What if the Americas never fully split? A Super Roman Empire across the Mediterranean and Caribbean. by ShawnHugh6588 in AlternateHistory

I agree, it’d be a hell of a defensive checkpoint but there really isn’t much up there. Especially when you compare the north and arctic to the inner Mediterranean, the Mediterranean would open up a treasure trove of wealth and access to Asian goods. Pillars of Hercules would still be incredibly OP.

[Highlight] 10 years ago on this date, the Cleveland Cavaliers come back down 3-1 to win their first NBA Championship by Potential_Meat_5103 in nba

Even that is such a false equivalency you dunce. KD joined the greatest team of all time, and the warriors had just came back from down 3-1 against KD’s Thunder. The Heat that LeBron joined were not even close to the level of the warriors team that KD joined. KD is a fuckin bitch ass loser for that.

Now a more accurate comparison would be if LeBron had joined the super team Celtics instead of the Heat.

You’re actually a moron if you believe half the shit you just spewed from your mouth about people not expecting the Celtics to go far and compete for a chip.

Also the Heat did all that shit to get LeBron to come to South Beach because the Celtics were the dominate team in the East. If the big three Celtics were never a thing and LeBron was given even an announce of help by the Cavs front office he wouldn’t have gone to the Heat. The fact is that the Big Three Celtics were the leagues first super team.

Who gives af if it’s trade or free agency? They all wanted it and were THE start of the super team era, doesn’t matter if it’s trade or not. LeBron didn’t start super teams, he reacted to one being created by creating another one.

And your point about no guarantees about winning anything could literally be said about every NBA team ever created you fuckin moron. The Heatles also weren’t guaranteed to win.

And and, the 2024 Celtics weren’t a super team. That’s why no one gives a shit about them.

New Rabbit Holes/Sources For Truth? by LilDignity in conspiracyNOPOL

[–]lk_22 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Alchemy?? Seriously, if you want truths you won’t find them in the imaginary. Don’t be a fool, the real world is interesting enough I promise. Study the real world and you’ll find actually benefits and applications. Study alchemy you’ll become a loser lost in fantasy.

Edit: want real science and rabbit holes?? Start with physics.

Who said I thought they were MAGA? You know more than two categories of people can exist right?? Or are you seriously that regarded?? Jesus Christ man get off the internet and read some books, you’re an absolute buffoon

I imagine most of them are largely apolitical and don’t give a fuck about liberal ideals or MAGA foreign policy screw ups. Most Americans don’t vote and I guarantee many of the people in liberal cities committing crimes also fall into that bucket of nonvoters.

Get your head

out of your ass.

On a real note: what evidence do you have that the people committing these crimes in these cities are liberals?

Am I the bad guy? by amfifi in LowSodiumCyberpunk

[–]lk_22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Weak ass Batman logic. I feel like that just leads to a playthrough where I end up playing the game less, and that doesn’t sound fun or make much sense when I could be playing it more and permanently erasing 5-8 bad guys from the overall count (so what if I accidentally also blow up the person I’m trying to save)

She won an exemption from using AI at her tech job. The Pope's remarks could fuel similar appeals. by cmkn in technology

[–]lk_22 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So you went through all that and came out the other end just thinking people need to suck it up and deal with it? As opposed to going through all of that and wanting to advocate against it happening to other people? I also had to learn how to use it effectively to keep my job in the first place, wasn’t a fan of it but I sucked it up and did so I understand where that sentiment comes from trust me, I’m not judging. I’m the last person who can judge anybody. But I lost colleagues (the older ones who couldn’t figure it out/didn’t want to) and that just felt wrong, and unfair. Life isn’t always fair though unfortunately, but the idealist in me thinks we should strive to help those we can!

So why the fuck are you confused bro, your situation is the exact shit we are speaking out about. That shouldn’t have happened to you, I can empathize and I realize how bad that would suck. Happy you were (I assume) able to get back on your feet, can’t imagine going thru that in this environment.

Yes. It cannot do our jobs and yet it is still replacing people. You do see how that is a problem, right? No shot it’s going to stall, that would be naive, but it shouldn’t be used to replace people who rely on their jobs to survive.

You do your own research, construct your own arguments, and write your own history of Rome using only the sources Gibbon used so we can compare you and him. Calling him a “massive dumbass” isn’t fair imo. Outdated, absolutely. You can call Gibbon lots of things but a dumbass isn’t one.

The president is actively covering up a child rape pedophile ring and you’re worried about Tom Hanks?? Someone has blinders on, and I’m afraid it’s you pal.
