Don't know the second one, but first is 100% Ascendance of a Bookworm. Absolutely love the books and would highly recommend them if you can't wait for more of the anime.

Hell yeah, love me some Nichijou! I oughta give it another rewatch with some friends one of these days
I've been banned off of Line for the crime of doing literally nothing. I created an account before a trip to Japan so I could add Japanese people I already knew or might meet while there.
I made the account without any significant issues, got the QR code to add a friend then got an unspecified error any time I tried to add them. I tried adding an official account with the same error. I looked it up and saw some suggestions about waiting a few days to try again so I did just that with the same results for any official account or my friends account. My brother made an account and tried to add our friend with the same results, then found that when using my QR code it said the account didn't exist.
After digging more into it and trying to figure out what was up with Line's support directly all I could find was an FAQ that said if you got an unspecified error when adding someone then it means your account violated Terms of Service for sending illegal messages, harassing people, etc that type of stuff. Still have yet to figure out how exactly either of us did any of those things before we could send a single message, but I'm sure it's a very good and logical reason which would surely also explain why Line doesn't answer my tickets or emails. Surely.
The other thing is that there was simply fewer games back then so you either continue to play the good games you own or you don't play games. I loved Ocarina of Time, but I'm not going to pretend it was God's gift to mankind just because I played it tons in my youth. I played it tons in my youth because it was one of the best games that I owned, and even then I had plenty more options than I'm sure this person had on the Atari for good games
Currently playing through Rainworld for the first time, and "where the fuck do I go" has definitely crossed my mind more than a few times.
I will say I've mostly been enjoying just exploring, but it has been frustrating at times trying to figure out what to do or where to go when my little in-game helper suddenly decides to play coy at another crossroads.
Tbh I'm in the opposite position. Don't recall why or how, but I had BoF4 despite not being familiar with the rest of the series and still adore it. I recall once having tried out BoF3 but I didn't get very far, likely had something else grab my attention so I just dropped BoF3 before giving it a proper chance.
Seeing several of these comments saying several people preferred it over 4 is making me think about giving it another shot.
Better Call Saul. I liked Saul in Breaking Bad and learning more about him and his past was great, but I hated knowing how low he has to be by the end for Breaking Bad to make sense. The higher he climbed in the show, the more of a tragedy it became. Just had to put it down some time near the end of Part 2 when he started doing stuff to his brother.
On the one hand I do still want to know what happens to his brother, but on the other hand I hate watching a car crash I know is about to happen before its shown the first signs of drifting into the wrong lane and (mentally) shouting at the screen to stop making stupid decisions.
Worth mentioning that although I acknowledge Breaking Bad would not really happen at all if not for Walter and his pride, but I still despise how much he lets his pride destroy him over and over again. As such I also don't particularly care for the later seasons of Breaking Bad, but at least with those I didn't really know the end so I didn't know how much it was going to keep going downhill beforehand. Oddly enough for this reason I feel like I may have enjoyed Better Call Saul more before having watched Breaking Bad.
I had heard previously the tariff would be 145% so I guess this is referring to a total price of 245%.
To some extent I can understand since they're expecting a certain ROI on the console which would include American sales, and therefore if American sales drop because of tariffs they need another way to make up that lost revenue.
That being said I feel like it would be a mistake to make that up by increasing the price of the console for other markets too. In my opinion if American sales drop then they should pivot their focus to other markets until American leadership stabilizes, i.e. stops being an active detriment to the American economy and all the international companies involved in it. Which likely won't happen until trump/his administration is out of office.

There's one nearby where I used to live that was disguised like this but for a different reason. They bought the rights to build the tower from a church only under the condition that it was disguised like this.
