Can you enable your podcasts to be downloaded?
Ah, yes they should be available for download now.
-
No closed caption?
I don't think soundcloud offers a closed caption feature. I just started using it though.

Alright, serious question about podcasts. How often do you see yourself doing podcasts to discuss things? And do you see podcasts as a good opportunity to have a talk with members of the community in an active conversation?
Maybe as frequent as once a week, probably at least once a month. And yes, I imagine I'll take some questions and do some Q&A stuff as part of future podcasts.

#selfie2016
Shh you're not supposed to know it's a selfie. I just didn't have anyone around to take a picture of me

As someone who moderates a community board larger than this, I'd reconsider requiring other approvals before locking threads.
Actually one of the things we're implementing, ironically

Perks.... but there is no drop down bar for when you just go to military, and we can only access it on the link you provided
That's because they're not added yet. You can't do anything with them, and that page isn't even completed.

The forum rules apply to blogs as well.

A very well thought out and written blog post. Thanks for the good read.

I think this is really neat, and you should stick with it!

Very interesting indeed. There issue I see with this is that as nations grow larger, land pretty much has to scale with it. You just can't build a 2000+ infra city on 500 land efficiently. And nations with a large population are the type of countries most likely to be investing resources into defensive systems. Perhaps instead of land, population density?
Missile damage is already increased (potentially) with a high population density.

This is an interesting (and well thought out and written) idea. Thank you for sharing.

Just look it up. For the last 3 billion years, the earth has changed back and forth between a hot house and a snowball. It's called the Ice Age (glacial period). There have been many of them and they never last very long. We are currently living at the tail end of an ice age.
While I'd be happy to hear that climate change isn't man-made, and we can continue to drive our big trucks and whatnot around, how do you refute something like this?
Again, I'm no expert on climate science, but there's these two clashing groups with opposing scientific theories, and, well, science just isn't that opinionated. Is there proof that the data we've collected, correlating CO2 levels to increasing temperatures, isn't actually a cause/effect relationship?

This obviously doesn't address pollution and destruction of the environment, but I don't know why we haven't been able to set up some sort of apparatus that captures carbion dioxide out of the air, and just pumps it underground. Or, maybe make CO2 pipelines from urban areas to forests, where the CO2 would (theoretically) be better captured by the plant life. It would take government operation/subsidies, but I'd imagine if you got a few nations on board (India, China, US, and others) that would eliminate the whole "carbon footprint" thing.
Note: I am not even closed to a climate expert, and I totally understand that everything I just said might be completely wrong

wat if i jsut wanna be a dictator
Even a modern dictatorship does not give all the power to one individual to write, enforce, and decide on laws.
There will still be a group of advisers, at the very least, that advise in the legislative process.

About these "Perks"......those have been talked about for some time now.....when will they be introduced?
This is a suggestion that would be an alternative to perks.

I think random events would be better
Random events are also something I'm drafting up, but at a regional level with no sort of "response" individually.

I think this is a good idea, perhaps giving multiple options? Say you have a law about drugs. I can think of three options for this right now. 1. All drugs are illegal. 2. Certain drugs are legal. 3. All drugs are legal.
This could have many effects and I think would give more than just yes/no
There doesn't need to be options, just different laws.
One law makes all drugs illegal. One law makes only the harshest drugs illegal. One laws decriminalizes all drugs.
Each would probably have an effect on the crime rate in relation to the population, so at a different nation size each is optimal.

Do you guys use a dedicated host or do you host PnW on your own home server?
I use a dedicated host

Neat! Your test of the blog feature is better than mine, and with some actual content!
