    Based on my research, the first season of the Netflix live action show (8 episodes) covers the first 61 anime episodes. At this rate, the live action show could still continue for 17 more seasons.

    In all seriousness, the more I think about it, the more perfect this anime was for adaptation. There’s a ton of filler in the anime, but otherwise good story beats and character development. When you condense that down, you get all the good and leave out the cruft.

    I watched all of the live action show this weekend, and really enjoyed it. I figured the anime tone and goofiness that they clearly baked right into it would work against it like all the other live action anime adaptations, but it feels like it’s a lot less of a quick cash grab than the others. Some real love and attention went into it and it’s a lot of fun.

    I like video games, goofy stuff, and tech. So lately, it’s been:

    • My Brother, My Brother, and Me
    • Noclip
    • Besties
    • We Have Concerns
    • Search Engine (New podcast from PJ Vogt of Reply All fame - if you haven’t listened to Reply All, there are a number of great episodes to enjoy)
    • How Did This Get Made
    • and occasionally Swindled (my girlfriend likes true crime stuff and this is about as close as I like to get to that)

    Light roasted coffee has more caffeine than dark roasted coffee.

    Technically, per bean, more of the caffeine is cooked out of the dark roast. However, other things are also roasted out of a dark roast to the point that the individual beans are also lighter and smaller. When brewing coffee, usually you either weigh your dose of beans out, or you use a scoop for some consistency. Either method will result in more dark roast beans ultimately making it into the brew than would with a (larger, heavier) light roast.

    Typically, this more than cancels out the reduced caffeine content per bean, so a brew of dark roast coffee still typically has more caffeine in it.

    I think it was well executed for what it was, but that ultimately it was a real world location in a post-apocalyptic/collapsed state. Not particularly novel, and being grounded in reality, it’s all very same-y for lack of a better term.

    Still loved the game for the time myself and my buddies got into it, but at some point, it just didn’t hold our interest. The game mechanics were very well designed, though, albeit somewhat overwhelming at times.
