I'm curious, my GPU is busted and if I play a game for too long I get a crash, this depends on the load on the GPU. Civ6 I crash in like 30 minutes, Civ5 I usually get 2-3 hours, with Civ3 I tested it and left if running for a full 24 hours and it never crashed. So does Civ3 actually touch...

Its prescient that the beginning of the end of the Roman Republic can be traced to a politician whipping up an angry mob to attack and kill a rival politician (Lucius Opimius and the Gracchi Brothers).

How many of those people are one major medical emergency away from bankruptcy and ruin? When we talk of income inequality and economic pressures it goes beyond blanket numbers like the "poverty line", it deals with the perils and pressures of living in an ostentatiously rich society that fails...

Whats producing fascism is the insane income inequality and needlessly burdensome stresses of living in a backwater ******** like the US. Typically in this kind of scenario the uneducated and/or previously bigoted people trend towards strongmen and fascism while the educated trend towards...

If anything else comes of this insurrection it makes a great case for DC Statehood that way they can control their own National Guard without needing to jump through layers of approval.

I mean I miss Web 1.0 as much as any other person who was online in the 90s but revoking 230 isn't the way to go. Breaking up these companies is the way to go. Revoking 230 hurts everyone, it would hurt this forum and every forum.

Here is how this works for a non-military coup, coup-wanter whips up a big public event for his supporters to gather en masse. He sets their sights on a target, the legislature or opposing leadership are the popular targets. The mob, now whipped into a frenzy approaches the target and swamps it...

Also known as a failed coup. I'm going to keep using that word and/or insurrection because the seriousness of the events and their implication demands it.

It was an attempted coup, let's not try and normalize this. If the congressmen had not been able to evacuate in time they would have been taken hostage or killed.

McConnell doesn't technically need to go along with it, he could just have his caucus refuse to show up. As long as there are 51 senators present (50 with the current 99 members) for a quorum they can vote to remove and they'd only need 2/3rds of all members currently present. So if there are...

So I'm having this issue where every few turns my game will hard lock my PC to a tan screen after which I need to reboot the PC to fix. Checked integrity of files, all good, only mod is YNaEMP, game is on a TSL Earth with 21 civs. Happens in both DX11 and DX12. Drivers are up to date. Specs...
