EDIÇÃO PARQUE DO SOLSTÍCIO
"Trata-se de um monumento lítico no Norte do país que possui 127 monólitos que foram erguidos em um raio de 30 metros. As pedras de mais de 4 metros foram erguidas e talhadas há mais de 2000 anos e sua disposição é feita para, no solstício de inverno do hemisfério norte, as pedras apontarem para os principais astros do céu amazônico e o sol, ao meio dia, fique na posição exata do centro da obra."

"Como havia uma variação de povos na época, o Iepa informou que não é possível afirmar qual o povo indígena que construiu o local, mas indícios como pinturas nas peças de cerâmica, apontam similaridades com as do povo Arawak, que tem como descendentes os indígenas da etnia Palikur, habitantes da atual fronteira do Amapá e a Guiana Francesa."

>The variability hypothesis, also known as the greater male variability hypothesis, is the hypothesis that human males generally display greater variability in traits than human females do.
>It has often been discussed in relation to human cognitive ability, where some studies appear to show that males are more likely than females to have either very high or very low autism score test scores. In this context, there is controversy over whether such sex-based differences in the variability of intelligence exist, and if so, whether they are caused by genetic differences, environmental conditioning, or a combination of both.

>Lula é o Ronaldo Fenômeno da política: em todas as pesquisas, vem mostrando crescimento mesmo no meio desse tiroteio.
Meu camarada, sua conclusão não faz sentido, eu jurava que você ia encerrar seu pensamento falando do Flavinho. No começo do ano o Bozo Jr. pontuava na casa dos 20% nas pesquisas e a vitória do Lula já era dada como certa. O cara foi só crescendo, e a gota d'água pra mim foi ele rir falando que era mentira que o Vorcaro tinha bancado o filme do pai dele, pra logo então as notícias sairem e ele continuar subindo nas pesquisas.
Lula tá estagnado, praticamente empatado com o Flavio, e os outros % de votos vão todos pra candidatos de direita.
Além disso todas pesquisas nesses últimos tempos parecem sub-valorizar os candidatos de extrema-direita, Kamala e Trump também estavam empatados e ela levou uma coça.

>You expect Naruto and Sasuke to be these invincible powerhouses but you get upset about Boruto learning Rasengan and chakra nature without needing Sage mode?
Are you trolling right now? Naruto and Sasuke couldn't do that at Borutos age and at his level of training, none of the prodigies in Naruto's cast were there. Neji was a prodigy for figuring out a Main Clan technique on his own, but he was also a Hyuuga who's natural ability was chakra control due to the Byakugan allowing them to see it, there were reasons he did something like that, and he still wouldn't have been able to scratch Kaguya or Momoshiki, nor Itachi, nor Kakashi. They're prodigies but they're not born god-slayers. Even Naruto had to master the Kyuubi's power with extreme, self-damaging effort, and failed several times before succeeding.
>forgetting that Boruto was trained by his dad and the academy?
It's literally a plot point that his dad didn't train him almost at all other than some minor jutsu and the shadow clone was a big thing for him AND, not to mention that Naruto wasn't training his kid the same way Kakashi was trained or Itachi was trained or even HE trained. The Academy teaches a few basic moves and actions, Sakura went to the academy too, she didn't get her power there.

>Kurenais outfit was more “inappropriate.”

2) No it wasn't . It covered way more and Kurenai wasn't animated/drawn to have her ass pointing at the viewer
>upset about Boruto having greater powers than his dad
Are you genuinely being retarded or what? It's not about him being more powerful, it's about HOW its executed. Prodigy or not, there is no possible way for him to be stronger than Naruto at that point in the story, and they don't even try to address it. Even the Jogan doesn't explain it because as we see with Rock Lee vs Sasuke, a Dojutsu is only as good as its user and their body. Even if Boruto had future sight he physicallyPost too long.

That’s your excuse? You get upset about teen girls wearing racy outfits in a world where little kids are forced to become soldiers and used as science experiments and face death and used as vessels for demonic entities that torture them psychosomatically and you’re worried about them wearing a little too short skirts that aren’t even that risqué?

>2) No it wasn't . It covered way more and Kurenai wasn't animated/drawn to have her ass pointing at the viewer


And those panels you showed of Sarada doing that are outliers.

>You get upset about teen girls wearing racy outfits in a world where little kids are forced to become soldiers
Don't be obtuse. This isn't real life, this is a fictional story, so if they're depicting sexualized preteens (genin start at 12 usually) then that's intentional. Something that is intentionally adult like Ninja Scroll could get away with that, but Boruto is very obviously less graphic than Naruto for a majority of the anime and manga. More to the point Hinata being depicted in the initial Boruto manga with child-like proportions is weird as fuck.
The plot in Naruto included themes about the TRAGEDY of child soldiers, which we get in the very first major arc of Naruto; Land of Waves. It is hinted at that this includes using sexual wiles too but is not explicitly brought up or discussed. In Boruto it is very intentionally meant to be a society where the soldier part of child-soldiers is very tamped down, demonstrated by the Chunin exams being non-injurous let alone fatal up to the finale, as compared to any of the prior Chunin exams (including filler) where killing or attempts are depicted repeatedly.
>outliers
Nope, we see this on cover art with Sarada multiple times and that is most certainly illustrated by pedomoto. Also Kurenai's outfit only shows some thigh, barely.

>saying that Boruto wasn’t automatically good at all techniques.

You're splitting hairs. Dude did a nature-enhanced rasengan "by accident" and summons 4 shadow clones casually when Kiba and others of the same age struggled to make 1 without feeling exhausted. He uses Nature jutsu and combination jutsu casually and easily when other prodigies his age were not capable of it.
>Gaaras combover was a bit disappointing but he still looks like a snack.

Arguing over the morality of configurations of ink on paper or pixels on screens is really retarded.

>The Rebels are literal individuals from a thousand different worlds, wearing whatever they want and fighting for freedom. but this fundamental misunderstanding misses how human psychology and specifically the male fantasy actually works. The reason the clone army is the ultimate vehicle for self-expression is because of the customization paradox. True individuality only has its weight when it's against a backdrop of rigid uniformity.
>If everyone in your army is wearing mismatched vests, random civilian jackets, and varying alien headgear, a customized outfit means absolutely nothing. It's just more visual noise in a sea of chaos. You aren't an individual. You're just another cornball in the mud.
>When everyone around you is wearing the exact same armor, adding a slash of blue across your visor or apaulron near your shoulder means everything. It signifies rank, specialization, and personal identity forged in the fires of brotherhood and shared background. This is the true male reality. men are inherently wired to seek out brotherhood. discipline and a structured hierarchy that demands excellence.
>The clone army taps perfectly into this psychological truth. You aren't just playing dress up. You're customizing a hyplethal precision weapon within a brotherhood of equals. You are stepping into a legacy of excellence and earning the right to paint your armor.

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?
2 posts omitted.

these kinds of confusion occur because many, perhaps most people, have a tendency to reify language into a perfect and interchangeable analog to reality. they think the word is what the thing is and vice versa. instead of treating language as merely a tool with which to think and study and describe and understand the world, they use it as a substitute for thought itself and offload all of their cognition onto the words which they simply accept at face value without ever questioning or even considering their true meaning, or understanding that they are merely arrows or signposts and not the destination itself.

There's a scale for a reason. If you include the definition of "bisexual" to include anybody who experiences attraction of any degree to both sexes, then a lot of people who identify as straight or gay and live their lives according to those labels would probably qualify. However I don't think everybody would, and a lot of those that do would probably be pretty restricted in their tastes. The classic example of course is a guy that likes twinks but is otherwise straight.

>Why do some people seem to believe that everyone is innately bisexual?

Wrong question. The correct question wouldbe: why do bisexuals, especially repressing ones, so often engage in sexual solipcism, i. e. the projection of their entire sexuality onto all of humanity when they are part of a sexual minority that should know better.

>>10732
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.

they're like the worst employees you could ever imagine, worse than any apathetic stoned teenager because at least the teenager doesn't have delusions of seniority or experience or a complete inability to accept criticism or admit to making a mistake, at least they can be trained. but the boomers and karens are unreformable, they complain and exude indignation and misery out of every orifice and destroy employee morale, they do things the wrong way and they get belligerent and defensive when you try to show them how to do them the right way, they get irritated with busy shifts and lines and impatient customers and they show their irritation very publicly, they gossip about co-workers and discuss politics and religion and create drama, they speak condescendingly to co-workers and customers and even managers, it's unbelievable. it's like a paroled convict who was in prison for decades and has no idea how to re-enter normal society. and when you are forced to finally reprimand them, they have a fucking emotional breakdown.

i was dealing with a recent hire who was like this, and one day i noticed that she was burning through rolls of paper towels at several times the rate of any other worker wadding up huge balls of paper towels and wiping stuff down and throwing it away and grabbing another, so i kind of pulled her aside so as not to embarrass her and explained to her how to take one paper towel and fold it twice to make four surfaces and use one surface until it gets dirty, then use another, etc. she became indignant and said "sweetie, i've been cleaning up after four kids for 20 years i know how to use a paper towel." i told her, "first of all, i'm trying to help you, i'm trying to show you how to do the job right, i'm trying to make your job easier. second, this is work, this isn't your house, and you are a brand new employee here. don't talk to me or anyone else here that way. don't call me 'sweetie' and don't get an attitude with me. you do it again, you're gone. do you understand?" she started crying. she cried about it for the rest of the day and then the next day she never showed up for work, no call no show. someone had to come in and pull a double to cover for her. and i didn't even get a chance to confront her about all the other shit she was doing wrong.

i felt guilty about it, which makes me even more annoyed when i really think about it because i shouldn't feel guilty just for expecting a perfectly healthy able-bodied adult to Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

semi-related, but at the first job i ever had i worked at a car wash staffed mostly by illegal immigrants and one day the boss told me to go clean the employee restroom, and he also added "be careful, cause these fuckin mexicans'll wipe their ass and throw the shitty toilet paper in the trash can" and i just figured he was making some kind of racist joke but then i went in there and there was a trash can full of shitty toilet paper. i knew there weren't any gloves or anything in the supply closet so i just bit the bullet and pulled the trashbag off the lip of the can and without thinking i pulled the drawstrings and a big gust of shit air wooshed out and hit me right in the face and i almost puked. i disposed of the bag and washed my hands thoroughly but it was already too late, the next day i was working and suddenly i just got really sick out of nowhere, like when the diarrhea just hits you with no warning and you have to slam your asshole shut as hard you can and you know you are seconds away from shitting your pants. i had to try to casually but quickly stiff-leg to the employee restroom and the fucking door was locked so i had to go into the lobby and use the customer restroom and i just barely made it in time and had this bout of explosive diarrhea just spraying out like a firehose by the gallon, like the biggest most violent shit i had ever taken in my life. i had to use so much toilet paper just to clean myself and then i flushed the toilet and it fucking backed up and diarrhea started overflowing all over the floor and i just panicked and got the hell out of there and didn't even wash my hands, not like it mattered at this point anyway. nobody saw me go in there but soon enough someone found the damage and one of the mexicans was ordered to go clean it up and it was all they were talking about in spanish for the rest of the day. i ended up being ill for days and had to call in sick and go to a doctor and get tested for swine flu because it was right in the middle of the 2009 epidemic, but it was just some kind of bacterial infection apparently. it was actually a good thing the employee restroom was locked because they all assumed it must have been a customer who did it, for the rest of the time i worked there they would still bring it up now and again and it became like this legendary story where there was so much diarrhea that it covered the whole bathroom floor and started seeping under the door into the hallway. they never knew it was me. but iPost too long.

The HOTD thread is dead so I'm starting a new one for leftist discussion of the A Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones universe including books, shows, plays, etc.
Imma start by asking who’s the most Historically Progressive force in Westeros as of the latest book:

>King Stannis for being a developmentalist monarch trying to unify the Seven Kingdoms against the threat beyond the Wall?


>Daenerys Targaryen for trying to abolish the slavery mode of production in Essos, rebirthing magic in the world and holding the power of dragons against the Others?


>The Brotherhood Without Banners for engaging in Protracted Smallfolk War against the tyranny and brutal violence of Houses LARPister and Frey?


>The City of Bravos and the Iron Bank for being a blooming bourgeois republic in a world that's been stuck under slavery and feudalism for thousands of years?


>Yi Ti, who much like IRL China, is a very technologically advanced superpower who does nothing and still wins?

None of those forces are historically progressive, but the setting itself is possessed by the Spirit of Historical Progress which is acting through them.

The maesters. They orchestrated both the Dance and Robert's Rebellion. Wake up sheeple!

Correction: There is a third boss, Monster (again, you gotta play story mode for seeing that). But that one does not become playable. So 17 characters, of which 16 are playable.

>>47877 (me, posting again about that game because I'm a masochist)
MJ is a character that when crouching is invulnerable to many crouch attacks. But don't worry, everybody has some attacks that work on her lol. Everybody has an overhead and the overhead is… your throw move. Optically this doesn't make sense of course, but gameplay-wise this is actually better than not having an overhead. Blazing Strike is really a 3/10 game that could be a 7/10 with some simple bug fixes. As it is, it feels like a Mugen title and sadly the dev is busy working on the next game instead of fixing this (and his reputation).

Is there actually a single 2D fighting game out there with silhouette-based collision detection? I know 16-bit games of any genre have rectangular boxes all oriented in the same way because of technical limitations, modern games still have those because it's considered good enough and it's tradition.

I suppose with hand-drawn animation frames one can argue that collision zones must exceed the silhouette areas because of implied movement between animation frames. But for 2D gameplay with polygonal graphics and fluid movement this is not an issue. And even with hand-drawn 2D animation with big gaps between frames, more accurate collision detection could be done by computing invisible morph frames with corresponding collision data. The question is: Is there a point to this extra effort, would players even feel the difference? Maybe I was a stupid kid, but back then I did not notice that everything on the SNES was really a rectangle.

Every update pushed to 400000 devices is signed by Daniel Micay. He already proved in 2018 he will destroy signing keys and brick thousands of users devices on purpose when he feels wronged.

There is a well-funded propaganda machine pushing the idea that phones can be "private." They cannot. Baseband, firmware, carriers, sensors, and in-app tracking like ads, analytics, SDKs, and push all leak data. GrapheneOS is the flagship myth. It is sponsored by Mullvad, a for-profit VPN, and funded by tech billionaires like Jack Dorsey. It polishes the surface but ultimately helps normalize smartphones instead of rejecting them. A privacy-friendly smartphone is technically impossible.

I finished Demon's Souls and now I'm playing Bloodborne on shadPS4 since you can do that now, it plays really good, but I dunno, even though this game is more demons souls than the other souls games, I think from soft never quite managed to do whatever they managed to do in DeS. My final game to complete my FromSoft cycle is probably going to be Shadow Tower Abyss, since it seems like it shares lots of aesthetic DNA with DeS

how 2 kill a fly

self-dubbed(by the author) as cyberpuke aesthetic.

short-ish game. approximately 1.5 hours. a little gimmicky but overall pretty fun with quirky characters. if you get tired of the main gimmick(which you might, but its still worth experimenting with), there's an assisted mode that highlights relevant text. the main gimmick is you're a flesh automaton slave who can only repeat what has been said to you. So if a guy says FILL SUCKZ to you, then you can say FILL SUCKZ to the next guy. Wish you could say more shit to people as otherwise its a straight forward puzzle game using context clues to figure out what to say to people. 6/10 game but was fun

>>47803
>self-dubbed(by the author) as cyberpuke aesthetic.
damn so cruelty squad is so influential it's now inspiring small aesthetic currents

I finished Bloodborne and then I bounced off mega hard from shadow tower abyss so I think I'm going to put off FromSoft games for a bit. Meanwhile I picked up a game I had also bounced from ages ago: Hitman World of Assassination and oh my god man, lowkey it might be a better game than MGS V? Once you really internalize that getting spotted is not a fail state and set it to master mode which forbids save scumming, it is insanely good to experiment with these carefully put together clockwork dioramas. It also feels really good to escape from a fuck up, and oh man I've never seen so much care and consideration being put into a game in like decades. What a game, man.

>>48128
WoA is pretty great, you should make a point to do all the escalations so as to really get into the meat and potatoes of the game's mechanics. For example, the Paris mission has one escalation where you gotta use a battle axe to kill three targets. The level has three stories, and each target is on one of those stories (ground floor, second floor, third floor). It can be a challenge to figure out how to kill them all without getting detected. The game doesn't outright tell you what to do, you have to use the tools available to make inferences and figure out what will be most efficient. It's almost like a puzzle, and the escalations are rather short, so it's the sort of thing you can pick up and put down at your leisure. They help you build meta knowledge so you can get the Silent Assassin rating on main missions and survive in other game modes like Freelancer. Cool game.

Hay una psyop masiva para generar odio contra argentina y justificar una posible intervención o lento takeover del país y sus recursos.

Por medio del mundial estan pintando al pais como una potencia sionista corrupta y despreciable. Estan habiendo demasiadas decisiones y doble vara arbitral que es dificil que sean todas coincidencia. Hay alguien interesado en generar toda esta dinamica, quiza para devolverle un favor a alguien y de paso indirectamente arrastrar polemica pero mejor no digo más. Despues del partido contra Egipto cualquier tipo de simpatia entre el pueblo que pudiera tener argentina en medio oriente y muchas partes del mundo directamente se evaporó.
Y por otro lado, llevan años queriendo pintar al pais como un pais racista, colonialista y hasta settler-imperialista por no tener negros en su seleccion o por sesgos historicos terribles que los anglosajones liberales y progres se tragan como bobos. Para muchos en su imaginario ya argenitina no es menos que el manifest destiny americano y por supuesto un estado ilegitimo.

Mate, the point is not that the HF hacking incident was an unfortunate combination of circumstances. They are explicitly training their models for cybersecurity and black hat penetration. If this was any other piece of software to automate penetration, you'd call it by what it is: malware. OpenAI is openly testing and deploying an advanced piece of malware, above the law, in plain daylight.

The usual suspects are spending lots of saliva trying to mock "leftists" for being against AI "regulation", so I assume government capture is going to be legislated soon and will be a total bi-partisan slamdunk, hold on to your chinese models while you can I guess.

I feel like we need to discuss why MMOs as a genre were never good, but how they were also fucking amazing. This is all due to when MMOs became a thing.
Most if not all MMOs people actually care about were from the early 2000s. They were all pushing the boundaries of capitalism over video games with either a subscription or whatever the hell is wrong with the korean industry, but, and I must stress this, but…they came out during the ONLY MOMENT they would've been successful.
They were social spaces, social WORLDS in fact, they were by definition larping sims. In an era where that was still a new thing. From 2003-2012, MMOs had THIS as their main wow factor. This is also their only staying power in media ABOUT video games, their sense of community and ability to break barriers…of course, all those external pieces of media also made it about how MMO players were losers, but nontheless, that was why they became a genre.
After social media became a permanent staple of human life, MMOs had practically no point anymore. Most of them were already garbage gameplay wise. This is why we all want classic wow, or classic maple, or the return of wonderking (which, by the way, looks like actual garbage, to my dismay).
We didn't "grow out" of MMOs, that is what idiots with no argument say to shut you up, the WORLD outgrew MMOs, and sadly, we have been conditioned to not be impressed or enamoured.
>what the fuck are you saying OP??
I'm saying what I mean, anon. Maybe I was groomed by this industry to endure capitalism, but DAMN IT, there was a time talking to someone as your personal chibi avatar was cool and FUN! Now it's a fucking bore, I cannot understand why anyone would play an MMO in 2025, almost all of them are bad wow clones.

Not sure if this is the right place, but since this is the gaming tab, I say why not?

Back then, GamerGate was the start of something fresh, something edgy, something that was actually rebellious against both the bourgeois moralisms stifling the internet and the feminist hegemony that no western male could escape from. It was an escape valve, in other words.

But of course, I was wrong as GamerGate later on mestatized into being another wing of the current right-wing hegemonic ChudIntern. Indeed, GamerGate was merely an exercise in online reactionary activism, but we should actually try to analyse it as opposed to dismissing it as chuds being chuds.

It’s won’t give you the kind of analysis that has probably been done to death here, such as the alienation of young men, the rise of white upper-class female idpol and the HR-style managerial culture that preceded online censorship and SJWs’ political correctness, journos forming email groups as part of a coordinated attack on the median gamer, the MSM’s double standards towards female-exclusive spaces vs treating male-only spaces (such as gaming) pathologically, etc…

This is a good summary of the event from a gamergater’s POV: https://wolfsheadonline.com/how-wikipedia-and-molly-white-rewrote-the-history-of-gamergate/

Instead, I’ll say this: The rise of the gooner chuds that you see today is a product of GamerGate, itself being downstream from the left’s rejection of sex-positivity and and pathologisation of any form of assertive male heterosexuality to heed the demands of the feminist bourgeoise that held a stranglehold on the left.

Obviously the online right isn’t really sex-positive as much as being pro-sexual hierarchy and has been the case within the western right since the days of the Nazis and even before then (e.g., Annunzio’s enterprise in Fiume). It’s just that their vision of sexuality makes enough space for male heterosexuality to attract young men (the most revolutionary demographic) into their fold. The left’s response? It’s either dumb Puritanism as shown by puriteens who think Euphoria (that show starring Sydney Sweeney) is rape culture, or bastardised “trad Marxism” about banning porn and prosties cuz muh exploitation even tho Chinese games nowadays are heavily gooned out + the Soviet bloc was lax on non-comPost too long.

sounds like a good trait to have! much better than ignoring them, handwaving them, and in the final result arguing they're natural and good.

maybe this is why SJWs realised all these inequalities were rooted in capitalism and became communists, while the anti-SJWs for the most part have pledged total fealty to god-emperor trump.
