The distinction between 2D and 3D is important.
2D is an ideal to strive for, it lacks imperfections.
Perhaps 2D girls are modern deities.

Paranoia is almost always the result of ignorance. Filesize has nothing to do with viruses. 99% of the time, if it isn't an executable (.exe) file, it's not a virus. It's probably a document that is made up of scans.

Not very good. It only covers high school topics, so it would be rendered useless after the first year of Electrical Engineering or other "electricity-related" degree.

And it's in Portuguese. Not that it matters much.
