We can post articles about Joan Rivers' death? About McDonald's workers trying to strike / form unions? About terrorism and 9/11/14 tomorrow? About my favorite brands of hummus?

'Cause all those nontech things affect me and others WAY more than someone's particular fondness for a style of animation.

In other words, NO WAY does this belong on Pipedot in my opinion. Unless it's just B's personal blog, which of course is his right.

Slashdot has had an "anime" topic since forever. Many anime series include hard sci-fi topics, such as space-junk, Internet, cybernetics, and the obligatory giant robots!

Surely at least some geeks are interested in these things, ne?
