Is that the infamous Violet?

The Levant.

Wait, are we not roleplaying powerful countries?

Explore. Build. Minigames with friends.

It’s a sandbox game and they’ve been adding content for 10 years.

8k hours in Minecraft, 1.4k hours in City Skylines, about 1.2k of those in one city. 😂

Is the monarch required to be sacrificed or put in harms was every so often?

That would kinda mimic the Aztec Festival of Toxcatl, where an impersonator of the god Tezcatlipoca was sacrificed every year after being treated like a god for the year. The god-man was usually selected from royal families. He had religous function and was provided for in specific ways (eg a harem) but he wasn’t a monarch.

So a monarch that can’t appoint their own heir really isn’t much of a monarch. The point of being a monarch is not being beholden to any rules.

This is just an oligarchy with rules that don’t benefit 3/4th of the participants–which is as odd as it sounds.

After all, the point of 4-5 year terms in modern democracies is that you don’t have to wait your whole life to take over.

It’s an interesting concept, but coming to this arangement–and maintaining it in perpetuity–must have been an extremely extrordinary set of circumstances.

It’s a big ask, but Empathy.

Watermelon Man by Herbie Hancock

You’ve undoubtedly heard it before in samples, at least.

If I ever settle down, I want to set up a backyard greenhouse w/ aquaponics. Using arduino to automate everything is the dream.

I have a 43" (108cm) computer monitor. It’s on my computer desk, which my couch faces. I really don’t know what you are asking.

Subway in the 90s was kinda awesome. It was fast and wasn’t a burger place and it had the old brown and yellow subway wallpaper everywhere.

Then they kept expanding locations and the meat and cheese slicers disappeared.

Then they ran $5 footlong.

Then they kept running $5 footlong.

And kept running it. And the quality kept dropping and dropping so they could keep the price peg.

Now, it’s disgusting and costs way too much.

You couldn’t pay me to eat subway, now.

That makes a lot more sense. Thank you.

1. The growth of online advertising revenue slowed in 2022 for the first time since 2009.It still grew, just slower.

2. Interest rates went up.

3. With the collapse of crypto and Silicon Valley Bank (which was overleveraged in crypto), VC money isn’t as free flowing. There really wasn’t that much institutional money in crypto, but it’s still a destablizing force and has had a ripple effect.

4. AI is making more people aware of bots. This is related to point #1. A huge, unknown percentage of of FAANG revenue is selling online ads to bots instead of real eyeballs and once the word gets out, ad revenue will slow even more for any service depending on online ads (eg reddit).

We’ve finally found something truly worthy of staying in the British Museum.

I mean, I think the best move was to require users to buy a private API access key subscription. But requiring Apollo or Sync users to buy an API key from reddit probably violates Play Store and Apple Store terms of service and would just get the Apps banned.

So po-Tay-to, po-TAh-to…
