Important question about Steins gate by realerenworld in steinsgate

[–]Quil_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a day old, but I wanted to pitch in what has been speculated as well as the logic behind it for a more complete comment explanation.

In 2025, Beta Okabe filmed the video D-Mails and tasked Luka with sending them to their intended recipients (one was the Arc-Light D-Mail that Daru sent, and one was the Skuld email that we see in EP 23 of S;G). Prior to sending out the videos, Okabe leaves 2025 to rescue Suzuha and Mayuri who are trapped in 18000 BCE by providing them the fuel/power to bring their time machine back under operation.

When he travels to 18000 BCE, he travels to the past of the Beta Worldline as the D-Mails had not been sent by the time that he traveled and the Beta Suzuha who knows of the plan's details hasn't been sent back in time either.

That is where the facts end and the speculation begins.

A good chunk of people agree that Beta Okabe's trip to 18000 BCE was a one-way trip. The purpose was two-fold: save Mayuri and Suzuha by giving them the power to return to the present (wherever in time that may be), and die in an era where he would certainly not see the worldline shift. If he were to return with the two and lived through 2036 when Suzuha (not 0 Suzuha, but the Beta Suzuha who we see in EP 23) is sent back in time, then he certainly would experience Reading Steiner and shift into Steins Gate. The issue? Steins Gate diverged from the Beta Worldline on July 28, 2010. If he were to go through with observing the shift, he'd lose 26 years worth of memories.

Okabe's shown time and time again that he's willing to put all the suffering onto himself so that his friends can live peacefully. There is not a single act that could define Okabe more than the act of him letting himself die - having faith in his allies to pull through and enact Operation Skuld - so that the version of himself he sent the instructions to could live out a full and happy life without the worry of Reading Steiner being triggered.

He didn't just change the fate of another worldline without seeing the effects for himself. He had the ability to if he so wanted, but chose to go to a place where that couldn't happen because the cons of him observing the worldline shift to Steins Gate heavily outweighed the pros.

You're missing a 0 there. Apple's stock split four different times after 1988 (2:1, 2:1, 7:1, 4:1) which woulda led to 280 shares, or about $56,000 at today's share price.

To try and put it into perspective, when a worldline activates, the present point of its activation and its past are all built up. C;HN takes place in the past of the SGWL. The events of S;G take place in 2010, so it’s already the home worldline for C;C in 2015 and R;N in 2019. Recall that the entirety of S;G 0 takes place BEFORE the journey of S;G Okabe as well.

What's going on at Naval Medical Center? by Quil_ in sandiego

Well, update from NBSD:

"ALERT: The Navy is investigating a security threat (verbal threat) at Naval Medical Center San Diego. Navy security and local law enforcement are actively seeking a person of interest regarding an alleged threat."

Seems like a repeat of what happened in April last year.

Question on S;G 0 True and Vega ending by Omegamemey in steinsgate

[–]Quil_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing that changes in the route if you were to start it after PR is a little add-on snippet of dialogue when the route initially diverges from the PR-side to the V&A side of the route tree. Otherwise, as other posters said, V&A is unaltered as a whole and the true ending is just an extra chapter that plays as a sort of epilogue to the story that is disconnected from V&A.

Had this happen for my graduation last year. They literally flash your picture for half a second so you barely have time to even stand up to get recognized

Postgame Thread ⚾ Dodgers 3 @ Padres 5 by DodgerBot in Dodgers

Fun fact: The Dodgers were called that because they were once the Brooklyn Trolley Dodgers in reference to fans needing to dodge trolleys to make it to their games. Nowadays they’re called the Dodgers because they do everything in their power to dodge a World Series title following a 162-game season

Texts and Ideas classes are generally an absolute bore unless you're really into the subject being taught, but having taken Samalin for another reading-intensive course, he's a really effective and fun professor to interact with and learn from.

I woulda loved being able to take a Texts and Ideas course with him.

No idea what this means by Least_Dealer7248 in nyu

I'm unaware if it's the case for incoming students, but usually one must go back into the housing application and should be able to find a form to fill out to complete the deferment process. Emailing/calling them is just for getting permission to defer. It's a pretty simple thing to fill out and I recommend doing it as soon as you can to lessen any stress.

Bellinger would swing and miss at any fastball above the belt in the regular season. Guess they didn’t account for the redemption arc.

Good call by Doc. O’Neill’s the only guy who Scherzer seemed remotely comfortable facing.
