any cognitive Task. Not "9 out of the 10 you were able to think of right now".

The frustrating thing is: Sometimes the same economists who do these studies tend to magically forget their own findings a week later when they are interviewed by some news channel about what the government should do about x or y. Because they can't live with the fact that some of the base principles and beliefs of their own school of thought are deeply flawed.

If I could just download right from the Website

You can.

"The President is tired, see him to his chambers."

Certain groups (funded by dirty energy companies) have pushed an idea that nuclear isn't Safe

Nuclear isn't safe. You should still not pick mushrooms in parts of germany because it isn't. It's an inherently dangerous technology, which you can only try to mitigate.

Nuclear has been strategically handicapped though because they know it'd destroy their business if it's able to compete on a level playing field.

Nuclear can only work because it is heavily subsidized. If it had to compete on a level playing field, not a single plant would ever have been built in history, as they are uninsurable on the free market and no investor would touch them with a stick without huge government guarantees.

It's the most expensive form of power generation there is, and in 2024 with renewables as good as they are it is just plain unnecessary to sink resources into this dead end.

It's obviously child Jesus. It's not "Christ's child", it's "Christ (the) child".

I'm totally calling it "tote Tante" from now on.

Looking back as an adult the origin is clearly racist. But since I sung that in kindergarden myself: We didn't associate "black man" with a person of colour. When I was 4, I was imagining some creep in a black trenchcoat.

But then, my steam link could already do that.

I'm by no means talking about AAA latest and greatest. I tried Everspace 2 and Visions of Mana. Both need considerable tuning down, after which Everspace manages a fluid experience, while VoM still stutters while looking horrible. I haven't dared to even try the likes of Witcher 3 (which people are talking about playing on the deck). I'll probably stick with pixel art etc for TV mode, and go back to the ps5 for more demanding things.

You mean on the small screen, right?

People's use cases seem to be wildly different from mine. I mainly use it in TV mode as a couch gaming machine. For most modern 3d games you have to turn graphics quality down substantially that way.

Edit: A downvote does not constitute an answer or a counter argument.

I played Witcher 3 day one and have no idea what you're talking about.

but I'm back to feeling rather ambivalent about the whole thing, which to my eye looks like nothing so much as an alt-universe Mass Effect.

And that's supposed to be a bad thing?

More Mass Effect is always a win in my book.

My parents have witnessed not one but two nuclear catastrophes in their lifetime. Wtf are you talking about?

That must be why it's still advised to not collect and eat wild mushrooms in parts of southern Germany.

Also I didn't say they resembled bombs.

Until something goes wrong and it is not safe and controlled anymore. You know, because of the whole exponential chain reaction thing.

Ok Choom.

School of the Cat managed to successfully get to a point where 1/10 women survived. School of Crane is the later iteration of the School of Cat, which is why I mentioned them specifically.

Where is this info from? I could only find fan fiction so far.

As for why, it's because Ciri wants to be a proper Witcher like Geralt.

Too thin for a 70% death rate when you already have most of what it takes for other reasons.

As far as we know it has never been done on a woman or an adult. Also, she already has super powers. Why risk a procedure that only 3 in 10 young boys used to survive?
