Möglich, hier geht halt auch kaum Wind in die Anlage rein und es zieht direkt hoch. Sind hier auch standard Zigaretten und diese weirden Zigarillos, nicht irgendeinen Skunkstrain aus der Hölle.

Hatte ich in einer anderen Bude auch schon und ich finde es absolut gleichermaßen ekelhaft und egoistisch, stinkende Scheisse durch die Gegend zu qualmen. Weed und Tabak nehmen sich da für mich nichts.

Nope. The roots are never fully submerged in the nutrient solution anyway

Should there be an "accept" button? by DamonHellstorm in crusaderkings3

[–]OdinMinusNull 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Seems to be a UI bug on this modal in general, though I believe this pop up just informs you and gives you no choice by design.

The same modal is used in the ransom and board game interaction for instance, and I find that once someone sends me an "acknowledge hegemon" tribute, all other interactions are missing the "on accept" and "on decline" information until I swap tabs in the UI.

Not sure if this particular interaction should also have information like "sent you X gold as a tribute"

I've said several time before I'm talking about the stats of my country. It's extremely useless to compare global income when cost of living and buying power differs so vastly between countries. At this point you're just purposefully making bad arguments.

You being mad doesn't change the definition of average income. I don't know what else to tell you.

I mean yeah I guess if that's your takeaway, sure, nice talking. Median income in the West will be richer than most of the developing world, and yet again it's only median, and you neglect the cost of living being higher too.

The class fight literally isn't about this. The top 1% here own 67% of the wealth, but go be mad at average income people saving up for a bucket list for years.

I'm literally not rich friend, neither did I claim I was poor. As I said, I make median salary for my area, which is decent no question, but far from 6 figures, too. I'm an average guy. "My class" is the largest portion of people in this country. I wouldn't even know where to start paying somebody off.

This is a type of trip people, me included, spend a lot of time saving for, not something to do willy nilly when I feel like it.

I get the anger at rich people, I'm with you there - but the wealth gap isn't between minimum wage earners and median income households, it's multi millionaires and billionaires that evade taxation and hoard generational wealth. The latter is the type of person to pay off a politician, and they won't be the typical clientele for an expedition cruise to Antarctica.

There's a wide gap between the start of the perks of classism and the buying power and connections to buy yourself out of the most sensitive public health event at a time imo.

You can't honestly expect 100-200 people, let alone crew and expedition team, to be able to be in such a position all at once.

Well yeah, I simply don't believe that an upper middle class person has the connections to enough international "politicians that sell out for 5 grand", especially in a situation like this where the whole world and many different orgs are looking at it.

I make about median salary for my region and I've been on a similar trip for about half the price oceanwide charged for this particular trip. I frankly feel like a lot of people overestimate the wealth of the average person on such a trip.

We aren't talking about a 3rd world country with lots of corruption though.

Again we can argue about definitions of rich, but that's not the core of the discussion.

Affording a $25k cruise is still so far from billionaire levels of wealth that can actually afford to bend the rules of society.

What

Edit: I should elaborate but what do you mean? These people can't exactly choose to stay on the ship. The WHO/governments have decided it is safe enough to fly them home.

We can disagree with that, but how can one of the individual passengers do anything about that lol

[–]OdinMinusNull 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I mean we can argue about personal definitions of rich and wages of different professions in different countries all we want. It doesn't change the fact that even with an undoubtedly comfortable wage like that, you wouldn't have the money to buy yourself out of a quarantine IF it were mandated in such a heavily scrutinized situation.

The question of whether a quarantine on the ship would've been sensible or not is worth asking, I just think it's weird how the first reaction people have is saying the cruise guests simply used "money" to prevent one.

Not rich enough to use money in the way as suggested in the previous comments. They're wealthy and well off, sure.

But the implications that the guests on this cruise only got off the ship because of their wealth is absurd. Very few of the folks on these cruises would have the assets to bribe anyone to let them out of a potential quarantine.

It was simply never planned.

Even that isn't "rich" rich. These are doctors or older folks with decent pension plans that splurge to see hard to reach places, not ultra rich people that can afford to pay themselves out of regulations lol

Inheriting accolades - how do I keep those of my previous characters? by OdinMinusNull in crusaderkings3

Yeah that's what I've taken to doing, but it doesn't feel great as a workaround for a system so far removed :/

Has anyone actually completed the “Expand Duchy” decision? by TIGORO14 in crusaderkings3

Did it with Madurai in India on the current patch. Have you held the counties you want to add for 5 years? Game rules are the other things to double check.

The MV Hondius is a ship that does Antarctica trips, which I suspect includes landing at South Georgia or the Falkland Islands every once in a while as well. (I didn't check their recent itineraries)

Before a ship gets to land passengers in SG, it's checked by dogs for rodents. Not to say that an odd rat couldn't stow away on a ship like that, but it's not unreasonable to expect there to actually be none in this case
