Then you don't get the spin you need but whatever is compatible with the thing you are orbiting.

Yes but once you start spinning you want to keep spinning, and that kinda fucks with turning in any direction because of the angulam momentum.

It doesn't spin, otherwise the laser becomes... pointless.

10 * i^2 is -10.

They are clearly not wings meant to create aerodinamic lift.

Civilization is also an obvious answer that I'm not seeing mentioned. I feel like it's more manageable than Stellaris, especially older versions (I tend to play IV or V).

It's the same setup and he just sat down instead of using the standup "mode"?

As nonsensical as it is, giving the limit of the suspension of believe necessary to keep the world reasonably coherent, the wizard world has a solid grasp on the non-magical world while it's a given (literally a given, it makes no sense otherwise) that the people from the normal world have no idea magic exists, other than what is leaked and relegated to fairy tales (it's our world).

Wizards, their institution and governments, their own citizen are aware of what weapons are. Harry himself of course knows what a gun is and could potentially grab a number of them to prepare for war.

So it's an implied obvious implicit answer that even a limited mastery of magic vastly overpowers weapons. Which is obvious if you consider that in the magical world they are aware of the "laws" of physics AND the extra laws of magic.

They just know more about how the world works, how to inflict death and how to protect against harm.

I'm avoiding Amazon for many years now. To be fair I usually just... Don't buy things?

But when I have to, I try to go local shop first, second hand websites/markets, other websites and eventually Amazon, I guess? It never came to this.

I have spent 10/20% more than the price on Amazon though.

Last but not least, for niece stuff I have used Amazon as a sort of catalogue to find out what exists and then look for things further by other means.

He promises quick personal gain at the expense of others. If I was selfish and above the poverty line I'd probably vote for him so that my tiny portfolio raises a couple of points more in the next 4 years.

Probably yes.

graphics have never been a priority for Bethesda games either

Oblivion even had a documentary about it's design. They never moved past that in a way though.

Also, English didn't even exist back then.

Initially a lot more, because of the shock and the will to ba back to my world, among humans, living the life I've been living my whole life. I wouldn't want to die alone in what looks like an unexplainable minecraft world.

I may, eventually, reason that for such a thing to happen bigger forces must be at play, so I may just willingly try some form of suicide out of curiosity, so in such a state I would be a lot less scared.

As I mentioned below, I feel like the expansion is less inspired and makes for an overall decline in quality.

That's a libertarian stance. It has a long and strong tradition and it's generally vilified on Lemmy because, in short, it's a stance that plays right into the hands of glorifying the status quo. Of course it can theoretically applied in certain context and not in others, but overall is... idealist and unconcerned with practical struggles: The enry in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy.

A bunch of practical issues close to my heart are the following. What goes on state television? What gets taught in school? What does the country do with taxes? Are taxes even meant to be a thing? Who represents the weak?

So, the argument me and others are making is, framing something that's not a choice as a choice to leverage the need for more freedom is the kind of thing that leads to the freedom for your child to be taught the kind of history you think is proper, and that's usually bad because people are dumb.

I don't want to spoil anything but I feel like it makes the experience less dense and focused. I loved the original one, read great things about the expansion and found it leaving a bad taste in my mouth.

But in a way I guess you can't get the cat back in the box or something... Still a great game overall, I feel it just goes from a 10 to an 8.5.

Chill, you just murdered his whole (traditional) family!

That's not really my take, nor yours is being brought up by you here for the first time in the history of political science.

Like I said, of course I see the appeal of that stance, and it may be, especially while pressed by very real active oppression of these day and age, a great leap forward for society, but, ultimately, such a government is not the expression of a dynamic society that shape a just society, it's an impersonal government that doesn't care about what's going on.
