An open pit at an elevation of 1.5km still means the bottom of the pit could be 1km higher than the place the ore is processed at

Depends on the scale of “going down”. Many mines are in the mountains and the material has to be brought down to lower elevations. The mine entry may be lower than the nearest pass but still a lot higher than the destination of the ore.

“It looks like” Ah yes. The only fucking argument these “history” conspiracy types ever have. And it usually dont even “look like” the thing at all. Or only in one specific image from one specific angle

Yeah I was about to say. Aren’t children from families that suffered famines much more likely to have (and have children that have) digestive problems and food related deficensies?

Kinda looks like a mountain bike trail next to a forrest road

• Being offended by somebody “calling themselves straight” is stupid and fragile.

• Being “proud of being straight because somebody else is proud of being queer” is stupid and fragile.

• Being “content with being straight and wanting to label yourself as such in an environment where that makes sense” is reasonable.

I dont play the game so I dont know the context but I assume labeling yourself straight does not make sense in a fishing game and as such it is most likely about the second point

So its a meme based on racism saying you should not use desktop environments?

Can someone explain “remove DE kebab” to me? All google tells me is racist slang from Serbia …

Yeah he came in with an agenda (block all legislation that could hurt his luxury car daddies). And he achieved all if that. Now his job is done and he gets to retire early.

That is stupid from both of them.

Dont tell your boss you dont expect to be there long.

Dont expect your workers to want to be there long unless you offer good options to advance and educate themselves. Especially for a help desk job… that’s very often an entry job to get a foot into the IT door.

Great game, really nice visuals and nice (very trippy) soundtrack. I tried to be a “good” cult leader, trying to ressurect everybody that “died” (most got sacrificed before they could die of old age), but some people should stay dead. And mourning and sadness is just another reason to put everybody on shrooms again

It actually takes a few trillion years but its fine because we just stop considering the “failed” universes because they will be gone soon™ anyway.

Saw it as a teenager. Its edgy but I enjoyed watching it.

Until the prison/stigmata scene that completely broke the movies own rules. The whole fuking point is he goes back in time to change something and he is the only one who knows it. To everyone else that is just how the past has always been. But not in that scene! People actively see the world change due to him changing the past. (Oh and him mutilating himself as a kid changes nothing about his live except for the scars? He ends up in the same jailcell with the same cellmate 25 years later? Sure.) Even as a teenager i realised the gigantic plot hole.

With that scene its a 3/10 movie for me. But not because it is edgy.

Not sure that’s the reason but there is a Russian version of lord of the rings where sauron is the good guy fighting for the rights and freedoms of the working class orcs against the fashist rule if the elves and Gandalf.

There is also a light novel about Putin (or maybe Stalin?) being teleported to middle earth with a few guns/tanks and helps sauron win.

So yeah Russian propaganda sympathises with orcs

This could also be used the other way round. “The Germans can only build things they have stolen from somebody else”

“Evolutionary reason” does not necessarily mean that a feature is an advantage. Mutations are random and then positive or negative selective pressure act on them untill the mutation is either extinct or is adopted by the whole population. For features without selective pressure the same thing still happens it just takes longer and is basically random. So different populations of a species will always develop different features even when given the same environment.

So for most of the features you listed: yeah it just happened.

You didn’t read the article did you? Its not about the inclusion of a character, but about how a specific scene with that character is handled. The author claims it is completely jarring, doesn’t fit into the games setting and doesn’t even use the games existing lore for transgender people but instead uses modern terminology.

I found the article to very informative and not at all “gamergatey”.

Its points are:

• this is the scene
• it is bad
• here is exelent trans representation in a fantasy setting
• “its a BioWare self insert”
• this is how they could have handled it better
• the game is great, but now everybody will just talk about woke, so again the game is good

Enterprise does not mean it is owned by a corporation. Also I think Mozilla is a non profit but I might be wrong there.

Enterprise is about who the target user is. If it is designed to run on a single user desktop or whether its supposed to integrate into central management and authentication structures. Enterprise software is most of the time sold as part of a service agreement with the developer offering updates and support for special customer use cases.

Thunderbird is simply a universal mail client that can be used by anyone. Privately and in a corporate setting

The holy trinity, the father, the son and the holy spirit are the same entity.
