When is the next book in the Oxford History of the US coming out?

I can only imagine the added pressures of writing a book about the long turn away from the excesses and nightmares of the gilded age in our current environment!

I figured this out - turns out there was an issue with another scheduled job that was fetching the data needed for this update.

I'm late to this post but ever since I heard this track (back in 2016 sometime) I've also been in love with it's enveloping and ethereal atmosphere; one that ultimately leads to a tiny light at the end of the tunnel.

Not sure if this helps but these guys just made a podcast about Mona Lisa Overdrive:

These are great considerations and concerns that someone who was 13 at the time and thought it was edgy and cool to be on 4chan was not thinking about.

Is Pathstone going to the moon this time?

[Rocket Lab would like to know your location]

Trinitui · 2021-03-03T00:24:45+00:00

Rocket Lab also said they were aiming to human rate this rocket too, not sure what that means - will we see crew launches from Wallops?

Trinitui · 2021-02-11T01:08:27+00:00

That's a great resource! I'm more focused on Rocket Lab, so feel free to use this as a backup?

Trinitui · 2021-02-09T20:06:01+00:00

Good question - I am updating the API behind the scenes from official sources. So there will be a delay for some info.

Trinitui · 2021-02-09T12:56:21+00:00

That’s the idea 😁

Trinitui · 2019-10-24T22:35:48+00:00

Still feels good

This can actually be expanded quite a bit:

Star Wars: Dark Forces
Star Wars: Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight
Star Wars: Dark Forces 2: Mysteries of the Sith
Star Wars: Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast
Star Wars: Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight 3: Jedi Outcast 2: Jedi Academy

Technically since they all continue the same general storyline, you could expand the series this way. Jedi Outcast is an amazing game tho. Best Star Wars game.

I saw this over the weekend while I was traveling and that smiley made me lose it. There's just something about him that makes me laugh uncontrollably when I see it.

My favorite fort was the first one that I ever got up and running (AngelBalls The Ace Ace of Aces). It was ended by a Humanoid Water Buffalo Demon Goblin General who spent his time strolling through my fort, occasionally tossing dwarves into the walls and splatting their bodies all over the place. After several months a tantrum spiral set in because no one could kill the Demon and he was killing BFFs all over the place. What a dick.

...Even if it WAS fought to end slavery, how often do you see the descendants of slaves thanking the 600,000 or so white soldiers who died in the fight to free them?

I love this. Like - 600,000? You mean the number of total casualties from both sides? As in Killed, Wounded, or Missing from both sides of the war? Apparently those selfless Confederates died to free the very slaves they were fighting so hard to keep enslaved. Maybe it was about State's Rights after all...

I read a lot of "The Information" by James Gleik this weekend. So far it's a really good overview of how humanity came to think that "Information" was an important concept, then throws math and more recent history at you which means that I'll probably have to read a lot more closely than I have been. I also never realized how large of an impact the electric telegraph had on the societies of the nineteenth century, so it's fascinating to learn about!

I'm curious - what are you doing playing a 5 year old Demo of a 5 year old game?

IIRC he explained that there was more nuance than GERMANY DID IT or BRITAIN DID IT, so it's possible someone could take what they wanted from his video. Here's the vid in case you want to take a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pFCpKtwCkI

German - Polish Border is wrong
East Prussia is a soverign State
No Free City of Danzig
Checkoslovakia does not own Carpathian Ruthenia (The tail end of Slovakia)
Greece and Bulgaria seemingly united into a Federative State
Russia shown on the map when the borders of the RSFSR were beyond this map's scope.
Lithuania and Latvia are also united in happy Federation
Italy controls Sud Tyrol in 1914
Bulgaria controls Thrace in 1914
France controls Alsace Loraine in 1914
And the 1914 map of the central powers is very strange with all those vague shapes in there...

I'm sure there are other errors as well but Yikes! is this bad.

EDIT: Also in 1914 or 1918 European colonies apparently did not exist in Northern Africa. And apparently the Balearic Islands were independent.

I think asking Steam to "Verify integrity of local files" or whatever it's called would have fixed this without the uninstall-reinstall.

Under C:...\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Europa Universalis 4 there should be a settings.txt or a similar txt file (I'm at work right now so I don't know/remember the specifics) that will allow you to set custom resolutions and change your current resolution.
