it’s considered common knowledge that you can’t
I've never heard that before. What I have heard several times is that text is not static, so if you read something, look away, and then read it again, it'll say something different. That I can corroborate, along with the idea that this is how you realize you're in a dream and induce lucid dreaming.
As does Steam and Epic and every other digital store ever created.
Replaying old games that I have fond memories of. We're in an incredible renaissance of classic games getting source ports or updates that bring them up to modern standards, and I'm loving it. Daggerfall, Blade of Darkness, Jagged Alliance 2, Morrowind, Jedi Knight, Caesar 3... I'm sure I'm forgetting ~~some~~ many. They let me forget the present and pretend that I'm back in simpler, happier times, at least for a little while.
That's less of a peaceful reform and more of a war crime.
Worse, we're throwing piles of money at them.
If the vast majority of the universe is inhospitable, doesn’t that make it more miraculous and unexplainable that earth is?
No, because the Earth being habitable doesn't violate any laws of physics. It's just rare.
They did. This is only the oldest, innermost fortification in the city. AFAIK additional layers of walls were build around it later.
It's _/‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾\_ shaped. It's not freestanding walls, the whole thing is an earthen mound with a flat top and its sides lined with bricks.
In defensive terms, no, not really. They had to build it like this because these aren't really walls per se, it's just brick lining on the outside of an earthen mound, and mounds are, well, mound-shaped. https://gomadnomad.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Bukharas-Ark-Palace.jpg
Reddit would implode instantly with only 2K moderators. According to this Reddit post, six years ago there were almost 75K moderators working in subreddits with more than 500 subscribers (i.e. this number only includes moderators who actually have to do some work because their subs are decently active). That number is certain to have grown since then.
If that were the case, every other computer peripheral manufacturer would use a similar design or face similar warranty claim issues. Which they don't. So nah, that ain't it, chief.
