yeah makes it perfect for reading Dujinshi

Which monitor is it? I spoiled myself by getting a 17'' 1920x1200 laptop earlier last year and can't stand any lower resolution. :p

That promo makes me realize how creepy things can get. This is what I learnt from the promo: BLOOMERS! GIRLS WITH BIG GUNS! YAAAAY! PROPELLERS!

Nothing's creepier than trying to westernize an oriental art. It's like western power yoga.

Currently watching this at the moment. Hard to come by anime like Over Drive, it's good so far :D

Radish?

:D It's already on my playlist. It's the next thing I'm watching after finishing the xxxholic OVA.

I have Over Drive, Nasu and a few other sports anime lined up for me to read and watch before I run my half marathons this coming spring. :D

Cool, recommend me some sports anime? :) I've got some in my MAL lined up, like Hajime no Ippo and Slam Dunk.

Radish™

I suggest reading Slam Dunk if you don't like the dated animation. You have basically named all the good sports anime right there. ALL the gems of the sports sub genre are manga. I would recommend Touch, H2 and Ping Pong (amazing Seinen manga).

The rest of the sub genre is full of drama and teenage conflicts. If you do think that's your cup of tea, then check out D-ash.

I'm actually going to be watching Yu Yu Hakusho (the arc in which Yusuke goes under Genkai's training) and GTO (and prequels when Eikichi was a badass delinquent) too for motivation since there isn't any other anime or manga that has that tone. I have yet to come across another anime or manga that can beat Over Drive when it comes to sports.

The manga is written by the same author of Black and White, which led to the visual masterpiece, Tekkon Kinkreet.

Might have a look-see then as I loved watching Tekkonkinkreet on the big screen.

Yeah but finding wallpapers for isn't so great so i end up using dujin pages and photobook pictures.

Have you checked out animepaper.net? It's the best user made wallpaper resource. You have to be a contributor to its forums to download though.

Here's where I get my wallpapers. >:D

NSFW: http://nik.bot.nu/ (There's plenty of ecchi/hentai wallpaper)

It scrapes 4chan wallpapers and other resources that I never figured out. You can search by resolution size, keyword and almost every other method out there. I hope it's useful.

Soul Eater is quite possibly the best Shounen anime series I've come across since Eureka Seven. Think of Bleach (demon souls, crazy swords) and every successful aspect of a shounen series from curvacious women to slapstick comedy to cat girls. The high production quality and bland J-pop/rock and attempt at English/Japanese slang scream high quality shounen.

It's a must watch for all you Bleach watchers and readers!

it's not like that most of the time but it does remind me of yee old geocities sites that had nothing but gifs on them.

They could just leave the background wallpaper as black or white instead of stars. :p

      I'm not aware of this issue, but to help the other guys.  What version of Android are you using? Did you try a different browser? To see if Edge is the issue here.

      I agree when are you going to read this (really poor BTW) article? Here is a better article so you actually know what is going on and answers questions you had in other comments --> https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2026/05/speed-boosting-low-latency-profile-is-one-of-the-improvements-coming-to-windows-11/ It is unclear if one will be able to disable the new profile at this point but I am not seeing any reason why one would.
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By Snake Doc · Posted

      I disagree; they come off very "bitchy" and "whiny". Make a great product and combine that with a great price (free) and people will come over to your side. Or build it and they will come as they say. Constantly trying to get attention by complaining all the time, will turn people off to your product.
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By +Eternal Tempest · Posted

      It use to be a nightmare, with LibreOffice supporting a newer draft ODF standard by default, and Microsoft Office supporting the older non-draft standard. Now that they both support the same version of ODF, they should be interoperable.
    • Brave Browser 1.91.171

      By Copernic · Posted

      Brave Browser 1.91.171 by Razvan Serea Brave Browser is a lightning-fast, secure web browser that stands out from the competition with its focus on privacy, security, and speed. With features like HTTPS Everywhere and built-in tracker blocking, Brave keeps your online activities safe from prying eyes. Brave is one of the safest browsers on the market today. It blocks third-party data storage. It protects from browser fingerprinting. And it does all this by default. Speed - Brave is built on Chromium, the same technology that powers Google Chrome, and is optimized for speed, providing a fast and responsive browsing experience. Brave Browser also features Brave Rewards, a system that rewards users with Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) for viewing opt-in ads. This innovative system provides an alternative revenue model for content creators and a way to support the Brave community. SlimBrave Neo takes all the good things about Brave and makes them even better by keeping everything clean, light, and privacy-focused. It removes the extra clutter, turns off features you might not need, and cuts down on anything that could slow you down or collect unnecessary data. Because it relies on simple settings and policies instead of modifying the browser itself, you still get full Brave compatibility—just in a smoother, lighter, and more privacy-friendly package. Brave Browser 1.91.171 changelog: General Fixed Cardano not being disabled on upgrade to Brave Origin. Upgraded Chromium to 149.0.7827.103. Origin Removed “Survey Panelist” setting from brave://settings/privacy. Fixed P3A and usage ping under brave://settings/privacy being displayed on first launch on Linux. Upgraded Chromium to 149.0.7827.103.
