Some of the world is improving. Some has been regressing. The last 30 years weren’t a very stable time, and even the accounts of what is happening is not reliable. Not acknowledging that has been incredibly harmful for everybody.
Anyway, yes, improve your life and the society around you. It’s what you can do.
In Civilization, if you take a city from some player and offer peace, they almost always agree.
Are you saying international diplomacy isn’t like a 90s video game?
I imagine the flat-earthers wouldn’t accept that shape as “flat”.
Thanks, but I think I’ll pass that one.
My 2-months grocery runs take about 45 minutes, excluding the line, but I imagine it’s a larger run than yours. Outside of that, I never reach 10 minutes looking for things.
My wife used to make lists, but they were never useful.
How many more of these stories need to come out before us around the rest of the world stop treating the United States like a democracy?
What do you mean by “treating like a democracy”? What countries have you seen treating the US in high regards recently? Or, what do you want to change?
Being able to know things was good though. I hope scientific articles last a while longer.

Parenthesis in particular are completely ambiguous. But asterisks and square brackets also create problems.
Shouldn’t it be The Quest for More Money?
I remember that’s the title we were promised.
Good, now invent a keyword for variables you don’t want to declare the type. And now that you have a mix of keywords and identifiers on the same place, you can never update your language again.
Also, make the function declarations not use a keyword too, so you get the full C-style madness of code that changes meaning depending on what libraries you import.
Even older variants required both a let to declare the variable and a dim to set its size.
I remember a REDIM command, but I really can’t remember what basic it’s from.
If you are hired to sit at meetings, not adding value to them is indeed a very severe issue.
To translate the sibling, the third one is where it would tell you how dangerous the substance is for you. But it’s keeping its secrets.
It’s a visual representation of the current layoff epidemic. There’s no hidden message.
Well, we are still not in a nuclear war.
And anyway, the way mankind gets over it is the largest deus ex machina ever created in sci-fi. So, don’t count on it either.
Well, that’s a first. The usual way is for Windows to break the Linux install every time it does anything.
And now interplanetary percussive maintenance is a thing too.
Hum… I’d put good odds in they getting some now.
