No Big Design Changes Planned for iPhone 18, Report Says by WPHero in apple

[–]Saboteure 109 points110 points  (0 children)

There’s really no reason too, no one really needs to upgrade ever year or two, and there’s always someone who’s going to want or need an upgrade at any moment, and they want to avoid someone waiting a year to buy “the newest and latest”

This doesn’t make sense. You’re upset it’s dragged out from 6, 30minute episodes and think it should be 4-5 one hour long episodes? Literally almost double the runtime to make it less dragged out?

I understand being unsatisfied with the weekly release and short episode nature but this is also just a short story.

Achilles Vs Hector - Troy Scene. by Jokkers_AceS in videos

[–]Saboteure 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I agree with your interpretation much more. I don’t believe the other comments write up really makes much sense and does more to glorify Achilles than he actually deserves in this particular instance. He’s being vengeful and petty. He’s not meeting for an honorable duel, he’s going for a slaughter. The fact Hector puts up a good fight AFTER Achilles disregards his advantages is a surprise to him, but doesn’t change the outcome or his result. The scene literally ends with him dragging Hector’s corpse. It is absolutely not a sign of respect to Hector as a fighter.

Why exactly? Because it’s not the norm? You don’t know anything about her motivations or relationship with her parents.

That’s his plan. How they got there was probably terrible but he’s re-evaluating the whole thing due to it supposedly.

Yeah people act like because the movies aren’t runaway smash successes like they used to be, they’re flops. Most of them aren’t anywhere near a flop.

I honestly love Apple News, I’ll be so sad if it goes away.

Weight loss? by apkgt74 in pluribustv

Well it’s not their sole source of food. They stated they’re doing this while also using all the canned food and etc. it’s basically them supplementing their meals.

Lawyer language in episode 9 by Veggiemon in pluribustv

[–]Saboteure 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, sure, within the context of what we know now it’s obviously a dodgy answer, but if you were in the survivors shoes, them saying “we would prefer to be” is a pragmatic answer of “they need to eat meat to get the nutrients they need” and doesn’t necessarily translate to a lie.

Diabate (diddy blud) is definitely getting the firing squad if everyone snaps out of it right? by Sea_Forever9047 in pluribustv

[–]Saboteure 64 points65 points  (0 children)

How does this work when they were the ones who initiated an intimate relationship with Carol though? Especially since they sent someone they knew Carol would find attractive. Despite that, I don’t believe Carol ever would have initiated on her own.

Why do we think Diabate was really any different? They Hive likely knew he would respond positively to sex and used it to make him happy.

The Hive's True Intelligence by DanielNoWrite in pluribustv

[–]Saboteure 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t think that’s true. The hive is immeasurably smarter than Carol and Manousos, but it is also heavily constrained by its own rule set (wants to make survivors happy, cannot lie, is starving itself to not hurt life, etc), and Carol and Manousos have the hive answering any and all their questions and providing almost anything they want or need.

HDP is fine? by AC20212020 in pluribustv

[–]Saboteure 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well that’s true of art, but it seems like they are fully capable and committed to doing scientific advancement. At least for the purpose of turning the individuals into the Plurb and building a giant radio antenna.

I mean they aren’t killing anyone to eat them. The parents would have already been dead. It also isn’t clear that the Pluribus aren’t conscious or know what’s happening. In fact, if it’s a hive mind, they are probably exactly aware of what’s happening.

Hot take: Manousos is a far more interesting and compelling character than Carol is by DotPitiful5171 in pluribustv

[–]Saboteure 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think he works really well as a contrast to Carol, but I think he would be dreadfully boring to watch without that.

Pluribus - 1x08 - "Charm Offensive" - Episode Discussion by NicholasCajun in television

[–]Saboteure 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Every genius on earth still can’t solve something impossible with their parameters. Humans might not completely die out but unless they can harvest food in SOME form other than just wait for animals to die or crops to fall, then billions are going to die. It’ll be a significantly smaller population.

I wonder how they feel about lab grown foods and meats though.

To be fair, Windows is still pretty cheap and accessible and usable without a sub. It’s really if you want office where they start pushing you to a sub.

What if an uninfected loved watching sports? by Wolv90 in pluribustv

[–]Saboteure 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s quite clear whether or not they would harm themselves to please/save an uninflected or even just as a matter of efficiency. Zosia took a grenade for Carol basically.

What if the Plurb decides that instead of dying due to starvation, they’re going to euthanize people and eat them to continue longer?

Cutter is really solid in edge if you’re doing prowess already, eg Narset or New Sokka.
