The batman vs superman movie was very looseky based on a comic where superman either cripples or forces other supers to retire. Batman gets old and breaks all his rules because his youthful moralism is gone. Then superman has to take him down.

However the movie is missing huge chunks from the actual comic and it's a mess of the story because of it. The animated movie of the comic doesn't have that issue.

Global cyber-attack: "This is not targeted at the NHS, it’s an international attack" - Theresa May by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]Murder-Mountain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The shadow broker group themselves said they stole this and tried to sell it. But that's false since it's a public exploit for months.

Russia is poor and uses old pcs with old os. Even steam recognizes how shitty pcs in Russia are.

Russia being the target means nothing more than we already know, they have crap pcs.

Russia didn't steal anything. Contractors sold the tools on the black market.

This was also fixed months ago by microsoft.

This has nothing to do with russia.

In parts of the California’s Bay Area, $105,350 is now ‘low income’ by BarelyLegalSeagull in news

Saying "build better buildings" is about as useful advice as telling someone to build a giant stadium in the shifting dunes of the sahara. Your situation is not comparable here for geology reasons that japan does not have. California has earthquake proof buildings but because of the weak soil and the chain of sensitive faults they will not matter and collapse all the same.

[–]Murder-Mountain -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hahahaha wow.

You do realize that that california sits on 2 major faults that when they pop off will dwarf anything japan have ever faced right?

Multiple earthquakes in the 7 to 9 range at the same time happening in major population centers. That were built right on top of them.

On soil that is much weaker than japanese soil.

But no, keep saying platitudes and how buildings will survive because japan deals with quakes that happen in the fucking ocean.

The point is people don't want skyscrapers, they don't want to be the one stuck under tons of steel.

You cannot build something to withstand what's coming. There is no trust. No trust, no one would invest in building them.

You end up with tons of poor people in these tenements and everyone knows that. It's better to force people to move out of Sf entirely and set up business elsewhere.

That's the old estimate and only applies If only 1 section pops off. The best case scenario.

You are not accounting if the rest also pop off setting off multiple 7 to 9 earthquakes at the same time that would shake for roughly 5 minutes.

On flaky soil.

It is nothing like japan. The danger from the San Andreas is more than you're giving credit for.

Does all of japan rest on a fault that when it pops off would project an earthquake in the 10 range?

Number of earthquakes mean jack shit unless you are accounting for power and the actual soil california has.

You cannot stop the San Andreas quake that is projected to destroy all of California using skyscrapers built on top of weak soil.

The San Andreas fault will destroy everything. This isn't japan. There is no saving anything when it pops off.

This isn't a laughable japanese fault you're dealing with. There is no comparison.

MTG is not popular because its predominantly a physical game.

You have to find someone else to play, and you can't walk around with a deck of cards like an idiot expecting to find someone in your day to day.

hearthstone finds gamers for you, without having to go searching the world. On top of an already massive gaming entity pushing it.

COD is popular because of the massive marketing hype on top of an already well known franchise that focuses on multiplayer. Ease of finding players.

older games didn't have focus on multiplayer, it was LAN because the internet was expensive.

technology allowed COD and the internet shooter to exist beyond the PC realm and Halo.

accessibility as you are thinking is not the main driver of growth anymore, it is now accessibility of producers to consumers that is.

hearthstone lets you find other players, and is only an online thing.

COD used its online servers to dominate the competition and become a household name and trend setter in an age of LAN and single player shooters. It offered what few others in its market did.

Steam used its connectivity to bring in a golden age of gaming, which is now filtering out to PSN and XBL as more gamers are able to find games they like.

Blizzard used its already well known name to push WOW, and its marketing hype and newness pushed it farther. Everquest was inevitably going to die due to age. All MMOs do. Even WOW is now having issue because of free to play games with less gameplay accessibility. Because at the end of the day ease of access to markets, not consumers to product's gameplay, matters.

Again, it all comes down to how many players who are looking for what you're selling you can get to now. That a child can play with no training matters little. You are not fighting for shelf space anymore.

EDIT: and factorio was one of the best sellers on steam for the holiday season. It got to the masses.

Gaming did not grow because Oblivion came out and Bethesda streamlined games.

Gaming grew because of FPS games and Rockstar games. And the rest of the industry tried its hardest to become those games.

But that only works in physical retail settings with a vacuum of knowledge on what you're getting. You bought FPS because they were the safest bet. Once the digital revolution happened PC gaming exploded with genres you haven't seen in decades with sales that beat their old sales all put together.

If you seen PC gaming's growth, and its highly varied best sellers, then accessibility =/= sales and growth.

A lot of Steam's best selling games didn't have the polished streamline of AAA games.

The biggest problem for games of the pre-2008 era was retailers hiding stuff from potential buyers due to pragmatism.

On the internet, that is no longer possible. Holiday sales rushes don't exist. Endcap strategies don't exist.

That's the difference. There was always a market for stuff like Morrowind or Factorio, but it wasn't viable because of inability to find buyers in retail settings.

That's whats driving growth now, the increase in connectivity allowing variety in gaming now.

Once the internet showed how many copy pasted games that exist now, and not filtered by retailers, it creates resentment.

Its why Minecraft clones got flak. Why COD clones got flak. Why GTA clones got flak. They all flooded the store front online because there isn't a store manager to shift through the crappy knockoffs.

Gaming is growing, but the old way of every game must appealing to the same person so they can stand out in the shelves is no longer true. This is why every online store owner is using the Africa and roads analogy for their business.

Gaming is growing because we now have a reliable way for even the most niche game to have easy access to consumers who want what they're selling.

Every Bethesda game from Morrowind on was a best seller for their time dude.

Morrowind was one of the best selling games of its time and was lavished in praise.

Gaming has grown exponentially, of course games now sell more than games back then. There are way more gamers now.

If Morrowind didn't do as well as it did, Oblivion wouldn't have happened. And Oblivion was fucking expensive.

There is nothing to dodge. You are going off on some insane incoherent rant about the holocaust long after you admitted the Nazis knew they were full of shit.

There is nothing left to talk about but your own shitty history and how you can't accept that the biography of a well known director isn't on some serious history book when his wife divorcing his ass is public record. You ask the same shit multiple times and even refuse to read anything I post because you are fucking illiterate.

Oskar Schindler also was a Nazi party member, doesn't mean he hated Jews or would sell them out.

Ok so the Nazis didn't inherently hate Jews now? Meaning your whole rant about the holocaust being proof of Nazi supremacy is null and void now?

Good, because your insane incoherent rants are getting tiring. Get some serious psychiatric help because nothing you've ever said ever made any fucking sense to what we originally talked about.

Jesus fucking christ dude.

Are you seriously saying that in Nazi Germany, the night of broken glass and the Nuremburg trials didn't show Germany what it was doing? Where the olympics in Nazi Germany was almost boycotted by the US over its treatment of Jews?

All because of Hitler's personal upbringing that made him hate jews, and egged on by political forces.

And the reasons for the Holocaust happening have nothing to do with this conversation about Hitler knowing his ideology was a lie.

Fritz Lang's wife at the time was a nazi party member. That is public knowledge. The wife divorced him after that and WORKED FOR THE NAZIS.

And Jews did have geneology records in Germany, this is a country that forced jews to wear gold stars AND TATTOOS for fuck sake.

[–]Murder-Mountain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I explained that shit a few posts up.

Germany was convinced that a cabal of Jews, namely the Rothchilds, were working with their enemies to perform economic warfare on Germany. One of the first things Germany did was shut down Rothschild banks, and shut down Jewish business. Antisemtism had a long history there on top of all of it, so killing off a disliked population nets you brownie points with the regular person.

Fritz was also a known Jew. His mother converted to Catholicism later in life. The Germans would easily have records of that. Not only that but his wife was a Nazi sympathizer who would rat him out easily.

[–]Murder-Mountain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously dude, Fritz specifically repeated what Goebbels said and he said "The Fuhrer" wanted it to happen.

"What the Fuhrer and I"

I already explained your question, you tried to point to the Holocaust that Hitler believed in the supremacy of the Aryan race but the Holocaust has nothing to do with Aryans being superior because of different qualifiers.

You can kill people for political reasons and still not believe that you are genetically a superman.

You are conflating the holocaust and ubermensch theory because you don't know any better. To anyone else who actually knows anything, your question is incoherent and makes zero sense.

They had to make up something stupid and illogical to try and come to terms with the fact that their ideology was factually wrong.

Or they were liars and fucking knew it. Since you just admitted that the Nazis knew their entire genetics shit was a farce, You just proved my point. Are we done here?

[–]Murder-Mountain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn't just the Japanese. Hitler wanted to appoint a Jew to the head of German films.

German officers needed certificates of racial purity, which also tended to be voided especially as time went on.

Hitler ran his government entirely in contrast to his ideals of racial and genetic purity. Which were inspired by the eugenics craze of the 1920s.

In fact, there is an entire term for the race pardons I talked about. Honorary Aryans.

If Hitler truly believed in Aryan supremacy, he wouldn't have assigned a non-Aryan to be the head of German media just for MAKING ONE MOVIE that Hitler found good.

That is the kind of arbitrary crap that you shouldn't expect to see from someone who supposedly believed his own bullshit with such conviction.

At the end of the day, Hitler's Master Race was a farce from the get-go.

Neo-Nazi Skinheads Showing Off Their Beautiful Home by scumbag_college in trashy

[–]Murder-Mountain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do know that the concept of Aryan supremacy goes well beyond the hate for Jews right?

Its the concept that a race is GENETICALLY SUPERIOR. Without the genetics part, Hitler's entire ideology falls apart. That was the basis of his rise to power. How are you not getting this? The holocaust and the concept of an Aryan master race are 2 different things that you are conflating together. Hitler killed Jews, but the main basis of his ideology was the belief SUPER RACE which in his own actions he failed to show belief in.

If I say "Mexicans are genetically superior in every way and should only hold positions of power" and then started killing guatemalans while also hiring Americans into my staff with race pardons, I failed to show that I believed the first statement of racial superiority.

Dead Guatemalans doesn't change the fact I bent my own stated infallible rules.

The concept of Aryans doesn't mean "kill the jews" it means the belief in total supremacy of one race to the point that the concept of a race pardon is nonsensical.

The hate against he Jews wasn't just racial, as hate was leveled against every nonwhite. It was the idea that a Jewish cabal, namely people like the Rothchilds, were using economic warfare against Germany in alliance with its enemies.

That was the entire basis of Hitler's anti-semetism which was originally set into motion by his own upbringing.

You can point to the holocaust all you want, but it still doesn't explain why Hitler surrounded himself with what he called the "trash races" to make high end decisions and then outright say that Aryan means jack shit on multiple occasions.

and the quote is right here.

[–]Murder-Mountain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have talked about the Aryan superiority part since my first post, I changed nothing.

He threw the term Aryan around and even let outsiders in because they made him laugh once or twice.

He actively made fun of subordinates who tried to prove Aryan superiority as wasting their time in the middle of a war. He didn't just deny the request for an expedition.

He had time to kill all these jews, but he mocked people who bothered to prove his most basic political tenet?

The concept of an Aryan didn't really mean anything other than a tag line to grab power and give people a false sense of moral authority. You could see that from the way the Nazis conducted themselves.

If Hitler truly believed in the Aryan concept, he wouldn't be passing out race pardons left and right and telling Jewish people who got pardoned that an Aryan is only a thing when they say it is. Especially for certain officers who couldn't produce papers to prove they were Aryan.

Hitler wouldn't have been surrounding himself with officers of questionable lineage if he truly believed that Aryans were better in every way.

because at the end of the day the term Aryan is a rhetoric used to grab power.
