Even if “immortality” is the sucky kind, invulnerability kind of implies that you’re immune to the aging process.

Depending on which deity we’re talking, “divine powers” is a no-brainer. Besides that: Immortality, invincibility, siphon powers. Use the time I have (i.e. all of it) to learn unarmed combat and weapon master, and become insanely rich and very intelligent, then invent implants and a powersuit (why would anyone pick those if they’re a freebie with immortality), then wait around for others who have picked different powers and siphon off their powers. Since I’m invincible, I can also swallow some plutonium and become radioactive.
So, in conclusion, I would like to be a sci-fi lich.

So… in Finland “democracy” and “violence” are the same thing? xD
- It’s a big difference whether you live in an unjust system and individual terrorism is the only recourse you feel you have left, or whether you are the leader of a massive bureaucratic state that has other options.
- There are numerous reasons to be mad at Stalin, and offing capitalists is not one of the top ones.
- Betraying everything Lenin and Marx stood for by bolstering the bureaucracy instead of abolishing it (admittedly partly also the fault of the German social democrats).
- Abandoning the idea of world revolution in favor of his brain dead socialism in one (technologically and culturally backward) state that didn’t have the material conditions for socialism in any way, shape, or form.
- Collaborating with the Nazis at the beginning of WW2.
- Smothering nascent revolutions like the Chinese one, sending many of them on a one-way track back to capitalism, and constructing undemocratic bureaucracies like itself.
- Killing soviet democracy.
- Rolling back on the social accomplishments of the October Revolution (e.g. abortion).
This is by no means an exhaustive list.
Boah, leiwand. Krosse-Krabbe-Pizza?
There are several steps between learning German and comprehending whatever the fuck we’re doing over there.
Hi. Was essen wir heute am Abend?
Wait, why does one of the animals look like the cameraman?
Easy. The ones with vowels are C library functions.
“Average” can be an arithmetic mean, a median, a geometric mean, or even a mode.
That’s the point. To make the low-population area more intense. Because relative to the population density, there were 100 times as many sightings. Or what am I missing.
There are a number of normalization algorithms. Easiest would be to just divide by the area’s population count. That gives you the relative number of bigfoot sightings or fursuits per capita, removing any skews introduced by varyin population size.
Say you have two areas:
Area 1: 100000 people, 1000 fursuits, 500 bigfoot sightings Area 2: 1000 people, 10 fursuits, 5 bigfoot sightings
Without knowing the population size, it looks like more fursuits means more bigfoot sightings. But if we divide by the population size, we get 0.01 fursuits and 0.005 bigfoot sightings per person in both areas.
Hope that helps. ^^
