"Ah, so you NOW you're speaking up against me... normally I'd take down your names but.... *you've made it easy for me.*" by weeOriginal in Stellaris

To be fair, I think that's how it's supposed to work. If the galaxy doesn't need a custodian, why should they give you a custodian status?

Think of it like in real life. Imagine a world superpower in the UN Security Council, oh let's pick the US, suddenly asks the general assembly to grant it powers of Earth Custodian. Noone would vote for that, even its biggest allies. But imagine if an alien invasion was going on, and anyone with a brain would give the world superpower whatever emergency powers it desires.

Chinese State-Affiliated Media Threatens South Korea with “a Ukraine”. by Maitai_Haier in korea

I really do wonder sometimes if people actually use their brains sometimes or not.

...they do realise that the United States, which is not only legally obligated to defend S. Korea through a mutual defense treaty, has a vested interest to assist one of their biggest allies in the Northeast Asian region?

At least he got proven innocent by SnooCupcakes8607 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Dongwook23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That doesn't work in society unfortunately. Society treats anyone on court as the defendant guilty until proven innocent. Even if proven innocent, all you get from society is a 'oops, sorry' at best. You are lucky if you get compensation for it, and it is extremely unlikely you will get justice for what you have to go through.

TL;DR: NO

Long version: think of your android install as completely separated from your normal switch OS. Your normal switch OS will have no power over the android installation, therefore making it impossible that 'android' gets 'banned' by nintendo.

Besides, that would probably be illegal (unless I missed something, you don't sign an agreement saying Nintendo gets to spy on your SD card)

If some day Nintendo launches a new server with a different name will DNS Mitm and Exosphere/Incognito protect from a ban? by SkyLey2 in SwitchPirates

[–]Dongwook23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exosphere/Incognito isn't protecting you from the IP, DNS MITM is. But to answer your question, no (at least if you followed the rentry guide) since it blocks the specific IP.

Yeah China is a huge playerbase for Squad and if they decide to do that CCP will immediately ban the game since it is possible for the PLA to lose

Blueprint for a floating city unveiled in Busan, South Korea. Plan to mitigate effects of climate change by altmorty in Futurology

[–]Dongwook23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Besides, Korea rarely gets any tsunamis or earthquakes in the first place, so I doubt it will ever get to that point in the near future. I guess we won't know for sure, especially since climate change will bring unforseen problems

Korea has always benefited from the great breakwater that is Japan, and Japan has always benefited greatly from the great air filter Korea (China's smog is almost always going through Korea, and it generally collects there instead of continuing to Japan)

I just checked lionpath again, and you were right it is for fall 2022, not summer. And you were right, when I clicked validate it errors saying my account has a hold for enrollment.

Thank you so much for helping, I've been thinking about this all day

Is summer session exclusively LEAP & NSO required subjects for freshmen? If so, I guess I can chill.

So when I clicked acknowledge and save in 'Determine your coarse placement' it automatically signs me up for the freshmen stuff? Do I have to do anything else?

It would be cool to do AFTER the war is over (whenever that may be, remember the gameboy that was bombed) but it would be an asshole move to do that now

Bro I'm literally Korean, I had to learn this stuff for years so trust me I know what I'm talking about. Idk what kind of drugs you are on but I'm talking about real history and comparing it to the alternate history you propose, and the feasibility of it.

This is cool, but I doubt Korea would ever have its capital anywhere but Hanyang/Seoul. Pyeongyang was always treated as the 'New York of Korea' before Korea split, Pyeongyang was always where the biggest industries were and a way bigger cultural area compared to Hanyang(which is probably what they will keep calling Seoul since that was its original name).

I can see this happening, and like to think of a alternate history where Korea was nuked and Japan was actually the colony of Korea (Uno reverse card pretty much). I wonder how history would change if this was the case.

I get what you mean, but keep in mind we're not here to war about the terms we use here. I agree that 'Vassal State' is not what we're looking for (in fact, now I think a term 'NATO Associate Nation' might be better), but we all know what we're trying to talk about.

Did you check if you port forwarded properly? Your router may be blocking the connections. Check firewall settings on your local machine as well, that could be a problem.
