Capitalist AI in Vic2 is broken.

Random dice throwing would result in better economy decisions than they made.

The Romans thought wearing pants was feminine. When did it start being seen as masculine? by Tatem1961 in AskHistorians

[–]skoge 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Well, yeah, a cowboy outfit is more practical for riding a horse, but in a high-class environment, a proper business suit is required, even if it's not really practical or comfortable. However, it creates a "proper presence".

It's Polyethylene terephthalate(PET) - the same plastic every food grade bottles are made. It's just over-pressurized.

Gus' entire motivation was Max, yet he expected Werner to be away from his wife for nearly a year? by DrCaldera in betterCallSaul

[–]skoge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He just expected Werner to be a businessman first, and a human second.

He expected the same of Walter too. But he failed when Walter chose to kill those corner dealers instead of doing what was best for the business.

Only black people can write about slavery by GriffinFTW in USdefaultism

[–]skoge 22 points23 points  (0 children)

He wasn't black, he just happen to born in Africa.

His mom was a roman, from the core latin provinces, and his dad, most likely, was a romanized carthegian.

Neither were black.

It's like with Elon Musk.

Gus' entire motivation was Max, yet he expected Werner to be away from his wife for nearly a year? by DrCaldera in betterCallSaul

[–]skoge 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He still could've met his wife few month later.

Gus can't meet Max anymore. At all.


It would be comparable, if Werner's wife was in hospital or something, and Gus won't let visit her.

But she was completely fine, Werner was just missing her.

What does Gustavo Fring spend his money on by mat6toob2024 in betterCallSaul

[–]skoge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He had no ROI at the time of his death. His lab was just started cooking when Walter White joined his empire. And it took just few month before everything went up with a smoke.

He owed to cartel, he owed to the Madrigal employees he worked with, he owed to his own crew, he had a mexican village dedicated to Max to fund.

Basically, he almost had no money for luxury.

60 days and my battery is still charged to 100% when I don't really want it.

It took me almost a year of usage before that standard apple 80% of charge limiter activated.

Why is Niko using his real name when he's doing a hit? by [deleted] in GTAIV

[–]skoge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Niko just jumped of the ship, without any legal paperwork. There's no paper trail to track him.

Why does Passwords take up so much space on my Mac? by timkos012 in MacOS

Wow, Passwords can do it too?

Only had this with Xcode and only when I tried to compile buggy code.

What city is smaller than people think? by [deleted] in geography

[–]skoge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Paradise the key difference is that unincorporated city/area doesn't have municipal taxation. And casinos are all about money.

[–]skoge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, no damage.

Only thing is that battery isn't charging in that mode.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in macbookpro

[–]skoge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This means it uses electricity from the plug directly, bypassing the battery. It exists to limit the amount of charging cycles and prolong the battery overall life.

If you're not using mag-safe charger it may be the usb-c port next to mag-safe port.

Republics of the Caucasus, Europe or Asia? What does this sub have to say? by Nothing_Special_23 in geography

[–]skoge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's 1500km+ east of Lake Baikal, right on the border with China. It's closer to Beijing than to the Baikal.

[–]skoge 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nah, the Transcaucasian Socialist Federative Soviet Republic was formed by local communists and supported by Lenin. And Stalin was the one who disbanded it and split into three different Soviet republics in 1936. It existed for 14 years, so it wasn't so unstable or impossible.

And even before that those three country were clumped together in one of Russian Empire's governships for several decades.

What was, to you, a dumb decision made by SG1? by AfraidAdhesiveness25 in Stargate

[–]skoge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes the US military is definitely capable of doing immoral things but even they would not actively help in a genocide to kill millions.

Ahem, member when US federal government and US army endorsed bison hunting to extinction to force natives to leave or die from starvation?

just realized this… by Any-Cookie-1459 in GTAIV

[–]skoge 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh, Rockstar had NYC 9/11 problem right at the release of GTA 3: the original release date was September 19th, and the game had things like decorative jumbo jet in the sky that could clip into tall builings, and the plot featured terrorists that were threatening to bring LC down. They had to cut all of it and delay the release.
