E;R's latest Whorra video and his comments about Tenzin reminds me of how modern Western writing, with its girl power Mary Sues, completely screws over traditional Mentor characters. Obviously a Fucking White Male has nothing to really teach a Strong Independent Woman, so instead of taking up what *should* be his role, the would-be-mentor character instead ends up portrayed as an out-of-touch loser, or a bitter, broken failure of a man, who of course has to be saved by the Mary Sue.

Contrast this with Shulk and Rex in Xenoblade 3 Future Redeemed, who actually ARE allowed to become the leaders and mentors you'd reasonably expect them to be. Not perfect or all-knowing, but still genuine great and good men possessing lots of special knowledge, who the younger characters learn a lot from.

@Moon Supposedly some US doctor over 100 years noticed that jewish women had less gynecological issues so he figured it's due to them being circumcised, but I haven't looked into it and the guy I heard it from was a young earth creationist so... :comfyshrug:

Noticed that mastodon.social has become the origin of bot spam waves? This was all Gargron's plan when pushing mastodon.social as the entry point for the Mastodon Network :mastodon: so there is only a single instance to block to get rid of the spam. Thank you for the sacrifice ❤️

@Reiddragon@mk.absturztau.be I assume it's slower because there isn't hardware for it. However you are right about poor maintenance.
For C there's libfixmath

@Reiddragon@mk.absturztau.be I'm not sure why they aren't in the standart library, but you have a lot of libraries and every modern language has a package manager

@beardalaxy I know, I just like doing the "akschually" thing

@beardalaxy the "held up a pregnant lady at gunpoint" bit isn't true or at least there isn't any publicly available proof. However the reality isn't much better, he was in a squad of 4 guys that were robbing houses together and one of the victims was pregnant if I remember.

@LukeAlmighty It's just a coincidence. A few days ago I watched a 100% speedrun that Youtube recommended.

@LukeAlmighty Without even looking at the date I can tell the video is old, because it uses an old method for fast traversal. :omegalul:
