Does anyone know the timing of dynamic import() statements in the browser?

Importing a module with <script type=module> will defer module execution until after DomContentLoaded, but if you add 'async', it will run as soon as it is fetched. Which does import() do?

Having given up on migrating the old data, I now start a full system backup.

Now, the school rules say they're not allowed to be out this late. Ono will overlook it this time, but in the future, they'd better stick to weekends and holidays.

Miki comes away happy that she has someone to find fun with.

The manage isn't going to go easy on them, even though it's their first time. He plays every game for real.

Miki is freaking out, so Ono joins her team to explain the strategy. They win with a bold strategy and a lucky roll.

On their way home, they spot their class rep, Ono. What could she be doing in this part of the city?

They tail her.

She's working at her part time job at a store that specializes in German board games.

The manager convinces them to try one.

(We're in Kyoto.) Aya has just moved here recently, and press-gangs Miki into showing her around.

Miki is worried that they'll get lost, but Aya corrects her: you can't get lost if you're not going anywhere in particular.

They have a fun afternoon sightseeing.

Miki must have a case of social anxiety or claustrophobia or something, because she turns down an invitation to karaoke because there will be too many people there.

But when her classmate Aya almost runs her over on her bike by accident, well you can't avoid making friends.

We open on a soliloquy: Miki, our heroine, says she never really knew how to play with the other kids. She didn't really know what was "fun". She's basically been waiting for someone to show her.

The opener is pretty standard. Various shots of the main characters.

Apple has done some kind of extra bullshit that makes this not work.

I don't know if it's System Integrity Protection on the backup folder, or some extra spicy ACL bullshit that rsync doesn't know. Either way, it prevents rsync from creating directories on the target drive.

Therefore at that time, when all the people heard the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and all kinds of musick, all the people, the nations, and the languages, fell down and worshipped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.

Which means that while rsync is technically resumable, the amount of work doesn't go down if it's interrupted.

Because the bottleneck is the network, and every file will go over the network. To send if it's not there, or to read if it is there.

So.

Rsync is designed to do a network sync. It wants to run a process on the source and a process on the destination.

When the destination is a network drive, mounted locally, the destination process runs locally, and does all the necessary reading off of the network drive.

Is it worth watching this show so I can understand the context of this meme scene?
