It was definitely legit in the sense of it being something completely counterable by my friend had she been looking out for it, and it certanly wasn’t an exploit. It did still feel dirty to make use of information that she hadn’t noticed to get her to defeat herself, particularly since it only worked by me carefully not saying anything about it for as long as it took to do
I worked out the Monopoly strategy of buying houses aggressively and refusing to upgrade to hotels
In Civ VI, I let my friend conquer a city from me because that put her civ over into having a majority of its cities following my religion, which won me the game
Surely for such a common character it would be easier to make a new keyboard layout that always types the preferred apostrophe when that key is pressed?
I’m having the same issue, unfortunately
Maybe we can make a new post with the exact same link. “Mildly infuriating: this mildly infuriating article presents a login page to other users for no apparent reason”
Maybe Chile? They’ve got a tropical island and the mainland goes from desert to Antarctic
If a website is redirecting to prevent you using the back button, you can usually right click the back button to jump back several steps at once
I agree wholeheartedly, but I think you’ve misread the post
The Cartographer’s Guild. Although I have never actually posted there. I just stop by when I’m trying to draw a better map for my D&D games
Board Game Geek is cool, and Metal Archives is useful when I want to check that an interesting black metal band is not, in fact, a pack of nazis
To be fair if there was any piece of mundane home technology that people have a good reason not to trust withouot thinking about any of it much, printers are probably top of the list
yeah but they have the inside line against it going into the next corner
As a fellow can’t-visualise-anything-ist, it’s possible to work around it! You just have to memorise a bunch of individual elements of the thing in question, elements that are individually simple enough to be remembered as descriptions. So like a horse’s head is a sphere with a tapered cylinder on the front, the cylinder being about two thirds of the radius of the sphere narrowing to half the radius. Ish.
…or, like, use a reference. Drawing things from memory is not a skill I have suffered from lacking in my life
Honestly I think I did okay here for having drawn on a phone https://i.postimg.cc/DfPp3DvS/Screenshot-20240812-084704.jpg

10,000 BCE is just the approximate beginning of agriculture too, anatomically modern humans have been around for hundreds of thousands of years. Even the predecessors to those anatomically modern humans were pretty damn human-looking
When I was in high school, each department had a bunch of shared laptops that could be usedfor occasional lessons. They all had touchpads, but the school did also provide mice. They also had USB ports on the back. So of course you try to slyly plug your mouse into the laptop of whoever is sitting opposite you and just nudge their cursor astray every so often
The people of the country Georgia call their country Sakartvelo, equivalent to “Kartvelia” in English. If the US state ever somehow becomes independent I guess we have a fallback for the country
The whole region around Georgia is strangely full of names that modern English speakers associate with other regions. Way back in the late antiquity period there were kingdoms of Iberia and Albania there, neither of which had anything to do with the places we call Iberia or Albania today
They have since passed a bill annexing those areas, plus more, and even in the official “justification” for the war Russia clearly expects to be able to decide Ukraine’s foreign policy
If we’re going to introduce a different way to write the voiced dental fricative, dh is the obvious sensible choice
