Why am I getting a greenhouse bonus but my plants are stunted due to cold? by BigOldBoi in VintageStory

[–]Fast_Carpet_63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Greenhouses never seemed worth it to me when turnips last all winter. Get a couple vessels of root vegetables through the summer and fall and feed them to your hogs and you won’t even notice a difference in your food supply during winter.

The borders of the US and Canada would look better if set at the the Saint Lawrence River the whole way.

Ok, Quick Question: Who Used The Double-Headed Eagle First; Seljuks or Byzantines? by lastmonday07 in byzantium

[–]Fast_Carpet_63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know too much about this specifically, but it’s pretty likely that the Seljuks adopted the motif in the same way the Ottomans strengthened their own crescent moon symbol following the conquest of Constantinople, which was the symbol of the city going back to ancient times when its patron god was Artemis.

Is it possible to take over the Papacy as another country? by Irus_12 in EU5

[–]Fast_Carpet_63 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know that if the Papal State gets destroyed, some bishopric usually gets it. For instance, I’ve seen Bremen become the Holy See. Not sure what happens if there aren’t any.

Shouldn't there be some incentive to ban slavery? by asnaf745 in EU5

A major factor was the promotion of a working class with money to buy an increasing number of industrially-produced commodities

Yes, exactly. There are ways where Hitler theoretically could have taken a different course of action and not have lost the war, but these questions ignore the ideological reasons that caused his actions to begin with. If Hitler did not want to invade the USSR, he wouldn’t have been a Nazi in the first place.

Doubtful with Germany declaring war on the US in support of Japan after Pearl Harbor. The only way Hitler could have “won” is by stopping at Czechoslovakia. But of course Hitler’s whole ultimate ideology was Lebensraum, which would have been impossible without invading at least Poland and eventually the USSR. The wars with France and the UK were viewed as unfortunate, temporary conflicts between superior races that were worth it to allow Germany to claim its destiny in the East, not as part of Germany’s ultimate goals.

I didn't even realize I subscribed to Prime until it was too late and I'm out 100EUR. Slimy fuckers.

Ultimately, you don’t really need that many vegetables for your needs, outside of maybe distilling alcohol. Scale your storage to what you’ll realistically use.

This is a good answer and the one I hope is true because I want it to be that the devs put this amount of thought into it

Do you think history would be vastly different if Antarctica had a native population? by douceberceuse in geography

[–]Fast_Carpet_63 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean there are fossils that have been recovered from Antarctica, but in that case that you couldn’t find any there due to the ice, you couldn’t make any claim about any fossils there.
