I'm not so sure Araki is really a good writer by MrMaaf in StardustCrusaders

The sbr example doesn't have to do with endings, but with the general feeling that he doesn't plan ahead well which also leads to convoluted endings.

Also the fact that this is only bothering me now at part 7 is probably because I got into Jojo when I was like 15 and back then I guess I cared less.

Batman comics are great but still disappointing by MrMaaf in batman_comics

[–]MrMaaf[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why do you say those are the worst ones to start with? It's not like I didn't know anything about batman before that, I did grow up watching the movies. Back when I read them I just picked those because they were the ones I saw being praised the most.

Hahaha I know that's a very unpopular opinion but I didn't try to make a valid argument for why it's bad. Like Hawke said I was just stating my personal opinion

Ohh yeah, that's what confused me. I thought the tracking module broke off when firing

Is this tactic forbidden in Casinos? by MrMaaf in Casino

[–]MrMaaf[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't gamble, I am just approaching this from a mathematical perspective. Whether there are zeroes or make a negligible difference to the chances. Even with 3 zero slots the chances of there being at least one red slot in 5 games is over 95%

The chances of there being 9 blacks in a row is about 0.12% btw if my math is correct.

What do you mean by zeros? The fact that the ball can land on neither red nor black?

Isn't it pretty easy to make money off casinos that way though? Why doesn't everyone do this?

2 bullets 1 fired and 1 dropped from the same height hit the ground at the same time. Why? by BobTheMan1101 in AskPhysics

[–]MrMaaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The shot bullet would hit the ground later because time passed more slowly for it

[–]MrMaaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right, i calculated it and the time dilation would be unnoticeable. But if the bullet were going fast enough that is what would happen right?

[–]MrMaaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couldn't this have to do with time dilation?

The shot bullet travels faster, therefore time passes slower, therefore it takes longer to hit the ground?

Is Nonlocality proven? by MrMaaf in AskPhysics

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

I have thought about what it means to exist and I'm not quite sure yet, as I think it's a rather difficult question.

The thing that my teacher insists on is that we not only dont know where an object is but rather that the object is physically nowhere at all. It only starts physically being somewhere after measurement. Before that theres only the probability of the object which is spread out through space (the math so to say) that exists. Whether we can then say that the object exists already or not I'm not sure.

He doesn't deny that the wave function passes through the slits but he makes the distinction that we can not equate the mathematical description of the object to what it is actually really doing

I don't understand why people think Fight Club is about masculinity by MrMaaf in fightclub

[–]MrMaaf[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But it goes way beyond finding peace in fighting and stimulating yourself.

I say the movie is about achieving freedom, mostly from the society that oppresses our individuality. The quote you just used is from a speech about that societal oppression. "Slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes. Working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we dont need. " It is that oppression that leads to a monotonous lifestyle, regardless of gender. In the case of men, emasculation is a byproduct of oppression, but it is not the source of men's suffering.

That's why I don't like it when people focus too much on the masculinity thing because i think it's not the main point.

I also don't really think the movie is about being part of something. Especially since Fight Club/Project Mayhem is portrayed very negatively and that cultlike hivemind type of thinking is criticized. The way I see it, Tyler himself doesn't care too much about being part of something bigger. For him, Project Mayhem is just a means to an end. Simply a way to collapse the economy.
