This is fake, no one can code like that
24·3 days agoAlso Pewdiepie mentioned the petition yesterday
12·6 days agoBecause Arch is at best comparable to sport fandom, at worst to religious cult. And fans/cultists do these kinds of things
There’re still older Civilizations I haven’t played so I’m not worried
431·18 days agoI initially saw that number on a Facebook post and when I checked the source [1] it also mentioned the 15 billion figure so I went with it. Looking at it closely, the author did some “creative” math to get that number
His total take home amounted to five times the earnings of the highest paid provincial governors over a similar period—enough to provide grain for the entire city of Rome for one year, or to pay all the ordinary soldiers of the Roman Army at the height of its imperial reach for a fifth of a year. By today’s standards that last figure, assuming the apt comparison is what it takes to pay the wages of the American armed forces for the same period, would cash out to about $15 billion
Good catch, I should read the sources better and don’t trust the Facebook (especially the Facebook)
And also how often the movie is completely oblivious to that. For example it’s been a while since I saw “Devil wears Prada” but if I remember right, the ending is:
Our main character has an argument with her boyfriend
Goes to a business trip in Paris
Sleeps with random guy
Returns home and makes up with her boyfriend
And the movie ends like nothing happened, she’s happy, that’s what’s important
What? I-I don’t understand what … what does … miss, can you open the door please?
medieval soap opera
This sounds accurate when I think about it, maybe I found out why I wasn’t interested. The thing is - I don’t mind medieval soap operas (to some degree), I really liked The White Queen, The White Princess and The Spanish Princess. But those are based on real characters in actual history, I can forgive them for being boring at times since history is sometimes a bit boring. But for me the selling point and the excitement comes from the fact that this actually happened (well … sort of). With GoT it felt like I’m watching one of those medieval soap operas but without the excitement of being based on the real thing
Jealousy. His boss could act like an asshole and don’t let him go fishing but he earned it! It’s so rare to find good boss
I second The princess bride but to add something new: (although not a movie but a serie)
The Game of Thrones
I love fantasy, I love medieval history, I love huge worlds, I love slow pace. But this one … just didn’t click, I don’t even know why. I gave up after the 4th episode
Pocket had a strange history for me. When it came out, I thought it was the best thing ever! But after some time I realised I actually don’t use it. I just saved pages to bookmarks
Yeah, I’m not from balkan but when my friend who works in Nederland told me that he voted (in Slovakia) for far right, anti-EU party … I kind of gave up, some people are just dumb
… for my tiiiime 🎵
Maybe it helps that Germans have a more relaxed relationship with nudity.
Yeah I guess that helps :) I’m pretty shy, I don’t want anyone besides my wife to see my ding-a-ling
No, I’m from Slovakia.
I don’t know, it just feels weird that everytime I want to leave the room I need to first put on clothes. Like going for bathroom or have a glass of water (providing I live in an appartment with other people). Or even in the morning it feels weird, I sleep in my pyjamas so I usually wake up, have a breakfast, a cofee and only then I dress up for work. But I’m not saying which way is better, it’s just weird to me.
And kids are a completely separate category where they can wake you up at any moment or you need to jump out of the bed to solve an emergency
People who say 20, I’m not judging you but I just can’t imagine that
- I grew up in small (tiny) appartment with my parrents and sharing room with my siblings
- Then on college living in a room with 2 other people
- Then renting an appartment with other people
- Then owning an appartment with my gf
- Then having kids
Besides that small window of having an appartment just for me and my gf, I just can’t imagine sleeping naked
The opposite, I always sleep with blanket on even if I don’t want to. In summer I fall asleep with blanket on my side and wake up fully covered in blanket. And sweating like a pig
