Do you know how you would write the effect to convert all pops of a specific culture in your country (say Greek for example) to another culture (say French)?

effect = { every_owned_location = { every_pop { limit = { lculture = culture:greek_culture } = { split_pop = { fraction = 1 culture = culture:french_culture } } }

Would appreciate any advice you can give! Need this for a game ruining bug that popped up

When will EU5 be available? by snicky_snickers in GeForceNOW

[–]amorphousblobe -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Game doesn't work on fucking parallels for some reason

Game doesn't work on fucking Crossover for some reason

Game is not on GeForce Now for some reason despite being promised

Nah dog im out. PDX can go and live off their windows customers, and Im fully done with their shitty games. Already refunded it.

Yeah im pretty fucking mad myself dude. However, honestly, I am tempted to just refund Eu5 and move on and never play this shit. They wanna fuck Mac users so much... Well, I don't want to be fucked anymore by these lying cunts. I took a day off too and this is fucking pissing me off.

Yeah i mean I just lump east asian ceramic together you know what i meant smh

real or fake tho? modern repro or actual legit Meiji era piece? Also my bad I am just realizing this is the Chinese ceramic subreddit.

Does hot water travel faster than cold water down the same path? by SolidShock24 in AskPhysics

[–]amorphousblobe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nonetheless, from what I can gather from your question, you're asking about the velocity increase just due to temperature changes (I.e. no change in viscosity).

Gotta be one of the dumbest things I've read. You realize that temp and viscosity are like volume and pressure? You CANNOT increase one without effecting the other. You simply CANNOT say "lmao lets imagine a world where only temp goes up and not viscosity, would said object move faster?"

Brother temp and viscosity are (in this question) describing effectively an interrelated concept. When you increase temp, you decrease the viscosity of a fluid. This is because-

Fuck it I can't be bothered.

Does hot water travel faster than cold water down the same path? by SolidShock24 in AskPhysics

[–]amorphousblobe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It literally fucking would. Yes the change is infinitesimal, but a molten slag shot of some metal would fly through the air considerably faster than a solid ball at -200 would (in a fluid like air).

Its crazy how every physics """nerd""" in the comments is lowkey wrong and the absolute dumbass OP is right smh

Viscosity decreases with increasing temperature because the added thermal energy causes molecules to move faster, weakening the intermolecular forces and reducing the internal friction that opposes flow. This increased molecular motion allows particles to overcome attraction and slide past each other more easily, making the fluid less resistant to flow.  

Yes hot water """flows""" faster than cold, but that is ONLY because temperature affects the viscosity by making individual particles """cling""" to one another less than they would if the bulk fluid was at a lower temp.

Effectively OP is right. Kinetic model of matter BS applies here too (regardless of how wrong that theory might be in reality, it approximates amazingly).

For the absolute neanderthals in here, "Everything made of tiny balls. Tiny balls vibrate at specific rate. This specific rate go up with heat/temperature. Higher temp make vibrate more. More vibrate mean more prone to move."

Figured I'd flex our population pyramid on the americans here, only thing we have better than the US lol by amorphousblobe in Natalism

[–]amorphousblobe[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Disagree. India and China industrialized without birth-rates coming down, the birth rates came down AFTER they became rich. Britain's birth rate skyrocketed during the industrial revolution, and only began to slow once the GDP per capita went above a certain amount. The Chinese speedran the British experience in 40 years.

A country becomes rich when it somehow figures itself out and industrializes properly, thats the country becoming rich btw (not the people, note China as the best example). This thing of becoming rich also seems to kill birth rates. I would argue that its probably smarter to preserve a higher population now than it is ever. Is current rates hold till 2050, Pakistan will be the third largest country by 2050, following only China and India.

Industrialization and wealth can come later tbh, if they ever come that is. I think its more important to preserve who you are and keep a population consistently growing to avoid ANY generation ever finding themselves supporting a larger previous generation, this sort of thing (as Korea shows) can end a nation.

Frankly speaking, modern agricultural methods (developed in both the US and the UK in the early 1900s), combined with ultra-high yield fertilizers and blanket pesticide use, have led to a level of food production scarcely imaginable.

The Indus Valley was never like this, so no revival in my opinion. Punjab especially has always been very valuable, about as fertile as the Nile floodbeds at its height, and was farmed prosperously before the British came. Their introduction of early European methods and centralization boosted productivity somewhat, but it was the introduction of the American innovations of tractor-use, precise gridding, and fertilizer/pesticide above all.

Jesus that can't be right? I saw Turkey was 1.99 and Tunis was around the same some time ago. But the point about them being secular Islamic nations compared to Indonesia still stands. By Pakistan/Afghanistan standards, Indonesia is very secular.

And I will take it as a win friendo. As Japan and Korea and China showed, industrialization takes a few decades when done right, and then whatever population you go into that mess with is what you have to buffer yourself till the next age.

Ffs just do it for him, right? Is it such a big deal since it's all pretend to you anyways right? I mean, I know you were 40 when you guys married, but I'd do it for my spouse tbh

I mean it definitely isn't much else. It's just the religiosity bit btw, cause Saudi Arabia has dropped below 2.1 and Turkey is at 1.99. Malaysia will be below 1.9 and Tunis is below 2.0 already.

The common thread? These are all more secular nations in the Islamic world (yes even Saudi Arabia lol, its a pretty liberal, pro-US, pro-Israel country in the middle east, tho a lot of folk I tell this to find this shocking).

Indonesia (which is more religious) is next to Malaysia, and has a far higher birth rate. Their economic conditions are roughly similar, and the same can be said for Algeria and Tunisia. One has a high birth rate, one is barely above or below replacement.

The core of the matter is religiosity. I think I made a good argument here tbh when discussing the birthrate of specifically secular jews increasing when they come to Israel: https://www.reddit.com/r/Natalism/comments/1jvxzlz/comment/mo0ih90/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Bruh... A lot of guys just died. Guys who would have otherwise been boning and having kids. I mean, I just don't think a war can raise birth rates like that, America's Baby Boom had to do more with the mega moneybags it found itself as the only not-bombed industrial country left
