some behaviorists took a baby and made it like bunnies and stuff and then they made it so the baby would be subjected to incredibly loud painful noises when it saw bunnies and the fear generalized to everything furry and white and then they never tried to fix it lmao
>>407748 Yeah and imagine that pavlov did this with dogs and he was russian and with food and smells I think some american doctor did it with kids or pavlov himself or some other russian but some guy did it with kids, but once again smells and treats or something no torture

yeah it was like reasonable and then americans come along and ramp it up to a fuckin thousand
Like imagine that one behaviorist doctor who made an experiment to see if stuttering can be "taught" and then ruined the lives of dozens of kids oh and he didn't even do anything forced a nurse or something working under him do it

yeah or the psychologists that tricked people into thinking they murdered people
Especially war time stuff acn be horrible, but usually there is the excuse of horrible states, ideas and the subjects being war prisoners etc, people the experimentors honestly think are less than human but when some guy just does it to their neighbour in times of peace and doesn't even get any punishment for it ever...

Look they're fun as shit, alright? Commies don't recognize IP
In terms of as a weapon of war, its use is pretty much limited to anti vechile combat from extreme close range and you still need to hit the exhaust port or such so that it gets tossed inside the vechile which is a lot harder in the more modern armour
even as litting something on fire, say tossing it inside a building that the nemy is holed inside they mostl ikely have the space and meanst o put it out you afterall need to use a liquid that is easily flammable, and most those things don't burn at that high temps or for that long Which is why napalm was invented, but where the fuck do you get napalm as a random dude... not to mention I doubt napalm would function that well as molotov fuel >>407776 yeah, but it is like "you can just make it" is not that easy and requires time and money and especially EFFORT
If you go all the way to play bomb maker, just actually make decent explosives something with shrapnel the products required to make such is equally if not easier than making napalm
>>407783 basically in terms of mob fighting a molotov tossed into the opposing mob, it isntantly causes panic even if it is practically harmless fire is scary
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>407784 yeah but you need a real thin bottle and hit it real well for it to actually break on contact headshot to a riot gear or such might work, but most likely will get deflected by the riot shields

can Molotov an alleyway to prevent people from going through too they won't realize they can just sprint through
And once again it has the same problems but even more than early flamethrowers the fuel doesn't really stick to thing which is why they used gas based short range flamers more oft more WOOSH per click the liquid ones have more rane though

YouTube's starting to implement embedded ads that my ad blocker can't seem to catch now. Except their for shit like American insurance. What the fuck do you gain by showing me ads for American insurance.
>>407810 I already gave up on the youtube ad vs adblocker arm race besides it pops up so random stuff like a wrist container for alcohol from a german webstore like what the fuck? also I kinda want one
Anno
Honestly I don't even really care about YouTube ads being there or not. The reason I got an ad blocker was for stuff like manga-reading sites and Wikia that are infuriatingly impossible to navigate with all the ad content they put up. Blocking YouTube ads was just a side-effect for me.
But back when I had no ad-blocking the ads were at least usually related to my interests and location. I don't have any use out of fucking American insurance though.
>>407816 Bethesda - buy after mods have fixed the game Creative Assembly - buy when imperial edition is out 50% on steam sale and same applies for any civ game

That only really applies for games Bethesda develops and produces. DOOM and a lot of games "out" by Bethesday lately are produced by third -by smaller studios they produce for. I've never seen any particularly problem in terms of the game being broken or buggy when it comes to DOOM.

Night in the Woods tells the story of a college dropout who returns to her small-town childhood home after two years of being away. She spends her time reconnecting with her parents, old friends, and familiar and unfamiliar townspeople. As well as investigating something weird that happens at night out in the woods.
I just heard about that a lot of heavy Christian/Catholic social sites from the States were telling people to not take their kids to go see the new Pixar movie, Coco. Since Coco has a lot of dialogue about Mexican beliefs about the afterlife and what happens after you die. And since that contradicts the Abrahamic beliefs of Heaven after death, those sites are "concerned" about kids watching the movie becoming fascinated with the spiritual beliefs presented in Coco and might "convert" to them instead. Which is fucking stupid.
I mean it likely originated as a meditative and spiritual function. But that would have been millenia ago and the function has been re-purposed and changed over time to not necessarily carry the same purpose it originally functioned as.
YEah I mean what does it matter if it is accidental worship of a false god that doesn't exist?
Anno
Yeah it's not like I worry about worshiping some false god every time I clasp my hands together skyward. Or that I'm worried I'm profaning something holy every time I "take the lord's name in vain". That shit means nothing if you don't believe it.
Yet he propably worships something practically with religious fervor without thinking about it much

Anno
>>407856 This might just be the fantasy nerd in me. But people who think like this rarely stop to consider that, in a sense of pseudo-logic, the rules that would exist for that to happen, would obviously go the other way for other faiths. And no number of people doing yoga would ever scale up to the same degree of obsessive faith that exists for the judeo-christian deity.
FormerRei@mobile
>>407854 I really like that idea. Ive seen it in fiction before.
>>407869 For sure but in terms of modern an famous fiction I think the warhammer fantasy/40k has used it the most >>407870 pagan god of wealth later demon of greed
FormerRei@mobile
>>407871 That and American Gods Which is probably less well known, but more "mainstream".
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
and of course discworld books they too have gods popping out of belief
FormerRei@mobile
I really need to read more of those.
Anno
>>407873 To be more precise they establish that a god doesn't have any power without belief. And once they exist with no belief they're infintessimly small or something.
Well I have already read small gods that had such small god becoming big and then saw that hogfather tv movie and that had santa claus being erased from existence and then some belief problems popping up
Anno
Yeah, Small Gods was sort of the focus of the faith concept.
I'm up to Monstrous Regiment at the moment. Trying to find the next novel, but I can't find it in trade paperback anymore. After Pratchett died they started rereleasing the books in sort of mini-series that contain sorto -sort of the general plot threads of the novels. So you'll get a mini-series covering the City Watch books, another that does the "Industrial Revolution" stuff like that. But the new books are in fancy hardcover and are not only more expensive, but also don't match the size and style of the trade paperbacks I currently have. So that's a bother for me.
FormerRei@mobile
Have any of you read American Gods?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
no
FormerRei@mobile
It's a pretty good read. It's by Neil Gaiman, but from before he was literally a cuck.

And in general Sandman is pretty good. I just prefer the earlier stuff because there was some plot stuff later on in it that I really disliked.
But I still love the immaterium of warhammer lore the most Just how it works and is inescapable is so good. and how the chaos gods per se aren't evil either it just is that how they operate gives them most belief juice compared to being nice and kind to your followers

One of the frustrating aspects of making large amounts of food for me is when other people in my house start eating it. I'm pretty good at sizing up the portions of the overall amount for myself and keeping it equal. But once other people take from it the portions end up all unbalanced and I'll have to take more or less than what I want to eat.
>>407921 "I will make a ton of soup and it will last a week" >a days later ALL GONE HOW HOW MUCH CAN TWO PEOPLE EAT living in goblin town was the dream

Hey tilde I ran into this conversation in a post-game just now from a chinese team i was playing against https://goo.gl/MY1tTN I put it in google translator i dunno what to make of it
Anno
oh this part got truncated Epic monster: yourself Epic monster: Your own 1/14 nobody BB you Epic monster Dian: You BB other people really interesting
Anno
Their in-game handles change translation from line to line too. Google could really improve their Chinese to English translator.
Anno
>Friends, you say slippery >play a group of dishes
Anno
This wave I am very strong: pom to help more control, how can shot in the middle of the shot puck Epic monster Dian: Friends, you say slippery Epic monster Dian: play a group of dishes Epic Monster Dian: Find your own reasons
yeah ahaha i love it
Anno
It kind of surfaces from the weirdness to be coherent from time to time. Like I can see them talking about the rankings/MMR, and asking why someone jumped or didn't jump in. But then you get stuff like the group of dishes.
I wonder how much of it is just bad translation and how much of it is contemporary Chinese slang that the translator just can't reliably pick up on.
Anno
chinese has a ton of that slang i wouldn't be surprised if go play a group of dishes was an actual chinese slang either like "go play bots" kind of thing, or like, "go wash dishes instead of playing dota" washing dishes is a very submissive chore in chinese families
Anno
I mean it's kind of submissive in most societies.
>>407933 Yeah that definitely sounds like a culturally-relative thing that doesn't have a reliable parallel to translate liberally with.
Anno
the two eyes of 100 soldiers was really interesting >>407932 yeah but the nature of chinese families having very family-focused evenings with extended family and tons of dishes
Anno
you can click on the lines and see alternative translations
Anno
oh it makes sense now road bounty annoying i think bounty hunter probably translates to road bounty or something
Anno
>>407934 Yeah but alternative translations can only go so deep into cultural context. Like I can say that we can talk about this 'till the cows come home but if you were to put that into a translator it would translate it literally and then a Chinese person would be going "why are they talking about cows?"
Anno
I'm thinking the 2 eyes 100 soldiers thing, they're talking about sentries for mid to combat bounty hunter sentry vision could be picked up as soldier eyes or something i could see that "buy yourself will die" is probably "buy yourself ward" but i'm guessing theyre using a loan word for ward, so it phonetically picks up "will die" haha this is pretty interesting to me

Yeah I've been seeing you in-game. I've just been running a lot of bot games and Ability Draft stuff. Haven't really been feeling like full games.
It's interesting. I can say with some assurance that things in it won't happen like you expect them to. That might be a bad thing or a good thing, but it will keep you on your toes.
Also I'm going to say if you pay attention there will be something VERY OBVIOUS in the first two or three episodes. But discard your assumptions once you realize that because it matters very little.
I mean most shows have a lot of obvious things so Is it something the characters act like we don't know?

I was eating a chicken sandwich for lunch earlier and Lazarus was all up in my face, trying to get food. So I give him a tiny bit of chicken and he got really mad at me and didn't even touch the chicken.
>>408188 So I see! I guess it's interesting. It's a little ridiculous, though. If someone told me they made a grilled cheese sandwich in their sleep, I probably wouldn't believe them.
>>408198 Well, there's a used pan with some cheese in it. And Fish says it happened. I don't think she'd lie or anything so I guess it's credible. But the idea of someone making a grilled cheese in their sleep is something I wouldn't believe someone doing, so I don't know if I should believe that I did it, even though that seems more feasible than Fish pulling a prank.
>>408207 They can display attempts at sophisticated behaviors, at least. They usually fail because sleeping people are uncoordinated. Successfully using a stove while asleep is really weird.
>>408226 Sure, if you're pretty sleep deprived. Maybe like 10 minutes or so if you wake up throughout the night. Not like the time it takes to make and eat a grilled cheese sandwhich randomly
>>408227 Seems pretty normal to me you can say it's weird if you want but i don't honestly think it is people like you and i tend to occupy our thoughtspace with active projects so things like food preparation, taking a short drive, etc are background functions
FormerRei@mobile
>>408227 That's like two to three times as long as it takes me, and the three people I just asked.
You have to do things other than baking to make a grilled cheese, so I consider that stuff part of making a grilled cheese.

Okay I found an article that says he is back home and feeling better. http://variety.com/2018/biz/news/stan-lee-hospitalized-hospitalization-1202685164/
I have a lens that costs $600, but I also have one that's very good and only costs $200. Modern lenses, that is. The more complex the lens, the more expensive it is.
What I'm looking for now is a lens compatible with a 35mm film camera from years ago that's got a proper focal range and still cheap.
Unfortunately, not as easy as I'd like. I need a Canon EF lens and there are newer EF-S lenses, but some of the EF-S lenses aren't compatible with this camera and others are, but the camera is from like 2000, so there's not just a list of compatible lenses, unfortunately.
They're normal lenses. The lenses that are compatible with a camera depend on the type of sensor in the camera and some other factors. Different sensors also affect the focal length of the lens. So the 35-80mm one I have, that is the focal length of the lens on a full frame sensor camera. The camera I have uses a sensor that basically multiplies the focal length by 1.6x.
>>408330 $2000 for a lens is a normal price. A $600 lens is a cheapish lens. Most people that are just doing photography randomly and don't get deeply into it aren't using good ones.
Oh. Well, those are generally mirrorless cameras. They're like a better phone camera than your phone has. They're not suitable for taking a good variety of photos and are lacking in all kinds of customizability. They're point and shoot cameras. They're the kind of camera you give a child or a tourist that just wants to take a picture of something cool without thinking about it.
Photographers use DSLR and SLR cameras as well as some larger cameras, like ones that use 4x5 film. 4x5 film is the go-to for a lot of professionals now.
I think I found a good one 10-18mm $300 though but there's an 18-55mm for $200 and the 18 is good enough for what i want it's just that 10 would be better
>>408354 A mirrorless camera doesn't get pictures as good as a Digital SLR. And a DSLR doesn't get pictures as good as an SLR.
I have a modern, very good DSLR and a 20 year old SLR that's pretty good. The thing about a film photo, though, is that you can basically make a 100 megapixel image out of it, while the digital photos are only as good as the camera which for me, with a very high megapixel camera, is around 24 megapixels.
I'm going to start doing landscape photography so I need to start using my SLR so I can get higher quality photos.
>>408365 it's not work my wallet is missing my mom is really sick i'm a nervous wreck in general i had a few close calls on the road this week and i've become morbidly fearful of driving and heavy machinery our washer's broken and i can't wash my clothes my entire paycheck went to a heating bill because last month was freezing -- but still the power's just out for two days at a time during sub-zero temps it's hard out here and i'm really getting distressed on a pretty big level
>>408367 Well that stuff does sound pretty tough. See if you can use the weekend to recharge. Most of my stressors come from work so it's a bit easier in that situation. But taking some time to just de-stress and try not to worry is important.
>>408372 It is, yes, because most of my stress comes from work. I know it's harder to get away from stuff that is a little closer to home. That's how I deal with stuff though, which is isolating myself from it for awhile. So that's really the only thing I know to say to help.
>>408374 Yeah, being able to just take time to get through stuff is a luxury, believe it or not. when you can't take time to cope but you still have to cope with things that are time sensitive, like not having eaten or being without meds or stuff it's not much of a matter of just taking some time to chill
>>408376 There was a big boom in the sky here last year. I think they call those skyquakes. It could have just been the end of the world starting though.
>>408377 I take time to chill even if I don't have time to take time to chill. Which I guess is another way of saying that I shut down.
I do feel for you though. I hope things get better.

Come to think of it, why did the government event ryt to bust down the runners just observe them from some high viewpoint and find out their meeting spots, pick up spots and so on untill you have a clear picture of their hideouts, bases of operations, communication guys etc etc and then destroy the whole infrastructure supporting them instead of throwing manpower and resources like there is no tomorrow at some girl running on top of rooftops sure keep them distracted with occasional chases etc, but the main point should be nailing down the logistical and communication parts. Then again, most governments in RL also suck at doing that to similiar organisations for that matter.

A good example is the dead space series first game is full serious mode, but it works damn well due to for example silent protagonist not ruining it second starts to be bit self aware and more actiony, but still manages to deliver and third is practically action movie parody of the first game.
You go full blasty blasty boomy boomy, but mostly against humans like how is that supposed to be fun? There are a lot of games that do that better It would be the same as having enemies that fire back you in a resident evil game.

I should do the hard mode+no music+ only slicer run of the first game at some point
in before Resident Evil 8 actually has mobs shooting back at your in first person. Let's be honest the next two games will be first person. Like how 4,5 and 6 were third person action games
6 was super action, like it tried to be gears of war. But 8 and 9 will also be the moody, slow, and methodical puzzle game like 7 was. That's just how capcom will try the formula. Gonna play them all like they were exactly what I needed though. I'm gonna schleep tho lol
I will move Heaven and Hell and anything in between to get to you. You wouldn't be safe anywhere if I was mad at you. And that's not bullshit, that's the truth. I've went up against people. You can pull a gun on me and if I'm mad at you, I'm coming for it. You'd have to shoot me to stop me. And if you don't kill me, you're stupid. So next time you see me, I will kill you.
>>408559 That's a difficult decision. I don't know who to give mine to and my Takumi is actually good. I hardly use him now though. I'd say your best bet is a Ranged character with good Def/Atk Out of every unit I have, the two ranged characters with best Def are Saizo and Matthew But I don't think they're particularly high tier. And my Matthew is both Summoner Supported + Fury so I guess his normal Def would be 30 My Saizo is sitting at 31 without being 5* or level 40. But really Close Counter just isn't as desired as Distant Counter

>>408579 I actually had that happen the other day or so even rose up thinking I had to wash a mug or two that I had used to drink and then was surprised to find them in the cubboard and then I realised "I hadn't drank yesterday"
They actually had hhalo 3 megabloks too Sometimes when I'm at GameStop to check for suoer cheap used games I see elaborate call of duty megabloks kits for under $10 and I have to exert large amounts of willpower to not purchase them

are similiarly there are ethnic gypsies or well more commonly called romani
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
thought to have originated in india and then wondered all the way to europe where they kinda stuck around as group of people who still are distantly related to eachother similiarly how european jews kinda didn't cross marry "locals" they are a culture, but especially in europe where they are the most they are an ethnicity makes it weird though, since gypsies is considered a derogatory term and "romani" the right term. but that mixes them easily with romanians not to mention "romanian romanis"
In Romania btw the romani have it quite the worst and also they aren't improving their standing amongst non-romani, since they just say wander into finland and sweden to beg on the streets and do petty thievery
>>408629 I have a romanian romani friend on steam. Well, I assume he's romani. Because he has plenty of stories about him and his family ripping people off.
>>408631 Well even tot his day amongst the romani, if you start to well living normally as in become a working part of the society, you will be at the best frowned upon and at worst shunned by your family and clan
HEre the general attitude is "live and let die" if they don't do anything why bother and as they are citizens, well the finnish romani, they get the same rights and services as anyone else they are just a few ten thousand people minority anyhow, so they aren't a big problem in terms of resource drain and since they barely do anything illegal anymore, no one cares we got more noticeable minorities who aren't even citizens yet nowadays that gather all the ire

Anyways, gypsies consider frogs to be unlucky so putting statues of frogs near near the entrance to your store is supposed to ward them off.
neo-batoto is quite good, but they suffer from the resizing issues almost every other mangareader site does either too small or too big

That's a shame, I bet a good user script will come out soon. Wait actually, give them feedback ASAP. Devs are more likely to listen to and change implementation based on feedback in earlier stages of development.

it is a really barebone site yet and I am amazed how quickly it actually became active maybe they started working on it from the announcement day Is nice that for once something doesn't die off due to random internet drama
But that was the gamble and what you got out of it was either the top race horse/warhorse or work horse or a harsh life lesson to be better at horse trading isn't like the so called "Honest" traders were always honest.
i emailed my professor about something important and time sensitive on monday and then she never responded and then yesterday, she sent an email about having been contacted about the problem as if she hadn't been sent an email from me and she asked me to call her but i didn't check my email yesterday until like 5pm and i think she's trying to play it off as me dropping the ball even though i worked on the thing without her guidance because it was time sensitive
>tfw you are listening to music while reading and then suddenly you start to actually listening to what you are listening reactions may vary, but I do always appreciate the moment my ears are blessed with "and just as I suspected: it is a big fat hermaphrodite with a flock of seaguls haircut and only one nostril"
i really think the grammatical structure of the english language needs to be reworked the rules were put in place at a time when the channels of communication were very limited we transmit far more precise signals through language these days and the carrying capacity of that channel obfuscates those finer details
>>408680 but jokes aside what would you change atleast for pointers? Or what do you find lacking
Anno
>>408682 this is a sentence that sentence conveyed a concept, so does this one
this sentence embarks on a new idea than the previous one, but contains just one expressive thought and one clarifying clause this sentence does the same as the prior sentence, but it has another expressive thought to be conveyed that's related. this is that related thought
capitalization should be reserved for proper nouns or for referencing, not for sentence starts the paragraph and the sentence are basically identical today, except some thoughts need some establishing context
just do away with sentences and express one thought per line
That is essentially what internet "english" is heading towards, though but if you ask me, you'd see more hmm cimpactising happening on the phone front and social media, though of course most use emoji and apprevations? *compactising
that indeed
Anno
compactifying i think is the word i don't see compactifying as a problem it's only a problem because it doesn't agree with historical protocol
obviously if someone's telling a story or something, it's a one-sided channel and there's plenty to articulate, but when we're not writing letters but using messageboards or talking in-person, using grammatical structure developed for one-way channels for a two-way channel is just dumb yeah letters are a two-way channel because they can write back, but there's no use for channel operands inside the letter itself since it's all being sent as one packet
spoken english is not one packet it's a continuous stream of packets, and it's a very high-energy channel

nah I ment that I consider it a positive in terms of relaying information, as long as the recipient can understand it and not get confused which is why the emote/emoji/rofllmaololwtf slangs can get wonky, since people quickly come up with their own abbreviations and I guess internet slang Gets real confusing when there is some word combination that is commonly one thing, in some niche another, in third niche its own and at the same time it can even be short for some game title or a company.
>>408695 I don't really know what to think about this
Anno
To be fair Ilya Kuvshinov might be a small group of people. And they experiment with a vast variety of styles while drawing. In either case it gets pretty easy to "copy" when the thing you're copying covers such a wide range. No one accuses anyone of copying the English dictionary.
>>408698 It just is amusing how recognisable the most famous style of theirs is when you see someone else mimic it
Anno
>>408695 So your phone is part of some in-company network or something? Or do you just have the new iPhone which uses face-scanning security.
Anno
>>408700 I also want to further denote that there isn't really something "wrong" with mimicing. At least until you start claiming it's something you came up with yourself.
One of my artist friends got good by copying the style of which another, much better, artist friend of ours painted with. The copying allowed him to really leapfrog forward and start doing some decent art.
Thinking about western comics en large, disney's characters and superhero stuff of marvel and dc, in essence they are new artists copyign the older ones' styles and then either sticking with some solid one or coming up with their own look but it all starts at becoming comfortable at drawing them and being able to do it consistently of course here money is involved, but basically it is quite similiar to older apprenticeship, where you essentially just copied your master's works
>immediately start to analyze its defensive capacities and how best to siege/defend it shit
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
well for startets >surrounded by large body of water >each segment is divided with a bridge, meaning any invader has to fight practically another siege battle to take them >height difference in the final keep making it easy to defend and implying layers upon layers of defense there >all areas are divided into road network, meaning quick barricading of the roadway is possible, meaning taking any is a slow lenghty urban grind but >doesn't appear to have proper walls just height difference untill the castle >the bridges are way too large making their defence practically moot >no gatehouses between the areas >only one entrance, meaning after you block that passage only way in is through the port >the port area doesn't seem to be that fortified so a rapid naval invasion could succeed basically the strong points of the city might get turned around, if you can assault the "inner ring" area and then blockade the main keep from the areas, most likely grippling the defensive cohesion also as there aren't any walls and as seen from the picture, there might be cliffs high enough to deploy siege equipment to bombard the city dnno could ship based artillery reach the city However... since it is fantasy setting and things can fly, I don't really see ANY KIND OF DEFENSIVE MEASURES AGAINST THAT? basically, what about dragons?

also water they are surrounded by it, but is it a lake or a salt body? if it is basically an inland ocean, the city could be starved out so easily
And since there is a commerce, industry and residential area all of those most likely have ports but at the very least commerce area has a large one adding another huge flaw against naval invasion, considering once again fantasy setting and seamonsters man I wanna siege this place
Coincidentally I recently studied up a little bit on napsie here more and turns out the guy was kind of a huge douche For example, killing an entire garrison after they surrendered to him, just because or when he was campaignign through egypt and syria, he promies everyone that he'd be their saviour claiming at best that he was 20 different kinds of muslim, christian, coptic and few others and when his campaign was thwarted, he retreated back to egypt, burnt everything on his way back and some say he even forced was it cairo's people to welcome him as a triumphant conqueror under pain of death
and then he fled back to france, leaving behind over 20k forces led by the only general working under him who disagreed with napoleon openly >>408724 for a japanese woman...
Rice fills you and has a lot of energy, but little nutrients you can live off of it easy, but for a growing child, nah they need proper stuff wheat and meat
Why are the dutch about 5-10cm taller than rest of europe they aren't that genetically apart from germans and belgians and france they were a rich region, but not that more than the others and they weren't that much peaceful having their fair share of war yet during the industrial era they just suddenly became giants

I think it is the enjoyable trash manga quite few isekai are actually that good there is just a charm in them at times either how they do the over powered main character bit unique setting or well the game take some are pure garbo though
