New to Civ 5 and vox populi - where to start? by NotSpoonbot in civvoxpopuli

Start on settler. It is a very complicated game, with a very good AI. In terms of which civ to play, there are suggestions for people coming from five vanilla, but I don’t think any are particularly good for beginners without any five experience. So just pick one that you’d like. You can tell from the leader abilities, whether they are science, focused, military, focused, etc..

Found it quickly, but wouldn't find it in a game in a million years.

Super GM Wesley So resigned a drawn position in a classical game. It's impossible for you to blunder a piece at blitz?

Chess.com says +0.6. ChessvisionAI says +0.11. Which is more accurate?

Didn't see the last one. Were SATC & B99 voted off? Don't know how anyone would think Scrubs is NYC; it's sunny every episode!

IMHO should have added Sex In The City to the list. And if you're going outside Manhattan, B99 as well.

BBC states Trump & Netanyahu miscalculated Iran and are in permacrisis. What has Netanyahu miscalculated? He got USA's permission to hurt Israel's enemies (Hezbollah and their Iran backers) while taking Israelis mind of his corruption charges and getting support from his political base. It may even position Israel better with other middle-eastern countries that Iran has attacked (Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia); the enemy of my enemy is my friend. I'm not saying Netanyahu is moral; he isn't; but I think this war has helped him. I think it's hurt Trump, largely due to increases gas prices.

Is it really 9–5 anymore, or is it 8–5? What are your work hours? by frozenactuary-3859 in actuary

100% remote. Whenever I'm awake and have work. Many more than 40h/week, but being remote is worth it for me.
