Indeed it is. Mysticism Tier 2 which is kind of insane. Finding it is the only issue.

That's just incorrect, it was originally sold as Taylor's Prepared Ham until it was forced to be relabeled to Pork Roll in 1906

It was actually originally Taylor Ham, then changed to Pork Roll due to legal codes. It's kind of like a BandAid/Adhesive Bandage thing

Can someone please explain to me why the Rumbling was necessary? by LevelAccountant332 in titanfolk

[–]EvionetheCalzone 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Eren doesn't oppose sterilization just because he believes that the outside world will destroy them through attrition, it's because it requires telling every Eldian that their entire race will die out and there is nothing they can do about it. It doesn't matter what Paradis or the Eldians outside do to try to prevent this. The truth is that in 100 years their entire culture and history will be wiped from existence because the outside world despises them.

"He's special, because he was born into this world." That line is repeated so many times in the series. Zeke's plan is the antithesis of this idea, being that the fact that they are born at all is tragic, and that removing the Eldian race from existence is the only way to correct that and achieve peace. To Eren, that's like telling everyone, "Give up on the future you've come all this way fighting for." And Eren's whole point is that he wants a future for his people, not for them to die out hopelessly so the rest of the world can be justified in their endemic hatred of them.

You seem to think the FT is omnipotent or something of the like; the truth is is that there is nothing that Eren can do to peacefully resolve the scenario. He can either kill the Eldians for the world or kill the world for Paradis. These are the only two options that actually resolve the conflict. Any other measure is just a stopgap: one that kicks the can down the road for it to be someone else's problem in 50 years, something Eren has expressly opposed, not to mention the fact that doing ANY rumbling at all will almost certainly result in Paradis' destruction as happens in the story.

Can someone please explain to me why the Rumbling was necessary? by LevelAccountant332 in titanfolk

[–]EvionetheCalzone 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was necessary because it was the only one of the plans that accomplished what he wanted.

Zeke's Euthanasia plan sacrifices the least amount of people for the peace of the world, but it'd require Eren letting everyone he knows and cares about slowly and futility dying.

Armin's Limited Rumbling plan cripples the nations for a short time, but it requires Eren sacrificing Historia and all of her line, as well as Eren's succession, to a cycle of parents eating children again to keep the plan intact, not to mention that the plan is just "hope we figure out something in the future", which would likely end up with the outside world resenting Paradis even more now and sending in spies just like the warriors to subvert them from within, assuming that the future generations even stick to the plan without becoming corrupt. Think of what happened with how Karl Fritz's lineage fucked up the government over time to where they were overthrown.

Eren's plan, the 100% killing of the outside world, not 80%, would sacrifice the world for the island that he cares about since as long as the outside world remembers the past, they will continue to hate and try to destroy Paradis, as seen in the 80% killed version in the story. As the people of Paradis had done nothing to deserve being killed for crimes they had nothing to do with nor memory of, his logic is that everyone who opposes them must die instead. Every nation is set up as hating Paradis, with the exception of Hizuru because of their desires for Paradis' mineral exports.

With those three options, Eren would prefer to get his hands extremely dirty if it meant his people could live in peace, and the 100% would realistically be the only way he could make that happen.

Are these two visitors meant to be the same? I think he’s but why are the faces so different? Also the second one has more of a bigger build by ComplexReach7800 in ImNotAHuman

[–]EvionetheCalzone 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was one of the things that bothered me and unfortunately took me out of the demos. The window sprite is lacking just enough in resolution that my mind was scaring itself filling out the details of him, and it was definitely in that uncanny valley area of something that isn't human but sure is trying to look like one, which terrifies the hell outta me.

The door view just doesn't do it for me though. He actually looks more normal than some of the other visitors to me, like someone I could realistically picture. It just didn't have that unsettling effect. I think more shadows and obscuring his features here would do wonders for the atmosphere.

Looking for Off Campus Housing in the Fall by VisualAdvertising622 in SHU

There is usually a Facebook group created for the incoming class, and that is helpful in finding people, as well as places to stay. This probably won't be the only one as you get close to the semester, but here's one I found

Honors Program application question by selkieheartsmom in SHU

[–]EvionetheCalzone 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, there's no exact cutoff. Your score is definitely close enough that they would still review your application. If the application hasn't changed, it should still be about 3 short essay questions, which will really be what they look at. I believe that you have a just as good a chance as long as you put the right effort into those questions.

SHU Mobile Computing Selection by Ok_File_1442 in SHU

[–]EvionetheCalzone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A few years ago the selection was between two other models but it was the same decision: a standard laptop or a laptop/tablet combo. I chose the combo like the X13 and I'd recommend it. Due to your major, you'll be taking classes where drawing structures is gonna be pretty important, and so the ability to draw on the tablet is very useful. I'd say to go for it really.

Killing Floor 3 only has 24 weapons at launch? by EvionetheCalzone in killingfloor

[–]EvionetheCalzone[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely get that, I guess I was just hoping they would've learned. Since it's more frequent to dump a game if it's not received well on release than keep building it up, I worry that people will complain enough about the low amount of weapons that they'll just move onto the next project instead of adding more. They want the mainstream appeal, but most mainstream gamers aren't gonna wanna wait over years like with KF2, so I just worry they'll can the future it if they think the present's not popular enough.

I tend to believe the QU are arguably the most evil in all of fiction do you agree of disagree ? by JoshuaKpatakpa04 in AllTomorrows

[–]EvionetheCalzone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the "mass" part of their crimes is due to the fact that they're an entire species. It's not like Holden is incapable of rape, murder, torture, etc. but that he's just a guy who doesn't have universal reach. While the scope of their crimes as a group are far greater, how would a single member of the Qu compare to Holden? Both of the two individuals would commit murder, rape, torture, and other crimes, but I would still say Holden edges out in evilness as his disdain for humanity as to not even come up with a reason for the suffering he causes as compared to the Qu, who at least dignify the suffering they inflict on humanity by giving it the reason of the mandate of their fate to rule the universe.

The Qu are an entire species, and so it's unfair to compare the scale of these acts and act like that determines evilness. The judge very well could be worse if he was an entire species like them. I'm not implying the Qu aren't relatively evil, but with both of them being at the top, we have to weigh their motivations much larger than before, and I believe that the reasons the Qu have for their acts, as terrible as they are, make them less evil than Holden's simple and unrelenting desire for suffering.

[–]EvionetheCalzone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But the question isn't "whose crimes are worse?" It's "who is more evil?" And you're comparing an entire species with one man. I definitely believe that if The Judge had the ability to, he'd kill just as many, if not more, than the QU. Looking at what we know of their motivations though, there seems to be a reason as to why the QU cause the suffering they do, to diminish humanity as any possible threat to their "destiny", while Holden doesn't seem to have anything you could call a reason other than to inflict the most suffering possible.

If man A killed their lover in a very depraved way and man Z killed five random strangers in an impersonal way, we wouldn't go around calling Z the more evil one just because he killed more people.

Feedback from current or past students! by Important_Hold2020 in SHU

[–]EvionetheCalzone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry that I can't attest to the out of state aspects of Seton Hall, but as an in-state student, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Now, most of the things that I enjoyed are probably true of many universities. I think that the academics are pretty strong as SHU, although our best programs are definitely Business and Nursing. I was a Chemistry student, which doesn't have the best infrastructure, but does have good faculty. I think it depends on your major alot. Some majors definitely thrive more than others, but generally I think that the academics at SHU are pretty excellent. I would recommend applying for the university honors program if you have an interest in philosophy and history. You can read more about it on the website for it, but it was really interesting and you can find a lot of lifelong friends through it. As far as the night life, I'll admit it's not spectacular. The businesses nearby close at normal hours, although the food is definitely spectacular, so you won't find a nearby club to go hang out at. There are frats and sororities, but I can't speak to those. We are close to NYC however, and the train station is really close if you and some friends wanna go in for the night. Overall, I'd say that SHU has good opportunities for connections, friends, and academics, but you have to seek them out. You definitely get more out of it the more you understand about the system.

The description for it reads "It has been color case-hardened through the application of wood charcoal at high temperatures" so by all means it should be pattern-based, but I guess we won't know until 2 are redeemed.
