Yes, this is clear enough in the long run. But the question is: will the transition happen fast enough to prevent a climate change catastrophe?

I was thinking about how to alleviate your issue partially. What if instead of going through the entire library of scrolls every time, the book would draw a “hand” of say 5 scrolls that you’d use up and then it would shuffle and draw 5 more? If the book told you which 5 scrolls were in the hand then you’d have the ability to plan what to do with them. For example, having retribution and rage and lullaby in your hand would be a very powerful combo to use against the Dwarf King. Much better than ID and remove curse (especially if you don’t have anything left to ID).

The issue with fighting climate change is that it’s a game of chicken between all the countries. If the UK goes all out and eliminates all emissions (at the cost of some portion of its economy) but every other country stays the course, then climate change just carries on and the UK’s sacrifice is in vain.

Similarly, if every other country in the world buckles down and stops climate change but the UK carries on, the UK ends up ahead. This means there is a double disincentive to cooperate on climate change.

Canada is going through this issue right now. The Liberal government has gone forward with carbon taxes and now these policies have become deeply unpopular. The Liberal party is now staring down the barrel of a potentially historic defeat in the upcoming election next year.

I actually prefer to watch without captions. The lack of speaking, peaceful sounds of nature, and sounds of the work he’s doing all combine for a very relaxing watch.

Plus I also enjoy trying to figure out what he’s doing without having it explained to me.

Have you tried a warden golden lotus run? That one, to me, is the most game breaking thing you can do on 0 challenges. The ability to freeze time and afflict enemies with every single seed debuff without them being able to do anything is monstrously OP.

Plus the fact that the golden lotus makes all your seeds last forever gives you effectively infinite seeds.

With my idea you could just put all the ID and remove curse scrolls into the book and then get a much higher chance of drawing them. You wouldn’t like that?

Isn’t that an indictment of the current design?

Yeah I agree. I think the game in general is really good about giving you access to the right information you need to make decisions. Footwear of nature, for example, always show you what seed they currently have stored.

They’re probably working for the government. China has had “white monkey jobs” for a long time. They’ve also followed the Russian playbook of paid internet trolls. These influencers are just a combination of the both.

Oh okay that makes sense. I hope we see a story about some tool like that buying a shitty $100k Trump watch and getting their comeuppance. This is definitely someone who would complain about gas prices because there’s no way they could afford a watch like that without feeling hardship.

In my mind, the $100k watch sterotype fits more with one of those pimped out Hummers than a $70k pickup truck.

I doubt those guys complain about fuel prices either.

Granddaughter was the first one to get blocked!

The founders knew what they were doing. This was their way of cashing out some of the company while continuing to run it. All of the private equity tricks are designed to avoid paying taxes in the process.

$100k watches? I have seen many instances of the pickup truck driving stereotype but I’ve never seen any of them wearing any sort of watch, let alone an expensive one. Is this specific to some country?

A trillion bucks, but not in cash; in shares of those companies. Try to sell it all for cash and you tank the share price. People lose their jobs, pension funds that own shares in those companies lose value.

That’s the trouble with taxing wealth. It’s not liquid like income. All that net worth is tied up in the companies and not easily accessed.

I thought this was some kind of new, futuristic house design.

Congrats! I’m really surprised you didn’t use darts! Once I discovered how good they are I can’t imagine ever not using them!

This is great. Just a few simple lines evoke so much raw power from those boosters. I can hear the overwhelming roar! Love it!

That’s just a coincidence. 吗, meaning “what?”, is pronounced má which has the ascending tone. This is not true of all questions in Chinese. For example: 谁在你的右边 meaning “who is on your right?” does not end with 吗, and 边 is pronounced bian which has the flat tone.

800 hectares is 1976 acres. That’s a huge property. What sort of maintenance would you be doing? Farming? That’s almost 5 times the size of an average farm in the US. You’re talking about a large commercial farming operation, not an “off-grid lifestyle” property.
