(I guess this also applies to many non-Latin American countries in the Caribbean and the The Guianas but you get the point)
My parents were saying that this Christmas we should go on a vacation to Mexico, my dad actually once went to Mexico before and he didn't like it for some reason so why parents said that any warm country in the Americas could work. I was exited but also concerned because I know how in Hawaii the local people hate tourism because all of the Airbnbs and Resorts are owned by rich white guys on the mainland so tourism there is inherently exploitative, so I was wondering which countries are and aren't like that in Latin America.

I would love to go to Cuba but in Amerikkka you can’t travel for leisure, you can either go for work of charity, and you can only go to what the U$ government considers a 5 star hotel so you can’t go anywhere you want. It sucks, also my parents wouldn’t wanna go.

Offensive cybersec is a small fraction of what I mean by hacker communities, but you have a point there. I meant these communities of independent, highly technical people seeking ways to build a more free and open internet and tech ecosystem. FOSS maintainers, people building cryptography tools that empower individual people to fight against surveillance capitalism and gov-tier threat actors, builders of meshnets and other alternatives to centralized internet, maintainers of the entire tech ecosystem that enables whistleblowers to stay safe in XXI century… My understanding of hacker culture and hacker communities is much wider here.
And yes, offensive security is a good example of why taking a strong stance of not allowing any form of AI anywhere is a bit like participating in triathlon while refusing to ride bikes. Striking a balance between ethical principles and remaining at the cutting edge of tech is not easy, and yet it's what the whole movement depends upon.

If this is a genuine question: it's because the serotinergic action in psychedelics essentially increases the brain's neuroplasticity by making it form more connections between neurons than it otherwise would. Psychs in the modern world (1920s) were originally used in therapeutic contexts because they're the only drug that actually cures at least certain kinds of mental illnesses by promoting structural neurological changes rather than artificially and temporarily putting one's brain chemistry in a state that mimics a model of sanity.

I had to wake up today at 6:00 AM and got ready to get to the clinic, pretty nice but i felt forced to look like i didn't got there from the ghetto…

got to sign some documents, they took my ID and i paid for the tests, a while in i got called for getting my blood drawn, the usual at this point; they got 2 tubes of blood and had me in for some questions regarding my medical background, after that i was taken to the "sample room" which was basically like a sink, a chair and a TV.

so i did some hand washing and such and i had downloaded a bunch of stuff in my phone yesterday, the whole time feeling like i'd just burst and ruin the 3-5 days abstinence recommended.

but i had already washed my hands and i don't think washing my phone be viable + i'd have to hold my phone as well as the sample cup and everything?

so i just used the TV with the USB which was kinda slow so i just kinda did a faproulette with it and actually seeing the sample size i got scared it'd be too small but it was just about 0.2ml short according to the doctors; besides that the sample was very good and i'll be able to freeze from 2 to 4 vials with a doctor's recommendation and go back on estrogen hopefully by next month.

overall everything is going fine which is scary because whenever things are going fine i get this feeling of calm before the storm.

stealth based hide and seek (amnesia, outlast, alien isolation, etc.) where you sit in a corner and wait for 30 seconds for the enemy to complete their patrol routine so you can move forward 1m. The story is pretty bland and the lack of gameplay is so shit that it drags the game down hard

Games with realistic graphics will never be scary. You need low poly low resolution smeared textures so you can't tell what the monster looks like and your imagination does work.

>>48224
so you hide your monsters as much as possible to make them super duper mysterious, what's the issue here

like i don't think mosters not being scary is the fault of advanced graphics, but the fault of game designers which lack enough imagination to give the vibe the needed oomph, because it would require inconveniencing the player

Shit like this is why ID verification for using social media or purchasing electronics is being pushed by the elites, yes it helps expand the surveillance state, at least the ways they're pushing to implement it, but for some it's also a sincere well-meaning attempt to fight back against the dead internet phenomenon.

leftypol? how exactly?

These farms existed for years before AI, but in the past they were mostly limited to shitholes like Russia or India. Now that copyright is dead and CFAA in the US is valid only if you're not doing anything related to AI - we're about to witness an explosion of these things.

Captcha evasion through services like 2captcha, phone proxies bought from some shady vendor without KYC laws… That's the thing about dead internet theory. It's not like it was just a theory prior to the invention of LLMs. Mass social media manipulation is something that has existed for nearly 13 years. AI just made it cheaper than sliced bread.

"Um vazamento no Salão Verde da Câmara dos Deputados levou um grupo de trabalhadores a encontrar, no início deste mês, seis mensagens de operários que construíram o Congresso Nacional. Os escritos estavam nas paredes do local onde havia o vazamento. As mensagens parecem ter sido escritas por pessoas diferentes (Nelson Nilson, José Silva Guerra dentre outros). Há mensagens de abril de 1959 e outras de setembro do mesmo ano. Brasília foi inaugurada no dia 21 de abril de 1960."

El turismo y los pobladores ignoran al Tren Maya
El Tren Maya tenía una misión: ser el motor para revertir el histórico atraso del sureste mexicano. El expresidente Andrés Manuel López Obrador apostó a que atraería el turismo, detonaría la economía y conectaría a las comunidades locales. A un año de que se inauguró por completo la obra, que atraviesa cinco Estados a lo largo de 1.500 kilómetros de vías, el tren ha impactado de manera muy superficial la vida de los turistas y pobladores. Aun en temporada alta, los trenes circulan casi vacíos en algunos tramos, y en las estaciones suele haber más guardias nacionales y empleados de limpieza que visitantes, según ha constatado EL PAÍS. Un informe clasificado del Fondo Nacional de Fomento al Turismo al que ha accedido este periódico preveía que, en su primer año de operación, el Tren Maya transportaría al menos a 74.000 personas diariamente. La realidad es que, según cifras oficiales, el tren trasladó de media a 3.200 pasajeros diarios, un 5% de lo proyectado.
El turismo internacional que visita la península mexicana sigue dependiendo, en su mayoría, de las compañías de viajes, que arman itinerarios con empresas de autobuses, vinculadas a su vez con los grandes hoteles y restaurantes, mientras que los habitantes y trabajadores locales hacen su rutina con el transporte público, taxis o motos particulares. Hay pobladores que nunca se han subido al tren, pese a que el Gobierno ofrece tarifas preferenciales para ellos. El expresidente se empeñó en este ambicioso proyecto al grado de confrontarse con los jueces, que suspendieron varias veces la construcción por los enormes daños causados al medio ambiente, entre deforestación y destrucción de cenotes.
Para los pobladores, el escaso descuento que les ofrece la compañía militar que opera el Tren Maya se anula con el costo del transporte que deben costear para llegar a las estaciones. “Nosotros acá nos movemos en moto, u ocupamos los taxis. El tren, de mi pueblo, está lejos. Si yo quisiera moverme en tren, básicamente tendría que gastar doble. Para ir a Mérida, tomo el autobús. Es más directo y más barato”, explica Héctor Chan, un guía turístico en la zona arqueológica de Chichén Itzá, uno de los principales atractivos de la península. Los turistas se agolpan en torno a la imponente pirámide de Kukulcán, toman fotos y se autorretratan. Algunos se colocan enfrente de la edificación y chocan las palmas para comprobar el curioso fPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

I live in a country without access to firearms or crossbows, so I have taken up archery. Pictured is my 30lb composite bow. I shoot up to 70lb. Is archery just a leisure sport or can it be useful?

File: 1791166922342-3.jpg (640.92 KB, 1280x1826, Yoshitsune_with_benkei.jpg)

Of course it can be useful. Practise with a bow will strengthen your arm, help develop an intuiative understanding of ballistics, teach you discipline in maintaining your weapon, allow you a whole new sphere of social relations with others of the same sport, allow you to appreciate the differences weather can make on the smallest adjustments etc.

If you want to develop a warrior spirit, do not think of it merely as leisure, neither as just useful or not useful. Practice in earnest and the use shall make itself clear, the leisure will come of its own and you will discover what is not useful and when. Archery is not the way but is one of many skillful means to find yourself upon it.
>Do not stray from the true Way. Keep the mind straight. Practise the Way broadly, see the great picture widely — make the Void your Way, and see the Way as the Void.

These two are supposed to be the Citizen Kane of anime, everyone loves them, yet they are such fucking garbage, literal trash, why are they so fucking bad holy shit.
And I watched it when I was a kid and even then I HATED it, I had a friend who also watched DBZ and he hated it too, even we who were just two little dumbass kids could recognize how shit this cartoon was. And dont get me started on Super.
Naruto is just as bad if not worse, they somehow contradict their own message every god damn time, and have a little privileged retarded kid as the main character who was born with le epic god powers, and never works a day in his life to achieve anything, its all just handed to him

When I started anime in the mid 2000s people said Evangelion was Citizen Kane, DBZ was for meatheads, and Naruto was for kids.

>>30662
And they're right!

>>30662
Evangelion is great for what it is, but it didn’t invent “deconstructed” mecha

>Evangelion is great for what it is, but it didn’t invent “deconstructed” mecha.

Yeah that was the original Mobile Suit Gundam and Super Mecha Zambot 3.

>>30662
And Evangelion isn't the Citizen Kane of Anime, that would be more like Perfect Blue or Akira.

>>30671
>Yeah that was the original Mobile Suit Gundam and Super Mecha Zambot 3
Pretty much, Evangelion is basically a self-reflexive response to what Tomino brought to the genre

Why do some people seem to believe that everyone is innately bisexual? I've seen this claim every now and then online, and apparently some prominent bisexuals (e.g. Gore Vidal, Billie Joe Armstrong) believe(d) it. I've even heard it twice IRL; the second time, a lesbian acquaintance of mine said something along the lines of "I'm gay enough that I know straight people aren't lying about being straight", which I concurred with in my head (although I said nothing). Personally, I'm a gay guy, or at least that's what I call myself, but there have been a few rare instances where I briefly wondered whether I actually am attracted to women, only minimally and/or while repressing it, and although I have always ultimately concluded that I am just gay, it does make me think about the idea that everyone is actually just at some point or another on a spectrum of bisexuality. That being said, it still seems highly improbable to me. What are your thoughts?

Because empathy is an imperfect ability and picturing other people's mental process will always come with biases from your own experience.

>>10733

This is not empathy, this is narcissism. You are not picturing others, you are literally projecting yourself onto them. The question is why is this behavior so common among bisexuals who should know better because after all they themselves should be, as a sexual minority in a heteronormative society, have at least some experience with having another sexual orientation, the dominante one, projected onto them.

Certain queer people huff copium that secretly they're the actual dominant sexuality and three quarters of population just don't realise it.

>>10723
I have 0 nothing no sexual attraction towards anything feminine so answering you, no

You know, I used to think I was bisexual. Then I realised it was just comphet. But I do think it is best to see it as a spectrum.

this is just a regular film with a greyscale filter slapped on it instead of a film actually working around the limitations of not having color

Currently watching Person of Interest tv-series. First two seasons are kinda meh but it gets better in season 3 when a competing AI comes online.

>>47847
It's a series (this is the TV thread lol), and they shot it in black and white then did a color conversion. They used old school hard lighting and actual lenses vintage lenses.

I'm watching the three body problem (chinese) and it's kind of funny that the question that is making all these people lose their minds is basically "but what if science… wasn't real?"

>>48106
It kind of feels like if you walked into a religious conference and said "but what if god… wasn't real???" and everyone started going "woooooah no way! No way!!!" And started killing themselves.

Who the fuck was it that says Lunduke was a good guy? He's a rightoid now which I already knew due to his petit bourgeois class status and that debate with Stallman on free software.

Now all his videos are about h1b and discrimination against whites and pronouns and shit.

Feels good to be vindicated as opposed to the people on /tech/ who said hes a good guy or whatevr.

any of these people who take it upon themselves to try to become some kind of extremely-online micro-celebrity armchair journalist crusader constantly seeking conflict and controversy are fucking crazy, normal people who value their sense of self don't act that way and don't feel comfortable reinventing themselves as some kind of superhero character that completely eclipses their actual selves and turns them into some kind of one-dimensional entity rather than a human being.

Lets not pretend that every H1B is some best of the best "we can't find someone of this caliber in the US" situation. There is a MASSIVE amount of outright fraud in many overseas tech sector "education" services where someone who just stumbles through a bootcamp is told to say they have 10 years of experience because its very difficult to verify; many in India for instance have "Oh yes, we'll be your reference and say you had a PhD from IIT and 15 years of engineering experience" and, while those applying to the biggest silicon valley companies may get caught, there's both A) a network of existing hires who help others. There was a major scandal a couple years back in Microsoft and another in Oracle I think B) the corporate vested interest not to look too hard because

The real benefit of the H1B is to pay less than a local, legal American AND have someone who is beholden to your company. They can't just work for a few months and then get a better offer elsewhere, their H1B is connected to the particular sponsoring company and if you revoke sponsorship, back they are supposed to go (or remain here illegally, which some do). This is why you see job offerings that have insane qualifications for a low to mid level position, so they can say that there's "nobody qualified here, better go to H1B" but that's not much different from getting illegals to work in agriculture because no American is going to accept $1 per bushel of lettuce picked etc.

So even when they are "educated professionals", they're often being paid a lot less than a local educated professional for the same job with the same ostensible work history. This is not not an issue of "failing to compete / we don't have the workers' any more than big ag can't hire Americans because "nobody wants to work everyone's lazy".

of course most /pol/tards side with caser's legion but looking at it almost every single faction is awful one way or the other, The NCR is literally a reboot of America that is in the middle of a manifest destiny, House is a egotistical maniac and probably appeals to Musk bros and Yes man is just a libertarian wet dream

I've been playing it lately. Sunk about 80 hours into it, but only because it's totally brainless, so I've just been blazing up and blasting raiders.

The survival mode might make it more engaging, and I haven't tried any mods for it.

It really pisses me off that you can't really clean up or fix a lot of the settlements. Like in Sanctuary, houses perpetually have leaves and junk in them. I hate how everything looks so shitty. Yeah, it's the post apoc, but there's no reason for everything to look so shitty all the time. For some reason it drives me crazy.

But yeah, overall it's the theme park version of fallout. Roleplaying is basically nonexistent and the story mostly sucks anyway. But if you're okay with a light power fantasy shooter then you should be good.

guyz nvse gonna release ESLs soon

>>48209
I thought they already had esl files? Or is this some new thing?

How come there still isnt any new Fallout game? With success of the TV show, you would guess Bethesda would be jumping at the opportunity to capitalise on the IP.

I hate all of it. The fans, the retarded looking oversized armor. Most of all I hate that it’s heavily focused on the American military. You never get to play as the Russian orcs or anything. No you always play as the US marines. Because it’s meant to be pro us military propaganda. Just like Starship Troopers hides behind fake bullshit “anti war” veil that doesn’t mean anything because it’s still a pro us military movie. Do you get to play as the bugs in the Starship Troopers game? Nope. Yeah it’s all chinlet us military propaganda. Same with that gay Helldivers game.

>>48217
>it's not feudalism because feudal lords didn't indoctrinate their subjects
aren't you forgetting about the whole divine right of kings, inherently noble bloodlines, and other wonderful lies that feudalism pushed on everyone?


>>48157
No, it wasn't. If you like the Company of Heroes (or Warhammer Dawn of War 2 ) style of RTS its pretty solid. The only problem was there wasn't enough long term support and content. What Ithink undid them is what happens to most RTS devs in the past decades - they decided to focus on competitive PVP tournament garbage first of all. This also doomed Stormgate and many others and that one actually had SC2 style Co-Op from the start but they let it rot etc…but I digress. Comp PVP is only of interest to a handful of hardcore players (and these usually are actively hostile to growing your userbase) whereas campaigns, co-op, custom games and the like are way more desirable, especially for a new game with a new setting

Iron Harvest's setting and story was a unique alt-history WW1 dieselpunk take, but they were working with small kickstarter resources and because they didn't keep growing the playerbase with the aforementioned it didn't get the kind of long term support it could have used. There's a reason that even the Age of Empires series for instance is adding more campaign and co-op stuff and they're doing much better. Iron Harvest isn't bad, but it would have benefited from more campaigns, co-op special missions and standard campaigns etc. Its still worth a play on sale for the campaigns if you like the mechanics/settings, its just a pity it didn't get more.

By comparison, DoW4 has a huge amount of buzz behind it given the interest in all DoW1 and 2, which both had significant DLC and modding expansions alike. We'll see where it goes but I hope for the best.

i've always wanted a pinephone but i have to pay a hefty sum for importing it, the RAM drought also hit it pretty badly and 4GB is just not good enough for a "pro" model. maybe when the chinese flood the market with cheap ram in 2028

I really enjoyed Buddy, but that’s because I had edibles and drank a decent amount of liquor before watching

Watched the Irish horror movie The Hallow the other night. *nglish couple move to the Irish countryside because the husband is some kind of botanist or something surveying this Irish forest the government wants to sell off. The locals are against it for what seem like superstitious reasons and are generally vaguely hostile to the couple.

The movie's messages seem a little confused but it's fun and genuinely scary in parts. I'd give it a solid B rating I suppose, where it's not mind blowing or anything but if you're looking for something scary to watch for spooky season you probably won't be disappointed.

The new resident evil movie was pretty good.

good god dude

there's a clear thread between matrix resurrections and digger, in that, they're both deeply cynical movies that turn the camera towards the process of movie making itself, examine it, and find nothing but contempt towards it. i wonder if WB execs really hate themselves this much, i understand getting fooled once into making a brechtian piece on cash grabs pretending to be a belated sequel to matrix, but getting fooled twice into making the same movie? it's so fitting that this is the swansong for WB, there's a merger going through with paramount, just as the ellisons are running around like headless chickens to fill their coffers, which may mean an end to WB as it has existed for decades; and Digger, their swan song.

insane fucking movie.
