    Agreed.

    Also to point out that Anime itself doesn’t really help its own cause here. Every show, even the decent ones, will have some weirdly out-of-the-blue softcore porn scene or outrageous outfit on an underaged high school student with oversized proportions, which does nothing to bring the story further, before they go back to the best fight scene you’ve seen this decade.


  • Not much more you can do than explain to them clearly why you think it’s wrong from the perspective of both sides, whilst always reiterating they you will continue to love and support her. You need to explain why this man might be interested in her due to her age, and also that he may have enough experience in life to effectively lie and manipulate without her realising. At best you should get someone she trusts well to also explain this, preferably an adult outside of your household.

    You can look into counselling, but only if she is willing.

    I would not directly intervene until you feel it could become an unsafe situation. I would also not be seen as promoting the relationship either until you are also clear this person.





  • Check out linsoul if you are in the EU or massdrop if you are in the US.

    There are a huge amount of basic, low cost earphone manufacturers. The budget audiophile community can also provide more targeted help if needed, just be sure to include more info like price range, how you plan to use the headphones and what quality you expect, to get more helpful advice.

    I’m currently using a €25 set which have almost identical sounds quality to my €200 headphones in many situations.

    *Edited because apparently I can’t spell…


  • Regulations only work in improving the well-being of the single market if the local producers can remain competitive after implementation. There are a small number of regulations in the EU which have damaged local manufacturers without significant improvement in quality of life e.g the medical device regulation. I do not know enough about the ai regulation to understand if it is for for purpose or not however.

    Given the “free for all” other countries appear to be giving their AI systems, the EU may look to re-consider the ai regulation’s implementation.


  • We can get back on topic :) Green hydrogen still doesn’t make sense compared to direct use of energy, except in some cases (steel production and long haul flights are normally quoted as these use cases)

    Hydrogen requires 40 kWh of electricity to produce 1 kg (equivalent to ~ 29 kWh). So you have lost around 30% just at production. Then you need to compress and cool is significantly to transport, which requires again significant energy and then you need to actually move it which is again energy intensive.

    It would be far more efficient to simply use some areas where renewables can be built out in significant proportion and then transport the (e.g.) electricity directly to the exchange via HVDC cables where it is needed. And where hydrogen is still viable, it can be electrolysed closer to the use case.
