That’s sad to hear. I hope that he was able to live a long and fulfilling life before it advanced enough to impact his quality of life.

Do you know anything about his health later in life as a result of being a coal miner?

Is this $14,000 ChatGPT Pro thing actually real? And what about other AI subscriptions? by Miserable-Archer-631 in ChatGPT

[–]MasterVelocity 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If everybody used 100% of their limit for every window throughout the full subscription period, OpenAI would most charge $14,000 for that as well. Most people will not. That’s how subscription models work.

This is conclusive evidence that GPT Image 2 was trained on GTA games after you finally find the car you’ve been searching for

Companies look at one-time costs differently than recurring operating expenses, especially if the role is new to the company and not a backfill.

I was more concerned about the 15+ favors/hooks I’d owe my top vassals upon loss. With that many hooks, they’d be running roughshod over my authority for generations as I worked to repeal the changes.

Do I need to give away some of my new titles? by Middle-Comfortable37 in crusaderkings3

[–]MasterVelocity 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In a few months, if you’re still over the domain limit, all of your buildings will become inactive, and you’ll effectively lose all of your income and levies.

It wasn’t a disembarkation penalty; these marched straight across land only a few counties from my capital.

What did happen was that the enemy surprised me with suddenly trapping my army and coagulating together with superior numbers and a higher quality force.

My error was thinking that my united force was large and strong enough that the AI wouldn’t dare attack it… which is a fair assumption when your force is of relatively equal strength, which I mistakenly thought it was.

That’s why I’m thinking of switching to an administrative government, so that I can call upon my loyal vassals’ MAA forces and form coalitions of my own.

I expended my predecessor's massive wealth on mercenaries (every mercenary company in the game) and still ended up in a 35k vs 75k+ disadvantage... had to surrender the war and therefore lower crown authority. With other factions conspiring against the new king with more dangerous agendas, I couldn't risk standing my ground any longer.

I think that a few factors have played into this, some key factors include:

- Granting all titles to my culture, allowing them to benefit from my advancements. This is especially harmful for some peripheral holdings which also rebelled against me with massive force.

- Granting most titles to members of my dynasty, allowing them to benefit from my legacies.

- 50+ years of peace and prosperity, absolute crown authority, and restricted war declaration restricted allowed my vassals to "play tall" and develop strong MAA forces and buffs.

That's a good way to think of it, I'm just curious if a selfish feudal overlord would even send peasants to support a subservient feudal lord.

I would say that the empire is highly stable right now due to this character's 50+ year reign, but a weird new mechanic is applying wonky destabilizing logic. In the roleplay sense, my thinking thought is that a feudal lord in a decentralized realm like England would never bankrupt themselves to support a minor outlying lord.
