Yeah, in simulations of high sea rise, Florida is just about entirely wiped out, possibly nonexistent for all practical purposes. Though it also joins a few other states that get wiped out like New Jersey and Delaware. Unless the ocean rise is a flash flood I'm pretty certain that we will move to a different state. Look forward to South Carolina becoming new Florida. Well yeah, it's not going to be so fast that people can't get to safety. Something that catastrophic probably won't happen in our lifetime unless like, the entire Greenland icecap slides into the ocean or something.

BOTH parties are a facade for an elite class, also, try turning your first sentence into a slogan, that is the challenge the Dems have. Larry Kudlow, the chief economic advisor had a heart attack almost when the summit starts. I'm not religious or superstitious myself, but I could see someone who is superstitious or deeply religious interpreting that as a bad omen. To me, it's nothing other than an interesting coincidence. Hope Larry Kudlow is okay though.

Heh, the Democrats are so desperate for messaging help that they are looking to Hollywood: https://www.politico.com/story/2018/06/11/democratic-campaign-messaging-hollywood-637364 This paragraph just about sums up the whole problem: “One of the first things we were at least talking about in the beginning meetings was how to improve upon the message as to what does the Democratic Party stand for, what does that represent,” said Andrew Marcus, who owns the television and film company Apiary Entertainment. “When the Republican Party or [President Donald] Trump is able to say ‘Make America great again’ and nobody that I know can tell you what the DNC or any of the leading candidates’ slogans [are], I think that’s a marketing problem.” While I don't think Hollywood is neccesarily the best place to look for messaging that will attract Trump voters since Hollywood has this disconnect with conservatives, the TV/movie/music/entertainment industry is certainly useful as an idea factory.

??? edit: Referring to what Trump said?

No, I play fullscreen and get the problem too. It never happened before the 1.1 patch. -
Crash at quit
smjjames replied to rone's question in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Technical Support (Spoiler Warning!)
Happens every time I quit, using PC here as well and windows 8.1. Been happening since 1.1 was released. @everybody else: A thought, maybe we should mention the windows version and whether we play fullscreen or windowed. I play in fullscreen here. -
I know theres already a thread related to this, but that was pre-patch and the OP there never responded back about a savegame. This is after she left the team. Actually, she left after I did the second adra portal experiment mission (forget the name offhand, starts at the roof of temple of the seers) after I made an attempt to keep her in the team. Anyways, what happed is that when I went to the map view to decide what to do next, I noticed Maia and an icon on the map, went there and she was floating in the ocean. The save doesn't compress well, so, here's the file raw, also, I saved next to her: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ur4l7wqzxm45puy/Rama%20%28DeadfireArchipelago%29%20%28802572fe-b7ef-4593-9445-9ff1914a626e%29%20%28788781864%29.savegame?dl=0 There could be a link to the Maia farewell spam bug, https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/101018-maia-farewell-spam/?hl=%2Bmaia+%2Bmap , I can't prove the link myself, but since both bugs are appearing together for me, theres a chance that they're connected.

Theres a confirmed one around Proxima Centauri, the red dwarf. Anyways, the detection method mentioned relies somewhat on the planet passing between line of sight of the parent sun and Earth, so, if the systems aren't aligned that way, it's harder to detect them. There are methods to detect planets that don't rely on that though.

Just heard a couple min ago.

Huh? Not getting the reference here.

I thought that's what you were going for with the 'save money and airmiles' bit, but 'deporting' them to the churches funding missionaries going to those various countries does sound like a nice way to highlight the hypocrisy.
-
That certainly seems like a scheme far-left liberals (though I guess could be applicable to anywhere on the spectrum) would make up, heh, make the missionaries pay for transporting those individuals back to their home countries and have them fly on the same airplane that the missionaries are on. You're the first one that I know of that has thought up that idea though. edit: No, wait, stereotypical far left liberals would probably do the exact opposite of far right conservatives and deport as few as possible. *shrug*

About religion? I can imagine it coming up spontaneously on occasion.
