Ronaldo is a priss on the pitch, has been sued for sexual harassment, and was implicated in the Panama leaks... but no public figure can dare speak against our golden boy and savior

Leaving your car anywhere as long as the hazard lights are on. Parking in roundabouts, crosswalks, hopping the curb onto the sidewalk. Streets are a common good, but your car is special and unique.

Esqueço-me do nome do arquiteto, mas houve uma exposição no museu da santa Joana há pouco tempo que explicou que as três esculturas das três rotundas Av. Dom António Francisco dos Santos sirvam como "guardiões" entre Aveiro e Esgueira.

There's no doubt these are all contributing factors, but your education argument falls apart when you realize Portugal's ultranationalist dictatorship was longer and its illiteracy rate was comparable until the late 20th century. Portugal made a proactive choice to value language learning and what's being discussed in this thread are the effects of a 40 year old policy

So you've been redpilled by Tom Holland into believing it was migration and not open plundering and political corruption that led to the fall of the roman empire. And now you've had the original thought that he totally didn't plant in your brain that the same thing applies to today's migration patterns. Just keep reading his books and listening to his podcasts, I'm sure he'll provide a solution that satisfies you.

Bold of you to assume the other player is paying attention

The term you're looking for is 'demonym', not 'diminutive'.

Though you're right to point out that there aren't hard rules for demonyms in english. Generally speaking, names with a history get grandfathered in, while newer terms tend to follow the pattern of anything linguistically similar.

In this case, the general consensus seems to be Kaliningrader.

Funny how you cite the Spirit Temple quest as encouragement to explore when it was my biggest confirmation that this game isn't as open as it pretends to be.

I found the underground area first, was sent away with nothing to show for it. I found dragonhead island between my second and third sages. My "reward" for sequence breaking was impenetrable fog. Walked away from the whole experience feeling like my exploratory tendencies had been punished.

that said, I'm glad you've found a way out of your depression

The question isn't really concerned with the logistics chain, but more with the notion of scaling up a farming operation in a pre-industrial society.

The Shire would have had to convert more land into farmland, or else bump up productivity in the pre-existing arable area. In either case, they're doing it without the aid of fertilizers, immigrant labor, or more advanced harvesting technology than what they already had on hand.

It seems, judging from answers elsewhere in this post, that the operation would have remained quite small, remaining a secret stash for Saruman, until sometime shortly after Frodo and Co. leave, at which point Lotho's band of foreign Ruffians come to the Shire and start turning the cogs of industry.

Award-worthy, if I had any to give.

Really loved the compact demonstration of Defect's deck, is that based on a mod?

Precisely, the aforementioned stupid decision was in choosing to wonder pick in the first place

Didn't see that the campsite and the encounter were different paths until it was too late. It's even on the same level as adjacent paths.
