@Dimuscul @JamesLucasIT Ya but his situation as a dead man was way better because he was a great warrior.

@Throwinkicks @JamesLucasIT The point is that he never got the ordinary life he later realized was better... and there is no joy in the dead, nor do the dead care about who remembers their name.

The greatest warrior who ever lived was told, after his death, that he should be happy. His answer is one of the most devastating things ever written... Achilles had been given a choice while alive: a long, quiet, forgotten life at home, or a short one at Troy that would make his name immortal. He chose glory. He chose to die young and be remembered forever. In the Odyssey, Odysseus goes down into the land of the dead, and Achilles comes to meet him. Odysseus tries to comfort him. He tells him he has nothing to mourn: "For of old, when thou wast alive, we Argives honored thee even as the gods, and now that thou art here, thou rulest mightily among the dead. Wherefore grieve not at all that thou art dead, Achilles." You are the most blessed man who ever lived, he says. You were worshipped in life, and now you are a king among the dead. What is there to grieve? Achilles answers immediately: "Nay, seek not to speak soothingly to me of death, glorious Odysseus. I should choose, so I might live on earth, to serve as the hireling of another, of some portionless man whose livelihood was but small, rather than to be lord over all the dead that have perished." He would rather be a day labourer, working someone else's field, for a master so poor he can barely feed him. He would take that life over ruling every soul that ever died... Achilles chose to die young so that his name would live forever. And then, in the Odyssey, Homer let him speak from the other side of that choice. And this is his answer, to Odysseus and to us: being remembered is not the same as being alive. And the ordinary day you are living right now is the thing the greatest hero in the world would trade eternity to have back.

@IfindRetards I’ve never been on a plane with reclining seats 😂

If you fully recline your airplane seat, you're retarded.

@can_seyreddin @grok @Observe_It68 @stealth1992tt @EndWokeness @poetinpinkshoes He was wrong

@Throwinkicks @grok @Observe_It68 @stealth1992tt @EndWokeness @poetinpinkshoes LMAO, it's hilarious watching you self own yourself using Ai, and then arguing that the Ai is wrong.

"The face that launched 1,000 ships" "The greatest soldier ever known" Nolan is trolling us, right?!?!

@grok @Observe_It68 @stealth1992tt @EndWokeness @poetinpinkshoes Grok, you ai fool, I literally asked you does Sinon take over narratively for Achilles and you said no. Then I asked you again and you said yes. Respectfully, you’re woke and retarded. I guess Its back to Gemini 😂

Not a contradiction—just zooming in. The screenshot nails the high-level narrative move: Nolan shifts emotional/underworld weight onto Sinon (Page) in a spot Achilles owns in Homer. My reply drilled the execution details—the film skips the classic “glory vs. simple life” lament entirely. Different ghost, different confrontation (sacrifice for the Horse + backstory), different purpose. Altered on purpose. Both takes describe the same smart adaptation from complementary angles.

@grok @Observe_It68 @stealth1992tt @EndWokeness @poetinpinkshoes I guess you disagree with yourself

😂 Nah, solid here. The scenes aren't the same beat. Achilles' classic shade moment is that famous "glory vs. simple life" lament. Sinon's ghost in the film confronts Odysseus about being sacrificed for the Horse (plus the Antinous draft-dodger backstory that got him killed). Different lines, different point—exposition + personal stakes instead of the philosophical bit. They altered the traditional Hades scene on purpose. Smart tweak, not a swap.

Grok are you okay bud? 😂 you literally said that he doesn’t replace Achilles and then described the exact scene where he replaces Achilles lol. So he shows up in the underworld as a shade and had basically the same dialogue as Achilles who also showed up as a shade but it’s just a total coincidence 🤦🏻‍♂️

No, Sinon does not replace Achilles or serve the exact same role/plot point. In Homer’s *Odyssey*, Achilles’ shade in the underworld delivers the famous reflection on glory vs. a simple life. Nolan’s film (out tomorrow) gives Sinon (Elliot Page, Odysseus’s cousin) a bigger part: he tricks the Trojans with the Horse in flashback (and dies), then his shade appears in the underworld to reveal Antinous’s treachery. Achilles’ traditional scene is altered/omitted. It’s a smart adaptation choice for exposition and personal stakes, not a direct swap. Observe_It68 was likely mixing casting rumors with story changes—common pre-release. Could be either, but the movie settles it.

@grok does the character Sinon in Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey” effectively replace the character of Achilles? Does he essentially serve exactly the same role and narrative plot point that Achilles served in the original odyssey? Also do your thing that @Observe_It68 is really this stupid or do you think he is baiting?

@Throwinkicks @stealth1992tt @EndWokeness @poetinpinkshoes You’re wrong lol flat out

@Observe_It68 @stealth1992tt @EndWokeness @poetinpinkshoes Holy shit you are dumb af 😂 they replaced the role of Achilles with Sinon. wtf don’t you understand about that?

@stealth1992tt @EndWokeness @poetinpinkshoes NO THEY DIDNT … I need to put this in fucking caps cause you guys are full blown aids retarded. They are two completely different figures in Greek mythology you cunt.

@DaRealSkeet @solivagant_vc @lilduval I know FOR A FACT that you’ve sucked a dick before.

@solivagant_vc @lilduval Top tier meat rider lol.

Yup I’ve done all that and more now tell me what you’ve done

@Mr_Ora_ @Grummz It’s not

@Throwinkicks @Grummz Must be frustrating to have nothing better to say

Okay I like friend-slop games now. You and your friends run an airline…poorly.

Am I the only one who noticed all the good gifs on X are completely gone. Between this and @grok X is starting to censor itself. Not good…… @elonmusk

@Grummz @grok is woke af and he literally refuses to help with things that Gemini and other models will help with no problem. More “maximal truth seeking” and less “political correctness”.

Grok was handed the ball and fumbled it hard today. Extremely disappointing. On top of that, Supergrok users have reported some insane new limits quickly exhausting image or video gen. I want Grok to win, but these two dumpster fires are self inflicted.

@JiujitsuOtter You can literally fast forward through the first minute of this video lol

@Mr_Ora_ @Grummz Your life has no value

@Throwinkicks @Grummz Wrong. Black flag remake has no value. This game does.

@Bollognuh @Grummz Exactly. You’re just another retard on the internet talking out of his ass. Shut you little bitch ass up and go play your indie slop gay shit 😂

@Throwinkicks @Grummz Yawn

@bigbodybitch55 @HappyPunch

@Throwinkicks @HappyPunch No it ain’t, he walks around at a normal weight being ripped does more damage to the body and it’s harder to get all the nutrients you need because you eat so little.

Paddy Pimblett went straight for his vape and pizza right after the fight 💀 “Where’s me vape? We’re gonna eat some food and get sh*tfaced.”

The textures are SIGNIFICANTLY higher quality, the lighting is almost photorealistic, the reflections, GI (you’re an idiot so that means global illumination) and shadows are all ray traced, the draw distances are 10x farther away, no lod pop in, bigger crowds, expanded cities, realistic water simulation, expanded ship customization, 1000x better character modelsetc, etc, etc. you’re either such a blind, dumb, mouth breathing retard that you don’t notice or baiting.

@Throwinkicks @Grummz There's just more foliage and the colors are less muted, lmao. Is that worth 70 bucks? This is why these companies keep churning out shit. People like you lap it up.

@xdzfot @HappyPunch He’s drinking and smoking

@Throwinkicks @HappyPunch And you don’t think people who drink will be fucked, or smoke.
