Who would win in a battle between the Spartans (Halo) and the Space Marines (Warhammer 40K)?
Space Marines would destroy Spartans in any battle scenario. Spartans are mechanically enhanced humans trained from birth to be elite soldiers with the best technology available to the UNSC. They can take on much larger opponents such as Brutes and Covenant Elites, and still come out on top. Definitely the most dangerous soldiers in their respective universe.But Space Marines are of a different class. Space Marines aren’t just super well trained soldiers. They are literally the genetic heritage of Gods. They stand at the height of a Spartan without wearing armor(Around nine feet I believe), their weaponry and armor is designed to combat enemies that would rip Spartans to shreds, such as hordes of Ork Boyz, or Daemons, and Space Marines are stronger, faster, and smarter than Spartans.Spartans are trained from birth true, but Space Marines simply have a larger capacity to think tactically and fight efficiently due to enhanced cognitive ability from the gene enhancement process.Spartans are perfect humans with the best tools their people can offer.Space Marines are Angels of Death equipped with the strongest armament a galaxy wide Imperium can offer.Even perfect humans are nothing to the children of god.
How did the Greek gods, Zeus and Poseidon, die?
They didn't.Greek gods are immortal. They cannot truly 'die'. In order to 'kill' the gods, you have to destroy the significance their domains hold. For example, if Zeus has to 'die', his domain; the sky and the lightning must hold no significance. That means that when the sky and the lightning are no longer acknowledged and worshipped by the people, only then can Zeus die.Similar is the case with Poseidon. For Poseidon; The God of Oceans and Seas, Earthquakes, and Horses, to die, people must no longer acknowledge these bodies. In fact, only two gods are said to have truly died.One is Pan; The God of Nature, The Wild, and The Shepherds.Pan is said to have died when people ceased to worship nature and the wild. People stopped worshiping the nature spirits, the Naiads, the nymphs etc.In fact it is almost widely accepted that the death of Pan marked the advent of theology and Christianity. It is said that Christ was born as soon as Pan died ( It is not clear whether Christ was born after Pan died or Pan died after Christ was born ). People stopped worshiping the nature and started worshiping Christ. As a result nature went un-acknowledged and Pan “died”.The other god is Asclepius; God of Medicine, Healing, and Rejuvenation.His myth is very different. Asclepius is said to have been killed by Zeus as Asclepius had brought back Hippolytus back from the dead in exchange for gold. This angers Hades who asks Zeus to kill him. Zeus kills him with his thunderbolt. It is said that later Zeus brings him back and orders him not to bring back anyone from the dead without his permission.Hope my answer helps!
Were the Ancient Greeks and Romans white?
Steve Theodore gave an excellent answer. I would add that a Roman (or Greek for that matter) would not really have understood this question in the sense that it's asked.There were certainly Roman citizens with fair skin (the sun-deprived residents of Londinium) and there were Roman citizens from Africa with very dark skin. But modern racial categories can't be applied to antiquity. The closest Roman categories would be place of origin (Spain versus Africa, for example) and citizenship versus non-citizenship, with citizenship being the most important category by far. Citizenship or slavery in ancient Rome didn't correspond to racial categories.If you mean to ask the more specific question of "were Romans of unmixed Latin descent 'white' in the modern sense derived from 19th century Scientific racism" then sure, I guess you'd consider them to be part of the Mediterranean race, but they were "white" in the same sense as Israelites, Egyptians, and North Africans. I am pretty sure that the Latin people's of Italy wouldn't have considered themselves to be more closely related to a "white" group like the Celts than to North Africans. They certainly thought of themselves of being West Asian in origin, Aeneas having come over from Troy.As far as genetics, you could perhaps link the Latin Romans to the Haplogroup R1b descent group, which is pretty European/white as far as it goes, but also has strong clusters in Africa and Asia. You could also link them to the Haplogroup J-P209, which looks a lot more West Asian/East African. Of course, I would argue that genetics isn't really a great resource of racial identity, since race is made up.Calling an Roman or Greek "white" is like calling Cato a libertarian. I sort of see what you're going for, but the term just doesn't fit.
Is there room for another ERP software offering? Is there room for an open-source offering?
I would say that you are better off building something that meets two or more of the following conditions: 1. Leverages your considerable strengths in the Electronic Component Distribution and Manufacturing industry 2. Has cloud suitability 3. Some companies in your installed base will pay for It seems your greatest strength is domain knowledge. I am not familiar with your target industry sector, but for all manufacturing and distribution sectors, certain areas are more SaaS-suitable than others, such as field service management and transportation management - anything where a configurable, out-of-the-box solution would suffice for a large number of prospects and where remote access and distributed deployment is likely to be a common usage scenario. Given your in-depth sector knowledge you would know what kind of variants of transportation management (for example) to build. I bring up SaaS because the upfront costs are low and the trend is definitely in that direction, not open source. Generally speaking, open source tends to work a lot better when the consumer of the software is a developer.
