You have to go more Im13andthisisdeep with it:
‘When a set has no elements we call it empty. It’s always unique, but contains nothing inside it. What is something else in your life that is also so simple and empty, yet utterly unique?’
Then you wait for a hundred replies, 50 listing various containers that are special to them and the other 50 telling you it’s their soul that’s empty.
Okay wow. This was really uncalled for. What did I ever do to you?
Let me know how your back feels in the morning
The way it was always explained to me was anything containing even a small amount of caffeine was problematic. I appreciate you correcting me on this.
They’re serious about following the rules because their entire social and community structure stresses conformity. If you break the norms of the faith there are serious repercussions and you can lose your entire family, community, and support structure. When they’re alone with others who aren’t of the faith they are definitely far more lax. I’ve drank beer and even had chocolate with Mormons before lol.
I have family in Utah and there’s a pretty common joke in this vein.
Why do you always invite two Mormons to a party?
Because if you only invite one they will drink all your beer.
That’s how it shows up for me at least. Reduced aspect ratio and the top/bottoms of images are cropped to a standard size. I have been needing to wait a second for the image to fully load it’s full format rather than needing to interact with a post though - it just happens automatically when it’s in view on the screen.
The iconic police Crown Vic model was discontinued like a decade ago. Like 80% of police cars I see nowadays are SUV’s.
On March 12, 2010, Ford Motor Company unveiled the Ford Police Interceptor Sedan. While sharing a nameplate with the Crown Victoria Police Interceptor, the Police Interceptor Sedan was a variant of the sixth-generation Ford Taurus, shifting from the long-running Panther chassis to an all-wheel drive version of the D3 architecture.[29]
In a design decision, the Police Interceptor Sedan did not adopt the Taurus nameplate, as it was sold alongside the Ford Police Interceptor Utility, derived from the Ford Explorer. Along with heavier-duty components and a redesigned interior, the Police Interceptor Sedan adopted higher-performance steering and suspension tuning. The standard engine was a 3.5-L V6, but a 3.7-L V6 (shared with the Mustang) later became the standard power plant. A twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V6 (shared with the Taurus SHO) was also available as an option.[30]
The Ford Police Interceptor Sedan was discontinued alongside the North American Ford Taurus model on March 1, 2019.[31] The Ford Police Interceptor Utility remains in production as of 2022 as Ford’s main police vehicle, sharing its design with the civilian market Ford Explorer.[32]

unparalleled equine realism
This is going to be the Red Dead realistic horse testicle thing all over again isn’t it
on a large scale doesn’t this mostly protect people from dangerous debts?
Not really. It just ends up with lenders offering far more predatory interest rates, which worsens the situation for the debtor. The system is set up in such a way that you can spiral pretty hard with a single misstep.
There’s a difference between wanting to have good credit so that you can benefit from a garbage system and wanting that system to exist in the first place.
Those companies are: Asmodee Group, which comprises Embracer’s tabletop games biz; Coffee Stain & Friends, an evolution of the existing Coffee Stain publisher, who will pursue “a dual focus on indie and A/AA premium and free-to-play games for PC/console and mobile”; and Middle-earth Enterprises & Friends, “a creative powerhouse in AAA game development and publishing for PC and console, as well as the stewards of The Lord of the Rings and Tomb Raider intellectual properties, among many others”.
Besides, I’m not sure how much of this is Embracer “breaking up” versus Embracer moving the pieces around. Even as Embracer trisect themselves, the investment firm run by CEO and cofounder Lars Wingefors will keep their current holdings within the group - “approximately 20% of capital and 40% of votes” – and will form “a new long-term ownership structure” so as to “remain a long-term, active, committed and supportive owner of all three entities."
- The entities will have sufficient scale, coupled with clearer operational strategies and financial profiles that enable simplified equity stories to attract a larger pool of investors. Current shareholders can freely decide on their capital allocation between the three entities.
- Each entity will be able to fully utilize its own balance sheet, its own set of financial targets and optimal financing structure and capital allocation strategy that enable their growth ambitions.
Tldr: Embracer is breaking into three sub-companies each with a focus on specific parts of the industry - indie, A/AA, AAA. Smaller games won’t be punished for poor performance and management of larger projects because of separate balance sheets(allegedly). Leadership is still basically the same.
I mean, there’s inspiration and elements from Dwarf Fortress, but it’s absolutely its own gem of a game. It sounds like your son needs to sit down to play and then wonder where the last 12 hours went himself!
I am very surprised that there is only one legitimate reference to the original coining of these terms from the beginning of the French Revolution so far in this thread asking what these terms mean.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who found the world resets frustrating. I agree that the world is interesting and atmospheric, but as someone who enjoys thoroughly exploring, the resets just kept ruining my immersion into the world. Maybe one day I’ll go back to the game.
I always hate any viral math post for the simple reason that it gives me PTSD flashbacks to my Real Analysis classes.
The blog post is fine, but could definitely be condensed quite a bit across the board and still effectively make the same points would be my only critique.
At it core Mathematics is the language and practices used in order to communicate numbers to one another and it’s always nice to have someone reasonably argue that any ambiguity of communication means that you’re not communicating effectively.
Unless it was a few very specific US states, this isn’t really relevant. The minimum age to sign up for an account on Twitch is 13.
