  • Now that you point it out, I can see that that may be what they were saying.

  • apply to ten categories of products that are currently covered by ecodesign requirements: smartphones and tablets, bicycles (including e-bikes), washing machines, dryers, dishwashers, fridges, displays, welding equipment, vacuum cleaners and servers.

  • Do you know the difference between EU and Europe?

    The EU didn't even exist yet during most of those. And where it does it's still something different.

  • What does that mean for modularity and support?

    Microkernel only refers to the core, right? Is the idea that it can make inbound guarantees on drivers and firmware? Does it not still depend on the extensions being secure even if your micro kernel is?

  • Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory and Dirty Bomb.

    Great multi-player class- and objective-focused team shooters with great movement, respawn wave timer and reviving and healing. ET was very popular and has always been free. (etlegacy.com) Dirty Bomb is free to play and found only moderate success, had IMO bad monetization attempts, and was ultimately put into passive mode not being developed or maintained further, with monetization removed.

    W:ET as a moddable quake game had a vibrant modding, server hosting, esport, and community scene.

  • In IIHS’ latest tests of car headlight systems, fewer than half (43%) earned a good rating. [...] “Vehicles that earn a good rating for visibility in our tests have 23% fewer nighttime pedestrian crashes than those that rate poor.”

    That's a lot of room for improvement without new technology.

  • I can second Ascendance of a Bookworm that has been mentioned. It's a very good series.

    Escaflowne was mentioned too, which I found great back when I watched it, but it's been too long for me to remember. I want to rewatch it at some point. (Like I did with The Twelve Kingdoms which I found much less good today than back when I first watched it.)

    I'll list a few more and add my rating assessment (ranking as exceptional, great, very good, good, decent, average, bad, …). I ended up going through the anidb isekai category, so I guess these are all I know of, and it's quite a lot of them considering it feels - as you describe it - like all or most isekai end up with lewd harem fantasies. As for the reason, I think it is primarily business people / production management producing for easy baits and the most generic middle audience - young males. Because of the success of isekais they produce more, and end up with the standard tropes of lewd, harem, and over powered, which very often ruins it. But as the following list shows, it's not always like that - even for an over-saturated filled category like isekai.


    Handyman Saitou in Another World is another very good one that's not harem. Great comedy.

    Grimgar: Ashes and Illusions is very different and very good.

    The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady is very good until the ending, where it falls short and forces itself into something bad. The early and mid of the series is great though, with exceptional visuals and vibrancy.

    I'm the Villainess, So I'm Taming the Final Boss is good. (Paired romance.)

    In the Land of Leadale is good. Female protagonist.

    Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear is simple but heartwarming, overall good within its simple formula. Female protagonist.

    Life with an Ordinary Guy Who Reincarnated into a Total Fantasy Knockout is very good, great comedy with a gender bend/swap.

    Now and Then, Here and There (2000) is great.

    No Game No Life has a sibling pair as protagonists. (Prequel movie is great but not an isekai, the very good series is. Although it has its own share of "lewd service" IIRC.)

    My Isekai Life: I Gained a Second Character Class and Became the Strongest Sage in the World! is only average, but a non-harem isekai as far as I remember and from what I can see skimming through.

    Reincarnated as a Sword is good.

    Saga of Tanya the Evil is good.

    Saving 80,000 Gold in Another World for My Retirement is good. Female protagonist.

    The Devil Is a Part-Timer! is very good.

    The Great Jahy Will Not Be Defeated! is good.

    The Twelve Kingdoms (2003) is decent.

    Uncle from Another World is great.

    Kagami no Kojou (2022, movie) is great.


    If it's about the boy harem, there's those series with a female protagonist and reverse harem:

    My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! is good. (Otome-based.)

    The Most Heretical Last Boss Queen: From Villainess to Savior is good. (Otome-based.)

    Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke`s Mansion is good. May be reverse harem, or paired romance - I don't remember in particular. (Otome-based.)


    Bofuri: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense. is not isekai transported, but videogame playing in world.

    When broadening to fantasy, I rewatched Moribito - Guardian of the Spirit (2007) a little while ago, which has a strong female protagonist, and is exceptional. Definite recommendation.

  • Easy way to add custom search engines (I assume other browsers have this too, but I know that on Firefox it’s a little bit longer process to make one)

    The reasonable alternative in Firefox is search bookmarks. Create a bookmark with search url target and %s placeholder, and give it a search keyword. Then you can search with keyword search text.

  • Not great isn't the same as evil. They're still sharing what they have.

  • it often gets caught pulling anti-user shenanigans

    I'm not aware. Can you list a few?

    Receiving funding doesn't necessarily mean serving. Google is interested in funding to keep it's position. Mozilla still provides alternatives and regularly criticizes Google.

  • Open the actual post and you will see various and numerous answers, including mine.

    Dunno why you @ me on my comment when I specifically talked about not using an app but the website.

  • Any working what?

    I'm using the website of my instance. Lemmy instances typically have their own website you can use - which is exactly or slightly modified versions of the interface of the Lemmy project.

    If you trust your instance with your account and its associated data surely you trust it's website.

  • You could use the website in a webbrowser. Then you don't have to be concerned about app and app provider.

    It's what I'm using. On mobile too.

  • 6 months is where you start to have good insights into and knowledge of areas of a decently complex project. It takes time.

    There's no "normal". Processes, projects, and people vary greatly between companies.

    Sounds like stuff in your processes and communication could be improved, by a lot for you.

    This may be better communicated and discussed in person than by email. You can get their perspective, and offer yours, and what you think would improve processes, team synergy and collaboration.

  • Yes; I just found it important context/properties of them

    Some may be interested in growing them, others not

    Barely any content also makes it less clear what it is or will be about, to what degree - and if there even will be more content.

  • This c/Technology community is incredibly toxic. Don't let this instance get to you too much. I didn't read your comment that way. Maybe a bit short and direct and unclear, but nothing worth downvoting for.
