  • If you want to play online, the latest entry (XV) is the best. It has rollback netcode for smooth online play and crossplay so you have a bigger pool of people to fight against. It’s also more beginner-friendly than earlier games, although its learning curve is still a bit steep compared to other recent fighting games. Also, the new additions to the cast, namely Isla and Dolores, are really cool.

    Since you own an Xbox, I wouldn’t think twice about getting it.

    As for my personal favourite, I’d say KoF 2002 but it’s not on Xbox.




  • As a Portuguese who was alive (albeit a kid) in the 90s, I can summarize this as we didn’t have enough resources (both human and monetary) to keep enforcing the U.S. drug war model. Since it wasn’t working and we were reaching a critical situation (like half of Lisbon in particular was filled with drug addicts shooting heroin up their veins), we turned to the experts.

    The article implies this was a decision made from the beginning of this epidemic, but it was pretty much a last resort because the other model was unsustainable for the government. Not sure if we would’ve adopted it if we had US’ resources.

    Also, just giving context here, not trying to diminish this accomplishment.







  • So many great new shows and sequels airing this fall. Personally, I’m excited for:

    • Frieren
    • Overtake!, mostly because I’m a motorsports fan
    • The Apothecary Diaries
    • The sequels: Spy x Family, The Ancient Magus’ Bride, Goblin Slayer, and Girlfriend, Girlfriend

    And, with considerably less excitement, I guess I’m going to watch Attack on Titan as well, hoping it’s the actual final season.




  • I remember having to use Internet Explorer to do some actions on the autoridade tributária website, like simulating and submitting IRS (even had to download an external application) but that was like 10-12 years ago. More recently, I had to do some stuff with regards to opening and closing my activity (I was on recibos verdes for a while) and did it all through Firefox. Haven’t had to do much else beyond this.

    As for seg. social, I just tried to log in and it said my password expired and I had to create a new one. But when I filled in the password fields and tried to click on the button to submit it, it didn’t work. In any browser. Because there was no fucking link associated with the button. So the button did nothing. I had to manually click on the “recover my password” link so I could a create a new one.

    When I logged in, I just clicked on a few things, even simulated my retirement pension and everything worked. It’s not much of a test, I know, but it’s something.

    Never entered fundo ambiental so I have no idea if it works or not.




  • Yep, felt the same way on reddit. Sometimes, I started writing a comment but then halfway through I thought to myself “can I really muster the energy to engage with people who just skim through it or aggressively pick it apart and write an essay on how right they are with sources either taken out of their ass or taken out of context just to suit their viewpoints?”. So I just ended up deleting it and go back to lurking.
