    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    I know what you mean. I’m actually dreading this year’s sale, as I’m going to have to use that unnavigable mess of a site. I might even give up before I get to the checkout screen. Still, I’ll save money, so silver lining?

    Got mine from AoL, checked the discs on day 1, and I just rechecked disc 2 now, and it works fine on my Panasonic player.

    Crunchyroll and the use of AI in anime subtitles

    No surprise to see the swapoga account nixed. For a moment I thought this site had been Musked.

    If we're talking personal experiences... In 2014, I had reason to call on the services of the NHS for a protracted period of time, from GP all the way to hospital, a process that lasted more than three years. Back then, the NHS still worked, waiting lists were short, and I was treated by a...

    If you're talking mass deportation and you don't have the infrastructure ready for it, that means internment camps. It will be like the asylum seeker detention backlog in the UK times 1000. Stuff will spiral out of control real quick in situations like that, and then the UN will be throwing out...

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    They’re trying to match Amazon, who since they became a veritable monopoly, have been taking the piss with their free postage thresholds and P&P costs for non-Prime subscribers for ages now. Most media retailers charge £1.99 for sending out post, and lower free postage thresholds (£20), and one...

    Forum word filter discourse

    I hate the c-word. It's vulgar, offensive, and sounds very close to the word 'couch', and you can see how JD Vance got confused. How many c-words are there?

    Had a look at my copy, and there is no skip in episode 129. You either have a dodgy disc, or a player incompatibility. But episode 133 does have a car door slam followed by a black screen, so that does look like storytelling rather than error.

    When it comes to DVD players, all can play Dolby Digital, but not all can play DTS. It shouldn’t be an issue with Blu-ray players though.

    Since Amazon only really price-match and rarely do sales, you'll find these at the same price at Zavvi, which works out cheaper if you don't have Prime. And I'm not looking for another £27.01 of stuff just to get past the free shipping threshhold.

    If AI wipes out the white collar job sector the way they tell us it will, a UBI may be the only way that human civilisation as we know it will survive; the first step on the road to a Star Trek utopia.
