Why have LGBT characters been more and more present in Japanese animated productions?
Such characters were less prevailing in animé, but recently I was thinking about this theme and noticed the most modern of them have always some LGBT characters, especially lesbians (like in Yofukashi no Uta, Chainsaw Man and even Frieren) or some gay guys (like Kirara in Jujutsu Kaisen).
As far as I know (or imagined, who knows), Japanese society hadn't been very favorably to such themes, except for those who really consumed this kind of thing - watching yaoi/BL or yuri.
Is this maybe an attempt to get more attention from Western audience, considering Western "fans" can only think about discussing their 351 made-up sexualities and making degenerate "fanart" most of time?
(Also, I saw an user getting hated on and having their thread locked because of "homophobia" just because they wanted to know if some animé was actually yuri and they didn't want to see such content.)
EDIT: apparently, some people are not able to understand I'm NOT talking about queerbaiting...

reCaptcha spinning wheel
So, I have this issue regarding reCaptchas for a few months, but I didn't know exactly where to ask.
It's been hanging a bit, taking 2 seconds, 3 or even more sometimes for the spinning wheel animation to disappear, as you can see in the video. It didn't use to be like that until months ago. Of course I deleted cookies, cache etc. many times, but the problem is always back, no matter what I clean.
And it only happens to Chromium-based browsers! I've tested it on Chrome and got the same results. Same for Opera. But on Firefox and Basilisk, it passes almost instantly, never having to wait even 1 second. I imagined the problem could be my Windows, so I ran the test for Edge again, but this time on Fedora and got the same result.
Is anyone experiencing something similar? Is there any fix or should I move already to Firefox, since for my work, having the captcha finishing loading as fast as possible is a need?

"Melted" acrylic
Somehow, one of my joycons got this... scratch? Well, it doesn't look like a scratch, but more as if something hot melted it (which is bizarre because I put it in a box).
Should I use sandpaper on this transparent acrylic? Or is there something better to polish this?

Can't claim collectible avatar
So, I had this collectible avatar from a previous account and I'd like to move it to this account. I have done everything as the tutorial says, got my 12 word password and my wallet is on Metamask.
But there's still a problem when I reach this part:
>Create the link using the format below, typing it into your browser’s url bar: https://www.reddit.com/avatar/nft/polygon/**\[collection without 0x]/[token id]**?action=import
There's even an example in the tutorial and, when I use that, it works (I get the NFT page and the prompt to claim, of course that's just an example), but when I use my own data (collection address and token ID), all I get is this error:
What am I doing wrong? I used that same address to check my avatar on OpenSea and it works normally, but I still can not import it to my Reddit account.

My WD Black 6TB started doing some noises on the 16th, so 13 days ago. And it did the same sounds today.
I was not able to record the sound in time, and I'm not able to describe it, but it does ressamble a smoother version of the POST beep twice, than another one a bit longer. Happens for a few seconds and then stops.
At first I thought it was the Preventive Wear Leveling sound, but since this one sounds more like a thump, I believe that's not the case.
I also have no problems accessing files or anything like that. HDD was bought a few months ago, but the store did a poor job with the packaging. I know S.M.A.R.T. might not be 100% reliable, but should I be worried?
