I would still pick the African ones, nonetheless.
There is no need for sarcasm.
We tend to forget Africa had great kingdoms, with advanced civilization standards, before colonial times. Those kingdoms ruled the largest continent on the planet for centuries and elephants were animals used for both work and war.
Hanibal took elephants across the Alpes (most died) in order to invade Italy. I seriously doubt the general ordered his elephants from India.
I can’t remember where I read it but it was a good coverage on the historical use of elephants in Africa in pre-colonial, as in during the great african kingdoms. And lets not forget war elephants, in Roman times, were from Africa.
Yet I remember reading somewhere african elephants were tamed before their asian counterparts.
If that is enough for your needs, that’s fine.
from the moment you realize just how easy and powerful using the console is, you learn how to use it
Yes, I understand that; there is a learning curve. For some, too steep.
The short answer is yes. But the interesting part - and I’m talking from personal experience - is that from the moment you realize just how easy and powerful using the console is, you learn how to use it.
And it does not mean you are going to turn into a full on expert or geek, tinkering around the console. You just learn a few simple commands that enable you to do something (or somethings) quicker, easier and cleaner than going through a GUI.
Can you? Yes. Should you? No.
Fully agree.
If this kind of institution starts to be ignored, with no consequences, then it no longer serves a purpose.
Aliens took them, obviously. What else? What other logical, rational, simple explanation could there be?
Thank you.
But… Why do you assume I have instant knowledge of acronyms because I opted to insert a comment on a topic that teased my interest? Does it pressuposes anything about my person?
Good morning.
Let’s call that example the canary in the mine but I’m seeing many similar situations where I live.
Being in a less than urban area, there is still a bit of industry around and some factories are cutting staff and a few have already shut down operations, especially in sectors more closely related with end user products (clothing, footwear, yarn, etc). Industries with ties to industrial use (metal working, construction materials, wood and derivates) are keeping afloat but only replacing workers that go into retirement or that for some reason or another just quit, and these industries, in my understanding, are keeping afloat because of the hard push into more sustainable and efficient houses, which is forcing a good deal of public investment into large renovation projects and funds.
Parallel to this, bakeries, coffee shops, small businesses that rely on consumption, are shutting down. For me, this implies there is less money floating around.
Paired with the hike in housing…
You are going to have to unfold all of those acronyms before we can move forward with this conversation.
I don’t have the palest of ideas of what you are trying to convey.
How could such an odd choice benefit them?
Honest question.
The only thing I’m sure of is death and taxes.
I’m risking that statement because I’m seeing a good deal of events similar to what happened the last time we went through one (the world) and the big companies starting to let go people is like the canary in the mine.
I smell a recession forming!
If it is impossible, either shut down operations or find a way to pay for it.

It has everything to turn out right. No possibility to stem resentment and anger.
They accomplish that and the already diminutive presence they have in the world will shrink even more.
