On one comments he said that the bible is meant to be read in english because “english is the main language in the end times” and his evidence for that is that there are some puns in the bible that kind of work in english.

soiejo [he/him,any]@hexbear.netto askchapo@hexbear.net•Tell me about your favorite special interest factEnglish1·4 months agoYou remember the quadratic formula that you used in high school to solve 2nd degree polynomial equations? The reason it exists is because 2 is the only number whose factorial is prime (2! = 2).
Most people don’t learn it in high school but there is also a cubic formula for 3rd degree equations. The reason it exists is because if you have an equilateral triangle with labeled vertices and you decide to randomly shuffle the vertices, the resulting triangle will be a rotation or reflection of the original triangle, and no other polygon does that.
A 4th degree formula exists, but it’s too large to be convenient to use. The reason it exists is because the non regular polygon with the smallest sides that has more than one reflection symmetry is the rectangle, which has 4 sides.
Galois theory is full of weird coincidences like that. Also there is no formula for degrees 5 and above and there never will be because there is no coincidences like these with the numbers 5 and above, and I personally think that is really interesting.

soiejo [he/him,any]@hexbear.netto games@hexbear.net•This is literally what happens when you give a 12 year old Chud billions of dollars.English16·7 months agoNever played 1e, but my favorite points for 2e are:
For players: The amount of freedom you have to create and run a character can’t be overstated. The system is feat based, so two players with the same race+class combo can have vastly different characters. There’s actual options to combine races, not just “human+elf and human+orc are the only mixed people in the universe”. The three actions system is so clean and streamlined that once you use it you can never go back to the weirdness of dnd 5e. Also the classes are actually balanced, if you are a fighter player you won’t feel left behind because your mage friend learned to conjure meteor storms at the same time you learned to attack for the third time in a round.
For DMs: The game has real rules and restrictions, you won’t need to magically divine bonuses and penalities if your player decides to do some weird action or create rulings on the spot.

Patenting game mechanics is always a bad thinh for gaming as a whole, and the less courts allow this shit to fly the better

It tries so hard to insert Snyder’s american fetishism in the setting that it quite literraly inverts reality to show the brave, patriot, manly, free,
christian americansSpartans facing the evil, godless, deformed, queer, arabs.Pesonally, I usually can ignore shitty politics when watching a good movie, and sometimes even good slop, but 300 even fails to be a good action movie because it had to add a shitty slow motion effect every time Zack Snyder jerks off to how smart he is

“Yes, I just learned that the WG was keeping the rising sea levels that will destroy everything secret from the world, but instead of reflecting on that info, I’ll calcify my belief in the marines and vow to betray my friend.”
For a society that is so immersed in guns, americans seem disconnected af them. “you don’t aim a gun unless you intend to shoot and you don’t shoot unless you intend to kill” is like basic knowledge that even ppl who don’t use firearms regularly should know, biden’s phrase is beyond embarassing, but any lib who doesn’t have his level of dementia and agreed with with is just as gross as the regular facist bootlicker
