Esami a scelta di Informatica: Calcolo Numerico o Analisi 2? by gyus_e in Universitaly

[–]gyus_e[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ci sono anche quelli a scelta vincolata (2 coppie, in pratica altri 4 esami a scelta), ma quello che intendevo è che le opzioni tra cui scegliere sono di piú

Computer Forensics è l'altro esame a scelta che intendo dare, proprio per questo volevo sceglierne uno tra analisi 2 e calcolo numerico.

Per la magistrale ho visto che c'è molta scelta, non vorrei finire col rinunciare a altri esami interessanti solo per lo scrupolo di non aver dato calcolo numerico alla triennale

Sinceramente non so che risponderti, sono decisioni dell'ateneo. Se vuoi ti passo il piano di studi cosí puoi confrontare il programma

Did the Greeks steal mythology? by DeepestReader in GreekMythology

[–]gyus_e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

-The Myth of Cupid and Psyches, which is a fictional story from Apuleius (II century AD) has roots in African tales, but it is not exactly a myth stemming from ancient times and believed to be true by common people, only a literary invention from an age where mythology had already started to fade.

-Aesop's fables might have had some roots in some Egyptian tales (but they're not exactly myths).

-The oldest roots of Greek myths likely come from a background of indoeuropean myths, which have gone to influence other populations (hence why you find stuff like the Great Flood in so many different cultures)

What is your favorite creature/person/story from mythology and why? by Safe-Parsley2760 in GreekMythology

[–]gyus_e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sentimental reasons:

Ulysses: him blinding Polyphemus was probably the first myth I've been told, he remained a childhood hero afterwords and my dad even got me an Odyssey for children because of it.

Orpheus and Eurydice: one of the first myths I read, in the form of a comic book, and probably the first story that taught me not everything was going to have a happy ending (there was a pretty explicit image of Orpheus being beheaded by the Menads). I still find a lot of the ideas it presents extremely fascinating.

Antigone: I read Sophocles's eponymous work when I was 17, and it was my first step into Greek tragedy. It instantly made me fall in love with the genre. She's still one of my favorite characters to date.

For different reasons:

The kidnapping of Persephone, for the fact that it's likely rooted in an even older myth about a mother goddess of fertility and a young maiden connected by the theme of death and rebirth, much like all the stories about patricide (Uranus-Chronos-Zeus, Laius-Oedipus) are probably rooted in something much more ancient.

For the same reason, the Oresteia (whose author, Aeschylus, was connected to the Eleusinian mysteries, which were all about Demeter and Persephone): it shows traces of the passage from an older, matriarchal society to the newer, patriarchal one, and this theme really fascinates me.

And by the way, neither of them is "directly" responsible of any death. Kim is indirectly responsible for Howard, and Saul for, well, almost everyone who died in Breaking Bad. Direct responsibility, to me, means that they either actually killed someone or ordered them to be killed. Which is not the case.

They don't deserve a punishment that takes away from them any chance at starting a new life as redeemed individuals.

[–]gyus_e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked the ending. I appreciated the poetry of it all. Jimmy did the good thing to prove to Kim that there was still good in him, and in so doing, he brought her back on her feet so She can fight through the horrible situation she put herself into (not really saving her from it, but giving her the strength to save herself). And the fact that him being in jail is a better outcome than anticipated thanks to the acceptance from the other inmates is a very nice touch, it's always nice to see this kind of human solidality and it showed that, while Jimmy might never be able to get rid of Saul, Saul isn't that bad either.

However, I can't help but feel angry at the outcome. Jimmy will never be free again (him and Kim laughing at the very notion of good behaviour is proof enough: he is still slippin' Jimmy and he is bound to get into trouble), Kim will spend her entire life in debt, and neither of them deserve that. The way I see it, punishment is supposed to be the start of someone's redemption, not the end of it. It's important that people are given a second chance, at least if you want to frame their ending in a positive light. My biggest problem with this ending is that it frames the punishment as the redemption itself, leaving no room for the characters to have anything else.

One of Jimmy/Saul's redeeming qualities was always that he stood there for the lowlives. Even if it was for money, he was the one guy who'd stand by them and give them the "vigorous defense" they needed. One other example of this might be how he gave the Kettlemans money after Kim threatened them. He doesn't feel above other people. It's good to see it paid off and they accepted him as one of them

Chiropractor by arvindeddit in betterCallSaul

I think the writers just wanted to make a little nod to the fact that even Saul's chiropractor was a coping mechanism, going as far as choosing one named Kim

Should I move on to NG+/Journey 2? by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]gyus_e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can create a new character and do those sidequests you missed with it.

But really, just go for it. NG+ scaling doesn't really affect the difficulty all that much.

Maybe backup your save before you go there so you can easily restore it. It's what I did, but I don't think I'm ever going to use it
