New #acecombat World News translation, this time for Ace Combat 7!
It's an Our Science article about the space elevator. Turns out those things are pretty hard, but I seem to recall Usea has some experience with megastructures. https://t.co/QKYw80G7An
Was it Diocletian's reforms that forced familal bondage to their careers? I know you mentioned it wrt the legions at one point, but it felt like you skipped how exactly the Legions went from a potential fast track to success to a stagnant backwater.
@mikeduncan Been relistening to Rome Podcast; in the Crisis years you talk about how the Legions was an escape from provincial life, but by late 4th/early 5th cent it was a refuge of the foolish and insane. What changed?
Or were there just too many men like Julius Caesar out there that expecting generals to be like Pompey (wanting merely martial glory without administrative authority) is a pipe dream?
@mikeduncan Was relistening to History of Rome and had a curious thought. If Pompey/Senate had won Civil War, could it have resulted in a 'Turkish' situation, where the Senate has nominal supreme authority but the Legions would intercede if they get out of hand?
@KickTheBeckett Have you ever watched Monogatari? Sort of curious if you had any advice for dealing with an aspect of a character I find pretty shitty.
@ActionZacku While obviously I think trying to understand the rise of the far right is important, I dont think it's a good idea to present the history of modern conservatism as monolithic. The book on the right in particular has been criticized for being conspiratorial https://t.co/00CetOJuya
I'm really excited about the new AC information, but I still want to know why Osea implements the Penal Squadrons. Will that be addressed in game? @kazutoki@PROJECT_ACES
Thank you so too much for worldwide fans, ACES! I’m great happy to your reaction for new trailer and take off day. I proud of you. Cause I think you are one of PROJECT ACES CREWS. A lot of thanks to today.
“Can you hear me?”
@kazutoki can you share the English spellings of the characters revealed in the new Famitsu article? In particular I am curious about Mihaly's last name.
I kinda can't believe that in this day and age there's still hand-wringing over whether the Shinji and Kaworu stuff in NGE 'is gay'. Maybe it's just because I'm bi, but the amount of 'it's not gay because x' I've encountered with fans is pretty disheartening. @KickTheBeckett
@foolycoolyLDN I get why people care about this though; Trans people are pretty marginalized as is, and even if it's a minority, Cis paranoiacs trying to root out 'fifth columnists' can't be great for their wellbeing. So I have no issue with people giving TERFs shit.
