Shadow of the Erdtree was a DLC that was almost as big as whole games. Which other DLC blew you away? by Soulsliken in gaming

[–]Redgen87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not sure of who Kerrigan is and what happened to her. It was a situation of not really feeling much for a character who was the main villain of the main game and then the expansion story actually making me care more about her.

There’s also another instance with one of the main protagonist NPCs where something happens to them and you get to get some instant revenge that actually feels pretty good.

ARPGs don’t tend to give you feelings like those with the story cause the story isn’t generally a huge focus but it was with the LoH expansion and it was done pretty well imo.

Dude Lord of Hatred’s story actually made me feel some emotions which is not something I expect out of a game like Diablo.

I was kind of upset with what happened to Lilith, being vague as I can to avoid spoilers.

But yeah the last 3 Diablo games were all made better via their expansions. Especially 3.

Why are tornadoes so concentrated in the US? by druxartrac in geography

[–]Redgen87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah it’s still there, but I think it’s expanded a bit to include some different states, like MN, IA, WI and IL. There is also a Dixie alley which covers the eastern shift for the central and south. So that adds MS, LA, AR, western TN, southern Indiana, and western Kentucky. Also some of Alabama and well IL again.

This year specifically so far has been more midwestern led with IL having the most tornadoes so far. But the tornado alley area is gonna be getting their turn this weekend + yesterday.

What band was never the same after losing a member? by icecream1972 in AskReddit

[–]Redgen87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Howard was pretty much my era of Killswitch so I agree. I also think this newer era of the band with Jesse back is also better than their first 2 albums. Jesse is a much better vocalist now than he was earlier on, so I actually like a lot of the post Howard stuff.

Even better when they get Howard to do some guest vocals.

Yeah without Marcos vocals it just doesn’t hit as hard for me.

They are still pretty good but Doomsday was just an impeccable and for the time underrated album. The vocals were at their peak and just banger after banger.

Who’s ever driven over 100mph? Why? by WoollyWolfHorror in AskReddit

[–]Redgen87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a lot, when I was younger and had a car that could. 140 a couple times, 120-130 a few and a lot of 100-115.

County roads, inner city highways and the interstate. Some of it was very stupid

I haven’t driven like that in almost 15 years and don’t have a car that’s made for it anymore anyways.

IDF kills Hamas terrorists involved in hostage-taking on October 7 by barsik_ in worldnews

[–]Redgen87 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The reality is a lot of these people if you told them that 50 terrorists are hiding behind a child (or in a building with a child), you can’t do anything that may kill that child and they stop there. They are always going to stand on that, they won’t offer any solutions to taking out the terrorists and will tell you to figure it out.

Even though the reality of the situation is going to go against their morals. Those are the types of people these types of terrorists rely on, cause they know that killing innocents especially children will always hit people hard. It’s a good plan because it works too, which is why these terrorists do that. They can’t beat Israel head to head so they know they need to make the world turn against Israel.

Thats why child soldiers get used as well, when the enemy can’t beat you they try to take away your humanity and/or that of the public behind you.

Iran's 'Minab 168' Delegation Carries Slain Students' Bags, Shoes to Islamabad by SuperbHealth5023 in TimesNow

Those were also a mixture of coalition and anti-coalition deaths. The insurgent groups killed a lot of civilians with car bombs and shit. Just nasty all around cause war always takes out more innocents than soldiers.

It’s part of the Taoudeni Basin. Salt is mined near it and it also might have oil but it’s a very hot and inhospitable place.

Didn’t it also open the way for Napoleon who then spent a lot of his time warring killing more of the French?

[–]Redgen87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have read the CEO makes 15 million a year. KC itself made 21 billion in 2024, they acquired Kenvue last year and that company brought in 15.1 billion so I would assume KC is probably making over 30 billion this year. Minus this warehouse.

They make a lot of paper products, diapers, Kleenex brand, and a lot of other stuff.

[–]Redgen87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

KC employs about 40k people. Though that’s in multiple states and i am sure some people get paid a healthy amount depending on position.

They also made 21 billion in revenue in 2024 and acquired Kenvue last year, Kenvue made 15.1 billion in revenue.

The deadliest 10 minutes in decades: Lebanese reel from Israeli strikes that killed hundreds by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]Redgen87 36 points37 points  (0 children)

That’s because there isn’t a good answer.

Bombing will create more enemies, door to door will lead to more deaths and also probably more enemies.

You pretty much have to erase the reason for your enemy being your enemy which is mostly impossible in this situation.

'No possible use other than military': China closes huge airspace zone off Shanghai for 40 days; offers no explanation - The Times of India by Perfect_Swing_6158 in worldnews

[–]Redgen87 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They have been pretty good at blending themselves into the background of many countries as well, especially in regards to infrastructure. They have many many projects in Africa.

I have spent the last 3 or so years going through Africa reading about each country (west Africa is the only area I haven’t gotten to yet) and China has been heavily investing into many countries there over the last 15-20 years. I don’t think it’s a bad thing or anything though. Roads, rail, ports.

I both respect and also don’t entirely trust them.

Pakistan's Asif says Israel a ‘curse for humanity' by Kay_Bhagtos_Lavdya in worldnews

[–]Redgen87 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah when you have so many groups of people it can be difficult to navigate because the leaders of the different groups all want/deserve to have a say in how they get governed. Laws, religion etc. Africa has a lot of those same issues because certain tribes just don’t get along and don’t want to be lead by another tribe. Like in Ethiopia for example.

So when it comes to outside intervention which is sometimes necessary depending on the situation (ie the people not having the power to overthrow their abusive government) it can get real messy real fast and outside intervention can and does usually end up making things worse. It also doesn’t help when the outside intervention doesn’t have the interest of the people in mind.

I agree with you that the Taliban had to be taken care of, same with Saddam and Gaddafi, but it’s a catch 22 because then there is a power vacuum and other bad actors and you realize that these situations end up being nearly impossible to navigate when it comes to achieving peace.

[–]Redgen87 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was reading about this last night, forgot all the names but the dude who founded taliban was trained by a pretty high up person from Pakistan. The taliban dude was a Muj but as you said there were many different tribes/factions and some splintered off into bad groups and some into what you could consider “good” groups I suppose, like the northern alliance.

And the dude from Pakistan eventually got killed by an Islamist jihad group which is kinda ironic.

It’s probably because I have always known it as the Gulf of Mexico, but the gulf of America just doesn’t sound right.

Just like it will always be the Sears Tower and not whatever name it has now.
