THE DECISIVENESS OF GUNS
__POWER__
A single strike from a modest 9mm handgun creates over thirty-seven times the pressure-per-square inch than the world's hardest hitting boxer's fist. This immense force means that each bullet delivers a devastating impact far beyond what any human strike could achieve.
__SPEED__
A single fully automatic handgun can strike four to six times faster per second than the world's fastest boxer can throw punches. This disparity in speed and power means that any untrained firearm user unleashes a barrage of bullets that no human can match in terms of frequency and consistency.

The gun stands alone as an unparalleled force. On average, the gun is one hundred and eighty-five times more decisive than the world’s most skilled unarmed fighter. No other melee or ranged weapon can rival the gun’s decisiveness, regardless of the wielder’s expertise. The gun’s supremacy in combat is a testament to its unmatched decisiveness and devastating force.

INTRODUCING GUN-KATA
The martial art of Gun-Kata takes humankind's most decisive weapon and perfects its application. With mastery of Gun-Kata, the gun—no longer mere weapon—becomes an extension of the master's body. The essence of Gun-Kata lies in its ability to maximize the effectiveness of firearms through the application of martial arts principles. By combining the decisiveness of modern weaponry with the discipline and technique of traditional combat arts, Gun-Kata creates a new paradigm of combat.
__SKILLFUL DUAL-WIELDING__
Consider the geometry of combat. A conventional shooter, with a single firearm, is limited to a narrow cone of fire. Their focus is linear, their action constrained by the very action of aiming and shooting. But a Gun-Kata master, dual-wielding, operates within a dynamic sphere of influence. Their arms move independently yet in harmony, creating overlapping fields of fire that cover a 360-degree radius. Each gun represents a vector of force and direction. When combined, these vectors create a resultant force that is greater than the sum of its parts. The angles they cover are not just doubled; they are multiplied exponentially. The Gun-Kata master, through training and instinct, calculates these vectors in real-time, adjusting their stance, grip, and aim to maximize their lethal potential.

I rate it 5 Hollywoods out of Hollywoods. At least that's a movie, it's funny there are actual scammers who scam retards into thinking they can learn the moves that can keep a gun pointed at you from going off before you can snatch it.

That's the "don't try this at home kids" move of all time. Only try it if they're making you dig your own grave because you have nothing to lose at that point.

thread for the creation of and sharing of zines or similar printable projects

We'll start by gathering resources to build a proper OP post


What are good fonts for a zine? They should be easily readable and print well even with low quality printer/ink. Also would be nice if they are aesthetic.

So, might as well put this fanfiction I made on how could ww3 go:
>Ukraine launches an offensive into the popular republics and Crimea, they advance a little. Ukraine declares war on Russia.
>The Donbass and Luhansk republics welcome the Russian army.
>The Ukrainian army advances into Crimea, but gets stopped. They conquer some, but get boggled down.
>Russia's military is organizing itself hard on this, and mobilizing itself.
>A month happens with people getting killed but no advances aside from light ukrainian advances.
>The west won't participate yet, but will help Ukraine through military support and it will tell through incredible mental gymnastics that Russia attacked first.
>People are not supportive of the war going on, but they won't care because they see it as just a regional war, no one cares.
>There will be some outrage at the west supporting Ukraine but it won't escalate.
>Then Turkey and Azerbaijan, using some shit excuse, attack Armenia to conquer it.
>Russia intervenes and starts invading Azerbaijan.
>Syria and Iran, maybe even Iraq, start attacking Turkey and Azerbaijan, since Turkey occupies parts of Iraq and Syria right now and Iran is fucking tired of it's bullshit.
>Erdogan says: Assad must go!
>Pakistan is big on being a turkey fanboy, and invades Iran.
>India then goes and invades Pakistan because Kashmir and so on.

Modern Olympic Judo is pretty sad in general, they barely throw and get in a hold before it's a "win". In the old days you had to genuinely get the person down and pin them and it wasn't called the moment the person hit the mat, because Judo isn't just throws FFS.

They're combining Nettles and Rhaena's characters into a single one, just like how GOT merged Jeyne Poole and Sansa's storylines.

What do you have against dragons

>>43506
Nothing. I don't mind a dragon battle from time to time. But they are adding a sort of high fantasy element to the story that undermines the feudal political scheming that made GoT great.

>>43525
The whole point of the story is that this is supposed to be the turning point away from the height of Targaryen power, because they bungled the politics.

I respect that they've added a dragonfucker character, makes me feel represented



 

Transformers thread? man reading a video summary on Transformers Exodus and learning the original cause of the Decepticons is kind of mind blowing
4 posts omitted.

>>43322
The Transformers comics are a mixed bag. IDW has a lot of good stuff, but they also tend to overdo shit or get a bit too crazy with some characters, not to mention retcons and the like. Honestly I'd recc reading the wiki and determining what time-line/publication interests you more. Some comic lines are extremely horrific, with Arcee being a forced transition by a mad scientist who she later murders and Shockwave murdering ancient cybetronians only to resurrect them as zombies, and then attempting to annihilate the universe. Then there's IDW's Overlord who is just horrifying to the point that even Megatron balked at him.

I like the concept of the toys, it's like a puzzle and two toys in one.

Transformers One trailer came out and it looks pretty fun to me. Some people are whining about the designs being Earthspark designs but I don't get what they're so pissy about.

Not all the bayformers designs were bad IMO. Off the top of my head I think the Robots in Disguise design for Bumblebee was worse and didn't even make sense considering it was supposed to be a sequel to Prime. But yeah I don't think it's worse.

Looking for video content that doesn't rot your brain. Things such as high quality Historical documentaries or quality lectures from academics.
No breadtubers.
Bonus if it can be found on youtube
3 posts omitted.

Also interested in this.

PBS frontline has a lot of good videos, the one I linked is about the Iraq War through the view of the Iraqi people.

I've had mixed success with "The Great Courses" you can find a lot on Youtube and they're easy to pirate if it's not there:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UjuD_BfSCZM&list=PLdttdG7j6PBaEnfCMPTwWqvicHHWV8vpK

This ones good, some aren't, it really depends on the lecturer they have. Generally, anything before 2005 or so will be higher quality. I find that they are the ideal in terms of engagement required, it's a step above pop-shit or random Youtubers but it's not an audiobook which really demands 100% engagement.

>Read this book that misrepresents and parodies fantasy and science fiction fictionally authored by Hitler!
I already did, and its boring, overrated and poorly written like most attempts at satire.
Not an argument. This nonsense is liberalism that deliberately attempts to project fictional stories onto real life with poor parallels that speak more about the author's closeted vision of the world and others, than the stories being referred to. The very fact that it was meant to mock Conan (among other stories) demonstrates that Spinrad utterly misunderstands what those stories were about, in the same way that reactionaries misunderstand and misrepresent such stories by the same token. In other words that book id further demonstration that liberals and reactionaries are two sides of the same fascist coin.
>inb4 Spinrad and Le Guine said it was about how we should think about our ideas of heroes
Its an entirely West-centric understanding of stories and settings that relies on the fact that fascists appropriate anything they may like, regardless of a literary works actual themes. As a broader example with orcs, this has been discussed to death in the fantasy thread and LOTR thread, wherein both this conception of "orcs as blacks" or other ideas of "orcs being codified others" fails on the grounds that MAGIC and DEITIES exist and concepts of pure evil and good manifest in a literal sense. Only ideologues and idiots would attempt to apply this literally or unironically to real life people. By the same metric as propagated by Spinrad and other liberals you can just as easily make Orcs out to be Nazi allegories, doesn't make it any less idiotic.

So I'm reading dune with this "white savior" shit in mind and imagine my surprise when the atreides aren't even white.

If you include myth in fantasy (you should) then it's the oldest genre that we have surviving examples of and arguably the richest of all literary traditions.

>>43111
>sci-fi is fiction
yes, it's in the name lol
>sci-fi = magic
does not follow from above

sci-fi has fictional science, but it (and its consumer) still assumes the scientific structuring of reality ("physics" in the modern sense). it is a modern disenchanted worldview

magic on the other hand assumes there are forces beyond physics, meaning beyond mere physical manipulation, usually with a will of their own. hence there is a degree of uncertainty that is not due to lack of scientific knowledge or technological development but due to something that the agent can never fully control even in theory. this is still an enchanted view of the world

both can be done well or poorly and both attract many idiots. I have to agree with the other anon about sci-fi and midwits though. magic does not attract midwits for the same reasons anon has given.
