They're in my head, little precious treasures.

She's terrible. Her science video are not as good as most others, and she has an extremely negative view of scientists and academia. That's infringing on anti-science propaganda. Which is a weapon of fascism.

The erosion of faith in science comes mainly from two things : the stealing of its benefits from big companies (through secrecy, obfuscation and patents, and the commercial use only of science and technology), and conservative propaganda.

The propaganda itself goes in two ways : the absence of vulgarisation, and the denial of scientific facts and doubting scientist objectivity.

There are problems in sciences and academia, but they are very far from being ore problematic than the political structure around it and the political propaganda.

I don't ask my machine to do something. It doesn't have feelings. I keep civilités for humans.

Not only give Russia everything they want, but also give the rest to the USA. It's like the partition of Poland.

I am not using any tactic. Democrats are. AND YOU NEED TO STOP PRETENDING LEFTISTS VOTED FOR Trump!

Democrats gave a no win scenario to the leftists in order to try to catch some republicans. They thought leftists would vote for them only to save the country from fascism.

But what did the Democrats do to save the country from fascism? Absolutely nothing. In fact, Democrats went into supporting fascism!

There is no lesser evil, only two brand of evil that lead to exactly the same thing. That's not accelerationism, the only accelerationists are the Democrats here.

Democrats had the power. Democrats were in charge. And they failed miserably. Yet you liberals are still blaming the left because you're fucking children who can't take responsibility for you failures.

BTW I'm not a US citizen. But don't worry, liberals of the western world are absolutely all the same, exactly like you. Ruining the world, bringing fascism into it, and blaming the left for all their failures while they cooperate with the fascist.

When will you understand that leftists are tired of voting for the lesser evil? Lesser evil is still evil. You may not be aware of it, but the situation was already disastrous for many people. Now is your turn too because you ignored those people suffering for so long.

Regarding Gaza you're an idiot. The situation is the same with Biden or Trump. Biden did nothing against Israel, and he would have done nothing more.

Trump is the doom of the USA. The whole world will be destabilised because of it. And all of this is because the Democrats didn't care to even try to give anything to the left, considering their vote for granted.

The failure is the Democrats one only. The sooner you realize it, the sooner you'll fix it. Or you'll side with the fascists like liberals so often do.

Hey look! The liberals are still blaming the left! What compromises were you doing in order to win the leftists votes btw? Maybe that is the question you should ask yourself.

So that is engineering. Is this character an engineer with knowledge of magic, physics and mechanics?

It's fine and easy for a player to think in term of game mechanics. But the actual process is not so goofy. And the character is not the player. The dice decide after that.

That is irrelevant and wrong. In history art has been used much more than gold to save money. It's still very much used btw. Gold was used for exchanges, not for savings. And yet painting burn and are stolen. But I'm sure you'll tell me how dumb all those kings and nobles were.

While this is somewhat true, in all of the west there are only 3 groups currently : liberals, fascists and leftists.

Liberals are a diverse group, ranging from socio-democrat and liberal green parties to libertarian who leans on fascism.

Fascists are all the brands of conservatives who leverage racism, authoritarianism and nationalism.

Leftists are basically the groups opposed to both fascism and liberalism.

Those are 3 objective groups. They are the groups that determine how likely they will cooperate or oppose each other, or how elections will turn.

Some parties will be a bit in between, but that's merely political communication. In practice a group that promote itself as a middle group is actually leaning right. This means that "leftist liberals" (who range from some green parties and movements to the socio-democrats) will always pick liberals if they must choose between them and the left. Likewise, conservatives and libertariens are leaning toward fascism when given the choice.

The political spectrum is radicalised and triparted. You can deny this model and blur the information, but it usually means that you are leaning more to the right than you are pretending.

I'm not sure everything you're saying here is right. I live in France, and we face the same economic problems, but still, bread for example is not chemical garbage, and its price is reasonable. But that is also because its price is controlled.

The relative value of different things moved over time. And the relative value of things is also relative to the minimum wage.

What you're doing here is to convert to another reference currency in order to make comparisons over time. But over time the price of different things moved.

Relative to the minimum wage, household increased immensely. Much more than absolutely anything else. Food increased recently only. Relatively, consumer electronic is now extremely cheap for example.

That is a weird evolution in fact: most things went up in price, but new things went very cheap. It's like the whole society turned its effort in producing electronics for cheap at the expense of everything else.

And of course the rich got much richer. A good part of the increase in consumer goods went indeed in increasing the wealth of the wealthiest.

Productivity is also a factor, lying in the middle of this. But productivity didn't apply to everything equally. Productivity in consumer electronics rose incredibly. Productivity in food production also. But the production of consumable food went down in quality, and not much in price. Because companies extracted all the increase in productivity and then more.

Household construction went down dramatically. My hypothesis is that it became a middle class investment at some point, so the wealthy abandonned it. Without investment, construction didn't increase enough to follow the trend of the society. Rarity also bred profits, which could solidify the strategy of rarefying housing so it becomes more profitable.

To sum up, the work you did with gold could be done with other goods and better reflect the reality people are living. Housing, food, transports, healthcare. Those are much more important and much more accurate to reflect the impoverishment of the population.

Summer patch huge changes! (forum.paradoxplaza.com)
submitted 2 years ago by bouh to c/aow4
 

Open beta for the summer patch has opened. There is a huge patch note ; still work in progress, so things can change, like the casting point limit is being changed already.

The big features are research rework, underground rework, magic victory rework, summon and spellcasting changes, and loads of balance changes (especially archers nerf).

What do you think about it?
