A decent amount of green, there's like a one or two day window where it's possible to peel them normally without the peel snapping, but where there's still a little bit of the underripe sourness to them

I mean, theres the question of what exactly renounce means. Cause like, its a no brainer to do so to save lives, but does it just mean declaring yourself as no longer following that philosophy, or actually believing internally in something different? The former is easy, the latter might not be possible to do on a whim even if you wanted to without something to convince you of something contradictory to your mind's satisfaction

EDIT: oh I see, thats the lever in the top guys hand. I didnt recognize it with where it was positioned, and so somehow I thought that it was like an object on a string that was somehow supposed to make the guy represent ones philosophical views, like maybe something being waved to signal surrender to the driver or some symbolism about weights

That just describes that doing some thing, the "stupid games", merely causes some negative effect, the "stupid prizes", not that the person playing those games deserves the results of their actions. To put it another way, if they deserve them, then if hypothetically speaking the person plays the stupid games but for some reason the stupid prizes never result, then there is something morally wrong with that situation and the world would be better had things gone as expected. If they dont deserve them, then the person playing the stupid games just got lucky that time and thered be no benefit to trying to force the negative result that didnt happen to occur after all.

No hope to avoid/treat what exactly? Like I get the joke is that the image is strange and implied to be strange enough to imply some kind of untreatable mental issue, but I cant figure out what issue thats supposed to be implied to be.

Why? Its basically tautological that using shitty things will lead to shitty outcomes, we wouldn't call them shitty in the first place otherwise, but what's the mechanism by which this causes the users of those shitty things to deserve that outcome?

More likely, someone not convinced of the conspiracy theory generates it, maybe as a grifter thing to manipulate the conspiracy theorists or just for views, and then the moon deniers find it, think that its stuff NASA actually released, and then point out the obvious signs of it being fake to confirm their worldview.

Can it really be called a Carnivorse when it's victim is a plant?

For the second category: dragonfruit looks amazing, but tastes like you took sugar-water for a hummingbird and solidified it. Basically no flavor apart from mild sweetness, unless I got a dud or something

I suppose it would technically be marginally more efficient in allowing someone to wash all their clothes instead of the set they were wearing waiting till the next trip.

They're smaller than your "normal" red foxes, have exaggerated looking facial features with giant mostly black looking eyes with a bit of a slanted look to them but smaller looking noses, and come from a warmer, more barren climate that better resembles a place like mars than the stereotypical habitat of the red fox does, at least on a surface level.

"flora editor reconstruction" its called. Havent yet tested if these will appear in the wild or not. If they do Im gonna make so many plants lol.

It's possible for platforms under the influence of the Chinese government and right wing American billionaires to both have harmful censorship.

Well, I've been losing sleep and having anxiety attacks over the possibility that he might worm his way back into office again, so no sympathy

I know this seems like two unrelated questions, so let me explain why I would like to do one of these two things: I recently got a drawing pen tablet with a display, which works fine, except that I am left handed, and my wrist keeps hitting the side buttons. The driver allows me to flip the pen inputs, but not the actual display, it just works as a regular monitor in that regard and relies on the windows settings (windows 11 in my case).

Now, I can flip it if I set it to extend my main monitor, however, I would like to be able to see what I am doing on either monitor, so I would prefer it to mirror my main monitor, just rotated 180 degrees. Some googling suggests that windows does not allow you to do this, except for a glitch involving changing the settings to extend and then back to duplicate, which I cannot manage to achieve. Does anyone know any workaround, or some extra software or such, that would allow me to do this?

Alternatively, if this cannot be done by any means, I would rather not use the extend function as is as I also often play games where moving the mouse to the edge of the screen moves the map around, and so would rather my mouse stay at an edge when reached instead of moving to the next monitor, ideally with some sort of hotkey to toggle what monitor the mouse is on. Is there a way I might achieve something like this?

EDIT: turns out this was all unnecessary, because the tablet itself has an option to do this rotation, its just in a part of the on-board display settings I didnt see before, isnt accessible from the driver UI that Ive seen, and wasnt mentioned on the tutorials that I found on the manufacturer's site that suggested windows had be used to control that rotation. Thanks anyways to everyone that tried to help me while I spent hours searching for a workaround needlessly.

All the spines and frills are supposed to be for sensing vibrations to help it not need eyes. Supposedly a herbivore, but not really since I just kept both cells mouths all the way through. Kept some cell movement as well, never realized before that the flagella makes a neat rat-like tail in creature stage if you make it large.

Specifically the type of printer that prints using spools of plastic filament, but that seems like the most common type anyway

The ironic thing is, conflating any and all criticism of the state of Israel with anti-semitism could be argued as anti-semitic itself, because to suggest that jewish people in general and the Israeli state/military are one in the same such that criticism of the later is also hateful towards the former, is also to suggest that jewish people as a whole are responsible for the actions of Israel.

As cultural groups as a whole are inherently unable to be guilty of crimes (since even if a large number of people belonging to one commit some crime, such a group will also contain members that cannot be guilty of it, like young children), but states and similar entities, being organized and capable of decision-making, can be, then any attempt to link the moral culpability of a state and that of a cultural group is inherently to apply unfair accusations to that group, and thus hateful to it.

Like, I just was thinking about how lots of pet species will just eat as much food as you give them to the point of making themselves sick, and keeping them at a healthy weight requires not giving them access to too much food. Obviously some humans have problems with this, but imagine how bad things would be if everyone were basically psychologically incapable of not eating food when we had access to it even when we'd had enough, given our dramatically higher access to food due to agriculture.

They literally took the gold provinces- all the gold provinces that have generated in south america this run as far as I can find, and nothing else. Kinda looks like open wounds or something else gross with that combination of map colors.

Name isnt anything too creative, its just called the "Slowboat Hauler", but it isnt supposed to be anything too fancy, just the space-fairing version of a bulk cargo freighter, designed by a species that at the time would have thought ftl travel impossible, needing its ships to take the slow way round. The big disk up front is supposed to be a shield to take the impacts of space dust and gas at extreme velocities.

This little iron refinery probably isnt much to look at for experienced players, but Im pretty proud of it. has 2 miners on a pair of pure iron deposits behind the structure feeding into the 8 smelters inside, divided into 2 different output locations because the best conveyors I currently have can only handle half it's output. There is a small amount of clipping, but nothing super cheaty looking (the mergers that clip through the outside wall dont use the side that clips through, so I like to imagine the exterior bits of them as looking like some sort of ventilation ducts or something.
