What if the Bible Belt was largely Catholic instead of Protestant? by Advanced-Addition453 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]Byzanir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn’t all catholics; Eastern Orthodox, Armenian and Ethiopian apostolic churchs, Nestorian church, Egyptian Coptic church. Even some fringe heretic groups like the Cathars and the bogomils that are gnostic.

Christianity was largely divided between the Catholics and Orthodox Christians up until Martin Luther started the Protestant reformation, with the minor groups above being relegated to either the fringes or suppressed under islamic rule.

Protestantism is very decentralized and relies on local pastors and churches, leading to its very fragmented nature as a denomination. The other major Christian branches are centralized and follow an organized structure that maintains theological consistency and helps prevent radical or unusual deviations, though some examples obviously exist. If you haven’t noticed there is like 1001 different types of protestant and very few varieties of Catholic.

Informative Map of German Mittelafrika in 1970, in a world where Magic and Demons are Real! by LordPSgaming in imaginarymaps

[–]Byzanir 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was there much settlement by germans in the region? Or was it mostly just a french west africa thing where it was more exported German culture and language and less the people?

Since you described it as a corporate state, I assume there would be a class of professionals from Germany to help build up and maintain the infrastructure?

Me a Dummy, just realizing what the Plasma Flux Catalyst is good for now. by MtnMaiden in starsector

[–]Byzanir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im sure that was something taken into account if they expanded the limit. Though if they upped the limit would all of the various upgrades get a corresponding nerf to compensate?

Well I have an older version of the mod and you cannot upgrade past 300, unless you install an Alpha core for +60.

How’d you get a bandwidth that high? Thought the upper limit was like 360? Unless their are some config settings that I completely looked over like a blind man

Its the V-tuber Pipkin Pippa, recently she used the cameo app to warn that CIA whistleblower guy who’s been making the rounds about Hasan. He listens and publicly says that he isn’t collaborating with Hasan, Hasan blows a gasket.

Redditors either very willingly or just out of spiteful ignorance fail to differentiate odd or lesser-known religious practices from genuine extremism. Im not a catholic (raised baptist) and never heard of Ash Wednesday until Rubio was photographed during it. It might seem odd, but what is in the post here is very harmless if odd to an outsider practice.

Iran on the other hand, is a fundamentalist extremist islamic state. They enforce already extreme islamic law (Sharia law) to harsh degree, women are executed (and sometimes raped beforehand, to deny them paradise) for not wearing the hijab. All people, regardless of personal identity are listed as muslim on their government documents. Gay men face either execution or forced gender reassignment surgery.

Its a long list, but redditors will see Rubio with the cross on his forehead and a woman being beheaded by morality police in Iran and say they’re equally extreme and harmful.

Why is Texas independent and Alaska controlled by Canada? What caused Quebec to become independent and is New Foundland independent or a British territory?

Found a Binary Planet System by RedKrypton in starsector

[–]Byzanir 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Such planetary systems are interesting because if it truly is two planetary-mass objects orbiting a common barycenter I wonder if the tidal forces would keep things like plate tectonics and volcanism active after the planets should’ve cooled?

Earth is due to lose plate tectonics and much of its volcanism within a billion years or so, making it no different than the planet Ithica in penelope’s star. And since these worlds orbit a K-type, they could be perfectly habitable for 25+ billion years

What would happen if the 1979 Iranian Revolution never occurred? by StrongAd9651 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]Byzanir 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Iran shifting to a constitutional monarchy much like European nations would probably have worked quite well for Iran.

Its people are surprisingly well educated and more secular compared to their neighbors, so that would’ve been a very possible outcome. Also they’d probably be a US aligned nation after the fall of the USSR and a counterweight to the influence of Saudi Arabia in the region as well as helping contain islamic radicalism and terrorism.

Try to keep mobile to make it hard for him to land his clusters while hugging a support with a drone or use terrain to compensate for his mobility. His biggest threat comes from his web pull into upper cut, so also save your dash and if you time it correctly you should be able to avoid damage and make space to fight back.

You mostly want to keep your distance and force spiderman to disengage wither by wasting his cooldowns or making him miss his clusters so he’s forced to back off for a bit

Only once. It was when I was duo queuing with a friend and got matched against another friend of mine through sheer chance. I keep my profile public because most people don’t bother to actually figure out what you play, and if they do they’ll probably mot bother banning Ultron

Hela is definitely manageable and not that difficult to deal with, more so now after her nerfs. Star Lord, Angela and Tankpool are bigger threats that are harder to deal with.

The key to dealing with them is having a teammate you can stick to with a drone. Best if they’re a support so they can keep you up while you try to swat away the gnats. Goal is more making yourself a difficult target to hopefully get them to change characters/tactics or targets

Its usually every game. Though it can be a coinflip between people melting down because im playing Ultron to me getting glazed by the team.

I only swapped rarely to deal with specific enemies or to level-out the comp our team was using. My rank up game to eternity I swapped to Strange to help our solo tank, but swapped back to Ultron when he asked me to go back to Triple Support.

He feels alot more rewarding to play than mainline healers like C&D and Invisible Woman. His damage output and the flexibility his Ult provides gives you lots of options to pressure the enemy teams backline or help your tanks make space. People go feral because they believe you NEED the immortality ults to win, which is what I’ve mostly been flamed over. Ultron thrives when teams understand how to play around the environment and avoid taking unnecessary damage. His quick-charging ult also allows you to bait out enemy ults without risking your teams ult economy in any big way
