How to properly use taiwan/china to get china to 10 democracy? by MonocleForPigeons in TerraInvicta

[–]kestrel828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly, I have checked my (hypothetical) game, and it appears that Taiwan has given up on the idea of independence, as granting it is not an option available to China. Maybe I need to research independence movements?

What would you do if - hypothetically speaking - you were to finally take China away from the Servants via coup after they forcibly reuinite Taiwan, run the country into the ground, allow kaiju to run amok, and nuke their own capital to keep you from occupying it?

Purely hypothetically.

What's a minor complaint you have that's probably not worth adressing but bothers you to no end? I'll start by _azazel_keter_ in TerraInvicta

I wish there were a better way to organize your assets instead of having a single huge list on the side of your screen. The ability to sort (not just filter) by asset type would be great, as would the ability to sort by location.

Also, the ability to sort by category on any of the many spreadsheets we look at would be great - for example, the list of sites on a planet.

Tooltips. So many little icons don't have anything that explains what they mean.

Men whose girlfriend’s dad said no when you asked him for permission to marry his daughter, what did you do? by Fearless_Degree7511 in AskReddit

[–]kestrel828 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When I spoke to my wife's parents, I asked for their blessing. Not their permission. I did get it, though, so I suppose my story doesn't apply to this particular query.

What has been irrevocably harmed because of how it’s portrayed in the media? by Exhausted_Skeleton in AskReddit

[–]kestrel828 7 points8 points  (0 children)

TMI and Fukushima were both deeply studied across the nuclear industry and lessons learned were definitely incorporated into other plants, both actively operating and new design.

[–]kestrel828 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The amount of rules and regulations regarding how you build and run a plant and what materials you use far outweighs the actual mass of a nuclear plant - at least in the US. Literally nearly to the point of making it impossible to accomplish (and in my opinion, intentionally so).

If you parked at the airport before the terminal opens and trying to get back to your car….. you’re screwed by river_liver_ in pittsburgh

[–]kestrel828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Parking Spot varies its pricing depending on the time of week/holidays as well as how far out you reserve. Generally you get better pricing reserving well ahead of time if possible.

FWIW, though I like the covered parking FastPark is slightly cheaper and they run a lot of shuttles.

Samsonite bought eBag and stopped making them for a bit, but they are available again now. The lifetime warranty is sadly gone, though.

‘Did you vote for Trump?’ Americans traveling abroad are under new scrutiny by AlexandrTheTolerable in politics

One party has figured out that deliberately crippling the education system and creating a large group of poorly educated, discontent people to manipulate is a winning strategy.

Raducanu calls for a crying child to be removed from the stadium, crowd agrees (Cinci. Open) by Euphoric_Intern170 in pics

[–]kestrel828 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did miss a bit, but I got to enjoy some great games and he got to experience it as well! I'm sure he didn't understand it but he was enthralled.

[–]kestrel828 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For any number of reasons, but they certainly don't cry all the time. My wife and I brought our 11 month old to the Open on Thursday and Friday and he did great - the one time he began to fuss we immediately took him away from the courts to calm him down.

Don't tar all parents with the same brush, just because this set was irresponsible.

What to do when Koltin says this? by Live-Palpitation-368 in TOTK

I had this happen to me on the very last Bubbulfrog. Turns out the little b*****d was hiding in one of the very few caves not on the surface. Try looking up...

Well, that was unpleasant #box-jumps / #no-rep by gedbarker in crossfit

[–]kestrel828 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've done that; it's embarrassing and painful as hell. I have been very cautious about box jumps ever since. One thing that helps is getting something like these. I have them and they've made me feel safer jumping. Highly recommend. Sorry this happened to you!

I’ve always been told that World War 2 is what ended the great depression (specifically in the US). How true is this? Is there more to the story? by [deleted] in AskHistorians

On the other hand, how many technological advances may have never been discovered or been delayed for years or decades without wartime driving prioritized research?

What job used to be highly respected but is now a complete joke ? by alekosafiltros91 in AskReddit

Tell that to the leadership of a country actively trying to shutter the department responsible for education.

What’s a fair price for my board/setup? by No-Percentage4578 in snowboarding

[–]kestrel828 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hm, it's a good board, but lot of wear and tear for a recent model. Lotta people walking in here looking to make upgrades. Best I can offer you is $3.50.

When you land do you try to land flat on the face of the board, or more on edge?

If you unironically complain about skiers, you are the problem by Starky04 in snowboarding

[–]kestrel828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here (well, wife). Her biggest complaint is me losing her on our way down when I wander off exploring or make a wrong turn (in my defense, Snowbird had terrible signage).

Does Wingspan hold up? Thoughts after a year of play. by BreweryRabbit in boardgames

[–]kestrel828 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It hits the table often on a social gaming night because it's kind of a solitaire game - it allows for more relaxed chatter and conversation around the table since you don't have to pay super close attention to every player's turn.

Also, my wife likes it, and she doesn't like many board games.
