  1. For some reason I was expecting TREATS not threats in this topic oh well...
  2. Huh, I didn't even know they're making Wonder Woman 2
  3. Feel free to give as many as you like to whoever you like. There is only one rule: you can't abuse the system. So you can't make a new account to upvote yourself. You also can't make a deal with someone else to trade upvotes. Just be an active member and soon you'll be a Mistborn or something like that
  4. @Del-light-full Oh, I know about this new law our super stupid ruling party made. It's a total disaster, it's criticized by anyone with any reasonable education and it's diplomatic cataclysm like we've never had before since 1989... I obviously don't agree with this new law and hate the ruling party even more for trying to do something like that. (To be clear, this high up person that said such disgusting thing was our Prime Minister I'm ashamed of him) Poland has indeed a lot of antisemitic history and there's no denying that. During the communism period we also banished and stripped from citizenship many Jews. There is no denying that there was and still is a strong antisemitic factor in our community
  5. I'm closing this thread to keep discussion about secret project concentrated in one place.
  6. @Truthweaver That's a beautiful kitten! I hope he's not deaf, as I've heard many white cats have problems with their hearing...
  7. IMO, thank her for hearing you out politely and not being mean or anything. It's all in her hands now. Maybe ask is she wants to go on a date? Her answer will tell you all you need to know.
  8. Shamelesly necroing to show you this photos ^^ Usually it's hard to do a good photo of Henio in bright daylight, because of too much contrast between him and any background. Most of the time either he's a black cat-shaped-blob on the photo or it's him with extra-bright background. That's why I'm super proud of this photo ^^
  9. Python and some PHP sometimes.
  10. Unfortunately, because we use PostgreSQL full text search feature, we have to deal with it's consequences. One such consequence is that there are words that get excluded from searching, because they're too common. A more or less accurate list of those words is here: https://gist.github.com/fnando/8999831. "Own" is on that list, that's why searching for hoid+own is equal to searching for "hoid". But if you try hoid+mansion, you'll get right what you need.
  11. I think hiding your own posts is no longer available for regular users. There were couple cases of abuse regarding this feature. Now, reporting you own post is the way to go. And don't be afraid, there won't be any consequences for just sending a report
  12. That's a very convincing AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
  13. I'd like to remind everyone that this thread is not in the OB board, so no spoilers from OB are allowed. So far nobody posted anything really spoilery, but OB has been mentioned, so I write it just in case.
  14. That's part of the plan. I just takes some time to make a forum plugin that does it (and some other things) properly.
  15. Just hold on a little longer, we're working on a software solution to stop them from posting.
  16. @Ammanas we still talk about those times and are very proud of them. Back then Poland protected Europe from Muslims and also provided huge amounts of food for other countries. We're also extremely proud of our hussars from that time (warning, foul language behind this link) http://www.badassoftheweek.com/hussars.html More civilized article: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_hussars
  17. *USA anthem playing in the background, crowds stand up with tears in their eyes* sorry, couldn't resist Now, seriously to the point, and comments on your essay: Are you sure about those 17 thousand years? That would place fall of Athens somewhere near 15 000 BC, I think the events you mention took place around 500 BC? It's hard to say, if our culture is now stronger than ever. I think it might have been stronger in the past. It is for sure solid and strong. We have a very strong sens of identity, not only due to what happened in WW2, but also during the following Soviet occupation (they too tried to get rid of polish things). Poland as a country and nation has a very rich history of being oppressed. Before WW1 and WW2 there were Partitions of Poland which led to many years, when Poland wasn't present on the maps of Europe. Despite being divided between 3 occupying nations, our culture and national identity survived. Unfortunately, the ideology didn't die. There still are some small groups (recently getting louder and bigger), even in Poland, that for example celebrate Adolf Hitler's birthday. Same in other European countries, there are small groups of neo-nazis. Fortunately, they are always strongly opposed by the majority. All in all I liked your essay. It was well thought and provided relevant examples from the history. Very nice!
  18. Can you be a bit more specific? There are works of many authors on Coppermind, so there's no single point of contact to ask about copyrights. In case of coppermind text, you should ask @Chaos, while images and other media content is owned by their respective creators and you need to find them. Here's the copyright page of Coppermind, that confirms what I said: https://coppermind.net/wiki/Coppermind:Copyrights
  19. @mickeysala To be honest, I don't know which Stormlight novella comes with subscribing to newsletter. I thought it was White Sand (prose version). Whatever it is, you can discuss it in appropriate subforum. We have Stormlight forum (beware of separate Oathbringer subforum), White Sand forum etc. Just scroll down a bit on the main forum page. I have edited the topic title, so it says a bit more. Please use meaningful titles next time.
  20. That's a really good drawing! you might consider uploading it to our fanart gallery
  21. Money Immortality until I don't want it anymore Understanding women
  22. I left home relaxed and sure that I'll make It on time to the bus stop. I was late by 1 minute and saw my bus leave without me :/
  23. @Sunbird as usual, I adore those little updates to your rainbow bird ^^
