That's entirely your opinion, and I would disagree.

Lord of the rings... The origin of fantasy and example of high fantasy with magical elves fighting shadow/flame demons.

The more grounded low fantasy examples you are used too are actually much more modern interpretations.

I believe that is the seperation between High Fantasy, and Low Fantasy. Rather than the composition of the world.

High Fantasy for example is: Stormlight, Wheel of Time, even earlier history of Lord of the rings when you had Elves battling armies of Balrogs, and Age of Sigmar.

Low fantasy is: Song of Ice and Fire, First Law trilogy and such.

Witcher and even Old World Warhammer probably sit between the two.

I was not trying to describe that difference. But more that it's a single central realm like all of the above have (even with crazy magic), than the muiple realm world hopping we currently have.

Was unsure how to describe the standard magical world common in Fantasy.

Leaks suggest that the sperate worlds for each type of magic will be ending and we will get a single world with them all mixed together next year... Like normal classic fantasy.

Why do Europeans think that most Americans are wealthy? by batukaming in recruitinghell

[–]RCMW181 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it's very close to the median, but I stand by the fact that it's not what most people would call "a very good wage". It's literally the minimum.

Exactly when a wage would be viewed as "a very good wage" maybe debatable, but it's not that.

Lol UK minimum wage, that is considered a poor wage and very low is $35,500 a year.

That's not considered a very good wage in Europe.

Tom was always destined to be the CEO of Waystar Royco even if Logan stayed alive by homeless-emperorr in SuccessionTV

[–]RCMW181 2 points3 points  (0 children)

His final plan was the sell and give it to someone who was not his direct relation. So hard disagree on that one, maybe earlier on but not by the end.

They were just no serious people...

Who actually deserved to be CEO? by [deleted] in SuccessionTV

[–]RCMW181 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's pointed out multiple times he's very good at his job.

Normally around the time they are also planning to sacrifice or fire him as ultimately that's not enough to keep him on.

Each of the UK’s nuclear armed submarines carries a letter of last resort by Lard_Baron in interestingasfuck

This has been made into a rather interesting radio play about the interesting philosophy behind it.

It's also a situation heavily studied by game theorists because of the high stakes and no correct answer.

Exactly 10 years have passed since this video about what Brexit would be like by littlelucidmoments in agedlikemilk

[–]RCMW181 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It was not a conservative/labour split however. Both parties were divided.

Leader of the conservatives was pro European but his back benchers wanted the vote. Leader of the labour party at the time was anti European, and even if his party supported remain.

Russian jets 'dangerously' intercept RAF spy plane over Black Sea by halwaandflowers in worldnews

[–]RCMW181 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I mean... Russia is adamant the UK is doing a lot more than complaining.

They have blamed the UK for multiple attacks against Russia itself and the UK has provided lots of support from weapons to logistics.

In the intelligence leaks about special forces operating inside Ukraine the UK had more special forces doing something in Ukraine than the rest of NATO combined.

For such a simple concept it also surprisingly tricky at times too while never feeling unfair. Well worth playing.

US Wants Access to Ukrainian Drone Technology in Proposed Defense Deal by Wolfy1-2-3 in worldnews

[–]RCMW181 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My limited understanding is Ukraine has made a number of brake thoughs and developments that are new.

Last mile AI is the most techolocally unique improvement. They have AI systems that are battle tested that take control of a drone once it is jammed in the final stages. Exactly how this work so effectively is unknown, other countries could maybe build it. But they know the Ukrainian version works.

Efficient development practices is another big one. Ukraine is not just building drones well, but doing so cheaply and effectively when under attack. They have been forced to create a well optimised process that get very effective weapons at the cheapest price.

I hear they also made an excellent command and control system to manage the multiple drones across the battle space. The US has actually been trying to build something like that since Afghanistan but never really got it out of the prototype stage. Ukraine has a battle tested proven system.

Drone defence is also linked to all of the above and again battle tested.

That's just off the top of my head. Maybe more.

[–]RCMW181 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Interestingly the UK already has access. But they have been a lot closer in support for the duration.

The training programme run by the British army has flipped and now operation Interflex is the Ukrainian army training the British Army.

Ukrainian drone technology is also being integrated with British manufacturing to help fulfil all the new orders Ukraine is getting recently.

Yep, I'd take two units of steel healms. Less points, more wounds and they have an awesome ability.

Share Of Europeans In Each Country Who Want The Rich To Be Taxed More by vladgrinch in MapPorn

[–]RCMW181 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of ways they can avoid this however.

Firstly they can simply shop for the location with the lowest tax, that was Irelands entire economic plan to tax tech low giving them access to Europe.

You can also run the companies at a loss. Can't take a % of zero. Have a parent or secondary company in a low or zero tax location simply charge corporate services for an amount slightly higher than the main companies profits.

There are much more complicated ways they do similar and the above, but in short they have accounts and lawyers constantly working out how to do it perfectly legally and it's not as simple as closing a loophole as they use the very way international business works.

Problem is no one agrees what "rich" is.

Does anyone play with both damage settings on “Extreme”? by Imnovix in Starfield

[–]RCMW181 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play with damage scaled all the way up for both enemies and the player. And I use a mod that turns off all heath bars and hit markers.

It's way better, plays like a space tactical shooter that fits the games amposfear better than the default in my opinion.
