The Colonel posted:it's cool. it's worth both watching and reading because the manga and anime both feature stuff the other doesn't have. there's an episode of the anime where they find a box of beer bottles and get drunk and there's a chapter of the manga where they find a bunch of blunts and get high. that's wild because it feels like smoking weed is like, the ultimate sin in Japan. I've legitimately seen more manga with characters shooting up heroin

they get away with it in both by not explicitly stating what they're drinking or smoking the author of girls last tour definitely doesnt strike me as the kind of person to like. care. so it's not a huge surprise i don't think, weed fear over there feels like a largely performative old man thing these days

the best instance of a japanese author using weed in a story and not understanding it was nasu writing an entire kara no kyoukai story about a guy injecting someone with super weed and going "this is 10x stronger than regular marijuana." and then nasu admitting years later he had no idea how drugs worked

i mean it's hard to tell how long his sentence was because all public knowledge about his life ends right at him getting incarcerated. it's still illegal but it's been ten years since then and public perception and understanding has shifted to a degree, it's just the same problem as any other one of these things where getting old ldp politicians to budge can start to feel kind of sisyphean and there are bigger changes to law people are already pushing for

I should get Morrowind up and running on my Steam Deck. I tried following a guide to get OpenMW set up, but ran into persistent crashes on startup. Odd since the installation seemed to go smoothly. I didn't really troubleshoot it much, so I could probably get it working at some point.

Sounded like it was a pain in the rear end but also incredibly worth the hassle. These days I'm sure there's better guides on how to do that on the Deck specifically.

Last night in Kingdom Come: Deliverance: I went to the bathhouse with a local lord who got extremely drunk and told me to fetch a bottle of wine and a bouquet of flowers from town. So I did so while in my smallclothes. Then I returned and Lord Capon was being drowned by a jealous lover, but he was too shitfaced to actually get mad about it. I also learned that most of the nobility is illiterate. Great time really.

Haptic triggers were cool until I played RE8 mercenaries mode where one of the stages was sped up but the haptics were still set at the normal game speed. Had to look up a tutorial just to find out the controller physically wasn't letting me fire as fast as I was supposed to be able to.
