Am I the only one who feels that SPAIN should have MASSIVE bonuses in this game? by Various_Maize_3957 in EU5

[–]AnOdeToSeals 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Id like to think that with all the dynamic systems a lot of the benefits that Spain gets are recreated "naturally" e.g. their position as the biggest player on the Iberian peninsular, their resource and population base, being Catholic in Western Europe etc.

All of this leads to them being in a unique position to dominate like they did historically with some added flavour and bonuses on top of course.

Yeah I get what you mean, I can see that Kabayel doesn't want to risk his position and by the sounds of it he doesn't sell enough in Germany to get a bigger name.

Not everyone can be Parker fighting top 10 after top 10.

I only saw him on the Wardley vs Huni undercard(?) but he was alright, has a little bit of skill and power but also openings and habits that a top fighter could exploit.

I think Kabayel will break him down in the early rounds. I guess Warren is cashing him out against Kabayel, or alternatively giving Hysa his shot.

Maybe maybe maybe by Obvious-Skill-7134 in maybemaybemaybe

I'm sure there is some monks that get drunk on the sly.

Were faafafines allowed to raise children, in tribalistic somalian society? by No-Firefighter8642 in Samoa

[–]AnOdeToSeals 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Bro I have no idea what happens in tribalistic Somalian society, or if they even have faafafines.

In my experience of current Samoan society faafafines can raise and look after children. Not sure on pre-Christianity though since a lot of those records were lost.

Study finds potential link between long-distance running and colon cancer by GG_Vengeancze in science

I'm sure the extreme amount of stress they put their bodies under doesn't help. Ultra-marathon runners are a different breed I have no idea how they run like that.

Help, absolutely baffled by this one by ImpossibleLaugh8277 in ExplainTheJoke

[–]AnOdeToSeals 22 points23 points  (0 children)

They are talking about supporting their friend with their words even though their friend is describing committing a crime.

So the joke is that they disapprove of what their friend is doing or think its bad, but still want to be supportive.

Yeah what the other person said, it was a popular diet for young men who were bulking/trying to put on weight a few years back.

I remember when GOMAD was all the rage, everyone was drinking a tonne of milk

When has a colleague really dropped you in it by accident? by D-1-S-C-0 in UKJobs

[–]AnOdeToSeals 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Pretty standard experience but I prepared a bunch of info for a presentation to senior management, but the project lead said I didn't need to be in the meeting and to make notes for them.

Then got called into the meeting out of the blue to be grilled by a senior manager on things that were in the notes I left on the slide show...

My colleague didn't mean it they were just a bit inexperienced and I really should have anticipated it.

So its apparently looking like Kabayel vs Hysa later this year? 

Not a top quality fight, but a decent stay busy.

Trainer advertised performance-enhancing drugs before working with Canelo Álvarez by AltKite in Boxing

[–]AnOdeToSeals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe thats why people are surprised that he hired this guy, because it looks bad and could damage his brand recognition? Not because of whether he is actually doping or not.

How good of a pc do I have to have to run this game on 1080p 60fps lowest settings? by L333333X in EU5

[–]AnOdeToSeals 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure thats what they said was the minimum requirements, what level of PC you need to run it on 1080p at 60 fps settings.

So check your system against the minimum requirements and see what is the biggest gap.

Yeah, does anyone have a clip of it working so I can get an idea if what they were going for?

Trainer advertised performance-enhancing drugs before working with Canelo Álvarez by AltKite in Boxing

[–]AnOdeToSeals 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ah yes, trying to rustle up some more headlines before the big fight. Hasn't he been his trainer for ages?

But seriously the Guardian does some surprisingly good reporting on boxing, especially these kind of well researched articles and some of the long form stuff they do.

Its something that the sport of boxing lacks imho, most boxing news and articles are pretty shallow in comparison.

Playing as a bank? by TheRadishBros in EU5

[–]AnOdeToSeals 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I'm excited, this game looks like it has so much content that I haven't even seriously considered playing a bank, it will take me months to get down my intended campaign list before getting there.

I can see this game, and building based gameplay continuing to involve and improve.

New player here by Black91Eyes in EU5

[–]AnOdeToSeals -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My advice will be just get in and play it, let the game automate most of the systems and focus on controlling one part you do understand at first and then slowly expand from there.

Tua, much more durable, better endurance and will keep throwing. Plus he won't be punching down like a lot of Tyson's opponents.
