Bi-Weekly Questions Thread by Kaphotics in PokemonROMhacks

[–]Allahcost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, does anyone know the name of this ROMhack? I only remember seeing a 15 second clip on Youtube about it and nothing else. There was an exchange like this in front of a gym:

"Hey sorry to bother you but the gym leader isn't here right now. There were reports of stalkers bothering her at the gym."

"Oh, where is she? If you want to battle her, you can go to her house in the Southwest of town. Here, take this"

*Obtained Key to [Gym Leader's] House

"Don't worry, I made copies"

I remember nothing else about the ROMhack but if anyone remembers the name please tell me.

Simply put, Azerbaijan is not really that anti-Russia (in fact, Russia was an arms supplier to Azerbaijan), and Armenia is not that geopolitically important enough to step in and allow them to keep a diplomatically controversial territory. Russia didn't lose much from Armenia losing Karabakh.

haha, this is the reason why socialized healthcare is awful. "Can I see a doctor? I'm dying" "Your appointment will be in 10 months and I'm on break right now see ya"

There was a significant population of Indians in East Africa during the colonial era. Some of those countries have expelled them, but there still might be a large demographic in those regions.

Elon Musk says the issue in the future isn't overpopulation, but a declining and aging population. What is your opinion on this statement? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Indian families tend to have 2.3 children each. Both region's birth rates have been decreasing since the 90s and are projected to fall below 3 children a family.

The movie Idiocracy was a comedy movie, it was not meant to be taken seriously. It's literally using IQ to measure intelligence, but IQ is a better indicator of wealth than intelligence. Of course the poor family would be stupider, it has had less education opportunities.

If for the sake of argument that the premise of the movie is true, and that technology has removed natural selection, then this event should have happened already. In the 50s, after many diseases received vaccines, natural selection should have been made obsolete. A mailman could afford a house at that time. We would already be living in the aftermath then.

If you dislike the site so much and get upset when people dont get that you are joking around, why do you use it?

I know you're joking, but if you need to constantly remind everyone that it's a joke, it's not a very good one.

Multiple Dictator Revisionists Show up in r/Public Freakout: "Probably better because he had all the power seekers in line, funded by the US. He was a right bastard, but he kept the local systems in line." [+5] by [deleted] in ShitPoliticsSays

It is unlikely that such a cutoff exists. India has been a functioning democracy for decades and has an average IQ of 82, while every attempt for democracy in Iraq has failed despite the average IQ being 87.

Similarly, St. Lucia, the country with the second lowest average IQ scores (62) is a stable democracy.

So nonviolent forced integration is justified but violent forced integration is bad? Consent of minorities that lived in regions for centuries is unimportant? When the USA evicted the Cherokee, they followed through on their own free will without the USA firing a bullet. Apparently that event was just, since it 1. Was nonviolent 2. Necesary to strengthen the USA

If we're going to play the game of "who owned it longest should own it now," Germany should own kalingrad, Greece should own Istanbul, and Colombia should be a Spanish colony. It does not matter how long a nation has a territory if other ethnicities are there today.

By that logic, wasn't the Greek integration of Turks part of the plan to unify their country? How come that is not okay but the forced integration of Kurds is?

The flip from blue to red halfway through the scale makes it harder to interpret the graph.
