It is usually not considered an easy language to learn because of its low level nature: it requires good understanding of how a [computer](computer.md) actually works and doesn't prevent the programmer from shooting himself in the foot. Programmer is given full control (and therefore responsibility). There are things considered "tricky" which one must be aware of, such as undefined behavior of certain operators and raw pointers. This is what can discourage a lot of modern "coding monkeys" from choosing C, but it's also what inevitably allows such great performance -- undefined behavior allows the compiler to choose the most efficient implementation. On the other hand, C as a language is pretty simple without [modern](modern.md) bullshit concepts such as [OOP](oop.md), it is not as much hard to learn but rather hard to master, as any other true art.
C is said to be the **"platform independent [assembly](assembly.md)"** because of its low level nature, great performance etc. -- though C is structured (has control structures such as branches and loops) and can be used in a relatively high level manner, it is also possible to write assembly-like code that operates directly with bytes in memory through [pointers](pointer.md) without many safety mechanisms, so C is often used for writing things like hardware [drivers](driver.md). On the other hand some restrain from likening C to assembly because C compilers still perform many transformations of the code and what you write is not necessarily always what you get.

Mainstream consensus acknowledges that C is among the best languages for writing low level code and code that requires performance, such as [operating systems](operating_system.md), [drivers](driver.md) or [games](game.md). Even scientific libraries with normie-language interfaces -- e.g. various [machine learning](machine_learning.md) [Python](python.md) libraries -- usually have the performance critical core written in [C](c.md). Normies will tell you that for things outside this scope C is not a good language, with which we disagree -- [we](lrs.md) recommend using C for basically everything that's supposed to last, i.e. if you want to write a good website, you should write it in C etc.

The Doom engine was revolutionary and advanced (not only but especially) video game graphics by a great leap, considering its predecessor [Wolf3D](wolf3D.md) was really primitive in comparison (Doom basically set the direction for future trends in games such as driving the development of more and more powerful [GPUs](gpu.md) in a race for more and more impressive visuals). Doom used a technique called **[BSP rendering](bsp.md)** that was able to render [realtime](realtime.md) 3D views of textured environments with distance fog and enemies and items represented by 2D [billboards](billboard.md) ("sprites"). No [GPU](gpu.md) acceleration was used, graphics was rendered purely with [CPU](cpu.md) (so called [software rendering](sw_rendering.md), GPU rendering would come with Doom's successor [Quake](quake.md)). This had its limitations, for example the camera could not tilt up and down and the levels could not have rooms above other rooms. For this reason some call Doom "[pseudo 3D](pseudo3d.md)" or 2.5D rather than "true 3D". Nevertheless, though with limitations, Doom did present 3D views and internally it did work with 3D coordinates (for example the player or projectiles have 2D position plus height coordinate), despite some dumb YouTube videos saying otherwise. For this reason we prefer to call Doom a **primitive 3D** engine, but 3D nonetheless. However Doom was not just a game with good graphics, it had extremely good gameplay, legendary music and art style and introduced the revolutionary [deathmatch](deathmatch.md) multiplayer, as well as a HUGE modding and mapping community. It was a success in every way -- arguably no other game has since achieved a greater revolution than Doom.
However Doom's success wasn't just due to its graphics, it excelled overall in all areas -- it had brilliant fast and gory gameplay, amazing level design (by John Romero), excellent soundtrack and even a revolutionary [multiplayer](multiplayer.md). The game's backstory was simple and didn't stand in the way of gameplay, it's basically about a tough marine (so called *Doomguy*) on a Mars military base slaying hordes of demos from hell, all in a rock/metal style with a lot of gore and over-the-top violence (chain saws n stuff).
Doom source code is written in [C89](c.md) and is about 36000 [lines of code](loc.md) long. The original system requirements needed roughly a 30 MHz [CPU](cpu.md) and 4 MB [RAM](ram.md) as a minimum. It had 27 levels (9 of which were shareware), 8 weapons and 10 enemy types.
The game only used [fixed point](fixed_point.md), no [float](float.md)!

Homosexuality is a sexual orientation and disorder which makes individuals sexually attracted primarily to the same sex, i.e. males to males and females to females. A homosexual individual is called gay, homo or even faggot ([females](woman.md) are called lesbians). About 4% of people suffer from homosexuality. The opposite of homosexuality, i.e. the normal, natural sexual orientation primarily towards the opposite sex, is called heterosexuality or being *straight*.

The opposite of homosexuality, i.e. the normal, natural sexual orientation primarily towards the opposite sex, is called heterosexuality or being *straight*. Homosexuality is not to be confused with [bisexuality](bisexuality.md) -- here we are talking about pure homosexuality, i.e. a greatly prevailing attraction mostly towards the same sex.
For an unenlightened reader coming from the brainwashland: this article is not "offensive", it is just telling uncensored truth.

Unlike e.g. [pedophilia](pedophilia.md) and probably also [bisexuality](bisexual.md), **pure homosexuality is NOT normal**, it is a disorder -- of course the meaning of the word disorder is highly debatable, but pure homosexuality is firstly pretty rare (being gay is as rare as e.g. having [IQ](iq.md) <75),andsecondlyfromthenature'spointofviewgaypeoplewouldn'tnaturallyreproduce,theirconditionisthereforeequivalenttoanyotherkindofsterility,whichwemostdefinitelywouldcalladefect--notnecessarilyadefectharmfultosociety(thereareenoughpeoplealready),butnonethelessadefectfrombiologicalpointofview.

Gay behavior is also usually pretty weird, male homos are very feminine and talk in high pitched voice, lesbians are masculine, have short pink hair, often also aggressive nature and identity crisis manifested by [tattoos](tattoo.md) etc. Most normal people naturally find this disgusting but are afraid to say it because of [political correctness](political_correctness.md) and fear of being [lynched](cancel_culture.md). You can usually safely tell someone's gay just from his body language and/or appearance. Gay people are also more inclined towards [art](art.md) and other sex's activities, for example gay guys are often hair dressers or even ballet dancers.

Soyence calls itself science and [gatekeeps](gatekeeping.md) the term science by calling unpopular science (such as that regarding human [race](race.md) or questioning big pharma [vaccines](vaccine.md)) "[pseudoscience](pseudoscience.md)". Soyence itself is pseudoscience but it has official status, strong connection to politics, it is mainstream, controlled by those in power, intentionally misleading and state approved. Soyence can be encountered in much of [academia](academia.md), [Wikipedia](wikipedia.md) and in other popular/mainstream media such as TV "documentaries" and [YouTube](youtube.md).
Compared to good old [fun](fun.mf) pseudosciences such as [astrology](astrology.md), soyence is extra sneaky by purposefully trying to blend in with real science, i.e. within a certain truly scientific field, such as biology, there is a soyentific [cancer](cancer.md) mixed in by activists, corporations and state, that may be hard to separate for common folk and many times even for pros. This is extremely [harmful](harmful.md) as in the eyes of retarded people (basically everyone) the neighboring legit science gives credibility to propaganda bullshit. There is a tendency to think we somehow magically live in a time that's fundamentally different from other times in history in which it is now a pretty clear and uncontroversial fact that the name of science was abused hard by propaganda, almost everyone easily accepts that historically politically constructed lies were presented as confirmed by science, but somehow people refuse to believe it could be the case nowadays. In times of Nazism there was no doubt about race being a completely scientific term and that Jews were scientifically confirmed to be the inferior race -- nowadays in times when anti Nazis have won and politics is based on denying existence of race somehow scientists start to magically find evidence that no such thing as race has ever existed -- how convenient! And just in case you wanted to check if it's actually true, you'll be labeled a racist and you won't find job ever again.
Soyence uses all the cheap tricks of politics (also not dissimilar to those of [greenwashing](greenwashing.md), [openwashing](openwashing.md) etc.) to win stupid people, it builds on the cult of bullying religion and creating a [war mentality](fight_culture.md), overuse of twisted "rationality" ([pseudoskepticism](pseudoskepticism.md)), creating science [bloat](bloat.md) and bullshit "scientific" fields to obscure lies, punishment of the correct use of rationality, building cults of personality ("science educators", the [gatekeepers](gatekeeping.md) of "science") and appealing to egoism and naivity of wannabe smartasses while at the same time not even holding up to principles of science such as genuine objectivity. A soyence kid will for example keep preaching about how everything should be proven by reproducible experiments while at the same time accepting [de facto](de_facto.md) irreproducible results, e.g. those obtained with billion dollar worth research performed at [CERN](cern.md) which can NOT be reproduced anywhere else than at CERN with thousands of top scientist putting in years of work. Such results are not reproducible in practice, they are accepted on the basis of pure faith in those presenting it, just as religious people accept the words of preachers. The kid will argue that in theory someone else can build another CERN and reproduce the results, but that won't happen in practice, it's just a purely theoretical unrealistic scenario so his version of what "science" is is really based on reproducibility that only works in a dreamed up world, this kind of reproducibility doesn't at all fulfill its original purpose of allowing others to check, confirm or refute the results of experiments. This starts to play a bigger role when for example vaccines start to get promoted by the government as "proven safe by science" (read "claimed safe by a corporation who makes money off of people being sick"), the soyence kid will gladly accept the vaccine and [fight](fight_culture.md) for their acceptance just thanks to this label, not based on any truly scientific facts but out of pure faith in self proclaimed science authorities -- here the soyentist is relying purely on faith, a concept he would like to think he hates with his soul.
The "[citation needed](citation_needed.md)" craziness that indicates lack of any brain and pure reliance on the word of authority is seen e.g. on [Wikipedia](wikipedia.md). Wikipedia doesn't accept original research, observation or EVEN LOGIC ITSELF as a basis for presenting something -- everything, even trivial claims have to have a "citation" from a source WITH mainstream political views (unpopular and controversial sources are banned); Wikipedia is therefore one big propaganda ground for those with power over the mainstream media.
Soyence relies on low [IQ](iq.md), shallow education and popular "science education" (e.g. neil de grass), while making its followers believe they are smart. It produces propaganda material such as "documentaries" with Morgan Freeman (i.e. people who are good at persuasion rather than being competent), series like The Big Bang Theory and [YouTube](youtube.md) videos with titles such as "Debunking Flat Earth with FACTS AND LOGIC", so there's a huge mass of [NPCs](npc.md) thinking they are Einsteins who blindly support this cult. Soyence attacks science from within by attacking its core principles, i.e. it tries to ridicule and punish thinking outside the box and asking specific questions -- in this it is not dissimilar to a mass [religion](religion.md).
