![]() Thus, we salute this monument of digital entertainment for its understated yet profound impact on the trajectory of human civilization. Yet, when we reflect upon the game's influence on education, global culture, technology, and economy, its place in the pantheon of 20th-century milestones seems less absurd. To conclude, to compare Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings with powered flight, the transistor, and atomic energy, might seem an act of ludicrous exaggeration to the uninitiated. ![]() One could argue that every cryptocurrency transaction today is, in a sense, a child of the economic system pioneered in the Age of Kings, where gold, stone, wood, and food were the only currencies that mattered. Note: In a multiplayer game, the Enable Cheats box in the lower right corner must be checked in order for the codes to work. Similarly, Age of Empires II unveiled an uncharted frontier - the digital economy. While playing the game, press Enter to display the chat window and type one of following codes to activate the corresponding cheat function. The harnessing of atomic energy unlocked a Pandora’s box of possibilities and risks. With this game, anyone could make a friend in Tokyo, a rival in London, and an ally in Sydney - all during lunch break. It turned our computer screens into digital arenas where the geography of conflict was limited only by our Wi-Fi connections. It was not merely a game, it was a transistor for the imagination.Īs flight shrunk our world, turning distant continents into next-door neighbors, Age of Empires II performed a similar act of spatial wizardry. Indeed, with a few clicks, any teenager in their bedroom could command armies, create empires, and essentially - play God. In this digital realm, historical battles were no longer things of the past. Much like the transistor revolutionized the world of communication, Age of Empires II transformed history from a dusty, book-laden subject into an interactive, edge-of-the-seat adventure. Yet, ponder this - just as the Wright brothers enabled us to fly without feathers, Age of Empires II gifted humanity with the power to traverse through time without a time machine. Now, some might raise an eyebrow, questioning the audacity to put AOE2 on the same pedestal as such ground-breaking feats. ![]() But, in this trove of remarkable breakthroughs, a diamond remains inadequately polished - Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings. Notably, the birth of powered flight that brought the clouds within our grasp, the transistor which shrunk vast computational power into the palm of our hands, and the harnessing of atomic energy which - quite literally - split the nature of reality. So I just created a little group with some rules to make it less risky for the generous givers."Age of Empires II: A Monumental Breakthrough"Īs we glance retrospectively at the 20th century, it's impossible to overlook some of the monumental advancements that left indelible footprints on the fabric of human civilization.

![]() Gemini appears to have launched GUSD on its Earn product in June 2021, beginning with an annual return of 7.4%, the highest of any coins. The rate of return available on Gemini Dollars was often the highest available for the dozens of tokens available for lending through Gemini Earn, as seen in archived links to Gemini Earn’s webpage. “I was seeing the yield that they were offering for some of their coins, specifically for the GUSD coin,” explains Sarah, who requested that Forbes use a pseudonym for fear of blowback from her employer. “Everything was so marketed as GUSD being this safe, stable asset that had one to one backing,” says Sarah, a Brooklyn-based investor who lent out $20,000 of GUSD through Gemini Earn beginning in January, when Gemini advertised the annual return on Gemini Dollar at over 8%. Since November 9, around the time of FTX’s collapse, GUSD holders have exchanged some $250 million worth of their Gemini Dollars back into dollars or other cryptocurrencies, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Previous filings will not be affected.ĭemand for Gemini Dollars has fallen off a cliff. Last evening, on December 15, Gemini emailed its customers to announce an update to the dispute resolution clause of its terms of service, to move future disputes to a separate arbitration forum. We don't even have an audit here.Gemini insists it has no obligations to those investors who bought Gemini Dollars and lend them out through Genesis. Lehman Brothers passed an audit shortly before their collapse. Personally, I've used these services but only because I can tap other assets in the worst case. These types of Black Swans don't happen often but they do happen and when they do, the impact can be devastating. I wonder if people were burned by that or could have been burned by it, were it not for the trying to protect their reputation. These are startups and BlockFi, at least, has already made a number of clerical mistakes, like sending massive amounts of BTC by accident. ![]() We're essentially relying on reputation and it's unclear what would happen in the case of bankruptcy or even what their liability is for mistakes on their end. It would be nice for Gemini and BlockFi to spell out exactly what they're doing, instead of vague and broad generalizations that they give us now. I see your point but, also, we don't know how they do their accounting for sure. The main calculation for borrowing indefinitely on Bitcoin for me would be that I would have the expectation from year to year to average at least 7% on my Bitcoin and that would cover my loan and the rest would be profit. That's a big misconception in the world of lender borrowers of the crypto world where some of the biggest and worst volatility downward for crypto have been some of the best days for the likes of Celsius Network and others.īorrowing exists in all markets, and people that intended on selling their crypto for profit after a big dump may well rather borrow on the crypto anticipating it rising again later and conversely if your cryptos had a huge pump and your capital gains and subsequent taxes would be too much because you've done too well too quickly and would have short-term capital gains taxes which are at a higher rate than holding at least a year here in America then you would also want to borrow on your crypto. I suspect there are possible scenarios where something catastrophic happens and all of a sudden ur GUSD is worthless.Īny help/clarification would be so so appreciated, thanks! If there was no GUSD and it was solely USD earning 8% interest FDIC backed I would have no questions at all. Sorry if the post is a little pessimistic for the subreddit, the whole concept just seems too good to be true to me. Last question - if I was invested in GUSD trying to earn interest what are the possible scenarios/situations where all of a sudden my money is at risk and I lose the chance to take it out (like Madoff). I have this slight suspicion that god forbid the crypto market crumbles in the span of a day or two that there is a chance you won't be able to swap out all your GUSD to USD and you lose your savings if the crypto market never bounces. The thing is, it says that GUSD is not backed by FDIC which was a red flag to me (despite saying their balance sheets saying they have enough USD to back GUSD). ![]() Gemini says that the USD you deposit is FDIC backed, but then they require you to convert it 1:1 to GUSD to earn that 8% interest. Naturally, I was a little skeptical at first and had a few questions. Was doing research and saw that the interest rate for GUSD is about 8% per year, which is insanely high compared to savings accounts. ![]() ![]() ![]() While téknon is often translated as "son", the word is gender-neutral and is more literally "child" or "offspring". The possibility that Marcus Junius Brutus, however, was Caesar's son was viewed sceptically by ancient historians and broadly rejected by modern ones. Both men were rumoured at the time in Rome to be Caesar's illegitimate children. The subject of this comment is, like in antiquity, almost universally believed to have been directed at Marcus Junius Brutus, who was the son of Caesar's favourite mistress Servilia, and was said to have been very dear to Caesar, but there has been speculation that the words may have actually been meant to be said to Decimus Junius Brutus Albinus with whom Caesar also had a very close relationship and on several occasions described as "like a son to him". Though Suetonius, Cassius Dio and probably Plutarch as well seem to have believed that Caesar died without saying anything further, the first two reported that according to others Caesar had spoken the Greek phrase "καὶ σύ τέκνον" ( Kaì sý, téknon - You too, child) to Brutus, as (in Suetonius) or after (in Dio) the latter struck at him. Plutarch does not provide the actual Latin phrase but rather reports it in Greek as "μιαρώτατε Κάσκα, τί ποιεῖς" (Miarṓtate Káska, tí poieîs?) Plutarch does not give any further quotes, but he says that Caesar "cried aloud" as he fought back and tried to escape, but gave up when he saw senator Marcus Junius Brutus among the assassins. However, the historian Plutarch claims that Caesar cried out in Latin "Foulest Casca, what are you doing?"-alternatively translated as "Casca, you villain, what are you doing?"-after being stabbed by senator Servilius Casca, the first conspirator to do so. ![]() Another version sometimes parroted is "What is this? Such violence against Caesar!" this version is a twisting of Suetonius's writing and not an accurate translation of surviving texts, which seems to emphasise Caesar's ego as it implies both affront and shock that anyone would ever dare to attempt to attack him. It is suggested that this groan was more of an aggressive "spontaneous curse". Suetonius further writes that Caesar spoke no more after this, besides a groan after the first knife blow, and died without saying anything. According to the historian Suetonius, Caesar shouted out in Latin, "Ista quidem vis est!" ("Why, this is violence!" or "But this is violence!") when his toga was ripped down from his shoulder. Possibilities Expression of surprise towards the attack ĭuring the assassination, senator Tillius Cimber grabbed hold of Caesar's toga and pulled it down from his neck, which signalled to the other conspirators that it was time to attack. William Shakespeare's Latin rendition of this phrase, Et tu, Brute? ('You too, Brutus?'), in the play Julius Caesar is better known in modern culture, but is not found in ancient sources. The two most common theories – prevalent as early as the second century AD – are that he said nothing or that he said, in Greek, καὶ σύ, τέκνον ( kaì sý, téknon 'you too, child'). Ancient chroniclers reported a variety of phrases and post-classical writers have elaborated on the phrases and their interpretation. The last words of the Roman dictator Julius Caesar are disputed. Caesar can be seen staring at Brutus, who is looking away from Caesar's gaze. ![]() Part cropped from The Death of Julius Caesar (1806) by Vincenzo Camuccini. ![]() ![]() Come to Flip Trickster, you will really experience the difficulty of. ![]() The number of levels we will see added will vary as we have seen anywhere from one to three stages added on a Flip Trickster update.

Still, when ice climbing, you want to be sure to bring a dry treated rope. Especially with repeated use and exposure to the elements, the rope can lose some of its water proofing abilities. Now, this dry treatment has limits as to how well it can perform. To prevent this, some ropes are ‘dry treated’, meaning the sheath is designed to not let any water through. When the core of a rope gets wet, it loses a lot of its catching strength, and your safety is therefor compromised. The sheath, which is designed to protect the core.Įssentially, the core does all of the important work of catching you when you fall, and the sheath protects the core from sharp rocks and anything else that would damage its structural integrity.The core, which is made of a stretchy nylon and is responsible for catching your weight when you fall.To understand why this is important, you need to have a basic understanding of how climbing ropes are made.
