Ow Fuck Ow Edition
That's the official trailer for the upcoming Hololive live concert.
Couple of notes:
Coco is officially listed as 180cm (5'11") and Marine at 150cm (4'11"). Those are the heights of the characters, but they have to be pretty close to the height of the actress because they're using live 3D motion capture here. So the height disparity is real.
Second... Where was I going, oh, right. They wear an earpiece while doing these 3D routines so they can get instructions from the director without interrupting the session. Apparently Coco was being told the entire time to tone it down.

Tech News
- The Radeon 6800 XT was originally listed here in Australia for $1049, which made it cheaper than the Nvidia RTX 3070. This has now been corrected.
The reference cards are out of stock and it's not clear there will be more, and the third-party versions - which are also out of stock - start at $1269 and go up to $1599. $1799 if you count the hybrid water-cooled model.
Yeah, no.
- Brickmuppet is looking for hardware suggestions for a new PC.
- Ruffle is a Flash player written in Rust. (Ruffle.rs)
It runs on Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, and Android, and as a Firefox or Chrome plugin, and also directly in the browser using WebAssembly.
The WebAssembly version can't have any vulnerabilities that don't already existing in your browser, because it doesn't require a plugin of any kind. Comments say that it doesn't support the full Flash API, so it's likely fine for movies and many games but will break for complicated apps.
- Journalists For Censorship is outraged that Facebook isn't censoring the news. (New York Times)
If you want a vision of the future, imagine the New York Times complaining about Facebook - forever.
- Rhotacism is a speech impediment involving difficulty pronouncing the letter R. (Wikipedia)
Which seems kind of cruel, to be honest.
"I have whotacism."
"What's that?"
"I can't pronounce the letter W."
- Chinese police have cracked down on a cryptocurrency Ponzi scheme and seized $4.2 billion in assets. (The Block)
Which they will be keeping.
Yes, it's all stolen.
No, people won't be getting their money back.
- Ugh. OpenVPN.
