New Meta AI ad shows man dumping goldfish in a tiny bowl without acclimating, then ends on a shot of two goldfish crammed in the same bowl
Main Post:
I thought trillion dollar companies would have enough sense not to normalize incorrect treatment of animals. Plus the added irony that this is an ad for their AI. Guess it's not smart enough to tell the dude how to raise his pets properly
Top Comment: And the idea that it's reasonable to take a fish to show and tell
Where can I read reincarnated ad a small fish?
Main Post:
I saw something about it being adapted to manga and I wanted to read it. But I can’t seem to find it. Any help?
Top Comment: It exists. However it's on Piccoma/Line Manga which means getting at it...is not easy outside of Japan. And I am not the kind of person to go looking for sketchy raw sites. Also it's not scanlated anyway as far as I can tell. No volume yet, at least none on sites I can actually access, so can't give you that either.

We need a paid option, perhaps through Patreon, that removes the ads from all episodes
Main Post:
I swear to god, this "stop the podcast!" shit is so infuriating that I have to stop listening to the show after 250+ episodes, it finally broke my spirit. It is without a doubt the most irritating and frustrating mid-episode ad break I've ever heard in a podcast. I get this Pavlovian vomit response ever time I hear it coming. And now they do it TWICE per episode. Christ al-fucking-mighty.
I'll pay a monthly fee just to get ad-free versions. But I won't pay for a subscription unless you remove ads from the back catalogue as well. There are a few podcasts I listen to who say "subscribe for ad-free content!" and then when you do, you discover it's only "ad-free content since we started the Patreon last Thursday, not the entire 5,000-episode back catalogue spanning 8 years, because we're lazy bastards" 😒
Seriously, how much do you want? A tenner per month? I'll fucking give you a tenner per month.

Can't you just skip ahead?
An Open Source, ads-free alternative to Cat Became Hungry: Teamcraft 6.3.0 is out !
Main Post:
Hello reddit,
Like a lot of players, I tried to fish, quite often, but it's such a pain to get proper data about it... Then I discovered cat became hungry, a wonderful website showing a lot of stats about fish, which helped a lot for fishing.
However, I had some issues with this website:
- It has no API (to allow other tools to read the data).
- It has a lot of ads (and if you block them, you get an empty page, so you need an adblocker-blocker-blocker).
- It misses some data we're now using (hookset, tug type, bite time, etc).
- It's entirely closed source, including the reporter app.
All this to say, it's a wonderful tool, which powered more wonderful tools (like garlandtools's fishing data and carbuncleplushy) as people used these graphs to find best way to catch a given fish.
As more and more users in the Teamcraft discord server asked me for an alternative to this, I started working on data capture and data persistence inside an API (that will be public soon, I'm just trying to make it as cheap as possible in order to avoid big bill for other tools' usage).
This is how all this was made, with an api named Gubal.
Starting now, each database page for fish contains the following data:
- Catches per hour of the day
- Baits used, with % of all reports
- Hooksets used, with % usage for each
- Tug types recorded
- Snagging usage %
- Fish eyes usage %
- Mooch usages
- Bite time stats (time between cast and tug, not hook)
- Weathers stats
- Weather transitions stats
- Possible spots for this fish
If you want to contribute some data to it, you just need to install Teamcraft's desktop app (https://ffxivteamcraft.com/desktop) and enable packet capture feature. You can even make it start as minimized inside the settings so you can just start it for that, no need to use it for anything else if you don't want to. The current data rate is around 50K data points per day.
If you want to support this project, please consider pledging on patreon: https://www.patreon.com/join/ffxivteamcraft
EDIT: and ofc, lke every X.X.0 update, it needs a hotfix for a simple reason: I didn't expect a specific thing in production :D I'm pushing a hotfix right now so these pages work properly.
Top Comment: I'm already a patreon subscriber, but if I wasn't I would be now. I can't fault cat became hungry for their design choices, but open source and ad free is HUGE. Big ups for developing and maintaining this!
