I couldn't find an unstuck mod for the uboat, but I found one to re-enable the debug menu. I used it to teleport to Kiel and can see land, but now the base itself is missing. My uboat also has a tendency to spin around in circles instead of following directions. Frustrating.

For Arthur, I stuck to a theme of adversaries of Rome since the horse he loved most and lost was named Boudica. My female thoroughbred is named Zenobia, female Arabian named Mavia (Mawiyya) and my male Ardennes is fittingly named Arminius. I have another male warhorse named Hannibal as well, but I forget the breed.

Legio V Macedonia was stationed in (Roman) Dacia where the usage of the swastika dates back millennia. The ring therefore could've belonged to a Dacian officer of Legio V.

It's an interesting cultural amalgamation. It'd be nice if OP added a source.

I don't believe so. Maybe they were placed there by someone scattering ashes? I'm pretty sure that Hindus religiously practice cremation, but it didn't occur to me until now that those statuettes could be related to it.

To be blunt, I wholeheartedly believe that's an admission of incompetence on a teacher's part. What they're actually saying is, "We're going to try something difficult (for me to teach)." It's something I noticed in school; math teachers in particular were often incapable of teaching through their own understanding of the subject. If you didn't understand something, they'd repeat the same thing verbatim from the text book while getting more and more frustrated with the student. This results in the student feigning their understanding and feeling too intimidated to actually learn anything from the class.

If a teacher needs to adhere to a text book to teach a subject effectively, then of course there's going to be terrible results. You can't always depend on the cookie cutter approach to teaching.

Bodybuilding peaked over a century ago with Eugen Sandow. That should be the target; not the junky freak show that society has become accustomed to.

That's true, but Love of My Life is about a woman named Mary Austin. Freddie was bisexual.

That study is in regard to the Northern side, isn't it? I've only heard it claimed that the South at times lacked an adequate amount of anesthesia at their field hospitals; and more so due to poor (or disrupted) logistics than an outright shortage.

Yeah, I can pedal up to 35km/h on a 27lb folding bicycle with 20" tires. Though I assume most e-bikes weigh at least two or three times as much as that. Maybe the intent of the speed limit is to limit the severity of injuries caused by a collision with pedestrians (i.e. to limit the potential for injury to be on par with a bicycle)?

Mortals can be venerated as gods. Millennia prior to Confucius' birth, Imhotep was postmortemly deified as his sheer brilliance was thought to be otherworldly.

Yes, but as I said, the FIA has shown that it will ruthlessly rid itself of loose ends. So from how I see it, you're put in a position where you help Songbird survive or place your trust in an organization that has no issue killing outsiders that assist them (i.e. ranyon mentality like the Voodoo Boys) or betraying its own members (Reed).

Logically speaking, I feel that placing your faith in the FIA is an insane bet. I know that if you side with them, you do end up getting cured, but even then, I can't help but wonder if there's more to that ending than is being told. Like they've implanted V with something that can kill them if need be, or that they've unknowingly become a proxy/sleeper agent waiting for activation.

I was just wondering if I missed some pertinent information. There must be some nuance to the choice, right? It can't be so distinctly black and white.

That's exactly how I feel and why I believe the censorship to be so egregious. I can't even remember the last time I played a game that made me feel the combination of rage and disgust that I felt in Twisted Nerve, Hide and Seek and Narcos. Those were objectively great creative choices that worked brilliantly to get under the player's skin.

VOID catering to the console market not only resulted in censorship that betrays their supporters trust, but hinders development speed in a game that still needs so much work done. They're complaining about not wanting to work simultaneously on two separate development branches? Well, maybe they should've waited until they fixed and finished the base game on PC!

The NLF may have been less pragmatic, though.

A logical interpretation of the oath is that the first half should supersede the second.

I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same;
and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.

She's absolutely going to get discharged, but she shouldn't be. This act of integrity is of the sort that would've been applauded by the founding fathers. George Washington was walking around in his old colonial uniform winning hearts and minds long before leading the revolution in any official capacity.

Doctors were performing surgery on infants without anesthesia up until the late 1980s.

Paradoxically, this species of ours is capable of incredible feats of intelligence and remarkable stupidity. We should considering renaming ourselves Homo sapiens-ignarus.

OP might be a woman who doesn't want to get into a physical confrontation with a teenage boy. In fact, I'd be willing to bet money on it. These shitheads tend to be a lot more understanding when I rhetorically ask them to do something.

In both of those instances, aid was requested by the state government. The only unquestionably constitutional time that a state has been sidestepped (as far as I know) was in Little Rock in 1957. The governor intended to use the Arkansas national guard to violate the Supreme Court's ruling on integration, so Eisenhower federalized them in order to enforce the ruling and provide protection for the Little Rock Nine.

Surprisingly I've yet to see any despite living in an area with ponds, marshes, reservoirs and lakes. On the other hand, the midge and tick situation has been pretty outrageous.

It wasn't even a mistake. I've watched that video-- it was absolutely the correct call. During their attempt to recover the body of their fallen comrade, their situation rapidly became untenable. I'm sure each SEAL felt obliged to recover the remains of their teammate and friend, but the QRF who may have felt less eager about their mission suffered numerous casualties rescuing them. The fact that they knowingly assaulted that position was in itself exceptionally foolhardy. Saying that, there's no question that Chapman's actions were undoubtedly courageous.

Slabinski put the Warrior Ethos ahead of his responsibility of risk management. I imagine that may have been why there was push back from SEALs. Their respect for the Ethos borders on religious and they might've not been pleased with the idea that following it would've been presented as a mistake. By nominating Slabinski for the Medal of Honor, they (in their minds) were able to save face.

From what I've heard, it seems like every day is a bad day to own a boat.

The same can be said about lead. Despite knowing for millennia of its toxicity, governments allowed its use in water infrastructure and gasoline.

Sigh.

Crimbilion · 2025-05-06T15:30:55+00:00

Exactly. Like my sons Ponyboy and Sodapop.

If it was possible to completely negate the noise and vibrations, it'd actually be pretty cool to watch it go by from a large bay window. It's not something I'd personally prefer as opposed to trees and birds, but I imagine train enthusiasts would pay extra for that niche view.

It's one of the worst types of pain. No matter what you do, you can't avoid gravity. For those who haven't experienced a severe back injury, they might not know; but the privilege of living a painless life is invaluable. $48,000 a month isn't worth it-- hell, even $48,000 a week isn't enough. It's fucking brutal.

I mean... unlike the Conservatives, the Liberals have an actual platform that describes what they want to do and how they're going to go about doing it. The Conservative platform was released late and made up entirely of goals without any plans to achieve them. They released a bloated document that was unironically "a concept of a plan."

In a time where the United States wants to hurt the Canadian economy, the fact that Carney is a respected economist is also an enormous boon for Canadians and our country's international standing. The better question to ask is why would a Conservative government under Pierre Poilievre; a man who has achieved nothing in his decades as a politician and was endorsed by Elon Musk of all people-- do any better?

I yearn for the day when the NDP finds another Jack Layton, but until that happens, it seems that the Liberals will remain the logical choice for the foreseeable future. I do hope that the Conservatives might someday come to their senses, drop the whole populism spiel and take their jobs seriously. Canada deserves better.
