There is potentially false economy in this depending on how heavily they are leveraged. Those high returns certainly look good, but they might be obtained by investing in derivatives that open you up to more risk - the kind that turns a survivable crash into an excuse to take up basejumping.
Someone wants to wind people up against muslims again. Gee, I wonder.
Yeah, we've heard that before. "The real victims of Islamic aggression are the Muslims who are wrongly blamed for their backwards war cult's crimes."
The woke bsky post still wasn't woke enough according to one reply:
I am not really a fan of this first point. Do the characters know they are bandits somehow? If the characters see gnolls attacking the village, it is weird to apply some sort of villainy to the situation before the players figure that out.
Both make sense for different reasons.
In New Orleans, an electric vehicle is a quiet, heavy vehicle with good acceleration that the attacker used in a ramming attack.
In Las Vegas, it let the attacker send a message to both Trump and the most visible member of his administration.
IIRC that was a cashierless store that used ActuallyIndians to tally your purchases as you put them in your cart.
Edit: Apparently it wasn't quite that bad - it was AI with humans double-checking everything, but the AI was apparently bad enough at its job that they abandoned the idea in favour of attaching the checkout scanner to the trolley.
Halve that weight and you've got a more accurate number. And that's if you're wearing full plate or mail, not leather. The actual argument against female soldiers in a medieval world is because combat is inherently adversarial: you have to be strong enough that your opponent cannot simply overpower you. It's not the equipment, it's the guy who is bigger, stronger and faster than you.
You are correct on the definition of "flanderised." The little I know of Spongebob I learned from memes, but it's old enough that you might have people writing Spongebob who grew up on Spongebob, creating an exaggerated version because those are the memories that lasted to adulthood.
Doesnt google have a quantum computer that can break encrypted code in 5 minutes? Which otherwise would take 70 trillion years?
No, they don't. They have a quantum computer that can do something useless in 5 minutes that would otherwise take 70 trillion years to simulate. The most charitable reading of their accomplishment is that proving quantum computers can do something classical computers cannot is a first step to proving quantum computers can do something useful that classical computers cannot.
And there are wild unproven speculation that the quantum computer is drawing on the power and computational power of other quantum computers in other dimensions or universes.
Yes, because they're snake oil salesmen trying to use such ridiculous claims to hype up their useless machine.
That is incorrect when talking about sea ice. Any floating object displaces an amount of water equal to its mass, and this includes icebergs. A one ton iceberg displaces one ton of water, and when the iceberg melts it will shrink to fill that same volume.
There's a fun demonstration of this for Ptolemy's epicycles on YouTube. His model can describe the movement of the planets from a geocentric frame of reference, but with enough epicycles it can describe any orbit no matter how contrived.
This is a retarded post even though it is true. If you want to make these kinds of claims, name the study. Name the researchers. Don't deliberately obfuscate your sources because doing so makes any skeptic justified in assuming you're hiding something.
For a better source, here's the data straight from NASA.
It's also still possible to argue against your position using this data: the doomsday cult can simply say their reforms are the reason for the growth of the sea ice.
It is everything wrong with society, but it's also under a government that just tried to railroad a man for restraining a violent lunatic who was threatening to murder everyone. Good men doing nothing is the deliberate outcome of Democrat policy.
I wouldn't make that claim without knowing why these games stopped working. If it's something like Ubisoft's DRM being blocked from doing something it shouldn't, then the update's a good thing.
