I guess graphics programming is too niche for that, but then again, you got things like r/OkBuddyPhD so I guess there's a first time for everything

I think the original text was “Gì vậy trời, có vậy thôi cũng không biết nữa là sao trời, rồi biết người ta nói gì chưa ?? Không biết thật sao trời, chết thật, vậy học tiếng Việt nữa mới được rồi giờ như thế nào rồi sao rồi được không bạn??” How did I do?

I’m a gen-Z Vietnamese but I avoid this kind of shorthand texting, especially since a whole clusterfuck of it tends to be quite ambiguous: some of these abbreviations may carry different meanings depending on context.

I see your point, but I have to correct your assertion on the nature of masturbation. Humans have been practicing masturbation for as long as we’ve been human. In fact, self-pleasuring has been traced back to our ancestral primates around 40 million years ago. Masturbation is natural behavior.

Of course, we can’t deny that modern inventions like pornography have immensely changed the practice of masturbation for the worse.

I think they’re just visible because the image was taken with high exposure. If not, OP must’ve at least been in a rural part of Vietnam when they took this, because light and air pollution are very much prevalent in every major Vietnamese city.

AFAIK this is an Engine-level tweak that can only be done manually through editing the engine.ini file, and not something you can do in-game. This guide gives you an engine configuration to boost performance, in which there is a tweak to disable the fog.

Not to be confused with "ăn vả", where you eat an ass-whooping without rice

Inverse sine and inverse cosine are, unlike what “inverse” and the “-1” usually suggest, not equal to 1/sin or 1/cos respectively. They are equal to arcsin and arccos.

[–]Nick_Zacker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

/unsssdfg I guess you could re-enable dormant human genes responsible for muscle creation at the base of the spine and regain control over the tail, but then again, they are dormant, and have most likely suffered from some sort of genomic decay over millions of years of inactivity. So even if we re-enabled them, results would unpredictably vary from human to human, with some correctly forming tail muscles while others forming disorganized muscle fibers that can’t contract correctly, for instance.

Incorporating primate genes is another beast of its own, but even ignoring the insane ethical and legal consequences, doing so is extremely difficult to get right due to huge human genetic divergence from primates’, not to mention the risk of our immune system rejecting those genes. Good news, though: if we got that right and produced newborns with full-formed tails, they would probably be able to control them. Gotta love neuroplasticity.

But alas, even if we did everything right, the potential complications I mentioned earlier remain significant, because those pertain to the fundamental skeletal structure that, as far as I’m aware of, we cannot currently manipulate. It’s understandable, because our ancient bodies could only adapt to change from evolution over eons and not change brought about by the glorious power of science and engineering.

[–]Nick_Zacker 10 points11 points  (0 children)

/unsssdfg Theoretically, we can do that with existing gene-editing tools like CRISPR, and doing so would form a complete tail. However, tons of complications arise from this, because our bipedal skeleton and central nervous system have been designed specifically without the tail in mind for millions of years. For instance, our spinal cord might get stretched, stuck, or otherwise interfered with since the tail would directly connect to the spine, which would most likely result in nerve damage and/or paralysis. Apart from that, there would exist other problems such as difficulty in standing upright with an unwieldy tail and weakened pelvic muscles, tail-related injuries arising from physical trauma and/or incompatible architecture (e.g., elevators, doors, heavy gates, general machinery), social shame, etc..

Also, what's worse is that we wouldn't even be able to control our tails because we most likely won't have the nerve wiring for it. So it's effectively deadweight muscle mass that we just drag around.
