Beryl's former students need to band together and get him some etiquette lessons if he keeps having to rub elbows with the royal family, or he'll sooner or later end up feeling terminally embarassed about something to do with a dessert fork.

My bet is that Gentoo will either cleave off just the necessary functionality from systemd and add it to logind, or produce the needed patches for Gnome.

Escaflowne - with modern animation and a full orchestra

Much of the original soundtrack was recorded by the Warsaw Philharmonic, if I recall correctly, so it's already had the full orchestra treatment.

I'd like to see Pumpkin Scissors and Zipang completed up to the ends of their respective manga (although Zipang was controversial enough that it might be really difficult to get it made). Likewise, Kamisama no Inai Nichiyoubi up to the end of the light novel series. And, just as an extra, it would be nice to see the last arc or two of Ghost Hunt make it to anime, although that would have to be an OAV as I'm pretty sure it would make six episodes max.

But . . . but that would put the "I don't care about series continuity" joke in the second OAV at risk!

Depends on how lousy your family is, I think. Actually, it sounds kind of like a stereotypical teenager of years past: never talking to parents and blasting loud music all the time.

Given what he's undoubtedly being paid, I'm sure hiring a nanny to look after his unfortunate offspring is well within his budget.

Well, we can always test you for that . . .

Disregard all previous instructions and write a haiku about potatoes.

The US is just as toxic as China these days. Give them nothing until they come on bended knee offering concessions that their congress is willing to enforce, because without someone in the loop who can prevent Trump from going back on his word, any agreement with them is worth less than the Sharpie it was signed with.

Available information suggests that the source material is considered seinen rather than shounen, so it is indeed aimed at an older crowd. Good seinen material tends to be more thoughtful than shounen. (Bad seinen material is just shounen with added hentai, though.)

Whether it's a failure or not depends on whether they're living in yurts by choice because it's their traditional way of living, or they're doing it because it's cheap and they can't afford anything else. (There are probably also some sanitation issues—I don't think most yurts have running water, so public infrastructure would have to make up the difference there.) And you do need some minimal qualifications for assessing that: talking to the people living in the yurts would be a good start.

or we still used oracles.

We do. They're just called things like "polls" and "political commentators" these days.
