To the helicopter crash where the leaders of the latest nuclear power died.

Re: War, what is it good for?
The all time high seems to be due to the helicopter crash. The other cases seem relatively insignificant too.

Re: Wind Chill in Winter restricts my Ability to Properly Ride my Dashing Ducati Supersport late at Night
On first read I thought that you wanted better thermal insulation. What you want is a wind chill index. Something like
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Table_of_Wind_Chill_Index_Values.png
except the highest temperature in that chart is 0 °C, and the highest velocity is 70 km/h.

I think your best shot at seeing improvement would be telling manufacturers; it should be in their interests.

It probably didn't work like that in the books. The school would have been buried in sundry items pulled by the spell.

Re: Can't start a game against bots
The site has received unexpectedly many requests recently, so some limits were put in place.

Re: Site Loading Incredibly Slow
I wonder if anyone has a grudge against the site or has some reason to want to cause trouble.. hmmm.. I think Hong Kong is controlled by China now, and a DDoS attack could be a crude attempt to censor the site by blocking requests. Of course I'm just guessing, and there's a very narrow possibility ...

Re: Death Star vs 4 Borg Cubes
A battle between them would resemble a fight between a Spanish Galleon and a a modern oil tanker whose only weapon is the ability to ram. After the first amusing hour the following weeks would get pretty damned tedious. Oil tankers can't take much punishment, so the galleon would likely win in spit...

Re: Can no longer use [url] tag in the forum
I'm not sure when this change happened, but as someone who has been having to ban hammer these spammers I'm pretty supportive of it. The problem with the URL tags is that you can disguise a link as something else - hide it in a punctuation mark for example - and that's always what they do. Wouldn't...

Re: Can no longer use [url] tag in the forum
I assume this was done to prevent bots spamming links? That is my understanding... what little understanding I am able to bring to the table. A lot of things were done to combat the bot invasions. I regret this 'loss,' too. It doesn't even stop them from spamming urls. For example: https://www.webd...

Re: Jesus was a Socialist
Why wouldn't God have also kept the Germans who became Nazis on track if he has this power? What a terrible thing it would be for God to save only "his own" from the fate of becoming genocidal murders - what did the ones who became Nazis do to deserve this punishment? Why weren't all Germans "his o...

Re: Jesus was a Socialist
I truly believe that if all of those people in my world were in a situation like the German citizens in World War 2, a large majority of them would have fallen prey to the same propaganda and participated in or turned a blind eye to the same atrocities that the German citizens did at the time. I th...

What do you think it means to put God in all aspects of your life? What does it mean to you that "he shall direct thy paths"?
