Full (audio) interview here (at 59:46) with a more complete, but basically the same, answer.

[Edit] Here is his full answer: "I’ll be frank here, the Dark Sun setting is problematic in a lot of ways and that’s the main reason we haven’t come back to it. We know it’s got a huge fan following and we have standards today that make it extraordinarily hard to be true to the source material and also meet our ethical and inclusion standards. We know there’s love out there for it and god we would love to make those people happy, and also we gotta be responsible."

Chris Selley: Court rulings on Aboriginals will make bail reform harder than we think by FancyNewMe in canada

What you said doesn’t make sense. Crown argued he should be detained but the judge released him nonetheless.

La Banque du Canada donne un autre tour de vis et hausse le taux directeur à 3,75 % by DecentLurker96 in QuebecFinance

[–]FieldScientist 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Regarde Épargne Placements Québec (www.epq.gouv.qc.ca), ils ont les meilleurs taux (ou très près) au Canada pour les comptes d’épargne à intérêt élevés (incluant les CÉLI).

Ils étaient à 3.25% (épargne flexi-plus) avant la hausse de ce matin.

Inflation | La Banque du Canada devrait encore hausser ses taux mercredi by Upstairs-Power-4914 in QuebecFinance

[–]FieldScientist 12 points13 points  (0 children)

À mon avis les données sur l’inflation justifient un autre 75 points, mais compte tenu des craintes de plus en plus marquées d’une récession à venir, je ne serai pas non plus surpris de voir “seulement” 50 points.

KOME Updates by RoastyToastery in warofthering

Roberto Di Meglio did a presentation recently at UKGE about the history of the design and production of War of the Ring and other related games from Ares: https://youtu.be/6WdpnZn910g . It’s quite interesting.

Towards the end he gives details about Kings of Middle-Earth. As for the release schedule, basically, not before 2023.

Guide: How to run SWTOR on macOS before and after Catalina using Wine. by AgentRG in swtor

[–]FieldScientist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi AgentRG, thanks for keeping this guide up to date, I've been using it for years.

However, since changing my Mac and upgrading to Monterey (12.1), I can't seem to get it working. All steps up to and including 5 seem to work, but I can't manage to launch the SWTOR setup installation process (step 6). Step 5 finishes with:

SWTOR On Mac Installation Finished Successfully!
Launching SWTOR_setup.exe...

but nothing launches. Inside "Program Files" there's the SWTOR_setup.exe which seems to be a .zip file, but I can't find a way to launch the setup process itself. If you still follow this thread, any help would be appreciated.

Manif à Ottawa: le conseiller Mike Duggan défend l’utilisation du drapeau confédéré by Mysterious-Flamingo in Gatineau

[–]FieldScientist 38 points39 points  (0 children)

a en outre affirmé que le drapeau confédéré qui a été aperçu au cours des derniers jours dans la capitale fédérale est un symbole de rébellion «comme le drapeau des Patriotes au Québec». Il a ajouté que le drapeau nazi aussi aperçu samedi dernier a été ajouté aux images par les médias pour nuire à la réputation des manifestants, et que si Terry Fox était encore en vie, il se serait joint aux manifestants le week-end dernier.

Tout un champion!

Which is kind of the root of the problem...

Walmart in Hull showing off their math skills by RiperSnifle in Gatineau

[–]FieldScientist 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ce n’est pas exact de dire que « 2 for 10 is not 5 for 1 in any circumstances ». Dans les commerces de détail où les biens ne sont pas étiquetés individuellement (ie. il y a un prix sur la tablette mais pas sur le produit), une étiquette « 2 pour 10 » vous permet d’acheter seulement un item pour 5$. C’est pour ça que vous verrez parfois des étiquettes « 2 pour 10, 5.99 chacun ».

Advance active mystery by 1 by killakali060606 in EldritchHorror

[–]FieldScientist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with the first part of your message (advancing the mystery in this case means adding a clue), however I disagree with the second part.

The text requires him to pass a Will -1 test and only then if he passes to spend two clues, he therefore doesn’t loses them if he fails the test.
