- Comment on Train from Warsaw to Chelm costs £9. In UK this 250 km journey would probably cost at least 10 times more. 1 week ago:
Your reading comprehension is the problem here, nobody but yourself is fucking with you, so I propose you calm down a bit before continuing to make an ass out of yourself.
Combat Wombat meant comparing between countries the train prices of a 250 km ride inside those countries and not comparing the prices of a 250 km ride over country borders.
And even in the beginning the question wasn’t comparing different modes of transportation but directly train prices.
- Comment on 'Bioshock Review' - MandaloreGaming 2 weeks ago:
Yep, that is why the plot of Infinite was to me more a bunch of not fully thought through but cool sounding concepts instead of a proper and fully consistent story and world. I like the game for its art style, game play and atmosphere, but it is 100 % not making sense.
And now that you spell it out to me, I never realized before how directly contradicting that ending was to the whole concept of Bioshock 1.
Because to me it lost the point at the moment where they said:
spoiler
There are infinite Raptures. Because then we only saved them in that one single world and there are unnumbered other worlds were saving them didnt happen. So why even care at that point or feel great for saving 1 out of an infinity?
- Comment on 'Bioshock Review' - MandaloreGaming 2 weeks ago:
Thanks for explaining it to me in more detail.
While I understand what you mean and agree that Infinite and its DLCs throws everything before out the window, I would argue that Fontaine was just the first bullet that killed Rapture but there were many more bullets waiting in the magazine, so to say. The oppression and inherent wrongness of Rapture, including the addictive behaviour of Adam combined with the inherent and even desired power structures would have driven it down the drain either way. Probably later than the New Years Eve party, but it was in my mind always on a path of self destruction.
And yeah, BioShock 2 was done without the involvement of Ken Levine, so he sadly didn’t really saw it as part of “his baby”. I liked BioShock 2 and Infinite, but Infinite felt more like an alternate canon spin off than part of the main series. For me they are simply similar but different beings, not of the same continuity.

Can you explain it to me inside a spoiler? I played all from BioShock till BioShock Infinite & its DLCs years ago and can’t remember how it directly justifies Ryan?
- Comment on Can't believe its been 2 weeks 3 weeks ago:
No, not really.
Because if you do think about it, you would realize that a wide variety of species shows a wide variety of different behaviours. Which in turn means that all these opposing ways of behaviour are indeed natural, but not necessary natural for humans, as they are contradictory to each other. Or if you want to follow your proposed line of thought to the logical end, I await your proof of human males attaching to the much bigger female and atrophying to a simple ball of sacks for insemination as angler fishes are proven to do.

Capitalism is the private ownership of the means of production.
There are special subdivisions with certain extra features, but the bare bones definition is just that.
- Comment on Thanks for coming to my TED talk 5 weeks ago:
I agree in general but slight nitpick:
When somebody declares intent to harm you, proportional violence becomes justified as self defence.
If you say you want to hit me on my pinky finger, I’m not justified in killing you. If you declare to kill or eradicate me, as the extreme right does to certain marginalised groups, a lot of different levels of violence are justified, including killing for the really severe cases.

Wow, I completely missed that this movie exists and thought you were fucking with us. But no, they seriously did a soldier isekai into Monster Hunter world. How much coke was involved in making such a travesty?

So what you’re telling me is that the good, cheap food that tourists crave are in the red labeled areas? Understood!

It slows the absorption inside the stomach down a tiny amount. So you don’t get drunk as fast. But that is not really important if we are talking about dilution via some additional ice cubes.

- Comment on I didn't realize masala, was spicy 1 month ago:
Its the kind of bird on the label. I think it shows you the level of spiciness, with the cock being the most spicy one. But searching for those terms might show some masochist applying it to his cock, so yeah, just search for sriracha sauce and you will find it.
- Comment on Why are Pokemon Showdown Moderators SO against the discussion of "Eating Pokemon"? 1 month ago:
You directly said, and I quote
Eating them shouldn’t be so taboo when considering that little tidbit.
Sorry that I take your words as what they mean literally instead of trying to make them mean what I think they should mean.
- Comment on Why are Pokemon Showdown Moderators SO against the discussion of "Eating Pokemon"? 1 month ago:
“Talk about” are two very important words that were missing from your original comment. Like the difference a comma makes between “Let’s eat grandpa” and “Let’s eat, Grandpa”.
- Comment on Why are Pokemon Showdown Moderators SO against the discussion of "Eating Pokemon"? 1 month ago:
No I’m talking about you saying that it should be not taboo to eat what you fuck.
Normal people very much differentiate between what they eat and what they fuck.

- Comment on When and why did online surveys remove the back button?! 1 month ago:
Because they are silly and sometimes/often program it in such a way, that using the back button resets everything and brings you back to the starting page.
- Comment on When and why did online surveys remove the back button?! 1 month ago:
Well, this second one was from GOG, where they asked my opinion of them. So I took that chance to tell them again that I do not appreciate them sharing Nazi dog whistles.
- Comment on When and why did online surveys remove the back button?! 1 month ago:
Yeah, would explain why one question was about selecting FALSE statements. Seems they finally realized some people don’t care about the answers.
But still, auto forwarding AND removing the back button? I’m not so sure that improves the results overall, but what do I know.

That’s not true at all. The aegian sea is something like 215,000 km2 (83,000 sq mi for you football field lovers out there).
And don’t underestimate “the technology of the time”.
We nowadays have evidence of wide trade networks all over Europe and northern Africa during the bronze age. In Spain there is evidence of tin being used that was mined in northern Europe. People very much used water ways for trade and exchange, which is one of the reason why most old big cities are next to water ways.
- Comment on Do pedophile/ephebophile s have a tendency to seek out friendships or romantic relationships with young adults as well as with minors? 1 month ago:
Do you think it’s a good idea to combine those people in one location to concentrate resources on how to help them or do you think its a bad idea due to them exchanging information on how to be more effective?
- Comment on Is a black hole spherical? How come it looks different each way you view it like on it's side or up and down? 1 month ago:
True, thanks for the addition! I forgot to mention that.
- Comment on Is a black hole spherical? How come it looks different each way you view it like on it's side or up and down? 1 month ago:
As far as I understood it, yes, a black hole, or rather the event horizon around it, is perfectly round. The problem you describe is that you can’t see the black hole, as that is the whole point of why they are called black. What you can see though, is the light behind the home that gets blocked.
That gets an additional problem, since the gravity of the hole bends space time around it and you cana indeed see the part that is behind it, albeit distorted around the event horizon. What you describe as changing view from up or down is indeed just the different view behind the hole, not the hole itself.
- Comment on How do other countries view American super hero movie's always putting the threat in new york or whatever? Instead of their own country and have their own superheroes? 1 month ago:
Honestly, it helps with the suspension of disbelief. Some local author tried to tell urban fantasy stories in my home town… Its just too silly for me to read about a werewolf/vampire/alien fighting on the street I cross to get to the supermarket.
And of course it is absolutely masturbatoric, same as Japan and aliens invading Tokyo.
- Comment on "Censorship" ☠️ 1 month ago:
I agree with you, as long as no real child is involved, nobody got hurt, so I don’t care. And I also think having a fictional pressure release is preferable to a real one.
But that is not really the topic here. This is about the term lolicon and how a lot of pedophiles hide behind that term. In my opinion the translation in the picture is correct. That has nothing to do with censorship, as the tweet tries to portray it as.
