unless the japanese equivalent of slots (relation to ethnic Koreans in japan not withstanding) is based on a slur i'm unaware of, the title isn't a slur, the title contains a slur. it's a sremovedhorpe problem for the lemmy slur filter.
Oh okay, you're right and i now know what triggered the filter lol
Yeah it's a Sremovedhorpe situation. Unless people have been dipping into the esoteric for their slurs Pac-hinko is fine.
E) Sorry Lituro, I didn't see you already said this
You could write it in kunrei romanization - Patinko. Looks a little silly, but at least doesn't trip the slur filter
Apple TV puts out some good stuff, foundation and severance were both excellent. I enjoy pirating their content
foundation
as someone who's read the books, I fucking love the show, and enjoy imagining Isaac Asimov rolling in his grave as his characters are rewritten to actually be multidimensional people and the story's fashione dinto something a bit more cohesive, with many of the main characters being non-white and/or non-men.
The best scenes in that show are of the emperor. Dude has such gravitas.
Like sure, the show is nothing like the books, but it's well done enough that it doesn't matter.
oh yeah, that too! it's such a fun idea for a crumbling empire.
Severance is getting a season 2 and apparently it's the most expensive TV show ever made.
Budget for season 1 was insane considering the entire series took place in an office
Severance was neat (though it's also an incomplete story so I have to reserve judgement in case S2 fucks it all up), but as someone who was a big fan of the books, I really disliked Foundation.
It varies drastically from the books so if you're a huge fan of the books I can see why foundation could be unappealing
