Taiwan is independent of China, you've obviously never been there.
They still have the old wartime territory definitions in their constitution because updating their constitution would provoke a violent response from China. Nobody, absolutely nobody, takes those claims seriously.
they don't, in any practical sense, and haven't since Chiang died in the 80s, probably even before that.
however, they are threatened with invasion if they ever update their constitution to reflect reality, because that would be taken as "declaring independence".(even though they are completely independent anyway)
Agree with most, but I would say the main reason the referendum was held because of domestic politics - Cameron was confident Remain would win, and wanted to shut up UKIP and the Eurosceptic wing of his own party.
there's a very believable anecdote about an early p2p file sharing system, i think audiogalaxy -
"just downloaded an mp3, then see that the uploader is connected and getting the same file.
send a message asking why, replies "getting my song back, dick""
ah, i was looking forward to saying "you're not a villain" with more context, but... it seems like you're making a gacha game.
this sounds just like, for example, Genshin Impact wishes.
the diagnosis stands :(
(i'm assuming that, as usual, managing your upgrades is a secondary part of the gameplay, and that we're talking about a random chance based danger of failure )
why are random setbacks better than just getting out of the player's way, and getting back to the main action of the game as soon as possible?
if upgrades are rewards for playing well enough to gather resources, why waste the player's time and effort when they aren't doing anything wrong?
"wasting" resources can be fine, if you learn something from it, even by process of elimination, like experimenting with different ingredients to find a recipe.
but it sounds here like your game would just slap the player in the face sometimes, to try to make them feel better about when they don't get slapped.

It's the opening scene of "The Chase", TNG S06E20.

going straight into a display case marked "most treasured possession".
There are some outlandish rumours that it's possible for a device to have... both Bluetooth and a headphone jack.

i really miss pop-up cameras on phones.
good peace of mind knowing the fucker is tucked away inside.
"the width of a British-style pub"
the length of a piece of string. the height of a tree. the size of an animal. the colour of a door.

Kiki and Bouba.
yeah, it was Alt. i don't know what's wrong with these other people.
everyone in Taiwan would love to do that, but Beijing can't get over being dumped.

You're a villain. Sorry, the evidence is incontrovertible.
Drag talks about dragself in the dragth person. Drag sounds like drag was dropped on drag's head a few times.
yes, just one person being in the right place at the right time can change the world.
