My experience is this: In Austria they want to speak English. In Germany they want to speak German. On a Lufthansa flight it's 50/50 whether they ask me questions in English or German.

Really? They seem to pay decently if their advertised rates are true

Wait until you find some nerd using SAS.

My day job uses SAS but I've used Stata and SPSS pretty extensively. SPSS is the most black-boxy out of all of them, but it's also easiest to use. I see why it's so popular in behavioral science; the math-heavy types tend not to go into psychology and similar.

It's because education is sold as a way to get a job. Nobody communicates the value of being an educated person other than the salary one could potentially make.

If you haven't played it, Divinity Original Sin 2 is a fantastic Larian-made RPG that uses a non-D&D system.

I had one DM fight the absurd amounts of time combat took by instituting a minute rule: if you can't describe your entire planned actions in a minute, you forfeit your turn.

There were lots of common-sense exceptions, but in general combat felt more like actual combat, and the whole thing felt more like an action-oriented story than a football game (where more time is spent planning the action than executing the action)

Not a native speaker, so I could be wrong about this:

I've seen a construction using proper nouns (eg. Annas Haus) where an "s" indicates possession, but no apostrophe. This doesn't seem to apply to non-proper nouns (das Haus der Frau) and is different from normal genitive construction that adds an "s" to masc/neut noun genders (das Haus des Mannes)

To be fair, that's the argument that's most likely to resonate with a lot of Oklahoma voters

Pandemic was actually pretty good for most board game stores, as people needed something to do at home.
