The Chilluminati Podcast - Episode 134 - (20)22 Alex Mysteries

I'm not religious, but if me and someone else were struck by lightning 6 or 7 different times while filming Passion of the Christ, I think I'd take that sign from God

[@Seyiall]

Yeah, Zeus must've been livid.

I prefer chilluminuggets to mini mysteries, but honestly these felt more like a chillumitease; each had a setup up to it with no payoff and it gave me chillumi-blueballs, thanks Alex 😂

Please don't speak edcutadvertizing into existing. I love all of you guys, please please please, do not speak that into existence. But I love you. And if an grateful for you guys making this podcast. From the intro music to the Segway into advertising, into the meat and potatoes, I love you. Keep it up guys, you're on the right path!!

[@justinbennett9998]

But edutadvertising is already a thing...

Not sure what it was, but growing up, I was obsessed with the ninth gate. Something about it draws you in. Not sure if it was good or not, but I liked it.

[@normalusernameiguess1516]

I also heard that the family murdered in Germany may be connected to a bunch of other axe murders (including big ones like the villisca axe murders) in the US. It seems like a plausible theory according to a book called The Man From The Train. I found it interesting at the very least.

[@5555petros]

Happy New Year to all and I can't wait to see what 2022 has in store for this podcast.

[@MaleTears]

Oh thank god, it’s an Alex episode!! 😩🙏

[@TeeKay33]

I liked these many mini mysteries.

This episode gave me anxiety. Alex did a great job with this episode.

[@Cruxion817]

Since they didn't mention it when talking about the Library of Alexandria, I feel I should mention that when it burned humanity as a whole didn't lose much, if any, knowledge. For starters, most texts in the library were simply copies made of any texts that passed through the city so no scrolls inside it were the sole copies of that text. Additionally, it didn't burn down as is often thought, it simply declined over centuries as scrolls fell apart or were lost/damaged. Though there were fires in it's history, none of them destroyed the library. Though the trope of lost knowledge there is really fun to mess with in fiction.

[@Domdrok]

I love Little Nicky! The CGI didn't hold up at all, though.

[@milokonna]

On one hand, when youre struck by lightning multiple times, when youre filming sacrilegious movie, it really seems that God tries to scold you in the most obvious way, but on the other, there was many many more sacrilegious movies, "Judas and Jesus" for example is pretty wild one, and most of them, don't have crazy things happening around. Then one must ask a question: If it really was God or Devil or whatever, why they were so pissed of for that very specific movie?

[@justinbennett9998]

It teaches summoning and posession. Can confirm. Will give more info if youre curious but dont kill your cat. Hint learning this trick does involve killing a cat. Or other small living thing. Children are not accepted.

[@yokayoksven]

Even though the mystery of Entombed is fascinating, it, however, has been solved. There's a paper by Leon Mächler and David Naccache called "Explaining the Entombed Algorithm" that explains how the table works and expands it to something that can generate 3D mazes.

[@burnzygg]

Love the longer chill pods. Thx!

[@chop5891]

I'm telling you guys check out the book Ringmakers of Saturn by Norman Bergrun. Not an in any shape or form meant to be entertaining but an academically written purpose of telling. Very surprised how little i see people talk about this guy or his work and basically his contribution to the space industry (NASA and others.). Can't find any one more than credible to talk about extra outer stuff than this guy.

Jim Caviezel was in that Person's Of Interest show. It was a pretty good show.

[@eblackbrook]

"Despite the widespread modern belief that the Library of Alexandria was burned once and cataclysmically destroyed, the Library actually declined gradually over the course of several centuries."

[@alexolson9317]

Superb! Cool ideas for the show guys. 👍 It's nice to experiment with various formats and ideas. Good job.

Lonleygirl was NEVER believable. First off, it was obvious the girl was much older than her claimed 15.

[@PhilCW10]

Not to really burst the bubble, but generating mazes is something you do in College level computer program sophomore classes. Using recursive software development you can generate a maze which is always solvable. Sounds like the real mystery here is how this game got made without comments. // always comment your codes kids!

People keep saying the past two years have been bad. Nothing has really changed in my life apart from recent inflation but that’s manageable. Think a lot of the “turmoil” is entirely psychological and depends on maybe 1) where you live and definitely 2) how much nonsense being pushed you actually believe.

[@morgannegriffin9899]

Yes! Thank you! Literally nothing in my life has changed except having to watch the general public go nuts around me and obviously seeing companies pushing certain policies that do little to nothing. If it wasn’t constantly pushed down my throat I wouldn’t notice anything but the price hikes.

The fire in the Library of Alexandria didn't set humanity back a single second. Because only the books was burned and not the people who wrote them. There were also many copies made and sent of to different parts of the known world for a long time before it burned down. It burnt down because the people burnt it down because the idiots in charge didn't explain to the people what the knowledge was. The library had doors that opened on their own when someone approached them just like in a supermarket today. It was a clever mechanism using pressure plates and counterweights but that was never explained to the public so they naturally assumed it was black magic. Heron of Alexandria had a demonstration of his Aeolipile on the steps of the library. It's a brass ball that contains water and when a fire is lit underneath and the water turns in to steam the steam is pressed out of the nozzles on the side and it spins. And it spins fast, really fast, and makes a huge hissing noise and there is this huge cloud of steam and fire. Imagine you being one of those in the crowd right at this time, of course you would think that this is black magic, and the people did. Because the idiot Heron didn't explain how and why it worked because he thought himself of being on an higher intellectual level of everyone else so he didn't explain anything he did. So when hard times fell on the people of Alexandria who do you think they blamed for angering the gods like this? That's right those black magic blasphemers over there at the library with their hissing balls that spits fire and brimstone and their magically opening doors and all the other stuff they have in there. So they burned it down but copies still existed and Heron could just write new scrolls and books and so on. Some say that the romans didn't use steam engines because the knowledge was lost when the library burned down. No they didn't use steam engines because they had slaves. A steam engine in those days would require some really expensive parts and then some really nifty and clever engineers to tend to them and then there was the constant service and maintenance and fuel and water and the risk of it all just exploding. Why have all that hassle when you can just toss a piece of bread on a slave and say "when you are done chewing on that I want a ditch here". So no the Library fire of Alexandria didn't set us back, the dark ages did that, and then a plague ended that and then the age of enlightenment happened. the Renaissance. Sound familiar, so go kiss and hug and be real close and maybe just maybe we will have a new age of enlightenment?

@@kevinlist3330 There was another library in the Temple of Serapis had been completed when the fire broke out and that didn't burn. Do you know why idiots rule the world? "tldr" thats why. Educate yourself and be a leader and not a follower
