yes very much so also the visual novels have the adult scenes in them.

Haha, I find it funny that you point out the hentai scenes. I'll take a look at both Tsukihime and F/S N visual novels then.

Is this this one? http://myanimelist.net/manga/3649/Fate/zero

The F/S N manga seems to be still publishing?

ah the darkside of the interwebs look more like a sunny pasture to me now.

The worst page I ever saw was an entry on Encyclopedia Dramatica. After scrolling 3/4 through the post, I wanted to puke, bleach my eyes and rock myself to and fro while wishing I never saw the dark side of humanity.

If that was the worst I saw, I cannot fathom the darkest depths of the series of tubes. *shivers*

I watched Wonderful Days. It's a Korean anime with great CGI and shares many themes with cyberpunk anime such as Appleseed: Ex Machina and others. It deserves its own spotlight since it has a distinct style that sets it apart from other popular CGI movies. However, that's where the compliments end. The characters are nothing to write about and will be forgotten by the end. I can't help but mention that the distinct Korean taste for tragedy is splattered together onto a canvas and summed up with some opera singining by the producers while they do a little dance and then shout "Voila! Here's our conclusion", while you stand there amazed at how awfully predictable the plot (when there's not much substance to begin with) is and mouth agape at how anime concludes itself as an action anime meant for the theaters. No originality, no nothing.

This anime iis just a showcase for CGI and cumulonimbus clouds with a cyberpunk theme and an absolutely random love triangle mixed in for good measure. At least it shows the power of Korean animation studios (Tin House in this case)...

I was ready to give this anime a must watch series but it collapsed half way through.

6/10

Note: I laughed at the absurdity of me watching a one minute long scene where all the characters are moving in slow motion with tears coming out of their eyes while floating in zero gravity and they're all looking at each other in amazement/pain while an opera singer's voice projects as background music.

done Berserk ... i think, the full show is 25 episodes right?

Awesome show. Although im not sure where the first episode fits in...

Read the manga. It's still an ongoing story. That's why you might have felt that the ending left way too many loose ends.

The anime only covers volume 3 to 13 out of the 35 volumes that have currently been published. It's a great read.

Watched CENCOROLL and I was expecting a full length movie to be honest yet I enjoyed it despite being short. You get thrown right into the action from the start :)

It oddly reminded me of FLCL, pretty impressive the way Cenco transforms into pretty much anything (as well eating junk all the time :p) and major props to Atsuya Uki for animating/directing it on his own (Y)

Radish?

Man what the hell you guys do as for job, I mean I work 8 hour/day and I still don't have enough time to watch maybe couple of episodes per day (that's a big maybe).

College student (engineering major, double minoring as well).

6 hours sleep + 9 hours of activity and classes + 2 hour workout + 2 hour homework/study = 5 hours of doing anything I want (which includes more studying if I need it).

I love having a spread apart schedule.

Junior year. (3/4). However, I'm much younger than everyone else in my year.

Anyways, let's get back on topic.

Hey, Radish, you had an awesome chart on your blog:

    • Microsoft releases Visual Studio Code 1.124 with smarter autonomous AI agents

      By zikalify · Posted

      Microsoft releases Visual Studio Code 1.124 with smarter autonomous AI agents by Paul Hill Microsoft has just released Visual Studio Code 1.124 with a focus on faster agent workflows and improved agent autonomy. Microsoft outlined the following features as the key items in this update: Autopilot: Autopilot, enabled by default, is now smarter to determine when a task is truly done. Background sessions: Quickly send a request in the background and keep composing the next session. Session navigation: Search, jump, and step through agent sessions with the keyboard. Browser history: Revisit and search pages you've already opened in the integrated browser. With VS Code 1.124, Microsoft has enabled Autopilot by default. For those that don’t know, Autopilot is a chat permission level that you can pick to give agents permission to take initiative and act autonomously, without needing explicit user approval for each action. Also related to Autopilot, Microsoft introduced Advanced Autopilot, which changes how Autopilot decides when to keep iterating and when to finish. This helps you get more complete results without manually monitoring loops. This feature works using a small utility model that reads a transcript of the chat and decides when the task is done. Another new feature in 1.124 is the Agents window, which lets you easily explore, iterate on, and review agent sessions across projects and machines. Previously, starting a new agent session meant waiting for it to load before you could compose the next one. With this update, sessions can be requested in the background. This VS Code update also brings session navigation updates to switch between them more quickly. The update also lets you reload or reopen the Agents window so that it no longer loses your layout, so you will land back where you left off. If you use the integrated browser in VS Code, you will notice that it now retains the history of visited pages. Suggestions will now show when typing in the URL bar and can be managed by using Ctrl+H within a browser tab. The browser now also lets you customize the toolbar more; just right-click on the toolbar area to the right of the URL input. Finally, the browser has faster agentic text entry. Another improvement is experimental enterprise-managed Copilot plugin policies that allow admins to centrally control which chat plugins and plugin marketplaces are available to developers. If you have VS Code installed, 1.124 should install automatically, or you'll get a prompt. If you don't have it installed, get it here.

      Ray-Tracing is the Radeon RX 9070 XT's biggest weakness. The Radeon RX 9070 XT might not be able to match in the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti in ray-tracing, but it can beat the GeForce RTX 5070, which is around the same price.

      I am also on latest experimental with possible insider flags on and aiming in settings for 26h1.. Also see just this wasted space. I do love "movable" small taskbar though but would love more if it had date next to it now just time.

      Does not make it more readable for me though. The majority of your screenshot is just pitch black.
