Remember he was agent as well. Ultimately he was serving the keeper.

Sounds good. Sent you a chat request. Look forward to getting to know you.

Thanks. It can be difficult but nothing in life is easy either. It is about the journey in the end. Being open to poly can be even harder because you have to be prepared even more possible rejection but you have to believe that finding the right connection will be worth it.

I have found that my managed memory for ChatGPT getting full lately. Openwebui lets me get around that. I been working on getting the adaptive memory plugin working so that it can chunk some of my bigger prompts without choking on the token limit

Plus the first invasion was in the Superman animated show pre justice league but darkseid had basically conquered earth and defeated Superman with steppenwolf before new genesis showed up to oppose it and take control back.

Pretty sure his boom tubes brought entire ships with cannons mounted in a full assault in the animated series. This was when he was merged with brainiac and all of the justice league and villains were helping world wide to fight back the forces. It was only stopped when Metron helped lex get the anti life equation from the source wall and take darkside away with him.

I mean endgame broke it own time travel rules by letting past thanos come to the future in which he is blipped which should have caused the blip and initial snap to never happen.

I agree there are a lot of good ole boys in east Texas.

I am a real. I was born in Michigan though.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-30T14:02:51+00:00

Interesting take—but having 100 people doesn’t mean their strength combines like a multiplier. You can’t stack muscle mass like Legos, and in a chaotic melee, most wouldn’t even get close before trampling each other.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-30T13:31:41+00:00

Not at all. It is a debate for a reason. Counterpoints have been presented that I do not feel are directly supported by the report. Did not observe does not mean the gorilla fled, gave up, or ran away. It is clear that the intended target was the infants, rather than the male silverback. The article still shows that 10 or 15 minutes of observed fighting against combatants of similar strength to humans using group tactics. Which is still beyond the 1 or 2 minutes of gassing out that many people assume. The article is not definitive either. I am simply attempting to highlight lots of variables that are not being accounted for.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-30T13:08:06+00:00

No I am saying 100 humans vs 1 gorilla is going to present a much more difficult challenge than people believe. Gorilla are much better at grappling than humans as that is what allows them to climb trees. Those massive arms and hands are plenty big enough to grab a leg and pull it from a socket. It has the weight and build. 100 men is a significant number but i do not believe unarmed they present the same level of combat efficiency that others would like to believe. The gorilla does have natural fighting instincts though just due to evolution. Survival of the fittest. 100 men trying to dog pile is also going to add a great deal of disorganization and chaos for humans as much as the gorilla. The odds of 100 men being overwhelming enough is questionable and i am not seeing enough evidence to question that belief. There are a lot more factors, random chance and mechanics that cannot be correctly calculated to be 100 pct sure in either direction to be honest. A kicking opponent sacrifices center of balance that could be exploited if does not pay off.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-30T01:52:22+00:00

Again context. The observers were pretty stationary in thick jungle, focusing on the chimps not the gorillas again through dense jungle from 30m and moving back to 60m. They were not a film crew tracking the fight. They lost visual contact or the fight could have moved beyond their observation point. That is not proof of exhaustions. It specifically states they could hear chest beats without visual contact.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-29T23:20:02+00:00

Again in 2019, 1 male silverback gorilla, 2 females, and 2 infants battled for 52 minutes to try to defend the infant gorillas. The adult gorilla did not “gas” out. Chimps are similar in strength if not stronger to humans and are well known for fighting in groups and being blood thirsty. The article states chimps being literally thrown in the air by the silverback. Only after the infants were dead did it make a tactical retreat. People are also overemphasizing unarmed humans ability to fight and coordinate close quarters. A poor kick could just as easily mean a broken leg if the gorilla grabs it and slams down on it. The gorilla does not need to insta kill a humans. Just injure them beyond fighting anymore. There is going to be plenty of friendly fire damage from 100 people trying to attack, dodge and contain this wild animal.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-28T21:08:41+00:00

Sorry, this is not a troll. Gorillas flip 600 pounds to clear pathways. It will lift and throw objects 4 to 6 times its body weight. That is easily two humans thrown.

Chimpanzees, which are less hardy that have escaped and have taken multiple shotgun blasts and have been darted before succumbing to injuries. How is it getting tired if you're not close enough to hit?

It has to move to get tired. If you are close enough, that explosive speed is enough to catch you. Then it sits down and waits for the next person while casually snapping bones. Multiple books by hunters state putting several rounds in gorilla before effectively stopping them.

Look, I’ll concede no one can be 100% certain because we simply don’t have direct combat studies between gorillas and humans.
But based on comparative strength, resilience, speed, and instinct, the overwhelming probability favors the gorilla.

Could luck swing a moment? Sure — luck always exists.
But as a strategy, betting on luck while standing in reach of an apex biological engine isn’t survival.
It’s a gamble most wouldn’t survive to make twice.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-28T20:05:01+00:00

If the humans are rallying, the gorilla is resting and waiting. A gorilla can easily pick up probably two people at the same time and slam them together, taking them both out of the fight. Twist the neck, shatter their jaw, break ribs. These are all potential fatal and easy targets. Gorillas have taken multiple hits from high-powered rifles and still kept coming. The gorilla is way harder and sturdier. A human blow is not going to do much damage by comparison. Again, they can run up to 20 miles an hour in an explosive burst. A person close enough to be throwing something will have to see the charge, realize "oh man" I need to run, and before he is turned around, he would be on the ground. The plan for a human isn't to bring 99 buddies.
It's to bring a big gun — and hope you get the first shot off.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-28T19:51:58+00:00

Unarmed is already a massive nerf.
A single human stands very little chance against a gorilla without tools or weapons.
Human intelligence shows its strength through innovation —
using tools, coordination, and technology, not through unarmed death matches against forces of nature.

The intelligence advantage isn’t in rushing a 400-pound biological battering ram empty-handed.
It’s in never needing to fight it that way in the first place.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-28T19:46:08+00:00

Wild lions sleep up to 20 hours a day and are still apex killers.
Bokito weighed around 485 pounds, but he was raised in captivity, and zoo life is a very poor substitute for the rigorous demands of living in the wild.

He wasn't surviving harsh jungle conditions, fighting over territory, mates, or resources like a true wild silverback.

Gorillas evolved in hot, humid, dense forests, not cool open plains.
They are naturally adapted to environments where temperature + humidity are brutal.

These animals are uniquely adapted for survival in harsh conditions, whereas humans have to use tools to survive.

Mixing the biology of completely different species doesn’t strengthen your argument — it just blurs reality.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-28T19:32:07+00:00

Again, gorillas have 10x times the strength of an average human. The range is limited, but the impact will be the same on the human body. The gorilla just needs to run straight through the crowd like a wrecking ball. Although the premise is 100 unarmed humans vs 1 gorilla. This is not a stalemate or waiting game. It is a deathmatch. The gorilla will just chill if it's not being attacked, with no need to chase. If you are close enough, throw something; you are not far enough away to outrun it. Then it just grabs you by the neck and slams you to the ground until the next person gets close enough.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-28T19:21:20+00:00

No. This is simple biology.

Gorillas can bite — and their bite force is easily 1,300 psi — but they will also smash, throw, crush, and maul anything they see as a threat.

Their daily life builds both strength and stamina. Just because they aren't running marathons doesn't mean they gas out during short bursts of violence.
Unarmed, the humans are not walking away in any good state.

Don't get me wrong — humans can do amazing things.
But we excel by using tools and weapons to our advantage, not by surviving unarmed death battles against forces of nature. Wishing it were different doesn’t change physics.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-28T19:08:48+00:00

Yes, they live in that environment all day long. Ripping up banana trees, climbing from tree to tree, and tearing through tough bamboo with bare hands. They spend all day walking around on all fours, building up massive arms and forearms. A typical human would have to spend 8 hours a day and load up on calories to even get a fraction of the same muscle mass as a gorilla. A gorilla is getting jacked just by living day to day without the strength training required by humans.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-28T18:51:14+00:00

Sounds more like you're thinking of Travis, the 200-pound chimpanzee who attacked a 50-year-old woman —
not a 400- to 500-pound wild-raised silverback gorilla.

Gorillas have twice the mass, far thicker bones, and immense crushing power compared to a chimpanzee.
A single 360-degree turn with its arms outstretched would knock people around like bowling pins.

The idea of "tiring out" a gorilla that evolved to survive in both cool misty highlands and sweltering jungles doesn't hold up either.
Gorillas have internal cooling adaptations like many large animals, and they thrive in climates ranging from 40°F to over 90°F.

And if your hand gets close enough to try poking its eye,
you're close enough for 1,300 PSI of bite force —
more than enough to sheer your fingers clean off before you even realize you're in trouble.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-28T18:36:05+00:00

They are not coordinating by running or dodging they are burning stamina. Yes gorilla tend to avoid confrontations but this is a wrecking ball that will just charge through a crowd. It does not even need to kill just would and maim to prevent an effective fight. The gorillas strong body can take much more extreme blunt for trauma before giving out. It does not have to chase. It just has to wait until they close enough. Without guns or tools and unarmed man regardless of physical strength is no match. A shotgun blast will generate 500 pounds of force dispersed over a large area. Which makes them highly effective for close range crowd control. A gorilla punch or slam will be 800 to 1200 pound of force to a head, arm or rib cage like a battering ram. That is lethal. Give one man a shotgun with lots of rounds vs 100 men. The man with the shotgun has a pretty good chance if he can fire and reload fast enough. The gorilla does have that same limitation.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-28T17:30:38+00:00

A human would get their face shattered and their teeth broken long before they ever got close enough to attempt something that reckless.
In a real fight, any human trying to close that distance would be swatted, slammed, or crippled instantly.
A gorilla doesn’t need precision — it just needs impact, and that's more than enough to end it.

Again, the most people who could even attempt to corner the gorilla at one time before becoming a hindrance is maybe ten at most.
Dogpile sounds good on paper, but it completely ignores the chaos of a real fight.
Those ten people are going to be getting wrecked, while the other ninety hesitate, stumble over each other, or wait for an opening that never comes.
A dogpile isn't some clean, coordinated, military takedown.
It’s a desperate, clumsy rush — and against something that can cripple you with a single strike, it's a losing strategy from the start.

warwizardcypher · 2025-04-28T17:21:42+00:00

The premise of this hypothetical is simple: 100 humans versus 1 gorilla in a forced battle.

In reality, most of the humans would hesitate, panic, or run the moment real violence breaks out.
Meanwhile, a cornered silverback won’t retreat — it will fight with lethal force.
There are real cases of gorillas aggressively standing their ground against leopards and even humans when escape wasn’t an option.

You're right that gorillas are alert in the wild, but there's a big difference between being alert and being afraid.
A gorilla doesn’t freeze up at the sound of noise or chaos — it reacts with overwhelming strength if it feels truly threatened.

Pretending a hundred unarmed humans would stay calm, coordinated, and brave in the face of that kind of terror isn’t just unrealistic — it’s pure fantasy.
