Their lore is based on info from Morrowind itself, from TES 1: Arena, and from The Pocket Guide to the Empire, a booklet that shipped with the previous title Elder Scrolls Travels: Redguard. Previous titles such as Redguard, Shadowkey, and Battlespire are considered canonical information in their universe. Oblivion/Skyrim/ESO are not. On top of that foundation, they have their own original lore.
None of it seems to have been "functional conversations with everyone else", but instead you asking questions after "ideological biases" were brought up and then dismissing all the answers as irrelevant because they are not clearing any of your "practical" bars.

That was at least my impression, and I fully admit that I may have gotten it wrong (I have no skin in this game, I am just portraying what your "conversations" looked like from the sidelines).
That's not impossible, though; just inconvenient.

Assuming rationality or optimal play is not good way to think of real world actions. You only need three things for something like this to happen.

1. One side thinks[1] that it will hurt the other side more than it does to itself.

2. Politically it can handle/sell the cost of such an action.

3. There is a leader who is ready to execute it as his agenda.

I had the same reaction. Those articles don’t back up that claim one bit. And I cant make sense of the timings of the events described in those articles either and how that would line up with a supposed lab leak of delta.

Some of the other points made in this article were mildly compelling to me (though I don’t know enough on this topic to be able to poke holes) but that delta claim and lack of convincing data to back it up doesn’t help with credibility.

Even people who know the difference might prefer to buy cheap factory farmed meat, might not have freezer space to hold 30 pounds of meat until they can use it, or $250 to tie up in what amounts to personal beef futures.

The coop meat you linked is pretty competitively priced and I’m sure it’s good. Even with that, it’s more expensive and for some people, price really matters.
Someone mentioned that Holmes will likely get a relatively light sentence because she is an attractive white woman.

I've read there is good evidence that black people get harsher sentences than white people and men get harsher sentences than women, other factors being equal. I suspect there is also evidence attractive people get lighter sentences than ugly people.

The current system seems like a clear-cut violation of the US constitution's Equal Protection clause. So why doesn't an organisation like the ACLU take legal action to force all sentencing to be done by a judge who is unaware of the race, sex and attractiveness of the defendant?

Tarkovsky may perhaps be the pioneer of slow cinema that consisted of long shots observing subjects like a thousand-yard stare. In Nostalghia (spelled in the Russian transliteration), the final scene consists of a man carrying a candle for 10 minutes. While detractors may be appealed by the hostile nature of slow cinema, their champions like Bela Tarr, Theo Angelopoulos, and contemporary ones like Bi Gan and Apichatpong Weerasethakul embrace long shots for their ability to convey the atmosphere of bleakness. Bela Tarr even made an 8-hour film called Santantango, which Susan Sontag praised as a film she would watch every year.

Tarkovsky was not appreciated in Soviet Russia, where distribution depended upon the whims of the censors. When censors criticized not his politics (his films were apolitical) but the lengthy content, he would respond that his films were intended for viewing by "Bresson, Bergman, and Dreyer" (in which order I forget). His films would be given minimal circulation and screened briefly at venues, like in worker's pubs for a week. He would even fight the bureaucrats until he had it with the forced cancellation of The First Day, which thereafter he burned all remaining film and set. (The project purportedly commented on the state's official atheism that were at odds with his deep Russian Orthodox Christianity.) After he defected, he collaborated with his favorite Bergman actors and crews until he died of cancer, possibly caused by exposure to harmful substances during the filming of The Stalker.

In Japan, Akira Kurosawa championed Tarkovsky and promoted his works. Today, there is almost always a screening of Tarkovsky in an arthouse cinema every year. While the content of his films eluded me on first viewing, I now observe the silences ripe with meaning. His films transcend time, imparting an experience that lasts briefly and eternally. There is nothing more exciting in film than his characters staring lengthily into the abyss of the human condition.

Accidents of policy do happen, but would you agree that it is suspicious that 4 food packing companies are making massive profits on such a 40-year-old accident and no one has thought to just fix it yet?

Based on what one of the engineers of edison were saying, if they could acquire more than a "drop of blood" for analysis, they would have been able to get more accurate results.

You might be able to consider that a pivot, since she had been saying "drop of blood" the whole time.

It was Holmes' unwavering attitude to imitate Steve Jobs that got in the way of her decisions, and I think more than a pivot of product, that a pivot away from this ideology could have saved Theranos. Willingness to give up on perfect design in order to acquire a working engineered product could have made a world of a difference.

Refer to Wickard v Filburn. Whether a transaction leaves the state doesn't mean dick to interstate commerce clause. The interstate commerce is interpreted to mean basically any possession/production/consumption of goods regardless if they leave the state or even enter commerce. Supreme court decided even growing crops for use on animals on your own land is interstate commerce.

This is the reason why you can catch a federal charge for growing your own pot or making your own machine gun, despite it never leaving your property nor any desire or act to enter commerce/trade. Even merely _where_ you store your goods for personal non-commercial use in your own state is considered interstate commerce, a la Gun-Free School Zone Act.

The author did not claim that Delta's origin was a lab leak. Just that there was one isolated case of it. And so it stands to reason, other lab leaks may also be occurring.

Conflicts on trying to appear politically neutral for PR pieces while 1) they are not (because research funding sources, public relationships etc), 2) it is not possible, so better off avoiding certain topics all together.

If you think Tamriel Rebuilt is cool, check out Project Tamriel. They are creating Cyrodiil and Skyrim in Morrowind, but without the giant letdown that was the bad lore and worldbuilding featured in TES 4 and 5.

Here's a video of their WIP heightmap for all of Tamriel:

Keep in mind, this is at Morrowind's scale. The Cyrodiil you see there is roughly four times the size of the Cyrodiil featured in Oblivion. All that extra space + no deadlines means a lot more settlements and regions. Check out their planning maps.

Not GP. Can't imagine why they wouldn't. Once you're past the construction phase -- coop, containment, predator defense -- they're fairly low effort. Provide food and water, clean the coop regularly, and pay enough attention to them to quickly notice if your birds start getting sick.

“Canceling” means removal of support and denouncement of a public figure, justified or not. In Bill Cosby’s case, it was absolutely justified, as he himself admitted to his wrongdoings. What issue do you have with that term being used to describe what happened?
He's just incredibly confused because central banks officials avoid saying the word "money printing" or "creating money" so that the public doesn't panic or accuse them of creating something out of nothing. Instead they use technical words like "Quantitative Easing" and "Asset Purchases" and then dumbasses like him buy into the wordplay whole heartedly.

No. It's one thing to say "My company is going to change the world" or "I am the best president of all time". It's different to repeatedly make a claim that is verifiably untrue, like "I have perfected cold fusion" or "I have a cure for all forms of cancer". The average startup founder doesn't do this, no sane person does this.

> "The saddest thing of it all to me is that she was onto something, people are having success with her ideas today."

This is a very poorly informed statement. Who bought the valuable IP that Theranos spent hundreds of millions of dollars developing? No one is "having success with her ideas" because the ideas didn't exist. That's why she's going to prison

> There's no abstraction to flee to here. You can't reasonably argue that it's "new to American law".

What does that mean though? If you want to claim that copyright is a moral right, saying that it was invented early on in American history isn't a good enough argument to justify that. Lots of things were invented early on in American history that are not moral rights, they're just useful policies.

The US Constitution includes language like:

> [Senators and Representatives] shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.

No one would seriously claim that this means the Constitution is arguing that people have an inherent right not to be prosecuted while they're at a government job. It's a practical policy we put in place for practical reasons that should be examined through that lens.

And copyright is the same. The fact that the US Government reserves for itself the right to regulate commerce/sharing around ideas/inventions does not confer any moral right to any individual to have a monopoly over ideas. It merely gives Congress the right to establish that monopoly as it sees fit.

There are many different philosophies of justice. Personally, I find "restorative justice" the most compelling, especially when tempered with the practicality of "preventive justice". But there is also "rehabilitative justice", along with "retributive justice" which is closest to revenge and thus will never lack for popular appeal.

Licensing isn't the thing that prevents big budget productions from happening. If they wanted to make a bunch of big budget Marvel movies in 1992, nothing was stopping them. They'd have just paid for the rights back then, the same as they do now.

What copyright expiration would get you that you don't have now is tons and tons and tons of fan fiction and small budget productions. A few of which would have been good and most of which would have been both terrible and ignored. Like every school play being Shakespeare, but now it's Spider Man.

And heretical crossovers. Deadpool vs. the Joker and things like that.

But Tangled, Frozen, Little Mermaid, Alice in Wonderland, Beauty and the Beast, all the Peter Pan movies, they're based on public domain stories and they're still making major films out of them on a regular basis. The Snow Queen is one public domain fairy tale, Frozen is three movies.

You're wrong. I work with teens. They all use both. For different reasons.
