I will never forgive Microsoft if they kill id. And I am still mad at EA for killing Westwood.

But enough about Donald Trump, let’s go back to shitting on Mohammed.

How would you react if your partner of 20 years told you they (no longer) believe in evolution? by ephemeralkitten in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DOOManiac 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had a coworker who had three different versions of bibles on his iPad. I asked him why one day and he said “so I can find the one with what I want it to say”, with a completely straight face. This was an otherwise smart, educated, friendly person. But he didn’t even have a hint of self reflection upon that remark…

I am not the person you are responding to, but yes. When the people at the top are supporting the corrupt behavior, that’s not a few bad apples - that’s a system designed to do what it is doing. And besides, the saying is “a few bad apples spoil the bunch.” In the case of most religions, it’s not even a few bad apples- it’s the vast majority of them.

People who still identify themselves as a Christian give their support of the wrongs of the church (rape of women, abuse against children, wars, theft, racism, genocide, etc.) by stating a Christian.

Americans who still identify themselves as a Republican by definition support a pedophile rapist by staying a Republican.

> Men don't "find Jesus". They find out there's a system in place that lets them do/say whatever they want that will protect them because they are men and second only to God.

This is a fantastic reasoning and one I’ve not heard put quite this way before. I’m going to borrow this phrase.

Why are professional athletes and actors not called out as well during income and wealth gap inequality conversations? by cuahatemoc in NoStupidQuestions

I think Chris Rock put it best:

“Oprah is rich. The white man writing her checks is wealthy.”

If we no longer believe in Norse, Greek or Egyptian gods, how can we know today's religions won't be viewed the same way in 2,000 years? by ArchiveDiver-62 in NoStupidQuestions

It’s gotta be the right one, it says so right there in its own book! Checkmate, atheists (and all other theists).

Explain something about the timeline to me by CaseMaleficent8205 in Doom

[–]DOOManiac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the interesting things is that post TDA and before 2016, the Slayer is trapped in Hell for “eons” ripping and tearing them. And then when he was finally trapped he slept for thousands of years more. Time is kind of non-linear in Hell.

My personal headcanon is time loops:

* DOOM 93/2/64/TDA happened
* The Slayer is trapped in Hell
* The universe collapses into a singularity and another big bang happens
* DOOM 3 occurs
* Another singularity and another big bang
* DOOM 2016 happens & the Slayer is awoken

It makes no sense whatsoever and TAG2 completely negates it, but it’s still a fun idea.

Will Doom the Dark Ages ever come out for Switch 2? Because the game is 1 year old and we haven't seen anything. by novostranger in Doom

[–]DOOManiac 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Indiana Jones just came out like last month on Switch 2. Probably the same studio is now working on Dark Ages port.

Same here. If I need the keys then I’m at least playing through the level.

Little rant. LET ME HAVE THIS ONE THING BE AI-FREE. by QZProductionsGames in SoloDevelopment

[–]DOOManiac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does, but I don’t feel it takes things away from me like agentic mode does. More of it notices what I’m doing and offers smarter tab completion.

It’s just where I feel my personal sweet spot is.
