’t even have a proper release date. It gets particularly wild in some cases, like Paper Mario: The Origami King. It was suddenly announced with a trailer on late May for a release on the middle of July: They unceremoniously announced one of their biggest games of the year just two months before release (!!).

It doesn’t help that, at the moment, the only 1st party game they have announced for the rest of 2020 is Pikmin 3 Deluxe, which doesn’t come out until the end of October (!!!). That pretty much means they don’t have anything else in the pipeline until late October and who knows if they even have any other game planned for the rest of the year.

After all of that, it’s pretty clear why so many fans have gotten so grouchy and antsy in the past few months whenever Nintendo makes a new announcement and said announcement is not a proper full Nintendo Direct focused on 1st party games.

However, with all of that being said, I also can’t help it but face-palm at some of the really hyperbolic takes made by some people online: From the notion that today’s Partners Showcase was “the worst Nintendo Direct in history!” (mmm… no, it was underwhelming but not worse than some of the presentations they had during the Wii U/3DS era), to the notion that 2020 is “the worst year in Nintendo’s history!” (take it from one of the ten people who owned a Wii U in 2015 and 2016: Its isn’t [Oh my goodness, it really isn’t!]), to the notion that “Nintendo is in serious trouble because of the pandemic and they are DOOMED!” (sigh… are we back on the “Nintendoomed” memes so soon?).

Granted, it can’t be denied that Nintendo is in trouble: It’s pretty clear they were seriously hit by the lockdowns related to the COVID-19 pandemic, with their development processes and logistics being massively disrupted. As things stand, I won’t be surprised if most of the games they originally had planned for 2020 won’t launch until 2021.

The thing is, they aren’t really in any worse shape than pretty much everyone else in the game industry: The havoc resulting from the pandemic also affected all the major publishers and platform holders and has caused major delays across the board. Indeed, Sony and Microsoft are essentially on the same boat as Nintendo: Most of their currently announced first party games don’t actually have a release date at all (heck, Halo Infinite was planned for the launch of the Xbox Series X and then was delayed until a vague date of “2021”). 

Furthermore, we are around three months away from the release of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and we still don’t know the full launch lineup or even the price of any console. That’s unprecedented for a next gen launch! It’s clear everyone has it though at the moment, not only Nintendo.

Of course, there is a key difference between Microsoft and Sony in comparison to Nintendo: Unlike Nintendo, the other two console makers are NOT as ridiculously secretive and don’t really care if the games they announce are still several years away from release. That has been one of Nintendo’s major problems for years if not decades: Their overall secrecy and lack of transparency.

While hardcore fans would be disappointed about games being delayed, in the current climate I think most people would be pretty sympathetic if Nintendo just came out and said “we are sorry, we had these games planned for late 2020 but now will launch them in 2021, please understand”. But no! They continue with the secrecy and radio silence and in the process just contribute to feeding our collective neurosis.

As things stand, I just hope those Mario remasters / remakes / whatever that were rumored in January are real and launching on November. It’s not optimal but at least it’s something!

birthday party ~closed rp starter

Ben @ben-hargreeves-official

Bea was, unsurprisingly, still awake at 12am. It came as no surprise, especially considering the day. October 1st. Thirty years ago to that day, Bea had been born. They didn’t have a number. They didn’t have a price. They weren’t even a they. But they did have a companion. What was supposed to be an everlasting friendship was cut devastatingly short 14 years ago. And their twin was gone. He’d been gone for 14 years and yet whenever October 1st rolled around again Bea felt the dull ache in their chest increase to nearly blinding levels of pain as they remembered him. Older twin. Number 6. The Horror. Ben Hargreeves.

Five @comic-five-hargreeves-official @youngfivehargreeves

Bea had stayed up all night in preparation for this day. October 1st. Finally here. As the years went by Bea became aware of just how mundane birthdays were for them. When you share the date with 7 other people, those of which often ignore your attempts at a reconnection, you become instead accustomed to spending the day on your own. But this year was special. Because he was here again. Five Hargreeves had appeared out of thin air earlier that year, much like he did the day he was born. And Bea was not going to let him realize how mundane birthdays were, not until he experienced the most unmundane birthday bash yet.

Luther, Diego, Allison, Klaus, Vanya @teen-diego-hargreeves @comic-allisonhargreeves-official @funkylittleseance @the-official-white-violin

Of their non time traveling siblings, Bea had sent invitations to what would hopefully be a very busy and very successful party. Despite the Hargreeves siblings current title of only seeing each other at weddings and funerals, Bea hoped a birthday party would be a special enough event to catch their attention. They were all turning 30 after all.

Second Gen Kiddos/Party Crashers @toni-hargreeves-official @nessestthebestest @hope-katz-official @ace-katz-official @the-incredible-boston-macarthur

Of course, how would a party that big be able to get set up without some help. Luckily, despite their parents obvious nosiness, their kids did not seem so inclined to secret spilling. Bea had recruited a number of them to help with party preparations.

Benji @benjamin-murdock-official

Bea’s attempts to keep the party excitement away from Ben will very likely not go to plan. He’s as much a trouble maker as his father and his namesake combined.

The greatest supply of rifle scopes

Alexa for kids

Alexa for kids ships later this month, and while I’m not sure I’ll buy one for my kid (I prefer my kid’s VUI use to be out where I can see it - er, hear it), I might get one for myself. Also, the current state of hand-off between my 1st Gen Echo and my Echo Show is so bad that the last thing I want to do is introduce another device where I have to whisper conspiratorially to it in order to make sure that the right one does the thing I want it to do.

Of course, new technology begets new thinkpieces on whether or not technology is good for kids. My first reaction to the Echo for kids was horror, but I appreciate that Amazon has had content filtering on the Kindle Fire for ages (it’s nearly impossible to use, but it exists), and I am a kid who watched as much TV as I possibly could (hours of Saturday morning cartoons, hours of after-school cartoons, and plenty of totally child-inappropriate Arnold Schwarzenegger movies) . . . I turned out okay?

Fine, I’m not letting my 5-year-old watch Commando anytime soon, but I’m also not too concerned about VUIs. They’re so limited in their capabilities that right now the only negative is that I set a horrible example: I yell at a device and in turn my kid yells at the device and there’s frankly a whole lot more yelling than I want happening in my home. Do I want a device that praises my kid for saying please? Or do I just need to start setting a better example on my own?

Alexa aka Echo Dot for kids: Ships from Amazon on May 9th (and feature a whole lot of subscriptions that probably auto-renew so now’s a good time to determine if you want to go down that path)

More Amazon/Alexa:

Tidying up’s a snap: Alexa is like a virtual Mary Poppins Amazon’s voice-activated assistant — by way of the Echo and Echo Dot — helps this family stay on task. (shaking my head at all of the Mary Poppins references lately)

Alexa is a revelation for the blind Ian Bogost writes “Legally blind since age 18, my father missed out on the first digital revolution…” A lot of the difficulties Ian’s dad runs into are common to anyone using a voice interface for the first time - they aren’t specific to people who are blind, or older adults, or even those who don’t do much computing. The real story here is that Ian had to reconsider his father’s relationship with the world, and the promise of independence offered by voice assistants.

When will Alexa know everything? An interview with Al Lindsay, vice president of Alexa Engine Software at Amazon. Literally every time I read this man’s name I read it as A.I. Lindsay - like Artificial Intelligence - that’s what happens when you live in Silicon Valley too long and not enough websites use serifs.

This week I’m reading three books:

Fascism: A Warning by Madeleine Albright It is sooo good and sooo infuriating. I started it on a plane and found myself silently saying ‘Fuck’ every 30 seconds as I read it. Now you’re warned.

Head On: A Novel of the Near Future by John Scalzi It’s like a good Michael Crichton book, meaning it’s less about technology and more about people. This is the second book in this world, so consider picking up the first one (Lock In). Also, I just learned that Scalzi wrote the main character in a way that they could be a man or a woman and my brain assumed they were a man because...patriarchy. I’m kind of sad about that.

Machines of Loving Grace: The Quest for Common Ground Between Humans and Robots by John Markoff I was skeptical about this book because on the first page of the preface Markoff describes the Stanford golf course Coupa as “adjacent” to the course, when it’s far more accurate to say that it is “at” the course. Other than that, I’m getting a good background on robotics. Yes, it's full of dudes and Markoff tries to make up for that in the preface by name-dropping Cynthia Breazeal, but it feels like an afterthought. Still, it's a good book, just...so many guys.

If you’re wondering how I read so much, I will tell you my secret: my hobby is reading.

Until next week!

News ‘Insurgents’ lobbied Trump for war crimes pardons with little Pentagon involvement, officials say - The Washington Post

News

Army Maj. Mathew L. Golsteyn, who faced a damage trial subsequent year in the 2010 dying of a suspected Taliban bombmaker, said he expected the dedication to be like a flash. However Trump talked to him for virtually 15 minutes, asking questions on his plans for the long dawdle and the Pentagon’s application of militia justice.

“I’m paraphrasing right here, nonetheless he requested, ‘Did you feel handle you were going to uncover a ravishing shake or that it became slanted or biased in opposition to you?’ ” Golsteyn said in an interview. “I suggested him, ‘Sir, it became somewhat constructive that the tip consequence became mounted.’ And he said, ‘Yeah, that became my thoughts, as properly.’ ”

Trump’s intervention in the conditions triggered a appealing backlash from some veterans and moral consultants, who said that this may undermine the militia justice system and weaken U.S. credibility in a distant places country. However on Thursday, Trump weighed in all over again, announcing in a tweet that he'll no longer allow one in every of the service participants to be ejected from the Navy SEALs.

“The Navy will NOT be eliminating Warfighter and Navy Seal Eddie Gallagher’s Trident Pin,” the president wrote. “This case became dealt with very badly from the inspiration. Gain lend a hand to business!”

Rear Adm. Charles Brown, the Navy’s high spokesman, said in an announcement Thursday night time that the service is attentive to the president’s tweet and expecting further guidance.

How Trump got right here to factor in that the Pentagon could perchance no longer take care of the conditions somewhat, and in the end field the pardons, reflects his tendency to settle for the advice of oldsters out of doorways his administration. The president largely left protection officers out of his discussions about the topic until about a weeks in the past and suggested his high advisers that his supporters would lend a hand the switch, in accordance with five officers acquainted with the topic.

As yet every other, the officers said, Trump discussed the topic with other folks in his orbit, including Pete Hegseth, a Fox News persona who highlighted the conditions on his show and described the service participants as heroes facing malicious prosecution. Trump called Hegseth a gargantuan collection of events to keep in touch about the topic and suggested others about the conversations, in accordance with one most modern and one extinct administration official.

This legend of how Trump reached his dedication — and what comes subsequent — is in line with interviews with bigger than a dozen folks acquainted with the conditions, including White Dwelling and Pentagon officers. Many of them spoke on the location of anonymity thanks to the sensitivity of the topic and a desire to kill a ways from the president’s ire.

To boot to to Golsteyn, Trump pardoned extinct Army 1st Lt. Clint Lorance, who became convicted in 2013 of two counts of second-diploma damage after ordering his squaddies to begin fire on unarmed males in Afghanistan. Trump furthermore reinstated the wicked of Gallagher, a Navy SEAL who became acquitted of damage in July nonetheless convicted of posing for a photograph with the remains of an Islamic Verbalize fighter.

Early this month, Protection Secretary Keep T. Esper and Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy — both Army veterans — went to the White Dwelling to persuade the president no longer to switch forward with his belief. The talk to got right here one day after Hegseth, who did no longer reply to The Washington Put up’s requests for comment, presented on his show that he expected Trump to intervene in the conditions.

For over an hour, the senior protection officers described what they have about to be the facts of the case, said officers acquainted with the meeting. They carried documents and graphics with them and pointed out that Golsteyn became accused of burying the man he had killed, digging up his remains and then transferring them. Lorance had been convicted in the deaths of unarmed males, they added.

Senior protection officers, who realized about Trump’s belief rapidly earlier than Hegseth’s announcement, were pleased that Trump became being fed unfriendly recordsdata. Two officers said one doc that reached the Oval Space of job said that the Afghans killed in Lorance’s case were “gunning” their motorbike on the squaddies — some extent veritably repeated by conservative pundits. Varied squaddies testified at Lorance’s trial that the males killed were a pair hundred yards away and no longer on a motorbike when the People opened fire.

Finally of the meeting, Trump shared the facets Hegseth became making, in accordance with one most modern and one extinct administration official. The protection officers tried to accurate what they saw as misinformation, the officers said.

Esper later described the dialog with Trump as “sturdy.”

Trump suggested other advisers on the White Dwelling that, earlier than the meeting, he already had made his dedication to field pardons. Esper sought to delay an announcement, the officers said. Army Gen. Keep A. Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Body of workers, argued that the pardons would distress U.S. relationships round the field, and other advisers said it may perchance perchance space a unfriendly precedent.

“They were seeking to convince the president these guys were truly criminals, no longer heroes,” one in every of the officers said.

Trump said the system became stacked in opposition to the males and it may perchance perchance send a unfriendly message if “we throw folks in detention heart for going to war for us,” the officers said.

Trump first signaled publicly that he could perchance wade into war crimes conditions final December, after Golsteyn’s well-known other, Julie, looked on Hegseth’s program.

“At the seek recordsdata from of many, I will be reviewing the case of a ‘U.S. Militia hero,’ Major Matt Golsteyn, who's charged with damage,” Trump tweeted later on. “He could perchance face the dying penalty from our non-public authorities after he admitted to killing a Terrorist bomb maker whereas in a distant places country.”

The president’s tweet — a shock to advocates for the service participants — altered potentialities, said folks acquainted with the conditions.

While Hegseth started discussing the conditions with the president, United American Patriots, a nonprofit that advocates for service participants charged with war crimes, furthermore sent recordsdata to the White Dwelling, said David Gurfein, the neighborhood’s chief govt. Gurfein said in an interview that UAP equipped the tips this spring after a congressman — he declined to divulge who — met with Trump.

Several officers said that Trump started making comparisons to the conditions of Bowe Bergdahl, a soldier who brought on a big manhunt in Afghanistan after he deserted his put up in 2009 and became captured by militants, and Chelsea Manning, a soldier who leaked a trove of classified recordsdata. President Barack Obama traded five Taliban officers for Bergdahl and invited his folks to the Rose Backyard earlier than he became court docket-martialed. Obama shortened Manning’s prison sentence from 35 years to seven in 2017.

“Our large warfighters wants to be allowed to fight,” Trump said in a tweet Sunday. “I set no longer need done this for Sgt. Bergdahl or Chelsea Manning!”

One U.S. official acquainted with the discussions said he believes Trump’s mind effectively became made up about Golsteyn after seeing the preliminary interview with his well-known other in December. A “cohort” of “insurgents” advocated for the service participants for years, one official fascinated with the campaign said proudly, nonetheless the trouble received necessary traction after Trump took an passion.

“I judge from the moment that Julie Golsteyn made her first media look, the president had already made up his mind about what he essential to realize,” the official said. “However he furthermore became presenting a possibility to please in in some other case.”

In Could well also merely, the president pardoned extinct 1st Lt. Michael Behenna, who became convicted in the 2008 damage of an unarmed al-Qaeda detainee in Iraq. Behenna became first and most necessary sentenced to 25 years in prison, then became paroled in 2014. He argued for years that he became performing in self-protection.

Later that month, the New York Times reported that Trump became livid by pardoning other service participants accused or convicted of war crimes, on or round Memorial Day, including Golsteyn and Gallagher. The chronicle brought on a backlash, livid by Memorial Day’s solemn motive of honoring those killed in fight. Trump let the holiday creep with out performing nonetheless acknowledged he became livid by issuing pardons for “two or three” service participants.

“A majority of these squaddies are folks that non-public fought arduous, long,” Trump said the Friday earlier than Memorial Day. “You know, we educate them how one will be large warring parties, and then when they fight sometime, they uncover in actuality handled very unfairly.”

Gallagher’s damage trial started in June. He became accused of diverse crimes accurate thru a 2017 deployment to Mosul, Iraq, including stabbing a wounded Islamic Verbalize prisoner in the neck. While the costs stemmed in segment from accusations made in opposition to him by SEAL teammates, the case fell apart when yet every other SEAL testified beneath immunity that he had killed the prisoner, no longer Gallagher.

The trial already became beneath a cloud after a Navy prosecutor, Cmdr. Christopher Czaplak, secretly emailed protection attorneys and a Navy Times journalist monitoring instrument in an try to query leaks to the public. The Navy removed Czaplak from the case, nonetheless the topic fed concerns aired to the president that the service could perchance no longer take care of the case impartially.

Trump intervened later on, directing the Navy to revoke fulfillment medals that other prosecutors obtained for his or her work on the case.

“Not simplest did they lose the case, they'd stutter with appreciate to recordsdata that can had been obtained from opposing attorneys and for giving immunity in a truly incompetent vogue,” Trump tweeted.

Advocates for Golsteyn highlighted how long the case in opposition to him had stretched on and a 2015 discovering by an administrative board of officers that declined to substantiate the allegation that he had violated the laws of armed warfare. They furthermore properly-known that one in every of the investigators, Army Sgt. 1st Class Keep A. Delacruz, became court docket-martialed in Could well also merely for mendacity about the awards and decorations he had earned.

Within the case of Lorance, advocates careworn that some proof in his case had been withheld, though 9 participants of his platoon furthermore testified in opposition to him at trial.

Trump became lobbied that all three conditions mirrored overly restrictive tips of engagement accurate thru the Obama administration. A space paper ready by advocates and viewed by The Put up said the most efficient formulation to repair it became for Trump to voice correct judgment and backbone and reverse the outcomes.

Trump’s dedication has angered some veterans, militia justice consultants and participants of Congress, whilst they acknowledge that Trump has the energy to act as commander in chief.

“The results of Trump pardoning extinct U.S. service participants convicted by their militia peers of war crimes are manifold and serious,” said Rachel VanLandingham, a retired militia licensed legitimate and militia justice expert at Southwestern Law College in Los Angeles. “It erodes militia commanders’ ability to protect their troops guilty for following orders — equivalent to orders no longer to construct detainees in U.S. custody.”

Nearly a week later, Trump’s intervention furthermore has left a string of unanswered questions.

While Trump restored Gallagher’s wicked, the Navy moved to eject him and three officers who oversaw him — Lt. Cmdr. Robert Breisch, Lt. Jacob Portier and Lt. Thomas MacNeil — from the Navy SEALs, a protection official said.

“The Navy follows the lawful orders of the President,” the assertion said. “We can attain so in case of an divulge to conclude the government evaluate of . . . Gallagher’s legitimate qualification.”

A Navy official, speaking on the location of anonymity attributable to the sensitivity of the topic, said the service coordinated with the White Dwelling earlier than transferring to evaluate whether Gallagher and the opposite SEALs will protect their Tridents. Proceedings in opposition to all four males are on protect, the official said.

It became unclear how the Army will take care of Golsteyn, who remains on active responsibility, and Lorance, who became brushed aside from the service after his conviction.

In Golsteyn’s case, the officer became adorned with a Silver Smartly-known person for valor internal about a days of the killing that brought him beneath scrutiny. That award became later well-liked for an reinforce to the Successfully-known Service Inappropriate — one step down from the Medal of Honor — nonetheless the Army stripped him of both decoration and furthermore took away his Particular Forces tab. Basically based totally totally on questions, the service did no longer designate what this may attain subsequent.

“The Army is imposing the government orders,” said Lt. Col. Emanuel Ortiz, a service spokesman. “We're for the time being figuring out the government actions and processes required to utterly construct the presidential pardons.”

GlobalFoundries Stops All 7nm Development: Opts To Focus on Specialized Processes

GlobalFoundries on Monday announced an important strategy shift. The contract maker of semiconductors decided to cease development of bleeding edge manufacturing technologies and stop all work on its 7LP (7 nm) fabrication processes, which will not be used for any client. Instead, the company will focus on specialized process technologies for clients in emerging high-growth markets. These technologies will initially be based on the company’s 14LPP/12LP platform and will include RF, embedded memory, and low power features. Because of the strategy shift, GF will cut 5% of its staff as well as renegotiate its WSA and IP-related deals with AMD and IBM. In a bid to understand more what is going on, we sat down with Gary Patton, CTO of GlobalFoundries.

7LP Canned Due to Strategy Shift

GlobalFoundries was on track to tape out its clients’ first chips made using its 7 nm process technology in the fourth quarter of this year, but “a few weeks ago” the company decided to take a drastic, strategic turn, says Gary Patton. The CTO stressed that the decision was made not based on technical issues that the company faced, but on a careful consideration of business opportunities the company had with its 7LP platform as well as financial concerns.

It is noteworthy that when GlobalFoundries first announced its 7LP platform in September 2016, it said that it would start risk production of processors using this technology in early 2018 (PR), which means that the first chips should have been taped out before that. When the company detailed the process in June 2018, it said that it expected to start “volume production ramping in the second half of 2018” (PR), which would be close to impossible if customers taped out their first chips only in Q4. Generally, it looks like the company had to adjust its roadmap somewhere along the way, moving the start of high-volume manufacturing (HVM) further into 2019. Whether or not these adjustments had any implications on GlobalFoundries is up to debate. Keep in mind that AMD’s first 7 nm product was designed for TSMC’s CLN7FF from the beginning, so the company did not bet on GF’s 7LP in late 2018 anyway, and no rush with the manufacturing technology was needed for GF’s key customer. Along with the cancellation of the 7LP, GlobalFoundries essentially canned all pathfinding and research operations for 5 nm and 3 nm nodes. The company will continue to work with the IBM Research Alliance (in Albany, NY) until the end of this year, but GlobalFoundries is not sure it makes sense to invest in R&D for ‘bleeding edge’ nodes given that it does not plan to use them any time soon. The manufacturer will continue to cooperate with IMEC, which works on a broader set of technologies that will be useful for GF’s upcoming specialized fabrication processes, but obviously it will refocus its priorities there as well (more on GF’s future process technologies later in this article). So, the key takeaway here is that while the 7LP platform was a bit behind TSMC’s CLN7FF when it comes to HVM – and GlobalFoundries has never been first to market with leading edge bulk manufacturing technologies anyway – there were no issues with the fabrication process itself. Rather there were deeper economic reasons behind the decision.

Economic Reasons Behind the Move As we noted in our article covering GlobalFoundries's new CEO hire earlier this year, former CEO Sanjay Jha was never able to make the company profitable. His key tasks were to increase GlobalFoundries’s sales, streamline the company in general, and ensure that it executes its roadmap. To address the needs of the manufacturer’s traditional key client (AMD) and ensure that his company was competitive against other contract makers of semiconductors, he licensed Samsung Foundry's 14LPP fabrication technology. That strategy worked well. With Sunjay Jha at the helm, GlobalFoundries has managed to land a variety of new customers and increase its sales of semiconductor wafers from approximately $4.121 billion in 2013 to $6.176 billion in 2017. Besides, the foundry’s leading-edge Fab 8, which has been processing wafers using exclusively 14LPP process technology for well over 1.5 years now, is running at full capacity.

To ensure that GlobalFoundries remains competitive against Samsung Foundry and TSMC in the long run, Sunjay Jha obtained IP and development teams from IBM (along with two fabs and a lot of obligations), and poured in billions of dollars in development of the 7LP fabrication technology platform. The latter would include three generations of manufacturing processes and, possibly, a custom high-performance technology available exclusively to IBM. While everything appeared to proceed smoothly with the 1st Gen 7 nm process (DUV only), the 2nd Gen 7 nm process (with EUV used for non-critical layers, such as padding) still needed some additional development investments, and the 3rd Gen 7 nm (with intensive usage of EUV) required even more money for development and further could require installation of additional EUV equipment. Meanwhile, there were two things to consider. First. If GlobalFoundries kicks off production using the 1st Gen 7 nm fabrication process, it would have needed to cure all of its teething troubles and offer its clients a roadmap forward. The latter would have included 2nd Gen and 3rd Gen 7 nm, but nothing stops there. Customers would have asked for 5 nm and then for 3 nm nodes. Meanwhile, you cannot tell your clients that you are packing up after a certain node and then hope that this node will be a success (the same is true for DUV-only 1st Gen 7 nm). Second. Development of leading-edge process technologies is extremely expensive. Every new node requires billions of dollars in investments. Those costs are eventually amortized over each chip the company makes, so to keep increasing R&D costs from driving up chip prices, foundries need to produce more chips. To make more chips, they need to either run multiple fabs that use the same process technology (these are going to cost $10+ billion in the EUV era), or build giant fabs that process a gargantuan number of wafers (these are going to cost $20+ billion in the EUV era). Meanwhile, GlobalFoundries has only one leading-edge fab featuring capacity of 60,000 wafer starts per month. As a result, either GlobalFoundries has to pass these R&D costs on to the finite number of wafers it processes – and become uncompetitive against rivals in the process – or eat the costs with reduced profitability.

Meanwhile, having spent well over $20 billion on GlobalFoundries over the last 10 years, Mubadala, the owner of the company, is not inclined to lose more money or invest tens of billions in the hopes of becoming profitable one day. The investor wants GlobalFoundries to stop bleeding and start generating profits. “The culture of , the ones I’ve been involved with, was about accumulating assets and then just maintaining it,” said Mubadala CEO Khaldoon Al Mubarak in an interview with Bloomberg earlier this year. “The shift that has happened over the last couple of years, that I’ve tried to push at Mubadala today, is a monetization strategy that makes sense, not with a view to cash out but with a view to reinvest.” Gary Patton admits that GlobalFoundries never planned to be a leading producer of 7-nm chips in terms of volume. Furthermore, the company has been seeing increasing adoption of its 14LPP/12LP technologies by designers of various emerging devices, keeping Fab 8 busy and leaving fewer step-and-scan systems for 7LP products. Without another big fab, it would be impossible to make any new leading-edge process technology competitive against Samsung and TSMC due to aforementioned scale reasons. Meanwhile, building a new fab (or even expanding the Fab 8 with another clean room module, which is something that GF considered several years ago) and creating another node or two would require another $10 – $15 billion from Mubadala, which is not inclined to invest just now. As a result, the GlobalFoundries has decided to switch entirely to specialized process technologies for emerging high-growth markets. This strategic shift enables it to reduce spending on R&D, slowdown procurement of new equipment, reduce its workforce by 5% (most of which will be in Malta), and potentially avoid direct competition against the aforementioned contract makers of semiconductors.

By inspecting competitor names, you are going to get intelligence on what folks like (and usually do not like) in regard to their giving, enabling you to definitely undoubtedly adapt your supply correctly. Added, seeking at competitor mentions is unquestionably a possibility to train oneself relating to the intense landscape to ascertain what differentiates your model. These conclusions may well aid you locate out each and every issue you want to emphasize within your messaging to further strain seasoned potential customers and earnings. Inspecting your competitiveness may have other surprising benefits, as a single specific firm uncovered out. Shut.io, a earnings dialogue software, not way too extended again shut $585 in month-to-month recurring income circulation from one particular tweet. A single inside their opponents, RelateIQ, was attained by Salesforce, which released about RelateIQ cancelling a complete whole lot of contracts with their intercontinental buyers. All around.io regarded this at the moment getting a prospect and monitored tweets mentioning the RelateIQ boundaries. Currently being an illustration, their data engineer identified and responded to this tweet by Pablo: Even Pablo discovered the benefit of Shut to.io’s social listening: To view these discussions, recognized up alerts along with your picked social networking inspecting resource to seize all mentions through the web and social. To get started on with, it really is valuable to view “[competitor name] + different,” which can make mentions from folks seeking for the solution you source. Significantly far better but, get incredible specific. See how Aircall, a web cellphone approach remedy, proven their alerts up making use of Indicate (total disclosure: I run for this enterprise!): If you happen to be not producing usage of a media examining device, you can set aside an advanced Examine in Twitter, too as in some scenarios filter by sentiment or irrespective of whether the tweet could be a concern: One more technique to creating competent potential clients with social listening is often to check group troubles or phrases that depict an ache situation or troubles you come about to get seeking to elucidate. Breaz.io, a industry that connects net builders along with the outstanding possibilities in tech businesses during Europe, experimented with their hand at this strategy. The best consequence? By examining the dilemma their foreseeable future customers want to make clear, Breaz increased their information response demand from customers by 5x. Entrance, a joint e mail consumer, recruited their 1st beta conclude end users making use of this approach at the same time. They designed an inventory of search phrases and phrases and phrases they imagined gentlemen and ladies would use to talk/complain/ask about electronic mail customers on Twitter (i.e. tweets manufactured up of: “recommend + e-mail + client”). Ahead of extended before long soon after these search phrases and phrases and phrases made related tweets, they started off attaining out. The idea final result was a median of fifteen new accredited beta subscribers for every seven times. Other beneficial “side effects” from your approach for Entrance included: And lots of these “side effects” have been achieved in just 45 minutes daily. When picking which crucial phrases for examining your customers’ ache particulars, give Google Developments a endeavor. With Google Developments, mobile phone reply Aircall identified that aged organization situations referring to VOIP cellphone strategies have been phasing out: Geared up using this certain details, they did somewhat research expression examine and concluded up tapping into a very assorted industry spot: organizations selecting staff by means of a diffusion of nations. These organizations essential a solution for conversing internationally, and should not have deemed an online based mostly cellphone strategy. From time to time almost certainly in essence essentially the most valuable interactions may well be developed by just currently being plugged into tendencies and appropriate discussions along with your sector. Twitter chats, as an example, is often a wonderful getaway location to fulfill gentlemen and ladies whose pursuits pertain throughout the difficulties your assist or resolution solves. Constructive, you come about to get not very likely to make a challenging sale or concern anyone ought to they would like a demo when collaborating in these abilities, however, you will make useful connections. For one particular point selling and advertising and marketing and advertising and marketing related, I vastly recommend checks #bufferchat, #insiderchat and #semrushchat. Currently being a reward, there exists generally a difficulty in these chats requesting helpful units and organizations. Assuming that you incorporate individuals, it really is entirely excellent to namedrop your very own layout. At Amount out, we’re privileged satisfactory to from time to time get described in many Twitter chats (even varieties we've got certainly not anytime examine of). When guys and girls suggesting us like an instrument, it often provides about at least a number of new individuals signing up. Suitable soon after signing up for inside of a number of moments and at this time acquiring a useful contributor, you could even be questioned for being a client, which is a superb approach to generate deemed administration and - you guessed it - create possible buyers. Social listening lets you decide the conversations your viewers is getting in order that you can uncover a lot more with reference to their troubles and targets. It delivers you the prospect to give them with better support. Greatest of all, it provides a shortcut appropriate right into a prosperity of folks that give the circumstance your solution or support solves. Make the most of away from it! By incorporating social listening into your social internet sites promoting method, you'll be able to streamline your messaging and possess every single one certain man or woman close to the workers supporting with information gen - group, articles or blog posts components, aid and in excess of and earlier mentioned.

Monthly likes/dislikes

❣️ Light On Me - this show captured my heart and owns everything that I am dsjfhkd 😭 I love everything from the production quality to the pacing and the acting - all the characters are adorable and don’t even get me started on Shinwoo dhfjkdl 🥺 One of the best korean bls so far for sure. 

❣️ The Best Story - This really took me by surprise because I never expected a show like this to happen, let alone for it to be so well done. I’m still trying to figure out the purpose of this as a project lol bc it’s kind of random but either way I really liked it! The acting was good & War was killing it as always👌🏻 I just wish it didn’t have such a cliffhanger ending. But maybe there’s more to come... 

❣️ Don’t Say No Special ep - I really liked it and it made me super excited for Don’t Say No!!! 💕

👎🏻 Y-Destiny - I have to put it on this list again because the finale was a crime jkddsdf. It was a huge cringefest and I feel very bad for the actors being put through this..... It was pretty bad.
