Guys I gave up. This thing was stressing me out more than my Ex. Just like her I loved it and hated it at the same time.
I’m too old for that shit so I’m out.
18 Pro Max for me and hopefully I will be back in a couple of years once Apple nails the design…
Have fun you all.

Ele está na comunidade virtual a muitos anos, sempre foi bem visto por todo mundo. Aí quando ele resolveu começar a criticar os web comunistas que saiam falando oq queriam, começou o hate.

Mas ele sempre faz videos com fontes claras, sempre revisadas e feitas por profissionais com reconhecimento, e sempre deixa tudo bem claro sobre oq fala.

Com o castanhari foi igual, ele mostrou q as fontes do castanhari eram duvidosas e tendenciosas, ele provou que nao eram feitas por pesquisadores sérios.

Com os comunistas ele também corrigiu cada coisa com fontes também claras, onde mostrava como o que eles diziam cotadizia o que os pesquisadores renomados afirmavam.

E por aí vai, mas sempre vejo o povo chamando ele fascista e de sla oq mais. Então espero q alguém responda minha dúvida.

Topic discussed several times already. I like it though so I'm bringing it up again. I like it because of my own personal story. I was 27 and my wife 19 when we met and started dating. We met in a third space, I didn't prowl around for young people, and dated people my age before she came into my life. Been together for fifteen years and married for thirteen.

People don't understand power dynamics. The existence of a power dynamic does not constitute moral failure. The exploitation of said power dynamic is what is the moral failure.

You, the reader, already agree with this even if you don't think you do. Because if the above wasn't the case then men could never be in relationships with women. Men are stronger than women. Zero serious people dispute this. There exists a power dynamic in every heterosexual relationship where the man can easily kill the woman at any time. The existence of this power discrepancy is not seen as a moral failure. The exploitation of it, or leveraging of it against the weaker partner is the moral failure (and we prosecute it).

Similarly, a power dynamic exists in an age gap relationship. It does. Nobody is denying it (at least not me). The moral failure would be the high-power partner utilizing the financial or experience gap to restrict options or exits of the low-power partner (either gender) with the intention of entrapment. If this exploitation is not done, there is no moral failure in the relationship and society must let two autonomous adults make decisions for themselves.

Note: I'm not saying you don't get to have an ick about it. You can. Nobody can tell you what to feel. What you can't do is conflate your ick with morality, because it isn't.

We're approaching 24 hours of ridiculousness here. None of you have even touched this device yet. And 99.999% of users of this device will NEVER know the difference between 60 and 120. Further, the 0.001% that would will acclimate to the screen in under a day of use and never think about it again.

For the love of god, move on.

I understood this book did not contain what I expected (I wanted for pop-ethology) but the evolutionary history of the horse was relayed intelligently and playfully. I enjoyed the prose and even where I saw the author coming to conclusions that I did not feel the presented evidence warranted, I still wanted to read her view.

Then came the final chapter about rewilding Przhevalsky's horses in Mongolia.

Among the possible explanations for extinction of original Mongolian Przhevalsky's horses was the fact that "Soviets insisted that the Mongolian people settle down and live permanently in collectives"

That's pretty weird but maybe they are talking about Mongolian People's Party bureaucrats, thought I?

But no

"in the midst of Mikhail Gorbachev’s openness policy, Soviet officials contacted the couple and suggested several possible locations in Siberia, Ukraine, East Kazakhstan, and Mongolia"

Soviet bureaucrats specifically under Gorbachev's leadership offering land in Mongolia?

And then a miracle happens

"Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Mongolia became an independent nation."

What?

And this is not a random aside. That is specifically linked to Soviets oppressing Mongolian horse culture and Mongolians regaining their ancestral ways following the dissolution of SU.

It is not an easy mistake to make. If that found its way into the published book how can I trust pretty much anything else that I read there.

I feel angry and cheated. I wish I could erase that book from my brain entirely so I would not have to second guess anything that I "learned" from it.

Everybody I've known that likes Harry Potter are usually the most insufferable people there are so many fans that make it their whole personality and if you ever have any criticisms they will berate you

As someone who's grown up with the series I've never gotten the hype around it. Especially after learning more about JK Rowling I'm not sure how other people can stomach the series - all the elitism/classist/racism in the story - and still support the series and the author

It is wrong to park illegally, and there should be a fine for illegal parking. Fair enough.

But it is NOT correct to immobilize citizens means of transportation because that is an additional burden over and above what they already pay as fine.

Take this for example -- our neighbor has a proper garage, she's a doctor. Her car is parked inside her property. Then someone parked in front of her gate which is wrong - a delivery vehicle obviously temporarily there (still wrong). MTPB clamped the delivery vehicle still blocking the gate of the doctor. Result -- the doctor was unable to leave to operate on her patient on time even though she has nothing to do with the illegally parked vehicle.

How many workers must suffer no-work-no-pay or even business people lose their deals because of disrupted livelihood?

Ang multa sa illegal parking ay nararapat lang pero clamping is just excessive and imposing added burden beyond the monetary penalty. It disrupts people's livelihood.

What should be done is to use the NCAP which as Manila City Hall mentioned already has been in effect since October 5, 2026. Take a picture of the vehicle illegally parked and let the driver/owner settle it within a fair amount of time.

There are places where it's better to tow the vehicle when it's obstructing or when the vehicle does not have proper plate number. NCAP na lang, mas mabilis pa kung collection lang gusto ng city hall.

There is a reason why Manila is such a dumpster because policy implementors are incompetent, tolerating or benefitting from chaos.

I could be missing something; I'm a returning player, so I haven't covered every new aspect of the game, but honestly, as far as I can see, the game has lost the thing that made its community so great.

Crowd control is dead, support frames are dead, the closest I've seen to team play since I've gotten back is farming teams with dedicated roles; every Warframe is the same: kill as fast as you can.

Is this what the devs wanted? What was the point of Steel Path or any of the new content if you can nuke everything all the same?

Why have the devs left half their warframes to rot while constantly promoting damage over everything?

No wonder I keep seeing people comment that the community is more toxic and whiny; the gameplay has 0 support aspects anymore- every man for himself.

Have the devs ever commented on this? It's a little disheartening to see honestly.

❌ You can’t drop it off a building without it breaking.
❌ You can’t pour a handful of sand directly into the hinge without damaging it.
❌ If you stab the inner display with a knife more than twice, it somehow breaks.
❌ If you bend it backwards with so much force that your entire body starts shaking, it breaks.
❌ Some app developers haven’t completely redesigned their apps for a phone that’s been out for five days.
❌ If you’re one of the tiny fraction of people who receive a defective unit, it doesn’t matter if Apple immediately replaces it under warranty. You should still absolutely avoid buying one, just in case.

Am I missing anything?

Stop watching then. Instead you watch every episode and come here and bitch and it shows up on my feed wasting my time like I am right now.

Last episodes were good. I enjoyed them. Yeah they're are some duds.

I get posts saying how horrible an episode is then I watch it and enjoy it.

So please go back to jerkin off or whatever else you do with your life.

ive seen this happen countless times where a girl and her friends will be together and a man passes by and one of them starts staring at him. usually her friends will join in or just ignore her.

so when your girl starts looking at a man, do you notice?? do you care? does it feel weird? or is it eh and normal? is it like a 'fun girl bonding moment' where you gals are just in sync looking at the same man?

I don't think a single one of these is bad, it's just a personal preference! My homie got me into Wilds and I haven't been the same since. So, I've been playing through some past games. I do think I've made a bit of an error getting into Iceborne a bit too late though (tried multiple times to really like it too) and it doesn't help that I don't care for slow-paced combat either. I can see why it's loved, respected, and important though! I wouldn't really call myself good, just really persistent! What about yall?

My mom has this really old photo of her dad standing outside the little grocery store he used to run. It's faded, has a crease through the middle and she's kept it in the same frame for years.

I thought it'd be a nice surprise to restore it for her birthday. Scanned it, used one of those AI photo restoration tools and ordered a large framed print. Looked amazing to me.

Gave it to her over the weekend and she seemed happy at first, then got really quiet.

She pointed out that the software had straightened his crooked front tooth, removed a scar above his eyebrow and slightly changed his smile.

I barely noticed any of that. She noticed immediately.

She said those were some of the things she remembered most clearly about his face. Then she put the original photo back on the shelf next to the new one.

I feel like an idiot because I spent all that time making a photo look better without realizing I was changing the person in it.

I've ordered another print using the original scan, with all the scratches and imperfections left alone.

TL;DR: Tried to surprise my mom with a restored picture of her late father, but the AI changed his facial features and I basically gave her a picture of someone who never existed.

I'm translesbian (24MtF), I have been openly queer for a while and I have dating my gf for years here (She is also a Palestinian), we are planning on moving abroad and marrying there. I can't live here after experiencing countless hateful incidents even disowned by my family and losing all contacts i had with them. I haven't done any plastic surgeries yet but I have been taking estrogen for a while, I do crossdress all the time though and I got a new feminine name although I haven't been able to change it legally.

Easy mode - Survivors with a base kit so unbelievably strong that runs become trivial. IMO these survivors should be nerfed.

Overtuned - Extremely strong survivors who still require some baseline level of execution to perform well - not completely braindead.

Well Designed/Balanced - Strong survivors who do not need overpowered kits to still succeed. These survivors feel like they fit in how ROR2 plays in current year.

Questionable Design:

Criticism directed not at how strong a survivor is necessarily but at how their entire kit is designed.

Acolyte: Encouraged to play with your thumb up your ass while Anima Harvester is on cooldown. Seems like a survivor that can engage in cool melee combat but past stage 4 that becomes near suicidal - devolves into just kiting and using Harvester.

Acrid: Encouraged to not engage with enemies by just spreading poison and running away while they tick. Has a melee primary that further disincentivizes you from being in actual combat with enemies - I don't think this meshes well with how survivors should be designed.

Drifter: Melee primary survivor who utilizes a resource gained by melee hits and mobility offensive usage to deal burst damage. No enemies or props to grab means burst damage crawls to a halt as you have to wait for the base cooldown of the secondary instead of using scrap to refresh. Melee combat to regain scrap becomes more difficult in later stages and you have to rely on Reposses to maintain Junk.

IMO people severely overrate this survivor because they look @ Tinker in a vacuum and see an ability that gives you a buffed Recycler. This ability is extremely strong but with the rest of her kit it cannot be executed to its full potential. If you actually play this survivor you will understand these difficulties.

Victims of Powercreep:

Vanilla survivors who unfortunately have been powercrept by how survivors are designed now. Modern survivors have both burst and proc damage built within their kit so that they can be more flexible to items gained in a run. They also have extremely strong mobility options in their kit that allow them to survive without necessitating fully on mobility items to survive. Older survivors are more subject to the RNG of a run - most will need multiple items in differing categories to reach power levels that are obtained by newer survivors base kit.
