"Os intolerantes não estão seguindo as regras do contrato social de tolerância mútua. Como violaram os termos do contrato, eles não estão mais cobertos pelo contrato e sua intolerância NÃO deve ser tolerada"

Screen cap from tumblr @thoughtportal, meme:
"The Paradox of Tolerance disappears if you look at tolerance, **not** as a moral standard, but as a social contract.

(Highlighted in red) If someone does not abide by the terms of the contract, then they are not covered by it. (End of highlight).

In other words: The intolerant are not following the rules of the social contract of mutual tolerance.

Since they have broken the terms of the contract, they are no longer covered by the contract, and their intolerance should NOT be tolerated.

Inspired by 'Tolerance is not a moral precept by Yonatan Zunger."

Then, a response from @commasameleon: "Sorry as someone who teaches rhetoric this is a wonderful response to the Paradox of Tolerance. I cannot tell you how many times my students have had debates about this. This is the response. This does indeed fix it. I cannot wait to tell this to my classes now. Philosophically and rhetorically this completely resolved the Paradox of Tolerance and I am floored by its simplicity and angry I never saw it before."

The princess took an earring off and held it out. The raven looked at it. "Whatever for?" "You are wise and clever. Many princesses have dragons, but none has a raven friend." The raven picked up the earring. "Say no more." "Friends?" she asked when it returned the next day. "Forevermore."

Genuinely, this completely rules

－Recently, the game has been going viral on X for its beautiful undressing animations. I’ve even read in one of your previous interviews that the development team practiced stripping themselves as reference for the undressing animations. What was the process behind making the animations actually like?

Matsui:

I’d love to know how far that story has spread. It’s true.

First, we write a plot for each undressing scene, then draw storyboards, exactly as the original team did. Then the real work begins, because the animation is essentially all keyed by hand. A designer moves the clothing’s 3D model, frame by frame, manually. It really is pretty much like the claymation method I mentioned.

We did try automating it with physics simulation first, but it was a total failure. The cloth moved in a physically correct way, but had absolutely no allure. We learned a profound lesson: accuracy and sensuality are two unrelated properties. In the end, we accepted that humans would have to do all of it.

Then VR adds its own weight. In a normal game, if something becomes awkward, you can cut away or swap models between scenes. In VR, the player can look from any angle at any time, so none of those tricks are available. The same model has to undress convincingly no matter where you’re standing. When I described this to a designer at another studio, he said, “I would never do that.” I’ve chosen to take it as a compliment.

And then, yes, the part you’ve read about. The undressing motions themselves use motion capture, but the deeper problem was that nobody actually knew the correct rhythm and order in which a person takes off clothes. So, the directors gathered and undressed themselves as reference. “That zipper is coming down too fast.” “She’d pause once before slipping her shoulder out.” These were serious, sober discussions. For compliance reasons, the Super Real Mahjong Venus Returns team works in a walled-off section of our office – and that was the moment those walls truly earned their keep.

Leatherback sea turtles have a “skylight” on the top of their head (a spot of unpigmented skin on top of an unusually thin part of their skull which allows light to directly hit their pineal gland) which lets them know when the equilux is so they can start migrating to warmer waters

I think an aspect worth examining of all of this is how much gAI use highlights that people in positions of power are often not actually doing the work but getting someone else to do it and not looking too closely at the results And from that perspective, of course gAI looks like it's revolutionary
