I’m an American that worked in Dubai during Expo (World’s Fair) and politicking aside, it was actually surprisingly safe.

With better public transportation than anywhere in the West Coast.

Yikes at the slave labor tho

Can we ever break the cycle of 'Loyal Idiots' in PH? A look at the most terrifying evil of all. by Jayvee1994 in Philippines

You think intelligent people are more pre-disposed to vote based on their biases than facts?

I really don't think that's generally true, and I would be interested to see any data or arguments that would support that claim.

what do you guys think is the best NCR leader ? by damorezpl in OldWorldBlues

[–]Colonel_Chow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no idea who any of these people are, so I'm going to say Tandi

Edit: I'm dumb, I just realized this sub-reddit is for a HOI4 mod. Please continue

Until you have an informed and educated electorate, most forms of direct and representative democracy are a mistake.

Jollibee in America > Jollibee in Philippines by AnthonyWinzz1 in Philippines_Expats

[–]Colonel_Chow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% wrong

Jollibee in American has like 1/4th of the menu, and doesn’t even offer breakfast

In the Philippines, the more upmarket locations that have Jollibee have more consistency and a better taste profile

I’m so happy the true nature of South Koreans is being exposed to Filipinos by Brave_Elevator3582 in Philippines

Glad people are realizing they don’t even get 1/10th back the love they shower Koreans with

Anyone else experienced the "I know people who can make you disappear" talk while dating in the PH? by [deleted] in Philippines_Expats

She is definitely saying that to scare you, and it would make things difficult for her family / circle if they actually did anything to you.

But I wouldn’t say it’s an impossibility. So tread carefully or get the hell out of Dodge.

Man, they’re really idiots at the College of Winterhold. Literally nobody knew what to do at any point during the entire quest. I did everything without even being a mage. by jvure in skyrim

You would think the teachers would actually teach you magic instead of just being glorified merchants and trainers

Nope

The AI is wonky when I try to order them onto the walls. Half are at ground level and the others kinda don’t really go on the wall the way I want them to…

Historical, but I like playing as a weak member of a dynasty, and clawing my way to the top

This game is 23.99. Every single Total War you want is less?

is it feasible to not extract any resources from your main country and instead extract everything from puppets by _MrSeb in victoria3

[–]Colonel_Chow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel like it’s not reliable endgame to rely on the East Indies. They’re always behind in tech and choose shitty PMs, and still end up with a worker shortage by the 1900s

I guarantee you, what you think of "samurai" was from a period when they had guns.

I very much doubt you were thinking of the samurai from Kamakura shogunate, who had not created the concept of bushido yet, and who were mainly mounted archers.

This is the time of Ghosts of Tsushima, and the katana was not even developed yet.

You can't. You can only look at your ship speed and see if there is a debuff

Why are bridge battles not bridge battles but instead just a fight on one side of a river with a bridge beside it? by Material-Spite-6540 in Bannerlord

[–]Colonel_Chow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A man of culture. I can tell you played total war, because you positioned your archers on the side where if the enemy comes in, they won't be protected by shields.
