kbin.social/sub says 404 page not found. Does anyone else have this issue? in c/[email protected]

This still works... though kbin still doesn't render the code block correctly it seems.

?p=1

basically tells the site to load page 1 of whatever sort is selected. You can also do p=2 for page 2, etc.

Not quite forever, but I went from a 6s to a 14. Had to change the battery a couple of times but other than gradually getting slower it was fine (until OS support was dropped).

So, it took a lot of effort, but I cut it down quite a bit to what I think are the most important parts.

I related to this on a visceral level. Brevity is hard.

There it is. Was wondering if there was any relation, to the point where I had half a mind to look it up myself. Thanks for saving me the trouble.

It's nepotism and cronyism all the way down.

Gundam Build Metaverse Ep 1 [Spoilers] (kbin.social)
 

Just finished watching the first episode. It's basically a commercial for the sketchy real-life metaverse project, but that was kind of assumed going in. (Build Fighters wasn't hurt in the least by being a Gunpla commercial.) The animation looks great, as do the new characters. The Divers team seems aged down(?!?) from their initial appearance, which is weird because of how young they were to begin with. The suits are pretty standard for Build, doubly so since a lot of them are based off of legacy Build designs. Looking forward to a better look at the antagonist suit from the post credits scene.

In all, it's about what I've come to expect from Build. Let's see where it goes. If anyone has any thoughts or impressions, I'd love to hear them.

Also: AloHaro is life. That is all.

I was NOT expecting that. It's enormous. And gives me hope for a future standard Wodom (from Turn A, not the mini one from Build Divers). Link is to BBTS because that's where I caught the news. I don't see anything on Gundam.Info yet.

Edit: apparently this was announced last week and I'm blind

Not sure if any of it is new. Would love to get that MG Marasai but I know it's just going to sit in the backlog. Same with that awesomely audacious Age Magnum.

It's not often that PB actually has something listed that's in stock. Scrolling through, looks like there's both HG Qubeleys along with the Strike Dagger and option parts set if you want something to make the shipping charge (flat $10) sting less.

Even if you're not a fan of his review style (save some superlatives for the rest of us dude), the intro is worth watching. I was not expecting that.

Live now, don't recall seeing these earlier so I'm not sure when they went up.

That Hizack better be mostly new. $32 is steep for a 20+ year old HG.

e: I tried posting this last night but it doesn't look like it federated properly. The only place it's showing up is in my profile. Editing to see if that helps.
