Justice Minister Moro resigned. He is immensely popular and was doing a good job. There have been high-profile arrests and in 2019 the number of murders dropped by 10 thousand compared to the previous year, a decrease of a fifth. This is a result of many factors: in the Northeast cooperation among cartels reduced violence, but the reduction happpened in other states. Legislation wasn't a factor as there was next to no real change in this regard. He retains much prestige despite the scandal with his leaks, eternal hate from the left due to being Lula's nemesis and repeated disempowerment of the anti-corruption struggle by Congress and the Supreme Court. 
What caused this was Bolsonaro's elimination of Federal Police director Maurício Valeixo, who had been picked by Moro. In his final address he noted that:
-There was no legitimate reason for this as he had been effective in his post
-This was a violation of the promise Bolsonaro made upon naming him Minister, that he'd have freedom to handle subordinates
-Bolsonaro also intends to replace a subordinate of the director, the Rio de Janeiro superintendent, and possibly other superintendents, which goes against his spirit of giving autonomy to subordinates
-A replacement now would create confusion and harm the Federal Police's functioning
-Bolsonaro personally told him this was a political choice

Why political? He did not say this straight, but what everyone says is that it was to protect Bolsonaro's sons from investigation, and hence why the Rio de Janeiro superintendent is also involved. Their corruption accusations are petty for Brazilian standards but what's bigger are accusations they might be tied to militias. As always Bolsonaro's sons are his priority. This behavior doesn't come out of nowhere as he has few contacts in Brasília, having lived his career in the sidelines, and many reasons to be distrustful. Moro isn't someone he has a reason to distrust but his sons still came first.

French election happened yesterday. Charts by lemonade.
Comfortable win for all but not RN. Macron wish to show "democratic" powers are still strong as written here  >>/52055/ is fulfilled.
RN fell not just short from the necessary ~300 seats, but way short. They got about half of it.
I highly suspect Macron and co. (and even Le Pen) already knew what will happen. I think this is also a media stunt to chill those who would side with the "far-right", to put back into their places.
The greatest joke is this alliance of all the socialist parties, from communists to socdems. Really show how socdems babbies will always run to the tanky daddy to defend them from evil fascists.

What a mess.
So basically France is going to be without a function government for several years. Though theoretically the centre could ally with the right and form government but that does not seem likely. The central PM already resigned.

So then there is probably going to be a PM form the left who is representing a coalition of various factions that can't agree on anythign and on top of that need the support of the centre or the right to do anything anyway and on top of that the centre and the right can potentially up end everything and form their own legislation without the left agreeing to it at all(maybe, I am not sure how French government works and whether opposition parties can put forward legislation or not).

 >>/52172/
The left (purple and pink) with the liberals (center, yellow) will form a grand coalition, perhaps including with the "conservatives" (on blue).
Fascist brown shirts will be left out.
It would matter if there would be ideological differences, or different views in key questions, but they all agree on everything.
Besides a modern democratic state in the EU doesn't need functioning government at all, and perhaps not even a functioning parliament (they'll all vote yes on the matters the economical factors want them to vote yes anyway).

I was wrong, the PM always resigns, that's just a formality. So he could still come back as PM. But yes I don't think it will be in a Centre-Right coalition. Maybe the Centre will work something out with the left or at least parts of the left.

 >>/52173/
I honestly didn't check what the campaigns and proposals of each party were. So I am not sure how different they are.

Like the UK France is also heavily in debt but the French government is also much more integrated into the economy than it is in most nations, both of those aspects are fairly left wing so in theory there would not be much change to it. I certainly don't see a left wing government reducing government debt and reducing government integration in the economy.

The EU Parliament votes soon if von der Leyen gets another term as a prez of the EU Commission (which is basically like a government, its the executive branch within the EU institutions). The term is for 5 years.
Result will be in about two hours.

Wine. White. But we eat it, or drink it as juice, because not enough for wine, and we have neither the tools nor the facilities to make wine although I could give it to a pal who has, or even to a relative, but again, the amount lacks seriously, plus too much bother.
I dunno their actual type. One looks similar to muscat. Others I think Juhfark or something similar, Hungarian cultivars.



Jesus Christ this weather.
We have rain every day for a month now. Last week and last night we got a storm with constant lightning. I've never seen such thing ever in my life. Last night it kept on lightning for ~25 mins, with constant thunder (couldn't guesstimate the distance), until it passed over. Huge downpour too. Was a bit of blackout. It was weird with the constant lightning when the streetlights went out.
It was fucking insane.
It's raining again, half past 10 in the morn but it's dark outside like in the anus of a mole. Less lightnings luckily. Expecting more blackouts. Or brownouts whatever it is called.

Essentially it is ready. I might make it thinner, and/or coat it with varnish (so the oils it gathers from the skin, the dust that settles on the surface won't build up and make it dirty, so it can be cleaned and kept clean easier).
pic #6 is the butt end where I hold the scratcher.
The "rake" isn't sharp since I don't plan to flay my back.

Remember this, Bernd?
Decided to dust off this project and finish it. I changed plan and instead of this  >>/40038/ I just carve notches onto the legs, then drill holes through and fix em with dowels.
The third cross stick is still waiting. I'm hoping to finish it next week.
There are some work to be done, such as flatten the surface, or add a coat of linseed oil.

Ok, dedicated thread is opened.

Major update with the ship, I have to get used to modifiers again. I run into problems. Solved it but was fiddly.
Also I really don't like that baby blue water. Something has to be done, but not a priority. Many, many details and possibilities to add, still wanting to keep it simple.
I did not want to overcomplicate the boat neither, so no rigging just for the jib or how the triangle sail is called, so it don't levitate in the air.

Impressive. So the rig with the model more or less works. Shoulders need some working on?

 >>/51831/

Oh well.
Spoilering is tricky. I have to retest it because I don't remember at the moment. I think the big checkbox needs to be checked all the time, and only those small which images need spoilering.

 >>/51834/
Yes, I fixed the shoulders as well as some other issues. To make the rig I had to merge vertices at a further distance than I normally would as it would not let me make the rig with Vertices too close. I didn't notice until afterwards but that ruined the mouth and navel, so then I had to fix that but in doing so even more issues came up with faces that were facing outwards thinking they were facing inwards and refusing to be corrected when I tried so I had to do more work to fix that so I could paint them again. Somewhere along the line that failed to translate into Unreal when I re exported it and so now she has red marks on her lips. I guess what I would have to do is reunwrap it in Blender to get the image texture fixed.

Sadly I can't give suggestions or tips on how to form such model. I chose to model Capn. Bernd as a lego figurine for a reason. Each limbs are separate meshes themselves.

I think this ship looks /comfy/ and homely in a possibly nostalgic r low poly shot of way.

I wounder how easy would it be o make a pseudo-3D game with still screencaps of 3D assets in RPG maker? Like Donkey Kong on the SNES.  

sorry for Tor posting and replying to something a bit old, just wanted to show my love for that ship. Have a great day, Bernds!

Thanks.
> how easy would it be 
In case of RPG maker I guess a lot depends on the creation of assets. If it goes well, the rest is given by RPG maker. Okay writing is another thing.
> Like Donkey Kong on the SNES.

A new thread, a new offensive.

In Sudan fights continue, it seems largely thanks to the Rapid Support Forces cease-fire violations. Millions of people is getting displaced, guess where will they end up? Now that the situation is Syria starts to get normalized and people from refugee camps can return. I wonder on who's payroll on RSF is.

In Syria the situation is much the same. Except now Israel and the Hezbollah fights over the Palestinians. The first one don't need those people, just the land under their feet, the second one just wants to kill Jews.

On the Ukraine the AFU's counteroffensive is roaring. I cannot hear it due to the liveuamap only showing Russian action. But at least the Deepstate map shows nothing as well. How will they be able to tell people that this much promised offensive is on? Well I saw one article writing about the "tactical encirclement of Bakhmut, now the Russians are in trouble". Anywhere where the front is not perfectly straight one can claim there is an encirclement, but okay. Whatabout Avdiivka?
Here's a cool article from Reuters contemplating about the capture of Bakhmut.
https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/how-important-is-claimed-capture-by-russias-wagner-group-ukraines-bakhmut-2023-05-20/
Don't worry they establish right at the beginning U.S. Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin and NATO alliance head Jens Stoltenberg, and all the western experts say it's nothingburger. And they are right in a way, the high ground at Chasiv Yar and the ridge which separates Bakhmut from the chain of towns with Kramatorsk and Sloviansk are more important. But since god knows how many Ukrainian fighters were torn into pieces (I guesstimate it between 25K and 100K, maybe I'll make a post about how I reached this) Bakhmut was a very important battle.

> It seems that facility isn't that strongly fortified to hold, or perhaps there is no good route to supply anyone there.
It used to have the O0542 road and another one from Orlivka. They must've abandoned the coke plant because Russian pressure was unbearable, the local garrison had been hollowed out to reinforce other areas and/or general confusion had taken over their forces in the area.

 >>/51675/
I suspect that the northerly road is a dirt path (like the "second road" to Avdiivka) along a gully. Soggy to borderline boggy.

In the past couple of days I had the feeling the Ukrainian army is done. It's retreat from now own. More cracks will follow and they'll have to fall back, and then from elsewhere to avoid encirclement. And then there will be very little prepared lines at all. And then Ukraine will be "demilitarized".
The AFU run out of trained men (especially experienced), weapons, and ammunition. It is still a relatively capable army but not for the task this size anymore.
Then perhaps NATO involvement will happen, and some of the NATO countries will enter Ukraine to establish a security zone in the most Western areas. Perhaps they'll cite humanitarian reasons, for there will be another flood of refugees that the control of Kiev breaking down, and people can leave.
I can't say I can support this with hard facts. The freshly occupied patches of lands aren't significant enough. It just seems more rapid this year.

I think it's still far too early for that. Russia has been clearly winning for the past few months, and yet it can only manage slow, incremental territorial gains at a high cost. If it tried to mass troops for a "big arrow offensive", there would be no element of surprise and any deficiencies in officers, combined arms coordination and so on would become apparent. So slow advances like those taking place right now will continue, but maybe they'll happen in wider sectors of the front.

How many armies -- does it take to change a light bulb?
At least five. The Germans to start it, the French to give up really easily after only trying for a little while, the Italians to make a start, get nowhere, and then try again from the other side, the Americans to turn up late and finish it off and take all the credit, and the Swiss to pretend nothing out of the ordinary is happening.... 

What happens if a women and two men are marooned on a desert island?
If they are Swedish, the men will marry and ignore the woman....

This shit is hilarious and I totally missed it 7-8 years ago when it was relevant.
https://www.thelocal.se/20161112/stockholm-transport-heads-defends-gender-equal-snow-clearing
https://thebullelephant.com/stockholm-plunged-into-chaos-with-gender-equal-snowplowing/
So in Sweden they figured they had to make snow-clearing/snowplowing gender-equal because statistically men uses the roads, cars more, and women the sidewalks and bicycle lanes. Now it's not clear to me if they divided the resources equally or scheduled the sidewalk clearing first, but Stockholm got stuck, public-transportation failed - which was also used by women and children abundantly.
Does feminism transform the brain somehow?

Stop talking about exhausted UAE oil 😅😂
No one interested to come there along with ghost city concrete jungle Dubai yet world map is inaccurate since Mercator projection 1569 by west + middle east belittling Indonesia since, while in reality Indonesia The Emerald of The Equator is huge as Russia and even much richer than the rest of the world, our oil and gas only are much more than whole middle east.
Complete multiracial multilingual living around the world all alone since childhood I speak fluent formal Arabic too, aside Dutch and so many other languages.

Egypt isn't the oldest, even Egypt is very poor, very dry, far off the center of the Equator line.
Most highest humidity on Earth: Indonesia, meaning many much older artifacts has decayed much faster than just few thousands years Egypt.
And Judaism/Christianity/Islam are just the same dumb.
Even most of people know nothing about much older ancient modern civilization here in Indonesia before mega eruption of Toba supervolcano of Sumatra 75,000 years ago.
Including 25,000 years old Gunung Padang pyramid in Indonesia.

Hindu isn't from India either. Original Hindu is Indonesia not in India. 
Hindu in India and in Bali are totally different
Indus, Indo, Hindia, Hindu = Indus Islands = Indo Nesos = Indonesia.
The same with Astrology came from Indonesia not by the Greeks, Egyptians nor Aramaic/Arabs/Jews.
Judaism, Christianity and Islam are just frauds branches of modified Hinduism in India.
Real Hindu came from Indonesia not India.
Hindu, Hindia, Indus, Indo, etc = Indo Nesos, Indus islands, Indonesia over 17000 islands, exactly on the center of the equator line, the center of all civilization, all Indo around the world came from here especially because of eruption of Toba supervolcano Sumatra 75000 years ago bigger than Yellowstone USA, resulted today world's largest volcanic lake Toba Sumatra.
Yet, world map is wrong since Mercator projection 1569, real Indonesia is Huge as Russia and even much richer than the rest of the world.

It's similar to the Indonesian. There's a hill in the eastern border of Visoko (NW from Sarajevo), which quite angular and reminds one a pyramid. There are claims it is one, and there are some stones laying around that supposedly were part of it or something.
