You know, sometimes I wonder how the fuck someone so shitty became a US ambassador and then I remember that you actually don't need to be a career diplomat in the US, you just need to have enough connections.
To say "those Ukrainians and Belarusians and Russians are all the same to me" is disgusting

Xbox really liked doing it with multi-disc games or bundle on the 360, they would put 2 DVDs on top of each other in an annoying tall spindle case instead of having an insert. Halo 3 & ODST even came stacked on a 3 DVD spindle. Which is a shame, because otherwise I like those game bundles.

One minor gripe is that manufacturers keep cheaping out and just stack as many DVDs as they can instead of getting a proper 4 DVD box
Both of the Paramount box sets came in those, 4 DVDs crammed into a 3 DVD tall spindle case and then kept together with a foam insert. Had to buy new cases for those.

Box sets can be a bit silly, for instance I own two Paramount DVD box sets, one of which makes sense, it's 4 Spielberg films grouped together.
The other one feels like 4 random movies thrown together under a "drama" banner (I guess they couldn't call it romance because they included The Truman Show)

I do like box sets, they contain multiple discs really make you feel like you're buying something of value
The Cornetto trilogy is the first Blu-ray I have ever bought and it's a really incredible thing to own, with all the insane bonus features and more commentary tracks than you have ever seen

I keep both
I got a DVD of Promare as bonus with another anime, and that disc had bonus features that my Blu-ray for some reason didn't have
I bought a two-disc Blu-ray case since my original Promare case was one of those cheap crap tall spindle ones and put the DVD into the Blu-ray case.

Hi Alex, when are ur mods going to stop banning queer people like @jessiegender.bsky.social who are merely being impolite towards a known Holocaust denier and funder of extremist trans and homophobic hate groups across the world? Or are bigots more important to Bsky than queer people and minorities?
