@Ellastime@josemorgado Watch it again, he's not running in that direction until after the ball was hit, was he moving in that direction, yes but hadn't committed, he still was covering the other side.
@DiegoSolano180@gmwpluvr I disagree, Charybdis works best when you aren't shown anything but the whirlpool and a gaping black hole and your brain does the rest.
And correct me if I'm mistaken but the Odyssey never describes its appearance anyway.
@uglyman46072215@summoningsalt I figured, that's the ideal way to go if i had to choose too. The thing is the problem doesn't say how you die, so it could be anything such as "getting run over by train", so pressing the blue button is equivalent to stepping onto train tracks.
@Itsukushimi777@summoningsalt I read it again and i still don't see it, whats the the perilous situation that requires avoidance? The peril begins once you press the blue button, if you choose to do anything nothing happens, or am I wrong?
@deathbian@summoningsalt@cpm987 What I don't agree with is the notion that both choices are different just because they seem different. If you are aware the consequences of both choices are the same, then they are the same choices in my opinion.
@deathbian@summoningsalt@cpm987 I don't think I'm smart at all. I was never disagreeing with the statement that they feel different to people. Like i said, it's only an illusion. Inaction may not feel like a choice but it is, because there are consequences by still choosing to do nothing.
@Itsukushimi777@summoningsalt If less than 50% of people tie themselves to the tracks, only people who didn't tie themselves, survive.
How's it any different?
@TheChronoCoffee@iamborggggg@summoningsalt@tchukkelz@bungerfan_27 No one was forcing you to do anything in the original.
I don't know what you're talking about. Where are you getting the whole being "locked in a room" thing? That wasn't in the original post, all it said is that everyone must make a choice, which is the case here as well.
@Th3birdman15@v0xsul@waitbutwhy I'm not even sure what to respond to this with a straight face, so I'm just gonna say "yes, I'm surviving. Have you seen avengers endgame, they made it out just fine"
@Itsukushimi777@summoningsalt I fail to see how this is a more accurate analogy, in the original thought experiment no one started already in a perilous situation that required action to avoid it.
