In Portuguese (as spoken in Portugal, Brazil, USA, Japan, Ghana, wherever) they're an americano/a but in English (as spoken in USA, UK, Brazil, Portugal, Nepal, wherever) they're South American but not American because it's a linguistic difference rather than a geographical/cultural one

Also you can actually see the stars and can hold a regular sleep schedule unlike in summer where it never actually gets beyond twilight

High school depends, if you're bullied or don't work well in that setting or feel under too much social pressure to do what's cool then it's ~borderline~ torture, otherwise sure it's great

Yeah either you live in London so are paying at a minimum 1600/month or 20k/year for a 350k mortgage, or if you live in the north or less desirable parts of the south you're gonna be paying 750/month or 9000/year for a 175k mortgage, either way if that's 40%, once you consider tax, bills, heating, food, transport (because no way can you afford to live within walking distance of work as a first time buyer) and whatever else you frankly don't have a whole load left all in

My favourite theory of time travel is that in the vast majority of timelines, travelling back in time guarantees that events will unfold as they always will, as given an infinite number of timelines in entropy there will be at least one timeline that forms a loop, and from that point effectively every timeline follows that loop. It may even be a multi-step loop, but it's still a loop and the time travel causes the events that leads to the time travel.

Not voting for Israel wasn't going to have an impact if you weren't voting for them anyway, however people who support Israel in the conflict voting for them will have an effect that there's very little you can do to stop. You don't think Russia would have had voting farms to stop Ukraine if it was possible? That's why they got so many votes - if they have 15% support, then they'll get that 15% of votes which is a significant number.

It's actually from a failed cloning where the DNA from Hulk Hogan got mixed with Trevor Phillips from GTA V's

About 165 minutes for Anchorage... For reference, Helsinki is also 165, Glasgow is 135, London 120, even Milan is 95

Coming from anywhere in Europe the idea of somewhat balanced day lengths throughout the year sounds wild

Qwant actually have their own indexer, but even then I feel like Microsoft can push their own products as they want given you are free to ignore it... It's not like there's no alternative browsers, search engine indices or operating systems, and loads of other products are built off shared technology without it being an issue that it's closed off generally

Do you need to know?

It could be interesting to have it just be a canonical "black hole, ie nobody knows what's there - it started with people, animals and plants disappearing and then jumped to hills, buildings and even weather systems until there was nothing there at all as far as the outside world is aware; nobody who goes there ever comes back, satellite photos come back corrupted, and people are scared to even mention it
