If it's controlled then it isn't chaos is it?

Stupid Shadow.

wait hold up did Knuckles just not assume Shadow's gender in the movie? or are the captions here for the meme and not the actual lines?

doggirl-smart there is actually a well-developed control theory for chaotic aka nonintegrable systems. its not so much intentional butterfly effect, as introducing small feedback to move the system into & stabilize periodic orbits.

if the groundowl hates shadow that means 6 more weeks of winter

I like Shadow, I just think Chaos Control is funny

early spring, says groundowl

Chaos tends towards order in aggregate, literally chaos control in action. Atom's don't really follow the traditional energy level model, they just have a reasonable probability of being somewhere along those lines. But the structures can be relatively stable and rocks don't blink out of existence.

Also spontaneous order is a well studied part of Chaos Theory. You're wrong again.

In conclusion, Shadow haters get the wall and you're not a communist. ban-hammer

I'm pretty sure that if the early 2000s soundtrack jammed hard enough while Shadow was doing it that that would be different.

Wow! He's fast! Wait, it's not his speed, he must be using the Chaos emerald to warp!

The civil engineer who designed radical highway should be fired

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 10 points 4 weeks ago

Their task was to create a radical highway and they succeeded. Some might even say the result is bodacious.

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago

Shadow is an edgy boi, so he just came up with something he thought sounded cool.

Nobody correct me with Sonic lore.

Idk but I've been watching a playthrough of SA2B recently and the nostalgia hits sooooo good. Definitely a game I'd rather watch than play, though, because damn is that game janky as hell
