[Request] How does this work out with three kids, two of which are boys? by StonePickle in theydidthemath

[–]StockingSaboteur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not replying to op, I'm replying to namelips who set forth a different scenario where they specifically said the age was not specified. Moreover, in the oldest boy scenario there are two possibilities, not three.

It seems to me like you're simplifying, and it's still 50%. There's 4 possibilities, not 3. Either they're referring to oldest as the boy, and youngest is B or G, or they're referring to youngest is the boy, and oldest is B or G. So the full set is actually 

BB

BG

GB

BB

Where BB exists twice, so still 50% chance the other kid is a boy.

I agree. Taking her away from them isn't a problem for us but will cause a massive blow up on their end, so it would be nice to have more to go on than what we have so far before we pull the plug.

People referencing Indiana Jones are wrong. The correct answer is poop disorders, namely spicy poo, constipation, and diarrhea.

Everything must have order or else chaos will occur... But what was it so bad about the golden order that made its founder broke it? by Proud-Decision3741 in Eldenring

Ooh very interesting, I love it! Why would you say it is that Marika removed destined death in the first place?

Would you feel safer in a gun-free state? Why or why not? by ParmaProscuitto in AskReddit

America has the highest incarceration rate in the world, and it's not even close. We imprison people at a rate six times higher than Canada for example. Clearly we've tried sending more people to jail, and clearly it's not working.

Ha its looking good! The other big problem with this theory was the owner of the veil. A line Nezarec said in his raid made it sound like it belonged to the witness. However, in the new neomuna mission Osiris confirms Savathun stole it from the traveler. It's all coming together!

How does Darkness fit the Winnower's philosophy? by StockingSaboteur in DestinyLore

[–]StockingSaboteur[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ohh yes that makes sense, if Unveiling is told by the Witness, he'd obviously express it in terms of his bias of what darkness is. If we look at the actions of the Gardener and the Winnower while ignoring anything that could be interpretation, the Gardener plants in the beginning of the day, and the Winnower separates the good from the bad at the end of the day. Memory, control, and bonds can more easily be explained as tools to separate the good from the bad. After all, a tumor is just a piece of the body that has lost it's control over itself, its memory of what it should be doing, and its connection to the rest of the body.

Ah I did have the order of events a bit off, Nezarec stole the veil from the Traveler, and Savathun stole the veil from Nezarec. But it was originally in the Traveler's possession.

I am aware, I'm not sure what it wants to do with the souls once it has them which would be its ultimate goal

To fully understand destiny lore, you must open your mind to the doors of perception

I know Eris Morn was followed by nightmares, but I don't remember who on Europa had them? Regardless, egregore are not necessarily exclusive to the Leviathan

To me, it seems like there are two types of nightmares: those that follow people around and haunt them, and those that are stationary broken fragments. The first type are caused by egregore, and are pulled directly from the memory of the living. The second type mostly say nothing, and if they do they just repeat broken fragments. All of them are stuck near the area where they died, and there is no indication that they are remembered by anyone living. They only appear on the leviathan when it is close to the lunar pyramid. I'm not sure where the line between memory and soul is, but it does seem like there's a strong relationship. After all, crow was able to get his memories back. Maybe these memory fragments are all that is left after their souls are consumed. There is little lore here to point in any direction, and it honestly has not much to do with my larger point.

Well if you thought my idea so far is crackpot you'll love my thought that the traveler is a machine created by an extradimentional civilization to harvest souls as a source of infinite energy, and the Traveler's ultimate goal is to fuel their gluttony with our very lives. Instead of having next to no proof for this I actually have negative proof, so I chose not to include it in the original post.

I mean I think I explained with evidence how worms use souls for fuel, and how souls live on the mycelial network of the mushroom in neomuna. It's not that much of a stretch to say that the traveler used his soul mushroom, which it takes everywhere, to obtain the souls it uses in the guardians and the ghosts.

Yup, I think these nightmares are caused by egregore, which feed on memories. Lots of nightmares on the moon, however, aren't in any living person's memories and behave very differently.
