My biggest complaint with how the Gowron character was written was his final battle with Worf. He fought honorably with a Bat’leth. From everything we’ve seen about Gowron earlier in his presentation, he should have fought dirty, and with knives.

Sounds like a .worlder problem
If you believe this conflict is about religion, you are a gullible idiot. The conflict is a colonial one; the same sort of genocidal displacement we saw in North America only on the age of smartphones.
If everyone on both sides became Atheists, the Israelis would still be butchering the Palestinians and the Palestinians would still be fighting for their freedom.
Speaking as a Socialist, no, lmao.
First off, UBI’s are not Socialism. In fact, they are antithetical to Socialism. They are Social Democracy, which is objectively the moderate wing of Fascism, the standard borne by those who think we can make a better society by instituting ranked-choice voting, net neutrality, and a 32-hour workweek without ever looking past the symptoms into the actual problems inherent in the system.
Under Socialism, the vast, vast majority of science will be done (as it is/was, in the USSR and China) by government or government-funded research organizations, where materials are supplied to them and their research is guided by the public interest.
Cranks doing “science” in their garages and basements in their spare time will still just be cranks.
The bowling ball also pulls the earth towards itself. This amount is imperceptibly small but still there
I think the issue is that games are games; an example that springs to mind is Caves of Qud’s Markov-chain generated books. I don’t mind them, but once I realized what they were, I stopped reading them. Unless it’s written by a developer, it doesn’t matter. They might as well be empty, unopenable items, like books from Dwarf Fortress where they get a description of what is inside but not any text from the passage.
Even random dialogue is interesting in games not only to “immerse” the player, but to receive messages and information from the developers; if they are randomly generated, they have no purpose. The game would only be improved by their absence.
It does make sense, it just has slightly abbreviated grammar - in the traditional style of a newspaper headline.
While “Biden is going to lose the election” is “proper” grammar, abbreviating it to “Biden to lose election” is also completely valid, within certain contexts (such as a headline).
Science is Yellow.
They’re allowed to complain, but that doesn’t make them correct. I don’t believe it to be wrong, because to a large extent people have a right to know public figures - they lack a right to privacy and must fight for every bit they want.
If I, say, found a coworker’s cringy Reddit account and shared it with other coworkers in a mean-spirited way, that would be rude and a transgression of privacy. If I found out that my state Senator, or my favorite YouTuber, had a private Reddit account and shared it, that would be okay (or even good, an act of transparency).
And there are of course levels to everything. Take the YouTuber example. We would obviously consider it more appropriate to share if the Reddit account showed they were bigoted or fraudulent somehow; or if it was boring and not notable. Less so if it contained highly vulnerable, personal stories, or (and pardon me if this is a bush you were beating around in your post) nude photos or videos.
Unrefined Uranium is unradioactive enough that just licking it probably wouldn’t do lasting damage
Political affiliation is not a protected class, nor should it be.
Someone please think of the rights of the landowners!
Simply dangle several vertical road segments by a rope. It’s the strongest, most efficient design
I spent too long looking over this picture for little hidden details the artist might have added before realizing there is like a 90% chance it’s AI generated and there are no little hidden details
Right except the “semi-” bit.
Stalin is definitely not “Arguably as bad as Hitler”. The only major WWII leaders who were actually “Arguably as bad as Hitler” were Mussolini, Hirohito, Churchill, and Truman.
You’re right, the millions of Nazis and Trotskyites killed by Stalin probably would not agree that he had a positive impact on humanity. Thankfully I am neither a Nazi nor a Trotskyite. Which are you?
Stalin was not perfect; for instance, he stopped at Berlin. But he also defeated Hitler and built the Soviet Union into an industrial superpower.

Don’t worry, you’re still serving an important role in the economy!
As part of the “reserve army of labor”, by your very existence you drive down the wages of other workers in your field, based on the threat that they could be replaced with you.
