That’s what I don’t understand about many U.S. lefts. I do understand that the Democrats ain’t perfect and that they have some weird positions. But your elective system (which is kind of screwed from the start anyway) only has two possible outcomes, dems or reps. And the two of them are not equally bad, so why take away votes from the by far not that bad option, strengthening the really bad option?

However, very early in the movie he says “If you make yourself more than just a man, if you devote yourself to an ideal, you become something else entirely” so it seems obvious in hindsight that this applies to Ra’s as well as if applies to Batman.

But that doesn’t mean Henri Ducard became a Ra’s Al Ghul or Ra’s Al Ghul became the League of Shadows. It’s like a religious thing, like christians consider themselves reborn after baptism.

Hell, I always thought Ken Watanabe was Ra’s Al Ghul and the title passed on to Liam Neeson after the former died.

I can see where you’re coming from, I’d expect some quote like “I am Ra’s Al Ghul now” or something.

Again, I can see your interpretation, but I think Ra’s Al Ghul simply being a name is far less a stretch and requires fewer assumptions.

1. He literally says 'we have been around for 1000 years and since Nolanverse is devoid of any fantastical elements, passing the torch is the only possible explanation.

I always thought he meant the League of Shadows, not a single position.

2. Her name is Talia Al Ghul from Doylist perspective but not from Watsonian.

She calls Ra’s Al Ghul her father. It may be an interpretation that Al Ghul is a name, but so is the title interpretation. And imho the name is far less of a stretch.

only real difference is the few times a white character is casted black the movie ends up being bad anyways.

Shawshank Redemption. In the source novel, Morgan Freeman’ character was a white irish guy. The reasons nobody complained were probably that a. there was no Xitter when the movie hit theaters and b. nobody knows it’s an adaptation anyway.

No, I don’t thinking would work since his daughter’s called Thalia Al Ghul, indicating Al Ghul is a family name.

Also,we don’t need to make up apologies for whitewashing.

Click yourself randomly through lexicanum and pick a book based on which stories you find the most intriguing. Or start with the Horus Heresy, they’re not bad books and it’s chronologically in order

I’m not surprised. I get the idea trying to display regions that don’t exist anymore, but it’s an utterly foolish attempt to try and display regions from different time periods and the same map.

First: what time frame is the reference here? We know about different european cultures dating back a couple of thousand years and cultures and borders were ever shifting. Compare the Holy Roman Empire with germanic tribes during the (actual) Roman Empire, or the Frankish realms with celtic tribes before the Roman conquest. OP on reedit says they defined “regions” as locations with borders that were in place for centuries (which has rarely happened throughout the history of Europe) and developed regional cultural identities (which they completely missed).

Second, regarding Germany (especially northern Germany), it’s inaccurate.
For example, what they marked as Oldenburg seems fairly accurate at first glance, but the actual Grand Dutch of Oldenburg existed only from 1815 till 1918 and also included the Dutch of Lübeck at the Baltic Sea and the Dutchy of Birkenfeld in southern Rhineland-Palatinate. You could argue it existed through the Weimar Republic and the Third Rich (adding 27 years to its existence, but 130 years is still not “centuries”). When it became an administrative district in the Federal Republic of Germany 65 years ago, it lost its exclaves Lübeck and Birkenfeld. 65 years is still not centuries.
The region called “Elbe” is even less accurate. It shows only a part of the Elbe-Weser-Triangle, an area that at times was two territories, Bremen and Verden, later the territory Bremen-Verden and was times ruled by the Holy Roman Emperor, Sweden, napoleonic France and the German Reich. But again, what is called “Elbe” here is only a part of said territory and contains Hamburg (which was never part of Bremen-Verden). Also, in more ancient times, it was part of the saxon tribal area, like Holstein, too.
East- and Westphalia are much bigger here than the actual historical regions. Eastphalia was split up in 1180, while Eastwestphalia (yep, this is a thing) and Westphalia still exist today. And all these borders have very little to do with cultural identities. Those close to the coastlines (and by close I mean like almost directly on the dikes) have more in common with each other than with those more inland. People who live by the North Sea in Holstein have more in common with people living in “Elbe” (I hate this name for a region. The Elbe is a river that traverses from Czechia through Bohemia, Saxony, etc all the way into the North Sea) or the coastal areas of Oldenburg than the letters have in common with people in the city of Oldenburg.

Historic regions and cultures are always time specific. If you want to make such maps, decide if you want to make it political or culturalor whatever, and pick a specific time frame you want to depict. Everything else leads to inaccuracies

Fuck me is this some cringe shit.

think lineage is probably the one, although that one doesn’t seem completely de-googled? I see some people talking about a version that is but something about signature spoofing and thats a security problem…

I’m not sure tbh, I’m not using Lineage myself. I tried it on a VM once and there was Google stuff all over it, so I asked online and Lineage users told me it was a weird VM image and their phones were degoogled.

I don’t want to do graphene because it just seems hypocritical to buy a google phone when I’m trying to stop giving google money and my data.

Uff, I almost already thought I were the only one thinking this way xD It’s my issue with Graphene, too, and I wish FP would make a phone in collaboration with Graphene so I could have both lol

I think my only hang up there is the lack of a wireless charger. I can get past that but I have a number of wireless chargers in my house and cars that I do enjoy. Weird that it doesn’t have it

I can see wireless charging can be a nice commodity, but FP gives a reason, it’s not weird and it’s the same reason I personally stay away from wireless charging phones in general: it’s an utter waste of energy. Wireless charging needs around 50% more power compared to regular USB-C-charging and for a company that’s focused on reducing waste and being sustainable where possible, I guess it’s an easy way.

LineageOS supports the most devices, GrapheneOS is the absolute best if you’re looking for privacy and security and have a Pixel Phone. You can buy Fairphones and Teracube with /e/OS preinstalled if you’re insecure about flashing your phone yourself.

That’s true, unfortunately.

Btw, if you’re into FP for sustainability reasons, maybe you want to look at Teracube

Yes, but I use it as a springboard to shoot against Google in general.

Yeah, if it was supported on other devices than a Google Phone, I’d probably love it (yes I know, it’s due to hardware that apparently no other manufacturer uses, but still it annoys me. A Fairphone with Graphene is my wet dream).

But then you’d still have a googled phone.

There are Google-free Android ROMs

What a coincidence. I saw Serious Sam on sale earlier today.

Achso. Ja, das stimmt. Ich hatte das englische “funny numbers” im Kopf

Was meinst du mit traurig und nett?

Und 42 im Kontext einer deutschen Community könnte auch für Deutsche Bahn stehen ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
