Those two dev diaries don’t describe the totality of development.

CKII was released in 2012. 15 expansions were released in the following 6 years. Expect the same for this.

I think we should consider environmental impact fines for speeding on top of the speed limit violation itself.  I also think we should force construction companies to give drivers compensation for increased fuel use and increased commute times; that is an interesting externality that is not paid by either construction companies or municipalities which have approved the construction.

But the drivers are paying the construction companies through taxes to do the construction work, and I’m pretty certain that they’ll pass any cost of compensation on to their clients ‘cause there ain’t no private company in the world that’s going to absorb a cost they can pass on to their clients.

I’ll plus one attending meetings now.

Sometimes a little hassle now is better than dealing with a shitstorm later, even if it’s due to other people being crap.

Well, you also know you’re going from a full game with all the bells and whistles to what will likely be an empty shell used as a framework to get you to pay more money later.

Paradox make generally good games, but you know you’re going to pay for it.

I don’t really know how to give an abstract image of the suits of cards - or whatever image photobucket has replaced it with ‘cause lol at paying for the right to have it clean - a beard.

T’be fair, the water back then was presumably heavily watered down, the wine was to make the water safe to drink.

I changed my shift on Friday to start at 5.30am instead of 8am. Maybe I’ll arrive early enough to find a parking space.

Like, I'm not sure people throwing their hat in the ring with no intention of winning simply because their rich enough to do so is a good thing.

Trump did it, and now we have a war-criminal-forgiving, Nazi-sympathizing, racist misogynist in the White House who is more than willing to abuse that position for their own personal gain. What’s not to like?

Ahhhh don't. This reminds me of someone I used to work with who was very religious, but didn't seem to understand that going out to get wasted and have sex with a lady person every weekend, just for the numbers, was rather against his religion, and that pains me.

He was a silly man.

Sometimes they just pester their mark until the mark gives up in an effort to make them go away.

Donald Trump has no money to go the self-funding route.

Once we go through a few primaries the field will narrow.

I’m foreign and thus inherently dangerous, so I have to have my ID, specifically my green card, on me at all times, else it’s a misdemeanor immediately.

The amusing thing about it though, as per someone I used to work with who went to the police academy, is that local, county, and state police can’t ask me to prove my immigration status ‘cause it’s illegal.

I’m white though, so I guess it’s less of a problem for me, anyway.

There are far too many points of failure in any kind of electronic voting system, including the ones already extant.

At least with a paper ballot, if your vote doesn't get counted it's because you fucked up more than anything else.
