Steam downloading stuff is part WTF and part rage today.It works fine if I leave the DL uncapped, but acts up the moment I cap the speed (because I want to do other stuff on the internet while it downloads). Basically the speed tanks to zero every couple of minutes before gradually going back up to the maximum, where it stays for a bit and then tanks to zero again.

Hey, was the moon fucking huge about five hours ago for anybody else? It might have been the largest daytime moon I've ever seen.

I'd tell you, but we don't actually get sky around here, just cloud cover and snow.

I think I've got myself quite a nice start here. It's mass human sacrifice, but they'll be happy, undead sacrifices afterwards!

Anyway, we should probably stop distracting the WTFs with sensible talk about Apotheosis.

Well, I'm on the post you've made on the page 7. In some cases, I too was surprised at the amount of followers certain gods gained in one turn (this count as "WTF moment", so I'm still on topic! ), but it is very entertaining read nonetheless or maybe exactly because of it. Well, back to reading.

On topic about cartoons: here in EU, we got our fair share of older French/Czechoslovakian/Polish cartoons in the 80s/90s.

I enjoyed them all as a kid.
When I look at them these days though, it feels like in some cases acid was involved when they were making them. Oh the sweet innocence of the child's mind.

Cartoon = two-dimensional images set to motion and sound = anime. There are plenty of western cartoons that aren't meant for kids, either, the animated format just gets a bad rap in the US. The only difference between western cartoons and anime is stylistic choices, and one being predominantly from Japan.

Meh, even if you copy the style (most animators for Japanese studios are Korean these days) it's still not the same, since the storytelling and symbolics come from the underlying culture it's made in. Almost any series you take can be recognized by it's use of cultural references and tropes, unless you rewrite the whole story to get rid of them (I'm looking at you, Keith Giffen!).

Bad troll, you should have said that Avatar is the best anime..

Or that Kimba the White Lion is essentially a rip-off Lion King.

Or that Kimba the White Lion is essentially a rip-off Lion King. 

Other way around, actually.

[Sinistar]

That's the joke, silly.

Thank you, Yahoo News, for some hard hitting journalism.

Maybe next time they should choose one language and stick with it when writing the article's title.

[My Name is Immaterial]

Google translate fail or actually smashing one's face into one's keyboard?

[Bouchart]

The original source is from the AFP, which is a French news service.

The odd thing is that the article itself is translated properly, but they couldn't be bothered to double check the title.
