Are the juror's identities out there? I don't actually know.

I can look at the earliest posts and comments on my account from 10 years ago and cringe at my past self. I'll definitely be able to do the same with this account in the future haha

Haha I was wondering what you were pretty sure about with that last sentence there.

I'm not familiar with Book of the New Sun, but can hiruko actually absorb memories? I was pretty sure that was just something the innkeeper was telling herself to feel better about her son being eaten by Taka, and the only reason it took so long to kill her was because she kept feeding it guests. I'm not sure I understand the hiruko being both the cause and effect though, what do you mean? I was thinking the timeline has been pretty linear so far.

After thinking about it more, my best guess on Robin's motivation is that he wants to somehow use the hiruko's regenerative abilities to bring his sister back, and that's the end goal of his experiments. The guy from back on the ship with the rotting hiruko part mentioned a rumor about how attaching a piece of one to yourself would make you immortal and that there's a doctor at the Immortal Order who will do the surgery. That rumor probably didn't originate from Dr. Usami since his work was on prosthetics, but Robin also spent time with the Immortal Order, and we've seen what his experiments were...

I didn't realize this was Bedrock exclusive feature. I guess I've never tried to move lots of villagers en masse on Java before.

The statue is definitely supposed to be recognizable, but we haven't seen her in quite a while now so I don't blame you! Mikura Manaka is the person who tasked Kiruko with protecting Maru on his medicine delivery quest from the start of the series.

spoiler
She is also the director after the transplant operation that put her brain in Nata's body.

My confusion comes from what the monument to her is meant to imply though. With it being presented like that on the last page of the chapter, it looks like it should be a big revelation, but I don't see it. Feels like it has to be more than just "she helped take care of the children here for a while".

I missed that this place was New Heaven though... It's a stretch, but what if the children here are a new generation of Hiruko? Mikura must have been doing research somehow if she was able to develop a cure.

This chapter's done a good job answering a lot of the outstanding Robin questions I had, but the big one is still there. What's the goal of his experiments?

Also, what is the implication of the monument in the square? That she had something to do with the orphanage after they fled Asakusa?

It's not necessarily about asking questions or providing the right detail to someone who knows more than you though. After asking for help with the problems I'm experiencing, the answer turned out to be that the NVIDIA driver support for my hardware configuration just isnt there yet. It's not Linux's fault, but unless I spend hundreds to switch my GPU brand or start unlugging monitors, I'm stuck with Windows until Explicit Sync hits the stable release.

Jojo is what Lemmy has been missing all this time imo

The self healing part is for scratches on the inner screen. Since the inner screen can't be made of glass, it's prone to scratches.

I'm guessing they mean using it as an anti-theft device. If a thief steals an item with a tracker in it, they'll be notified of the tracker's presence by their phone and remove it. Of course, these trackers aren't anti-theft devices and you probably shouldn't use them to try confronting a thief on your own anyway...

The article seems to be implying that for some reason, but Copilot doesn't actually do anything to control the game either. In the demo, it was just telling the player whether or not they had the material to craft a sword based on what it could see when the player opened their inventory or a chest. It also gave a recommendation on how to get wood to make a sword with, but it can't take control of the game and auto-gather or auto-build or really do anything at all like those advanced cheat clients do. It's more like having a conversation with someone who's watching you play from over your shoulder than any actual cheats.

I think this article did a bad job of explaining what they showed off in the presentation.

As the sequel to a spinoff of a sequel to the movie animators were sent to work on as a punishment, Puss in Boots 2 is a cinematic miracle.

I might be completely misunderstanding the way Android Auto/CarPlay function. They're both essentially just screen projections from your phone to the in-car display, right?

Since my car only supports CarPlay, is there any way for me to "trick" it into thinking I have an iPhone plugged in and get it to allow my phone to display the Android Auto interface on the screen instead?

I made a post about this a couple weeks ago as well, but my order for the 4 Pro still hasn't shipped and I haven't seen any email updates from Elegoo either. I placed my order back on August 6th with shipping from the US warehouse for delivery in August. There's still a bit of time left in the month, but if it hasn't shipped yet, it doesn't seem very likely it will arrive by then.

I searched around and found a relevant comment by their support account on Reddit. They said they would send out an email on Thursday to let people know when to expect August orders to ship, but that email was never sent as far as I can tell. I suppose I'm glad it's not a problem with my order specifically and Elegoo is aware something is wrong, but I'm starting to get concerned about the lack of any updates all month. Anybody else here in the same boat waiting for it to ship?

 

Last Saturday I ordered a Neptune 4 Pro from Elegoo's US site and I'm super excited to upgrade from my Anycubic Mega S. I'm still waiting on it to ship though and was wondering what Elegoo's shipping timelines usually look like for these. I'd read that they usually ship from their warehouse 1-3 business days after ordering, but since I'm on day 4 now I was hoping to see what other people's experiences have been.
