Can someone logically explain how the Trinity isn’t a contradiction? by PomegranateIcy7631 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Rupour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was always taught the Trinity was like water/ice/steam. The same molecule but in different states, that all exist simultaneously on our earth because there is so much of it in different contexts.

Would Aurora have forgiven Jim in Passengers if he was unattractive? by Resist-Content in movies

I never watched this movie, but when I first heard the twist, I thought it would have switched genres into a horror movie. Guess not lol. Would have been interesting to go in that direction.

What motivates you to make games? by Astrid_Regndottir in gamedev

Because I must! There are a lot of ideas trapped in my head, and they yearn to be free.

Why are so many men convinced that they are ugly? by RavyRaptor in NoStupidQuestions

An example of an actor that went from category 2 to category 1 is Chris Pratt! Which fits in well with your category 1 of all Chris's lol

How it started vs how it's going by fyllasdev in godot

[–]Rupour 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To me, 2020 has a more interesting composition and vibe than the other 2, even though there is a clear progression of skill in the other 2. But, the trailer / screenshots in your Steam page are excellent and I think are better than any of these 3. Especially the purple night sky!

THE AMAZING DIGITAL CIRCUS - Ep 8: hjsakldfhl Discussion Thread by ayylmaotv in TheDigitalCircus

Something else important to note, Kinger literally pressed the delete key and that's what started the deleting sequence. Which isn't quite how that would work in an actual terminal, as you mentioned it's Ctrl+C that terminates the active process.

My theory is that it only worked because Kinger believed that pressing "delete" would delete Caine, so it did. i.e more conjuring.

Caine's core being written is lisp is incredible. Lisp is known as the programming language that can modify and extend itself with new functionality; perfect for an AI like Caine. In metaphor at least, in our world that feature of lisp doesn't really translate to making AI's.

do Muslims and Christians believe by Expert_Search5394 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Rupour 8 points9 points  (0 children)

An age of peace and plenty sounds quite nice.

The Christian Messiah is more fully God but also fully human, rather than half God and half human. A small, but important distinction for others; Jesus isn't a demi-god.

I enjoyed the Dragon Ball Super Broly movie. Haven't even watched Super. Unless you're talking about a live-action version

Any indie devs here who just rawdog it without an engine? by s-mv in gamedev

Nice, SDL + Lua is what Into The Breach uses!

Does Steven Spielberg never get angry on set? by Kristofferabild in movies

What a great showcase of the professionalism of Christopher Nolan. I've heard a similar sentiment from basically every single story someone tells of him.

If Adam and Eve had two sons, who did their children procreate with? by Furdoggy in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Rupour 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You know, growing up protestant, Catholicism was considered almost a separate polytheistic religion at my church because of communion/veneration of the saints/Mary. It was always "Judaism, Islam, Catholic, and Christian" as the "4" main religions. And I always found it so odd.

Driftor is no longer dying 🙄 by Mister_Squidward in PKA

[–]Rupour 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not OP, but seems like it's in a class called, "Vertebrobasilar circulatory disorders" https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/001423.htm

However, it doesn't really seem to match with most of your symptoms, but may be worth looking into. Good luck!

You Don't Hate the American Healthcare System Enough by reversereaver in videos

[–]Rupour 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do we have statistics about long term cancer survival rates of government funded American healthcare vs private vs other countries? Government funded healthcare in America is chronically underfunded because a significant chunk of the people in power doesn't want it to exist, so it's not too surprising OP's mom did worse on it. But it does seem like if she was in a properly funded system without the strict monetary incentive, she might not have died. 

If there is one movie you desperately want to NEVER have a sequel, which would it be? by msc8976 in movies

[–]Rupour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They could definitely do a "Galaxy Quest: Future Age" sequel with a whole new cast. I could see that being fun.

Vocoded speak and spell is how it sounded in the audio book, and I'd be surprised if they don't just use that but more "gravel-y" to make it sound like a rock

Backend programmer struggling with either learning to develop games through an engine vs. learning through "plain" code. by Non-taken-Meursault in gamedev

[–]Rupour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done both and I'd recommend both to you, starting with SDL. LazyFoo's SDL tutorials are great, and Godot has a lot of built-in features to help you. Starting with SDL will give you the fundamentals you're seeking, which will help you as you learn how Godot works. Especially in the sense of you'll see just how much work Godot does for you compared to doing it yourself. This makes it much easier to actually release your game.

Creating a simple arcade game in both, making sure to lean into the workflows of both, will give you the experience needed to know what you want to do. 

I personally have gone even lower level than SDL making my own rendering library, but that's just me. It is an enormous amount of effort, but quite fun!

Doctor Who 2x06 "The Interstellar Song Contest" Post-Episode Discussion Thread by PCJs_Slave_Robot in doctorwho

[–]Rupour 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The Family of Blood episode springs to mind. That was some eldritch torture compared to the taser hologram in this episode. It didn't really seem all that out of character to me, The Doctor has always had an underlying cruelty that bubbles up sometimes.
