One that I haven't seen mentioned yet is the finale of AnoHana. The writers did a great job pulling the 10-years-before and current day storylines together, and then the little hide-and-seek game capping off the story just absolutely destroyed me.

    Only the first season of Clannad? I know theres some great parts of S1, but

    After Story spoiler"Sanae-san said the only places I can cry are in the toilet and in daddy's arms"
    absolutely destroys me every time - I'm welling up just typing it out lol. There's plenty of other great scenes in S2 that at least put it on-par with S1 IMO.

    Not the OP and I can only speak for myself, but my daily driver is a rig I built 9 years ago with a motherboard that released 10 years ago without a TPM and it's running just fine. Processors have advanced so little in the past decade that my top-of-the-line 8c16t 6th gen i7 just powers through whatever I give it without worries. Upgrading the motherboard to a comparable one now means a new CPU and new RAM, and thats just not viable in the current climate. Once things do settle down and I build a new one, I'll be moving over to linux anyway, W11 is an active security hazard that I'd rather not deal with, moreso than trying to run W10 after updates ended IMO.

    If it wasn't for this article, I wouldn't have known there was three victims that day. I can see why the media kept quiet on it though, it would break the narrative that the attack was purely antisemitic, rather than admit that the NHS is at breaking-point and can't deal with people like the attacker.

    That will happen either way, but if that's what it takes to stop Trump getting what he wants AND stop the rest of the world becoming the new Syria / Iraq then yes, the manchild needs to be placated with whatever words might work.

    Trump is a cunt for publicly airing messages sent to him in confidence. Everyone knows about his ego and what he thinks of brown people. Attempting to placate him in private to stop the first act of World War 3 is a reasonable action, and I refuse to dogpile on any world leader for trying their best to deal with that toddler.

    If we had capable leadership, I'd absolutely agree with you. Evidence is telling me that's just not happening, and not going to happen any time soon, though. Instead, it's far more likely any data they do get will be "anonymised", bundled up and sold off to a company the person making the decision has a large stake in, if not by this government than by the next.

    No idea why would would be downvoted without a comment, though. It might be wishful thinking, but your commentary is legitimate.
