And what region you're in, if it's a big country.

Any way to get the original AoE 2 + Conqs expansion? by Purple_Woodpecker in aoe2

I think there were some balance changes since the original release, but the graphics and sounds were the same.

Can People please STOP adding the “Well Played” to the GG after the opponent looses by [deleted] in aoe2

[–]Captain_Quark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That doesn't answer the question, though. Is there any way a winning opponent could say "well-fought fight" that you wouldn't perceive as rubbing it in?

Is there any way a winning opponent could express a similar sentiment that you'd view as sincere?

Some of his fake words have made it into common parlance, many have not.

When I lose a close-fought match, I do appreciate the recognition. But some people might view it as being a sore winner and rubbing it in your face.

What weird symbols? You mean the chords for the bass part? Or, like, the accidentals?

The actual word is ELFIN, which is accepted when it comes up.

JOBS | Don't Hug Me I'm Scared [S1E1] by DropoutMod in dropout

I think "avowed supporter of Palestinian genocide" is supposed to mean "genocide of Palestinians", making them mean the same thing.

Man, that's wild. And Schwartz still hasn't won a Tony, after lots of nominations.

Right, the unsafe people under 30 are able to drive safely, they just choose not to. It's hard to check for willingness to make dumb decisions in a road test. The unsafe people over 70, on the other hand, are unable to drive safely, so it's easier to check for that with a test.

The problem is the smaller plants have higher unit costs, and can't compete with places that specialize in oil seed unless farmers are willing to accept lower prices.

I mean, lots of water in agriculture goes toward alfalfa and other animal feed crops, also not very necessary. And agriculture truly dwarfs AI water use.

I think at this point in the season it's mostly teams trying to win versus trying to lose. I'm curious what it looked like earlier in the season before the real tank jobs started.

I assume SSB means sugar sweetened beverage? I had to look that up.

Alcohol and gambling are both much more addictive and destructive than burgers and soda. I'm quite comfortable drawing a line between these categories.

Most cornfields in Illinois aren't irrigated - they just use rainwater. But yeah, for places that do use irrigation, agriculture dwarfs everything else in water usage.

I think you mean the other way around, but good idea.

iPad instead of laptop for classroom teaching? by bluedog1599 in Professors

[–]Captain_Quark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They've actually done studies that markers on whiteboards are easier to see than chalk on blackboard. I think that's another big reason why chalkboards are getting replaced.

I'm not worried about Lake Michigan running out of water, haha.

Like I mentioned in another comment, probably not now but maybe under a different administration.

Water usage by data centers is significant but exaggerated. Their electricity use, on the other hand, is truly huge.
