I don't know how much of a problem it is nowadays, but I know for a very long time, "westerners" for some reason have a tendency to view anime in a similar way to how racist karens react when they have to walk past an innocent black person while walking at the park. I've never understood it but most of the people who don't like anime, usually act like it's somehow a threat to society and do everything they can to either slander it or just straight up try to get it banned. It's insane and until people like this stop existing, anime will never be properly excepted.

This is the reason box86/64 exists.

I haven't tried that many hot sauces but I like hot sauces that have a good mix of both heat and flavor. What I prefer depends on what I'm eating, so sometimes I prefer Tapatio and other times I prefer (real) Sriracha. I do also sometimes use other hot sauces like the ghost pepper ranch from Wendy's when I can get them.

It's been a while since I last laughed that hard but it was when Vinesauce played Gat Life: Boyfriend Bar.

Yeah, blood has a smell. I don't know why but some people can't smell it at all, while some people can smell it from pretty far way. I've never tested exactly how sensitive I am to the smell but, for example, if a woman is having her time of the month, I can usually smell it from several feet away.

I had the cliche phase of thinking that I was a vampire because a combination of a few things. I have a problem with my teeth where it caused my "K9s" to protrude outwards, I don't have a normally detectable pulse and I've always been able to smell other peoples blood from abnormally far away but I can never smell my own. I know now that these are things that can happen to anyone but back then, I didn't know any better.

Back in the days of MS-DOS, there was something called "PC-Booters". They were created because of the fact that there was a lot of different operating systems that were actively used. So their solution was to just create a basic OS that contained the bare minimum required to run the game.
