When we switch to DST, we "Fall Back. ". We set the clocks one hour back, at 2:00am Sunday, so basically we get an extra hour of sleep just on that night. Then we lose one when we set the clocks forward in the spring.

To be fair, I don't think that extra hour, once in the Fall, is used as a reason for Daylight Savings in any debates.

So, just sword and sandal Sims? Jesus, it sounds so plausible now.

My fear is that they will fix the chalice dungeon exploit. I'm perfectly willing to admit I am not good enough to beat it without that.

A "major" hasn't hit Tampa in over 100 years. (Major being 3 or higher.) Since landfall was Sarasota, I don't know if this counts to break the streak, but it's definitely the worst wind and rain in decades for Tampa and St. Pete. I'm very glad the storm surge didn't also set records

FWIW, a 20% drop is borderline catastrophic for a major company. The squeeze it puts on their supply chain, ability to make payroll, and interest rates on borrowing going up, it could be enough to create a death spiral. I think ubisoft is probably managed well enough to deal with this, but this is definitely a serious situation for them.

A BTU (British thermal unit) is the energy required to raise 1lb of water 1 degree Fahrenheit...which may actually be even dumber, since it's temperature sensitive to begin with. Dumbest of all, the Brits don't use that unit very often. The US, and, I assume, Liberia use it all the time.

So did he order the hammock? Is that what I'm supposed to get out of this?

I'm not sure if you're arguing that it being fictional is an interpretation or that its demise from the ire of the Gods is an interpretation.

If it's the former, you are incorrect. The single best primary source being his own protege and student Aristotle who also makes it clear the whole thing is didactic invention. (There are debates that some individual events within the story are inspired by actual events in Egypt and Athens, but its existence is never presented as fact. The entire idea that this was some historical account came mostly from a judge writing his own history books in the 19th century.)

This is also not debatable due to translation. It's Plato. The best scholars of all time in both language and history have studied this, literally for centuries. There is not any serious or scholarly debate about his intentions with this story. And multiple, equally capable translations of Aristotle corroborate that.

If you're talking about the destruction of Atlantis, it's been too long for me to argue that specifically, but the idea that it was divine punishment is the prevailing view of that story.

Plato did not suggest ancient Atlantis existed. He was very clear that he was illustrating a hypothetical "great society" to discuss his views on effective and beneficent government.

When he discussed it sinking it was a divine punishment from the gods of Olympus because they had strayed from a righteous path. All of it is meant to be a parable.

By your logic the president can only be arrested if the morality police and religious hardliners disagree. 🤔

I have tried many times to do exactly what you said, and I still am not getting the option to add a custom search engine.

Any advice you have is appreciated.
