Harry Potter@literature.cafe•How did Voldemort actually die?English
1·5 days agoAt that specific point Harry Potter was still the second to last existing horcrux (leaving Nagini as the last one) so you could say the Elder Wand was actually aiming for the piece of Voldemort horcrux.
That makes sense logically. (If the curse didn’t hit Harry at all)
But that would be far too absurd a spectacle. Imagine Voldemort watching his own Killing Curse fly out and curve straight back at him mid-flight. LOL
I personally don’t think that fits the serious atmosphere of the final battle.

Harry Potter@literature.cafe•How did Voldemort actually die?English
3·5 days agoAt the end of GoF, Voldemort used Harry’s blood to create a new body for himself. Dumbledore later implies that this act gave Harry the option to not die when the pseudo-horcrux within him was destroyed.
I think this reason is the most logical. But that would make Harry invincible to Voldemort, because Harry will never die as long as Voldemort lives, which seems… not a very well-constructed plot, like Harry can never die from Voldemort’s magic from the start, which makes all his struggles in vain.
Harry later implies that this act protects all survivors of the BoH from Voldemort.
Other reasons all have their loopholes. Harry’s sacrifice might be able to protect his allies just like the same magic Lily bestowed upon Harry, but I don’t think Harry’s sacrifice can protect himself from the Killing Curse.
I think letting the spell bounce back when Voldemort tries to kill Ginny would make more sense.

1·5 days agoIt didn’t refuse to work, it just wasn’t working at its true power, which is why harrys expelliarmus won the duel, and caused is own curse to rebound. Simple as that, the wand didn’t really want to do his bidding, or not at its true potential.
The thing is, the book says the wand cast a Killing Curse straight at Harry. I don’t know whether it hit Harry or not. If it did hit Harry and then rebounded off him, how does the magic work there? Does Harry have some kind of aura around him?
If it didn’t hit Harry at all and the curse just flew 180 degrees back toward Voldemort, that would seem more convincing. But if that’s the case, why did the wand kill Harry the first time in the woods? Why didn’t it just fly out, spin around, and hit Voldemort then?

Also IMO a wall of machine translated text isn’t that helpful. English is one of the most common second languages already, but if someone wants a machine translation in a different language, they are likely to do so using their preferred tool. This post is just kinda cluttered

2·2 months agoWouldn’t I miss out on some of the controller’s features if I don’t use the official software? That’s why I’m looking for a controller that have open-source software that I can safely install on my computer and use to explore all the features.

3·2 months agoYes, I’ve come across that controller, but I’m looking for a more polished solution — something I can purchase and use out of the box. I don’t require open-source hardware; I’m only interested in open-source software.

3·2 months agoThanks, this could be an alternative, but I generally avoid contributing to password-protected torrent files because they can appear suspicious and make access less convenient for users.



Of course it have the relation to the core philosophical disagreements of the openly bigoted antagonist versus the essentially neoliberal protagonist.
But that doesn’t mean readers should overlook the plot holes. Addressing these inconsistencies would make the story’s themes and message far more convincing and easier for readers to accept.
