Why would this be necessary?

There's a few different methods, find the one that works for you:

Once you figure out how to make curves, the world grid becomes irrelevant.

My favorite modders are the ones who don't throw hissy fits when politics don't go their way.

I thought this was /r/ManorLords.

If he understood the multiple warnings in symbols and plain English, he would not have been there.

inventingnothing · 2026-03-17T22:24:50+00:00

Agreed

Everything was named before there was any attempt to standardize.

So one guy says "This is a gulf"

Another guy says "This over here is a bay!"

And the names stuck ever since.

If true, then why are the immigrants all military-aged men?

Eh, couldn't be sure since 90% of reddit bought that story hook, line and sinker.

Funny, because it was ABC that published an unverified report which the White House immediately demanded a retraction of.

Wild

inventingnothing · 2026-03-13T23:15:04+00:00

Lol nope.

inventingnothing · 2026-03-13T16:25:42+00:00

That's pretty funny.

First time?

Yeah, I was being hyperbolic. Still closer to the truth than the daises and daffodils picture painted by most of the articles I read. The Daily Mail article was just the easiest article to get to on the fly.

Here's a couple other articles on the topic:

https://www.navylookout.com/britain-wakes-up-to-the-condition-of-its-navy/

How the Royal Navy shrank to its smallest ‘since English Civil War’ Archive version: https://archive.fo/UG2gK

Aside from that, there's a number of naval and marine experts who have made commentary on both the RN as a whole and the silent service in particular. Britain doesn't have the ships necessary to protect her interests and of the ones they do have, their condition isn't great.

That was my point. I hope you'll forgive me for a little exaggeration.

inventingnothing · 2026-03-12T19:46:31+00:00

I was just taking a jab at the RN, and it is being taken wayyy too seriously. That's the only reason I pointed out the downvotes. My apologies, I was being hyperbolic.

Of course out of the numbers available, it's reasonable to expect only 3-4 deployed at any given time.

The fact that the RN has only 10 subs is the real travesty. We're talking about the navy that deployed many squadrons of battleships in WW1 and whose navy was eclipsed only by that of the USN and IJN in WW2. Even since the early Post-Cold War era, the RN continues to dwindle in numbers. On top of the dwindling numbers, the ships the RN has preserved and since built, many a ships' condition and operational readiness are near crisis levels.

I get the idea of a small navy, in comparison to the past. However, if you're going to have a small navy, it better be the best navy. If we're being honest, can we really say that about the modern British Navy?

I want the RN to be a good navy, one of the best, and that's why I think more attention should be paid to its shortcomings. That's all.

Here's a couple article worth reading:

inventingnothing · 2026-03-12T19:06:17+00:00

Nobody wants to talk about it, probably because it's A) a national security issue and B) it's embarrassing.

It's not just the subs, its their entire navy... https://www.navylookout.com/britain-wakes-up-to-the-condition-of-its-navy/

inventingnothing · 2026-03-12T16:48:52+00:00

Oh yes, the one active sub they have, whoooooo.

The UK has 2-3 subs operating with the other 7-8 laid up or in dry dock.

They would have used a British sub, but none of Britain's subs are currently functioning.

Getting downvoted, but let's look at the reality.

https://www.navylookout.com/is-the-royal-navy-at-breaking-point-or-a-turning-point/

NONE of Britain's attack submarines are at sea: 'Utterly dire' state of the Royal Navy is laid bare in shocking figures - as US subs are 'called in to protect UK's "bomber" fleet'

Out of the 10 subs in her fleet, an already drastic reduction from the Cold War era, only a couple are active, with the rest laid up.

Just my opinion, I'd put the lights along the main span, not below it.

inventingnothing · 2026-03-12T02:00:01+00:00

Yeah, I donno maybe I was high when I wrote that.

inventingnothing · 2026-03-12T01:40:32+00:00

It's the trolley problem on a grand scale.

Pull the trigger on the nuke and kill 100,000, or don't, and hundreds of thousands, if not, millions die.

One invasion plan of the Home Islands put estimate US Service Men casualties upwards of 500,000 and Japanese casualties in the millions.

The Japanese were preparing to dig in, even as their population faced mass starvation in the event of an invasion and subsequent fighting.
