  • IMHO long ago pacing was better. You had 20-24 episodes with a pause mid season. Airing date would start in october and ends in april/may or something like that. You didn’t have to wait more than 8 months to get next season.

    Nowadays what would be ideal in my point of view would be :

    • 8 to 12 episodes to allow for more development
    • release each weeks and not all at once (thankfully a lot of network still do that) so you can reflect and discuss about episodes. It makes tv shows more memorable. Back then it was nice when lost aired each week and you had plenty of theories flying around!
    • pretend season 1 and 2 are actually season 1 part 1 and 2 if it doesn’t ends with first part. Release second part something like 3-4 months instead of at best a year later.
    • if show works and network is up to another season decide it before part 1 ends so there is a 10–12 months maximum wait after part 2 ends.

    Yes basically not a lot different as before!
    But Sadly it’s unlikely as doing small season minimize risks if shows is not working.



  • IMHO you need to use adb to force install older version. Something like :
    adb install -r -d myapp.apk

    Look it up! It should be possible to use termux on phone and connect wirelessly to your own phone to access adb. Or you have to use another device to connect to your phone.

    Of course simpler solution is being able to backup settings and data, uninstall then install older version and restore data.



  • Glad I started watching this. I tried because it was tagged as sci-fi but didn’t really look like it and I was dubious about it being something I would enjoy. Yet I really dig the mistery around second Kowloon and it’s inhabitants. I wonder what would really happen to “real” people eating Kowloon foods.

    I checked manga and it has not ended. So anime won’t be either when current season ends. Hope it won’t be a let down and that they will adapt all of it. 🤞












  • Just a random thought, if there is a need for privacy wouldn’t it be possible to create public / private encryption key for users so messages can be encrypted and exchanged.

    This way what would be public is that there’s an exchange but nobody would be able to know what was said. It would make it at least message content private.

    To make it a step further could exchange between servers also use it to encrypt which users exchange private message. I am thinking it could make it fully private then. Only sender and receiver servers could know which users were private messaging.


  • Best explanation was in Fargate tv shows.

    When MC find himself to other side of galaxy in alien spaceships with prisoners escaping he is injected by a little icon robot with nanobot (or something like that) enabling him to understand any language.
    Just before he is injected other characters are speaking alien and you don’t understand them and gradually (but in a matter of 15/30 secs) after injection you start to hear aliens speaking English. I believe they even specifically speak about the technology.

    Look at Species of Farscape #8 – Translator Microbes it is explained better and there is a short video. Too bad you don’t see him injected/shot but you got alien explaining how it works.
