What would be the sequence of events that follows from it?

The title says it all. I just want to use vertical tabs, and it is kind of annoying that the tabs are on the left. From UI perspective, it feels weird because every website including Reddit and YouTube organize your content tabs on the left as well. Having two columns of tabs on the left feels weird. If I move the chrome tabs to the right at least, it might feel better.

I was playing Eleanor for the first time in apocalypse + secret societies modes because I wanted to flip cities in deity level. The idea was with Voidsingers to promote and use soothsayers + Great Bath to incur a massive amount of faith to catch up on science, culture, and gold, and use cultists to loyalty pressure cities. Well, I didn't know soothsayer generates lots of CO2 to push the climate phase to the last phase, and I didn't know comet strikes were going to rain randomly on in the last climate phase. The first comet strike I got hit right in my capital obliterated all of my infrastructure (Great Bath as well), leaving me with nothing around it. Well that's it.

I swear, the academic LARPing on this site is getting completely out of hand. Lots of people here claiming to run big-budget labs sound like corporate middle managers who spent five minutes reading a Wikipedia page about universities.

I saw this guy who kept insisting he was an active academic running an NSF grant and chairing PhD thesis defenses. But when I asked how he's chairing a defense if he left the school, he pulled out this insane hand-wave. Suddenly he has a zero-pay "academic affiliation" at a different R1 that magically lets him do high-value consulting, keep his old grant where it is, and run committees.

Then he completely gave himself away. He tried to explain why his old department was struggling, and he said over a quarter of the department left, including "the entire senior leadership."

Nobody in academia talks like that. We have Department Chairs, Deans, and tenured faculty, not a corporate executive suite. When he got called out for using middle-management speak, he completely lost it. He dropped a massive wall of text claiming that student reps and staff form a "junior leadership tier" reporting to "senior leadership," and then said "get back to work, kid."

Imagine inventing a whole imaginary corporate structure for a university department just because you got caught using corporate buzzwords. If someone on Reddit describes their department like a sales division and throws a tantrum when you ask basic administrative questions, save your breath. The LARP is insane.

I was incoherent, didn't say things I meant to say, and yeah...

I finally jumped into civ 6 after years of playing civ 5. I’m only about 60 turns into my first game on Emperor difficulty (with no special modes) and… it honestly feels super familiar, almost like a big expansion to civ 5 rather than a full sequel.

The core loop is basically the same: settle, expand, tech up, build wonders, manage happiness (now amenities). The combat feels very similar, the tech/civic trees are laid out in a way that’s easy to understand if you came from 5, and the victory conditions are close enough.

That said, I can already tell there are some big additions such as districts which is a little overwhelming at first, and I keep forgetting about loyalty and governors. Natural wonders are now classified into passible and impassible. The UI is prettier but also busier.

Is this a common feeling for people who came from civ 5? Does it start feeling more “different” once you get deeper into the game or try higher difficulties? Also, do you get bored towards the end in civ 6 just like civ 5 where list of chores you have to do to manage your cities keep increasing as you progress further into later eras?

Anyway, if there are big tips or mechanics I should pay attention to early on so I don’t screw myself over later, I would like to know.

Increasing the NVDA dividend from $0.01 to $0.25, Jensen Huang increased his annual income from $9 mil to $220 mil. He owns about 900 million shares of NVDA.

South Korean prosecutors have reportedly requested an arrest warrant for Kim Se-ui, the head of the controversial YouTube channel Garo Sero Institute (가세연), over broadcasts involving actor Kim Soo-hyun and the late actress Kim Sae-ron. According to the article, prosecutors are investigating allegations including defamation and illegal distribution of explicit or private images after the channel aired photos and personal messages related to the alleged past relationship between the two actors. The case has become a major controversy in Korea because it raises questions about privacy, sensationalist YouTube journalism, and how far online personalities can go when exposing celebrity scandals for views and public attention.
