Qin or Qing? Because those two dynasties are separated by about 2000 years. For reference, this is the guy depicted and he was a legalist of the state of Qin. He’s a pretty interesting dude, with the foundational work for Chinese legalism being attributed (at least in part) to him.

Also he was executed by being torn into pieces, which is pretty metal.

I mean, there’s an infrastructure problem that’s worth considering. With low enough population density, it could become no longer feasible or worth it to maintain large-scale, country/globe spanning infrastructure projects such as power grids or undersea fiber optic networks. This infrastructure didn’t matter much a few thousand years ago, but it’s pretty critical now, so the same rules don’t necessarily apply.

I don’t know how likely I consider this outcome to actually be, as you’d need a very steep decline, but it’s at least worth keeping in mind.

As a Linux user (btw) let me tell you, if anyone is masochistic it’s us. The amount of times I’ve gotten sidetracked for an hour fixing a problem that would be a non-issue on Windows is kind of depressing when assessed as a whole

Honestly I don’t give a fuck if I get nuked, but only so long as it lands directly on me. At that point it is definitively not my problem anymore lmao

A king’s ransom

I’ll just keep running up the hours so as to improve your relative health, dw king.

~4000 across several accounts.

I am deeply unwell

Still New England though, fwiw

Obviously. The point the person was making was to say that even if we buy into the bullshit narrative that this was consensual, it still doesn’t make sense. They didn’t use incorrect terms to skirt around it, they were making a specific point about their claims.

Ukraine’s constitution forbids an election during a state of emergency. This isn’t him overriding precedent, this is codified into law.

Nightmare blunt rotation

Brother it’s really not that deep. It’s not like I’m casting a moral judgement, I’m just voicing a pet peeve of mine lol

So valid. I’m just screaming into the void, don’t mind me.

I know it’s nitpicking, and I apologize, but this is a pet peeve of mine. Grammatically, it’s either ‘what I look like’ or ‘how I look’ but it’s never ‘how I look like’.

At risk of misreading, I think they might be parodying the usual IDF line. The ‘runs into shrapnel’ bit is a little over the top.

Good to know! I’ll have to go back to it. I was really enjoying it, but I just had some annoying bugs that turned me off.

I haven’t played it in a couple months, but I remember the quality and polish taking a serious nose dive as you got deeper into the game. Is that still the case?

Pupils went the wrong way

Yeah that’s a perverse incentive if I’ve ever heard one

Pardon?
