The catarrhine who invented a perpetual motion machine, by dreaming at night and devouring its own dreams through the day.
Brazil is a Bad Idea®.
There’s a bunch of them actually:
The second one is up to 1.4 but comments in the Steam page report it working for 1.5 too. You can either edit the version manually or use something like No Version Warning alongside it.
I’m not sure how they interact with Path Avoid, I never tried them together, it might be worth a try though.
I’d gladly post Batatinha’s pics if he was my dog, but my cousin would probably get annoyed, it’s a privacy matter.
But, basically: picture a huge dog. By “huge” I mean, he probably weights 40kg or so. Mostly black, with some tan; it doesn’t follow the same pattern as the Rottweiler or the German shepherd, it’s different. Short hair, floppy ears. Rather intimidating, I wouldn’t go anywhere close to that dog without my uncle or my cousin nearby.
I spend most of my day reading, as a translator. But it’s almost always stuff that I wouldn’t read, if not being paid to.
If counting only books that I read for fun, I guess it’s ~2 books/month? Typically fantasy light novels. I also read a fair bit of manga (~5 chapters/day).
Beyond those LNs I think that the last book I’ve read was in September; Um Copo de Cólera (lit. “a glass of rage”), from Raduan Nassar. Short but good first person story.
I’m almost 40. I’m… tired. I don’t read stuff to feel myself cultured; I read stuff when I need to (because of my job) or when I feel in the mood to do so.
My relatives do it all the time. On purpose. Cue to
Guess who’s the toy poodle and who’s the shepweiler.
Federation woes?
Your comment has a different take though, and adding value to the discussion, it isn’t just the same as I said. Both are complementary.
Mid-December I’m travelling to Foz, to eat my quota of chipa and pira caldo see the Iguazú Falls again. With my family this time. It has been, like, 15 years since I’ve been there, and unlike last time I’m not going with a drunk womanchild rushing to Argentina because she was missing her grandparents. I’m not smuggling whisky again either.
No worries! This sort of stuff happens. (Blame Godzilla!)
Plus you added a lot of info to the discussion.
I think that it depends on why, how, and how much. If she’s feeling neglected and/or isolated I wouldn’t say that it’s a red flag, but if she wants your exclusive attention, to the expense of your son, it might be.
the word ambrosia does remind me a lot of amber though.
It’s coincidental - the word “amber” backtracks to Middle Persian 'nbl (anbal) getting borrowed into Arabic as عَنْبَر (ʕanbar), then finding its Mediaeval Latin as ambar, then Middle French as ambre, then English. Initially it referred only to ambergris (the whale stuff, aka “grey amber”), but eventually people started using the word to refer to the resinous tree substance (“yellow amber”) too.
Ah, ambrosia…
I ate a lot of that. But it didn’t make me immortal, it made me fat. (I’m joking of course - the dish above is named after the Greek myth OP talks about.)
Serious now: I think that the myth refers to both honey and mead, without making a distinction between both. I’m saying this because:
EDIT: about nectar. Both ἀμβροσῐ́ᾱ→ambrosia and νέκτᾰρ→nectar ultimately mean the same thing: “not dying”, “immortal” (check the links for etymological info). As such I think that both names initially referred to the same thing, and only evolved into two different mythological food items later on.
Even more accurately: it’s bullshit.
“Lie” implies that the person knows the truth and is deliberately saying something that conflicts with it. However the sort of people who spread misinfo doesn’t really care about what’s true or false, they only care about what further reinforces their claims or not.
Vanilla Rimworld pathfinding is bullshit. It gets even worse during fights, as pawns will move unnecessarily too close to the enemy, and get wrecked as a result. Or they shortcut through the freezer.
For DF-like path priorities, there’s Path Avoid.
Reddit might have originated as a link aggregator but for all intents and purposes it’s a clusterfuck of forums anyway.
That said the difference between Reddit and old style forums in this case is that the permaban is never enforced; that place is so corrupt that you’re expected to circumvent the rules and the punishment. A hypothetical 5y ban would be the same.
I’m aware of vinegar pickles (I’ve eaten and prepared both), but those would be even worse for booze production.
Pickles, sauerkraut, and similar are fermented through bacteria, that produce lactic acid. For alcohol you’d need yeast instead. As such, I don’t think that you can use pickles to make alcohol.
Not to my knowledge. However, there are plenty references to bees in the whole mythology.
For example, the priestesses of Demeter (Olympian goddess of the soil, crops and food) were typically called μελισσαι melissai “honeybees”; and Persephone (goddess of the spring and underworld; Demeter’s daughter) got quite a few honey-related epithets, such as Μελινδια Melindia and Μελινοια Melinoia (both with μελι meli “honey”).
