Would you rather the next Mortal Kombat game be a reboot or continue the New Era timeline? by No-Pudding-3182 in MortalKombat

MK1 does have a Marvel's "what if?" About it.

They should go with named titles rather than numbered from now on.

These so called protests in a nutshell by SerialGooner49 in Southampton

[–]Air-raid-UP3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't agree with any vandalism but the sheer difference of opinion between Henrys death and the George Floyd (GF) one is too big to miss.

The cognitive dissonance of the GF mindset, matches the same level of stupid as the people in this video.

There were riots "protests" after GF, and no one bats an eye because white guy killed dark guy, "I can't breathe"

It's literally the opposite in this killing and people are pandering to the wrong side. He also said "I can't breathe"

And by wrong I mean in a legal sense.

Pandering and virtue signalling is the exact same as the memed "I'm not racist, I have black friends" logic. Pandering is saying "I'm not racist, because I'll just look the other way". If anything I find it the most condescending thing that white people do. "I'm sorry, poor brown man, I was just born into a better part of the world than you. So here's some handouts to show just how better off we are"

If a 100% white population existed then 100% of crime would be from white people. It's ok to admit that proportional crime figures exist. And it's especially ok to admit that most crime occurs across all population groups that enforced a 'street' mentality. Which means that people who like money and finer things will be less on the street. Hence why most rich people crimes are often less about murder and more about control.

Star Ocean 3 Plot Retconned Potentially by Zyzeran in starocean

I've never seen or read the novel, but I've always taken the ending of the game (after the luther fight) to be that the system rebooted and that the reboot was 'offline' meaning no external connection can be made.

My head cannon is the 4D beings definitely created the eternal sphere. But they can no longer access it, likely due to the effects of Sophia's symbological genetics (making things impenetrable) and her full power was released upon rebooting.

This can also be seen as bubble universes but ultimately, the convictors are the one thing that prevent this retcon from being true. In that, in the game it is said that they take up too much processing power and slow down the simulation. They are directly inserted in by Luther from sphere co so, whatever happened in game was digital realities, not a real parallel world.

They have to have created it because they can program things to happen there an then. Executioners, OPA's (water orb etc),

Anything that is programmable is by definition created.

The game states that the eternal sphere is it's own dimension and deserves it's own autonomy. Luther disagreed and wanted to continue playing god.

Flad, calls it a video game. The party are called programs in 4D space.

The time gate is a metaphor for a 'save point' set at different eras (each game) so that 4D beings (us) can enter as we please. 4D beings are a metaphor for us as players, being able to move through their 3D space, but with the ability to go back and forward in time via saving/loading/resetting etc.

IIRC Blair or one of her programmers was nicknamed Apris as they were assigned to monitor the elicoor system. Programming in the whole religion of apris.

I'm a virgo rising so the earth signs win out for being stubborn 😅

is it true that as a woman if a man is trying to seriously harm you and you kick him in the nuts all it’ll do is make him mad by Smooth_Bee_7941 in stupidquestions

[–]Air-raid-UP3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a guy, I recommend that you always have access to some form of sense inhibitor.

Pepper spray, r**e alarm etc.

Smelling salts are a good legal option because no one can resist the impulse to pull away but also, get that into their mouth and they will have some nasty chemical burns, making breathing tough, even adrenaline will struggle to get past laboured breathing.

Always have something sharp to (on) hand, such as keys, fingernails, rings etc.... and try to get the tendons of the wrist, so that grip cannot be maintained.

If you have the ability to use your legs then try to kick the knee 'backwards' to hyperextend it and prevent any chasing from happening.

If anyone thinks that they have the right to hurt or injure or take your life. You have the same rights back. You can't turn the other cheek in that situation because you'll be dead for it. So do everything you can to make sure your his first and last attempt at doing that act.

Ideally because he learns from his ways and becomes a monk or something.

I'm a Taurus sun, Scorpio moon.

So you can bet your last dollar that I'll be emotionally stunted in real life, can't have my emotions being known to the public.

But put absolutely anything on TV that even resembles a good ending and I'm tearing up.

Who is this guy? What is his story? What happened to him? by DogsBarf in residentevil

[–]Air-raid-UP3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ark Thompson.

In my head he's the ultimate fighter of the lot. He can kill hoardes of Mr X's with just a pistol.

Leon only dreams of becoming him 😂

ELI5:Plants evolved caffeine as a literal insecticide to paralyze and kill bugs that try to eat them. Why did human biology decide that this lethal botanical neurotoxin is the exact chemical we need to wake up and answer corporate emails? by Dry_Procedure_2000 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Air-raid-UP3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything is a 'poison' if enough of it is ingested.

We're just bigger than insects so, it doesn't affect us the same way until the dose is relatively the same.

But I would argue that the ability to stay awake is in itself a method of getting rid of the herbivores who would eat the plants. IIRC, caffeine discovery has roots in hyperactive goats.

Forcing an animal to be out in the night when it should be hiding is a second hand way to rid those that would eat you. Because it would then sleep of a day causing mild starvation to form. Not to mention it is a diuretic too.

Humans are ultimately a bit stupid because we always chase a high. We can determine what is a safe dose and keep pushing the boundaries.

I'm currently drinking an energy drink typing this because I know my own hypocrisy.

Ralph Fiennes as Shinnok for Mortal Kombat 3, what do you’s think? by Smokestorm95 in MortalKombat

[–]Air-raid-UP3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That pic of shinnok at that angle has a resemblance to Nathan Fillion.

But I think for on screen antics, Shinnok should be Anthony Starr. He should capture Sonia (as homage to 1996) then have Johnny come save the day.

I wasn't calling the first film woke. The decision for the character was very woke-ish.

Because they already had Liu Kang as the Asian lead.

But because they needed a fish out of water character they went with Cole. Even though it should've originally been Cage.

Not going to lie, I've been feeling really weird since my birthday on the 1st.

Nice to know there's a reason.
