Smash Summit is going right now on Slippi, guess Nintendo didnt care about that tournament? Maybe its because Summit is an invitational with only the best 25 players or so, while Big House was open to everyone and probably had hundreds of entrants?

are they using emulated software?

Yes, same software Nintendo is complaining about. You cant play Melee online without an emulator

Hello world!

Well the community is doing a $10k charity tournament where the winner decides which charity gets the money, all played on the Slippi mod.

we will see if Nintendo shuts this down too

Hello world!

Nintendo also got like 40+ twitch streamers banned for 48 hours because they were playing Hyrule Warriors "early", even though the streamers in those regions (like Australia) already had HW released on the E-Shop. It's like they don't understand how time zones work. A double whammy yesterday.

Was he the Ocean dub Goku voice?

Hello world!

Looks like all the Slippi tournament footage has been deleted off twitch. I bet Nintendo takes it a step further and forced everyone to stop playing Slippi on Twitch and YouTube. This is going to kill Melee when they cant even play the game with other people because of the pandemic.

I have heard that Emulators are legal, and have won several court cases in the US? Is there any truth to that?

A lot of that has to do with her being a female POC. They absolutely can't stand that she considers herself an equal to a white person like themselves.

Clinton is not in a position of power

When she was she conceded

This is bullshit even by "both sides" arguments

"Both sides did this "
"No they didn't "
"Well they might have done"
"No they wouldn't "
"Well someone would have wanted them to do it.... therefore both sides"

And reminder, this is an coup against Democracy backed by the president that you are defending passionately

I'm not defending it, I think the President should stop claiming the election was a fraud without any evidence and concede. But this isn't an end of the country, coup to take over the nation scenario that you are claiming it is, and Biden would be pursuing all of his legal options as well if he lost.

That's dumb

But the difference is Clinton conceded (before Trump even had 270 seats)

No one challenged the transition, the Obamas were graceful. Trump even praised them for it.

Right now Republicans are actively trying to encourage a coup and 50% of them supporting it is terrifying

Also Russian collusion with the Trump campaign did happen. A Republican majority senate committee agreed to that

They didnt physically hack the election and change the vote totals, which is the poll I am referencing, yet 66% of Dems believed that for years, probably still do.

Two out of three Democrats also claim Russia tampered with vote tallies on Election Day to help the President something for which there has been no credible evidence.

That poll was 2 years after the election... yikes

The Justice League we got was one of the worst movies ever, I am curious to see what Snyder wanted to do w/ Darkseid and his vision for the film, and I have no doubt it will be better than the trash we got.

However I don't have high expectations at all, Batman v Superman was not much better.

To be fair, Boob Armor is absolutely stupid. Extend the breastplate a few inches to avoid compression. it's not a good idea to have Boob armor either. You want something that spreads the impact out on as much surface area as possible, boob armor concentrates the impact

This is an interesting video explaining how the armor would be very practical in both medieval times and Star Wars

Have you considered that this is exactly what people are already doing and is why spread is so common in gyms? People assuming they're being clever when what they're actually doing is breathing heavily, indoors, with air conditioning, and surrounded by other people doing the same?

I go to the gym, that isnt whats happening, people are walking around monitoring and will kick you out if you take the mask off, because their business will be shut down if an inspector comes and sees you without a mask

---

Hello world!

legendary_zell posted...

If it isn't, gyms shouldn't be open at all then. Which they probably shouldn't be. Human beings have been exercising without gyms for almost all of human history.

So pick your poison. Wear a mask or exercise outside or in your own home. There's no third option here if you don't want to kill people and destroy gyms long term.

There is a 3rd option: Wear a mask when you are moving around the gym. Take it off once you are isolated on your own treadmill.

Gyms are responsible for a huge portion of infections.

Wearing a mask on a treadmill, facing a wall, 10' away from the nearest person is definitely not slowing the spread.

Wearing a mask at the gym is the only thing I am really pissed about. Wear a mask while you rotate machines, that's fine. But forcing me to wear a mask while I am on the rowing machine or the treadmill, 10' away from the closest person? Give me a fucking break.

Eh the "chosen one protagonist can't fail" trope is strong

I disagree, this was my worry going into the show, that it would be too much like Rey in the new trilogy, but it wasnt like that too much.

She starts off only being good at chess because of drugs, she loses a few times, suffers a lot of hardship and depression, becomes an alcoholic. And it wasnt just a believe in yourself and you cant lose! If anything thats why she lost at first, she refused to learn. After she had a few mentors and took everything she learned (plus had all her friends plan out her strategy for the final game) was she able to beat the champion.

She doesnt really have any of the characteristics of a Mary Sue: she isnt unbeatable, she isnt very likeable, has a lot of character flaws, and has to actually learn things from people to get better.

For that matter, there's plenty of history showing that the appearance of words (like the color blue) coincides with the concept first appearing (human evolution to see the color blue is a recent phenomena and there's evidence that some totally isolated ethnic groups didn't develop it until even more recently).

Small nitpick, but I would just say that it wasn't evolution, AKA biological changes in the brain/eye, that caused blue to appear. Humans could always see blue. It is true though that having a separate color for blue in your culture does train your brain better to spot it.

Hello world!

Here is a pretty good Washington Post article about it:

https://tinyurl.com/yyrfsmha

6. What do the reinfections say about prospects for an effective vaccine?

Not necessarily anything. In the one reported case of reinfection where the first bout was known to be serious, the second was mild. One theory is that the immune system requires a tough challenge in order to be adequately prepared to take on the virus. A vaccine might provide that training, and not necessarily just by producing antibodies. Several experimental Covid-19 vaccines prompt the production of a less well-known immune player, T cells. While preventing infection with SARS-CoV-2 is the ultimate goal, researchers say that a vaccine that protects against illness or even against severe disease would be very useful.
