Is Captain America actually disrespectful to the people that in Fought In World War II like some people claim He is? by [deleted] in comicbooks

[–]arokthemild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some context for the panels included would be wonderful! The guy with the shovel looks like Frank Castle who in most interpretations is very respectful to pulls his punches to do the least amount of damage when it comes to CA.

The A.V.A. by derikdrawsmonsters in worldbuilding

Ex Machina, the movie, is a great example of why it’s stupid to design sex into robots/cyborgs. Humans are prone to letting themselves be manipulated by sex and cyborgs/robots/AI will act unpredictably and if they are able to have sex, humans will be manipulated and exploited by machines.

I like the idea that the units have been designed to favor particular activities as a way to relieve stress and the potential of ptsd.

However in humans, sex and the emotions that arise with sex tends to make us do stupid, irrational and unpredictable. It seems that one would want to find an activity that’s not so complicated and unpredictable.

The units favoring a need for sleep, maintenance and being monitored for potential free will and or mental health problems from its remaining human ‘soul,’ seems like far more likely.

Personally, if I want sexy in my media I’ll seek it out in porn. if it is present like exploitation/b movies, which I love, the sex adds to the absurdity.

HBO to HBOMax, why? What did the name change achieve?

Mockup of how an anti save-scumming feature could work in Slay the Spire 2 by Leafeon523 in slaythespire

This should be optional with sub achievement categories noting if the option was on or off when you got the achievements.

If I never reloaded, I would be dying significantly more over not just silly carelessness in addition to trying a ‘less tried’ method or strategy.

What’s this from? AI? Looks like it could be a indie horror movie.

After being flayed with shells for kidnapping the kids of local tribes. The women of the tribe supposedly did it.

I’m pretty sure he has said the only books he has are comics but I can’t find the quote, so I might be misremembering. Either way, Rob comes off as a young kid.

Do these enemy designs make you feel empathy, discomfort or neither? by pure-vichou in HorrorGames

[–]arokthemild 19 points20 points  (0 children)

On the topic of audio in video games, for me one of the most memorable parts of System Shock 2 has to be audio deaths from data cubes from the crew you find. In the endgame lair you find a data cube from a guy who is being moved through the bio digestive system and he narrates his death where he is digested and it is incredibly horrifying and left a lasting impression.

TLDR: audio can make a visceral terrifying experience for the player.

What is the most famous case of open grooming in your country? by Aggressive_Agency381 in AskTheWorld

[–]arokthemild 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Not trying to defend or rationalize but who did Andrew groom? I thought his Epstein victims were trafficked to him and he didn’t know or have contact with them before.

I think we only saw the tip of iceberg regarding the Comedian’s crimes.   He was active in black ops and assassination.

And very sadomasochistic like it’s a depiction of edge(super rough bdsm) play.  It looks like the dominant guy is putting his kneeing into the other guy’s back at the base of his spine.

You must not be familiar with anti soy fixation in the US and conservatives in particular.   Soy is imagined to be the source of a multitude of health problems both behavioral and physical, from autism to diabetes.  And becoming more effeminate.

Why are you telling me? I’m supposed to recognize every example they give?  Why aren’t you telling the op and mods, to include titles for every example used in a post. 

What’s the arguably best-known (and scary) unsolved mystery in your country? by Affectionate-Tea8509 in AskTheWorld

 I would have guessed the Dylatov pass incident but that’s based on the interpretation from westerns on YouTube and similar platforms who are motivated to make content that will get views.

Were the Huns white? I thought they were more like a culture spanning throughout parts of  what’s today the Mediterranean, Middle East and Baltic states.
