whats good is that the most populous countries all have their own soda ash supply chain, so each country can independently prop up the industry without major reliance to others. helps promote competion for prices globally.

its why I dont like calling it scifi to people on suggesting it, because it kind of spoilers the premice on the idea how humanity got to that position in the first place. Its better advertised as fantasy mystery, than scifi.

back when Shin Sekai Yori aired, the yaoi jumpscare of Episode 8 caused a lot of people to drop the (very good) sci fi anime.

On and off conflict between the two countries for a while now. From what i know:

the land in dispute is Khmer land built an entire millenia ago under Suryavarman.

Thailand claims the lands were there due to drawn maps during 1904 french colonia indochina times. Cambodia claims the International Court of Justice lines in 1962, as about a decade ago, france pulled out of the region, and thailand moved in to occupy it.

to quickly summarize a lot, Thailand eventually obliged and ceded the temples to Cambodia. Cambodia went through the civil war. Thailand goes through a military coup, and expels a bunch of refugees into the region.

fast foward to 2008, globally wanted to turn the temples to a world heritage site. map draws borders around the site without giving posesion to a country, Thailand renegades on the plan but Cambodia continues.

Since 2008, there have been conflicts from both sides, and nations globally are trying not to exacerbate the issue.

AMD probably had considered it, but the chiplet technology did not scale the way AMD wanted to with RDNA3, and introduced problems at launch. ot likely would have missed the mark vs the 4090, had problems and lacked the necessary features to make it a compelling product to sell.

you have to have a personality that people like, and thats the non negotiable part. the rest is work ethic. other than that, do not go into the field expecting to make money playing games, unless you live in a place with a low cost of living and you happen to collect bounties on difficult challenges which no one should be doing for a living.

I only would have liked to get her because im mecha foward, but its clear that Sandrone, if made playable, would fit that role better.

Similar to Emilie though, shes bait because the better options will probably be in the 6.X patches for lunar based reactions. (not that Emilie was bad, she did enable some characters to be more flexible, but didn't really make any lasting impact)

final patch characters are usually bait on a given chapter be its whatever 5* (e. g emilie for Fontaine), or the last character released is a 4 rarity (i think sumeru ended with kirara, inazuma ended with heizou,

only 1.0 left a huge character impact (Kazuha)

well technically speaking a while back they closed their redwood city California location and everyone there was functionally fired.

I havent even played a ubisoft title since before 2010. I just had the advantage of not being particularly attached to any of their IP to even reconsider it.

Lets go, return it back to the Washington Football Team

It's why I start following it myself when it gets to the human trial stage and less the breakthrough stage. There, you make the assumption that they have a plan and are much more confident in the product.
