So stupid tarifs(Are there any other kind)

There are some that work in order to protect national interests, mainly local producers and services. Whether they are stupid or not depends on implementation and end results

I don't have a fight in this race

Very true, but I suspect most people would rather double down on their beliefs, much like this comic:

I suppose this is the more common outcome as they will have a considerable pool of friends/family/colleagues that can reinforce their faith and are likely to also feel personally offended

why do people react so strongly when a book dares to reinterpret sacred ideas?

For a lot of people, their religion is part of them, so to make fun of it is to make fun of them.

For others, mainly the leaders, it's an affront to their power. "How dare someone make fun of the tools I use to control people"?

I can imagine it in a situation where we effectively go back to the stone age, with little to no trade between the small (<50) communities

That's just typical brazilian interest rates

That murder-hobo part. I never really understood the expression.

It stems from the typical RPG dungeon-raiding parties since the times of Dungeons and Dragons. You have a group of homeless people (hobos), traveling from place to place, killing (murder) almost everything that crosses their path in order to collect treasure.

You do have to capture a dragon in Whiterun before you get to Valhallarim, I think you ride him towards the whatever it was temple before ascending to the next plane of existence

AFAIR, the dragonborn DLC got you fighting the OG dragonborn in a place that really looked like a daedric quest, with one of the dungeons being green/black slime and books or something like that

The majority of jobs simply don't allow any sort of WFH: if it involves creating or transforming something, people have to be physically manning the tools. Healthcare can't be WFH, education sucks when it's fully online.

Smaller communities are great for peace and quiet, but terrible when you need anything they don't have (or don't have in decent quality), like jobs, transportation, healthcare and education. If you happen to be "socially weird", you have to adapt and "unweird" yourself

I've been messing around with a press mold so I can make hex tiles using paper mache, or something else that is easily and cheaply available.

The problem I've been having is with the sides, which rarely get properly pressed. What should I do to possibly fix this, regarding the model?

Right now, I've only experimented with minced paper and water, which led to satisfying results. What other things could I add or try for this kind of press? What could I apply on the mold to make the paper less likely to stick? Vaseline doesn't make a difference.

 
 

We don't have an Ask Historians yet, so I think this is the best place to ask at the moment

 

I've been thinking of self hosting a mastodon (gotosocial, more specifically) + a matrix server on an old computer I have, but sometimes I might need to turn it off for 2 days or more (not to mention some energy or internet outages that might happen here)

I suppose with the mastodon part the server will properly sync and download whatever's been missing, but I'm not entirely sure that'll be the case with matrix. If anyone sent me a DM on there while my server was down, would it get through after it was back up?

 

PL continua com seu golpismo e sua defesa descarada de mentiras, falsidades e spam em conluio com as grandes empresas de informática pra garantir poder e dominação da população.

Sempre usam essa ladainha de "liberdade de expressão" pra defenderem o uso de bots e outras táticas do gabinete do ódio, dizem ser a favor de "liberdade total de expressão", mas adoraria ver eles tentando defender isso com alguém perguntando "Então os senhores são a favor de postagens pró pedofilia? Pró aborto? São a favor de golpes cibernéticos?"

 

For instance, when your team misses a super close shot at scoring, or when you lose a super tense game match by a hair.

 
 

funny part about "Kamala campaign can't target men" is that they can't target men because they refuse to employ the crass humor needed to effectively target the kind of men they currently fail to target. They know what they have to do, they simply aren't strong enough to do it.

They lost because they won't say slurs. People are not ready for this conversation.

Hadn't thought of this before, but it makes sense. Men just won't take you seriously if you're offended by or scared of words.

Straight from one of the shittier parts of the fediverse.
