Maybe I just don't remember how exactly Ace looks in game anymore and the fanart has tome unique take the Nerf company took? I just see Ace of Spades more or less how I remember so that might be why I'm confused

Definitely the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy

How can they claim the design is theirs when they based the drawing on design by Bungie?

Like Christianity did you mean?

That said, I don't disagree with the sentiment - the respect should come both ways and the imigrants should respect the native culture, but that also doesn't mean they havento give up their own.

Local culture always changes in time. Take Europe, it's culture steeped and deeply influenced by Christianity in many countries. And yet Christianity is a religion with Middle East origins. People just don't look at the bigger picture - or don't want to. The change in the past was not happening to them, but it is now and that's what matters.

Over here we have people akin to that in the ministry of environment and theu get to chanhe laws and stuff to suit them.

No care for preventing the encounters, they like it as it gives them reason to kill them. Couple of months back there was a male bear who got into town, so they went to hunt it down and in the end they said the bear was shot down but it was a female... as long as there is a dead bear, they don't care

Some people just have a hard on for hunting them. They would set up some kind of bait to get them close enough and bam - hunting trophy is theirs.

I'm sure fines are under "other expenses" in their financials...

Should be reference to Spartacus' rebelion? When defeated, the rebeling slaves were asked to point out Spartacus to which everyome of them said "I'm Spartacus".

Or so the story goes.

Would love to see it though

I mean... obviously

Right?! Looking cool and being effective are two different things. I know what they went for but really poorly worded that one.

There was this legendary comment on reddit to a thread asking people what would their plan be if they were immortal and got milion dollars, but there was a superintelligent immortal snail also with milion dollars who would want to kill them. I was trying to find it but as far as I can tell OP removed it. Does anyone here have it and could post it here by any chance?

So with open source software more on my mind lately I was wondering - while I get the benefits of transparency and such, how safe is it? If the source code is available to all, isn't it easier to breach for people (like the recent cookies hack)? If I'd have an open source password manager, would it be easier for people to get my passwords somehow than if I use something not open source? Do I just not understand how software works in general?

And what are other benefits that may be not so obvious to someone not so knowledgable about this?

Edit: thank you all for really insightful answers! Among other things I also learned just how much I don't know :)
