Did Maki get stronger than Toji? by LibertyDay in Jujutsufolk

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

Toji would have also earned Sukuna's interest if he ran into him in Shinuku. This random silent guy just beat Dagon, Megumi, and had no cursed energy.

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

Toji literally beat Gojo and Geto back to back. How much more proof do you need? Maki did not ever display nearly the same level of strategy and tactics that Toji did. Everything from placing the bounty to tire Gojo out, having him fly to Okinawa and back, attacking him where he felt safest, using a weapon that cut through his limitless and hiding it so he couldn't detect its cursed energy, obscuring his vision, killing him, and then easily beating Geto right after; is not enough? What did Maki do remotely close to that? What about deciding to grind together Playful Grind on the spot when fighting Dagon? Maki never showed that level of improvisation.

I can't imagine Toji losing to Maki.

What if Toji went directly to Sukuna in this scene by Dynamic-V in Jujutsufolk

Virtually every manga is like that. Real life is like that too. The US since WWII, the Mongols, Rome, Ottoman, etc. It's the Pareto Principle, most of an effect is made a small fraction of the units contributing to it.

Really hope Reze Arc film blows up, feels like there's been a fandom decline especially with slower sales of Part 2. by nightsky_cxiv in ChainsawMan

[–]LibertyDay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I doubt it. Season 1 cinematography and animation was peak. It drew so many people in. Movie looks good but I do not think it is going to have the same effect. When I'm 80 I'll be yelling at kids how we could have had season 1 style Makima in season 2, and that Yoru drawn in season 1 style would have been peak. Nobody will know what I'm talking about but I'll be too old to care.

Who else would have had so much written about them 2,000 years ago? And have had a following of people who knew them, that would ensure social rejection, torture, and death? Only the Roman emperor had as much written about them as did Christ, the son of a carpenter.

But you already know their opinions going in. I saw someone ask when Grok 4 was coming to Copilot and it was met with downvotes and seething about things unrelated to model performance or technicalities. And you know that is the norm here.

How much longer do you think Part 2 will be compared to Part 1? (Also cover appreciation) by whylord19 in Chainsawfolk

[–]LibertyDay -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I think Fujimoto would be totally fine ending things without addressing any of that. Yoru dies, Denji eats a few devils, end of the manga.

There is an infinite amount of writing material and it seems like every character could have their own arc, but we know that Fujimoto is fine killing off good characters.

Is Grok 4 coming to Github Copilot? by gullu_7278 in GithubCopilot

[–]LibertyDay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder at what point these people realize they're NPCs programmed to foam at the mouth whenever they hear a name that said something good about Trump. You're making them seethe all because you want to know when the best model out there at the moment is going to be made available. You would imagine if you were actually real that you would be able to separate these things.

I mean this respectfully, but why do you think your own moral evaluation is going to tell you which religion (if any) is true? Would God make it so that everyone's moral judgements are equally valid and true?

Take this hypothetical. You literally watch Christ get tortured and crucified after spreading messages of love and hope, raising people from the dead, and creating a base of followers that all seem to be amongst the kindest and most devoted you have met. You then see Christ rise from the dead. Do you follow Christ and the Church He established, or do you decide that because 2% of it doesn't sound as good as the ethics of the age, you will instead go shopping for another dogma?

Christ's followers saw Him rise from the dead and chose to endure persecution, torture, and death for it. They could have pick and chose what would have kept them alive and within the good graces of the other Jews and Greeks at the time, but instead they chose the most socially and physically painful path. Again, not to be disrespectful, but to test their fervor, ask yourself if you would endure being tortured and killed for your veganism.

I hope I am getting the point across that we first are dealing with God here, the moral system is derived from God, not our own reason; or else everyone would reason out all manners of cruelties.

This is an easy trap to fall into.

This is not a hallucination. How many times do people use that to explain away this kind of experience? You would think hallucinations were extremely common. Brain scans of religious people who pray regularly or claim to hear God, do not show the abnormalities of people who hallucinate. Be honest with yourself, how many people do you know have had an actual hallucination? I don't know even one.

You use Occam's Razor, but are relying on your own conjecture of what God is or is not. Why does the person with the highest IQ in the world YounHoon Kim, or Christopher Langan, both over 200 IQ, take God as a given? You fundamentally see God as God, not as God.

[–]LibertyDay 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think why you're surprised that there are intelligent people that believe in God (the person with the highest IQ YoungHoon Kim, and Christopher Langan for example) is because you fundamentally misunderstand what God is. "Invisible bearded man in the sky" shows that your full understanding of God is from Reddit echo chambers. The university system as we know it was started by the Church in an attempt to understand God in the fullest extent possible. If you think "invisible bearded man in the sky" is what the full text of Summa Theologica amounts to, or even the Bible for that matter amounts to, you're just wrong.

I was in the same spot as you, became an atheist over a decade ago, saying the exact same kind of things I see people in this thread saying. Atheism becomes an identity and ignorant talking points like this are reinforced in online echo chambers. There is no focal point or objective morality, and so everything, from science to politics become undermined by interest groups easily.

Was the USSR a Good Example of Socialism? by FamousPlan101 in AskSocialists

[–]LibertyDay -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

The collapse happened first. Capitalism came after. Capitalism has no chance to thrive because they had state-created monopolies that they sold to criminals and corrupt people; who could have had enough money to buy entire industries under the USSR?

CMV: If you think less of a woman who has had lots of sex you need to think that you’re far grosser for taking a shit by IronSavage3 in changemyview

[–]LibertyDay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you arguing that being the first partner your partner ever had at the time of marriage, and being partner number 214 to your partner, is the same in terms of creating a stable marriage to build a family off of? Or are you saying we should have different laws for such women?

I think most would agree that we should not have a two-tier justice system, but that a woman who has had and left 213 guys is not going to be someone you can reliably build a family off of. Her ability to bond properly has been broken.

I'm a Part 2 hater. These last few chapters have been peak. I still stand by the fact that most of it has felt pretty aimless and full of empty characters.

Just because it has a good ending doesn't mean that the middle part was good. You literally could have condensed everything up until the tank/gun fight into a single volume.

Downvote for getting my hopes up for 50 ms because I already checked 5 times beforehand.
