  • For IOS devices, by default has “fixed” randomized MAC per network, i.e. each Wireless network you join sees a different MAC, but they’ll stay the same even if you leave and re-join (or even delete and re-add). So, it should not hamper MAC filtering since your AP will see the same MAC from the same device, unless you’re running more elaborate setups like multiple APs (I don’t know how IOS treats that).

    This can be changed on a per-network basis in any case, so it is possible to turn it off on the device just for your home network.



  • Don’t you hate it when the mission you think you’re acing turns out to be an escort mission.

    Somebody on another site said it nicely Alphonse Elric turned Barry the chopper. Personally she reminded me of Kaiju No.8, who also has the same theme.

    You know it is getting serious in an MMO when there’s only a few players on the field and there is lag.

    Game threw the party into scenario EX with a belated announcement, to Sanraku’s annoyance.

    We are reminded that Sunraku is a gamer at heart. He acknoledged the lag’s significance, analyzed the condition for Ctarnidd’s appearance, and treated Araba as an event flag. However, I think (hope) his worries about whether bringing Emul along was the correct decision went beyond treating her as a essential event NPC.

    I wonder how forced unconsciousness in this VRMMO was done. It seemed like Sunraku really passed out rather than the screen just blacking out.

    Sunraku is separated from other party members and there is a 7 day time limit. The city do have save zones so it does not have to be a marathon run.

    Fish man: Hey birdian! Sunraku: No you misunderstand…

    We got a rare mention of another kusoge Sunraku played. It was fun to hear him say “sometimes the best solution is not to fight.” when we see him eager to fight most of the time.

    I don’t know what to feel for the seiyuu of that mermaid, got paid for a job but your only line was just hissing.

    So now the inverted city is introduced and we know why the key visual was drawn that way.

    A pretty good start to a new quest. Ctarnidd CG stood out a bit but wasn’t bad. The animation studio deserves praise for keeping quality up.



  • The phrase “newlywed couple” came across my mind several times watching it, and Kaoruko’s husband made a similar observation, though Kizuhiro denies it.

    But first let’s go back a bit and not forget the power of anime:

    Not to mention the power of obento as well.

    The Orient Express themed French restaurant seemed pretty nice. Marie had a lovely reaction to the foie gras steak, barely contain her scream (Kazuhiho: I told you so).

    Both Marie and Kazuhiho’s life changed when she came to Japan, and both gained courage to broaden their relationships with people. I liked it when they naturally hold hands. Such a sweet episode.


  • You don’t actually “buy” domain names. You basically rent them from a registrar. “expired” meant someone forgot to pay rent / renew the lease so control of the name goes back to the registrar. They can just delete it after some grace period but domain names that has traffic going to them has value so they are usually put up for auction by the registrar nowadays, which is what you see here.



  • Need to input an additional passcode which is unnecessary when using a cash card, and still need to input the PIN. It is remembering 1 more thing in exchange of carrying the card.

    Not as insecure as I first thought as just scanning your face and getting authenticated, nor as convenient as that would be.

    I don’t see it getting so popular that it replaces cash cards. There is not a huge advantage to the user so banks probably cannot convince that many people to give up their biometric data for this service.










  • Seems like Köinzell got his purpose in life back.

    Fargo had one job: kill a sound-asleep demihuman. But he managed to get sidetracked by his hatred of all of them and started killing the wrong ones AND got unmasked AND got witnessed.

    He put up such a good face before though that no one believed Peepi that Köinzell was not the bad guy there. And now Octopus Head will go after Köinzell for that.

    I hope at least Effi will believe and not go “Köinzell killed my parents”? We just finished that arc from Aht.
