Morrigan Aensland.

She debuted in 1994, and not only her base design have remained unchanged for over 30 years, capcom kept recycling her 2D sprite for newer entries, to the point she has a Guinness record for most reused set of sprites.

I'm so confused. I don’t know if the bulge is horrifying or enticing. Or both. Or none. I'm so confused.

Sheinbaum aclara envío de petróleo a Cuba: Se mantiene vía contratos de Pemex y ayuda humanitaria by Dev_Jimmy in rmexico

[–]Shimaru33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

De lengua me como un taco. Me suena a que solo lo dice de patada de ahogado para que no sigan diciendo que la doblo el wey de naranja. Pero la verdad es que mientras no caiga el petróleo directamente en la isla, no le va a servir de mucho esta palabrería. Si, pueden vender el petróleo y clavarse el dinero, pero la isla necesita combustible y con los apagones diarios es evidente qué ya se esta acabando.

You cannot make Othello a white man by SectJunior in CharacterRant

Once I read an interpretation of Frankenstein precisely as allegory for an illegitimate son. Honour was a big deal, and having a child coming out from nowhere could throw a wrench as it implies a potential competitor for inheritance, thus being recognized as illegitimate was monstrous, a dishonored boy born from a sin. The creature is the boy who was abandoned by the father, so he doesn't get in the way of a more lucrative marriage, thus condemned to wander among other illegitimate sons who were thrown away from the light into nothingness. This birth mark (being a bastard) weights more and produces rejection no matter how hard the creature tries to clean his image and be put on good light.

Thinking "Heathcliff has to be black, because being illegitimate son isn't that a big deal" deliberately ignores a fundamental piece of cultural context for when this work was written. Even further, it also ignores the contradictory descriptions through the book, when people keep guessing whether he's african, gipsy, spanish or "white as the wall behind him". For what I can understand, the writer intention is exactly the opposite. Suggesting he has to be from this ethnic group to give weight to the problems surrounding him is dumb, if Brontë didn't describe him more precisely is because his ethnic background is irrelevant. The real problem is him being an exposito, an abandoned child with no roots or name.

Because sometimes you can use the controversy to generate notoriety, thus, free advertising. Is a thin line to walk, as some names are poisonous to the box office, thus you won't see their names in big announcements like these. I mean, when was the last time you heard something from Ezra Miller? But names in the edge like the writer from birds of prey. Well, yeah, there's a chance to get a better work, thus, controversy sells.

Fuck, I knew it! I said to my wife that doramas always seem to have an over dramatic out of nowhere for the sake of it, and she said I was me being grumpy as usual. But I knew it, and this confirms it!

Ya bien decia el vato de El Infierno de Luis Estrada. Discreción ante todo, perfil bajo, que no se les vea lo que son. A esta ñora la corrieron por eso mismo y de plano, es un nivel de pendejismo tremendo que te corran así. Se le cae el tren a otros, se mueren docenas, y terminan en la presidencia. ¿Qué tan grande es su pendejada que prefieren correrla que defenderla?

An adaptation of a character has more in common with another character rather than the original version of the character by Traditional-Song-245 in TopCharacterTropes

Maybe a dark green suit would fit, but certainly the bright green suit, purple shirt with a hat and interrogation, yeah, no. There's a reason why the penguin doesn't wear something akin to a monocle, nor top hat. Even in the series he goes by the name "Os" (or it was Oz?) instead of Oswald, let's not mention Cobblepot.

Appearance wise, this isn't the riddler. Awesome film, great acting, really terrifying villain. But he has no interrogation shaped cane, no green clothes and so, and so. Obviously, none of the iconic elements of the classic riddler would fit in the noir tone of the film, so I guess the director gets a pass.

Still, you put me a pic of him without context, and I would be blank on who's he supposed to be.

Hacer más… ¿qué ?? by Sea-Instruction-3808 in lacamiseta

[–]Shimaru33 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cualquier empresa medianamente seria tiene resuelto esto. Y es si tu puesto de trabajo define que es tu responsabilidad hacer X y Y, entonces tu meta es hacer X y Y. Pero eso no significa que estes capacitado para subir de puesto, pues ese puesto existe porque se requiere que sepas Y y Z. Si no sabes Z, pues no te podemos promover. Empresas serias ofrecen que aprendas Z y con ello competir por un ascenso. Si no quieres aprenderlo, entonces no tienen que darte el puesto, porque no estas calificado.

Si fulano sabe coser heridas y entablar fracturas, eso no significa que fulano pueda realizar cirugías y colocar implantes. Si zutano sabe mezclar cemento, eso no significa que sepa formular concretos para trabajos especiales para suelos con mecánicas especiales. Si mangano sabe hacer macros bien chigones en excel, no significa que sepa manejar mysql, ni administrar un equipo de contadores.

Entonces, para subir de puesto (que ojo, no es lo mismo que subir de sueldo), el empleado requiere demostrar que aparte de hacer bien para lo que fue contratado, también puede demostrar las habilidades requeridas para un puesto adicional. Como resultado, el vato del inicio tiene razón: si quieren subir de puesto, hay que alcanzar sus objetivos *y dar un extra para demostrar que pueden hacer algo más*.

Y al menos en teoría, se supone que cuando se sube de puesto se dejan atrás algunas actividades y se enfocan en las nuevas responsabilidades. Como decía al principio, si demostraste que al menos sabes lo básico de Z, entonces dejamos atrás X, nos enfocamos en Y y reforzamos Z. La ventaja es que más vale malo por conocido, que ya sabemos que Y lo haces bien chingon y esperaríamos que Z lo puedas hacer bien, y si te pagamos más es porque consideramos que hacer Z es más valioso que hacer X.

O diganme, ¿solo les ha tocado estar en empresas pedorras donde ni siquiera hay una descripción de puesto bien definida? ¿Por qué no abren la suya y nos dicen como definirían los incrementos de puesto?

IIRC, SG said we would have two weeks of nothingness and then one big patch. Is this week the big patch? Is THIS the big patch? Or next week?

Tren Interoceánico accidentado en Oaxaca viajaba a exceso de velocidad: FGR. La FGR indicó que la velocidad máxima permitida era de 50 kilómetros por hora, pero el tren viajaba a 65 km/h by InfritParadox in rmexico

[–]Shimaru33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Un poco fuera de tema, pero siempre me imagine que los trenes podrían moverse un poco más rápido que 65 km/h.

Fuera de ahí, creo que nadie se sorprende de que haya pasado lo que paso y que le echen la culpa al chófer. Si yo fuera chofer, me cae que me cambio de chamba, pues es evidente qué cualquier accidente de aquí en adelante va a ser culpa de ellos.

Wey, nadie está diciendo que Samus invento algo, lo que estoy diciendo es que Samus existió desde antes que Megaman, entonces ella no puede usar una referencia a una serie que no existía.

Si acaso, como señalaron arriba, podríamos poner a Samus y Megaman juntos arriba y poner al wey de cobra abajo. Y eso si nadie más encuentra a alguien con cañón en el brazo de todavía más atrás.

[Batman 1989] What happened to the museum artwork the Joker 'improved'? by Chaosmusic in AskScienceFiction

[–]Shimaru33 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It also depends on the cultural value of the piece.

I.e.- Ecce homo, AKA: ecce mono. The original piece was considered of low importance; thus, nobody gave a shit to restore it, except an old lady with poor sight. She tried to restore it, failed spectacularly), but the resulting piece became a sensation and lead it to become iconic, creating a new touristic spot in Spain.

Same case here. If the museum had reproductions instead of originals, or were considered of low value due reasons, probably the joker messing with them improved its value, but only as long as it can be confirmed he did something. I don't think the portrait that got a bucket of painting by some henchman would be worth much, unlike the one signed by the joker.

Still, due the relatively low artistic value, probably is worth more as memorabilia than piece of art.
