    1. Delicious in Dungeon. It’s delightfully bonkers in a way that works for me as a very occasional anime viewer, and for all of the gore (actually middling to low for the genre, I guess), it’s damn near kid-friendly in its wholesomeness level.

    2. On a brief break for the moment, but in the last year I’ve made 7 hand-wired computer keyboards.

      That’s neat. For what purpose- better response? Light up? Aesthetics?

        Because I can? LOL.

        I do try to make to make boards with layouts that are slightly unique from anything I could buy, just to lie to myself and pretend that I “have to” make them. Latest kick, which simplifies construction in a couple of ways, is making boards that have no key wider than 1.75 “regular” ones. Means I have more real estate to play with and don’t need the notoriously noisy “stabilizer” hardware.

        The kind of soldering you do with a handwire is also sort of relaxing, like tying fishing flies, except you burn your finger every once in a while.

      was wondering about the age rating on this - my kid loves anime, one punch man esp., but this looked like a potential watch for us both. Think a mature 13 year old would like it?

        Yes, that’s probably about perfect. There are a few human deaths, occasionally with a fair amount of blood, though it’s fairly stylized, and part of the lore involves the banal commonness of resurrection spells, so I doubt it would be too traumatizing for a teen. The rest of the gore is non-humans and often almost more like a particularly unflinching cooking show.

        There’s only a little bit of “nudity,” and it’s thoroughly PG-13. Then the character interactions and themes are pretty gentle overall, though I guess there’s some realpolitik trouble brewing with some of the supporting characters.
