Rome was sacked repeatedly by foreign barbarians. Given the geography, I figure that is either going to be Canada or Mexico.

A young woman I knew was complaining that she had made plans to meet a friend in the city (long before most people had mobile phones), but the friend hadn’t showed up so she waited for a long time on the street corner.
My brother immediately chipped in, “what was his name, John?”
Which Google lens work? And take a picture of each page and feed it to the Google translate engine. It might be the easiest way.
Just to point out, the province of Alberta has more measles case than the entire us, with a population of under 5 million people.
Coincidentally, the area where is this spreading most is the least vaccinated part of the province.
I found the first season superb. The characters weren’t as well defined as later on, but some of the plots were amazing and brutal!
You skipped over the part where you attempt to plug it in, flip the USB connector attempt again, flip it again, and finally it goes in.
Coincidentally, I speak English, French and Japanese, and am learning Spanish (and I learned German and Sesotho in the distant past). I cheated, however all except Spanish were learned at least partially by immersion in places where they speak it.
I have had nicks in my windshield due to gravel thrown up by vehicles traveling in the opposite direction.
Following on what you said, it’s also true that for a long time it was difficult for women to get published in the science fiction genre. Many of them relied on male pseudonyms (i.e. Andre Norton, James Tiptree Jr.).
But OP was speaking specifically about fantasy books, and not specifying only bestsellers.
My guess, with no data to back it up, is that both men and women enjoy writing fantasy and science fiction, and many of them are good at it.
But writing science fiction often requires a science background, and historically there are many more men than women who have that. It is certainly becoming more balanced, but the difference is still there.
So women, who generally don’t have as scientific a background, turn to fantasy where they can create their own worlds.
I recently learned that leaded gas is still used for aviation. Some small planes like Cessnas can be 80 years old and still flying, but do not have engines that are certified to run on leaded gas. So they have leaded.
There’s also a difference, because our elections typically have only a few races on them. In other words, at the federal level I only vote for the candidates in my writing. Typically four to six options.
In a us election, there can be a ballot containing choices for many different levels, including judges, district attorneys, and so on. Not to mention they might have several referenda on the same ballot too.
I could see that being much more complex on paper, making electronic voting attractive.
Don’t be coy, admit that she’s your sister.
I have started using Tux Guitar. It’s an open source version of Guitar Pro, and can read Guitar Pro files.
I second this. It also teaches without using rote memorization. Better than any other books or videos I have ever seen. I have been supporting LT with a monthly donation for several years now.
It’s even better than that. In WordPress, you can select a plug-in from within your WordPress administration, and install it directly. You receive update notifications by email, and can upgrade within the administration panel as well. You don’t have to download and then upload anything.
In both Drupal and WordPress, you can upgrade the site and plugins/modules from CPanel.
I find Drupal just as easy to set up as wordpress. Most shared web hosts have a script to do everything for you, including installing updates. In fact, I find Drupal’s administration more logical and easier to manage. (I may be biased, since I spent 10 years developing Drupal sites.)
The other advantage is that, unlike WordPress, Drupal themes and plugins (the Drupal term is “modules”) are almost all open source and free. I find that WordPress has lots of plugins that give you the basic version for free, but then want to upsell you to a paid version.
Conversely, Japanese people learn to tell the difference between an “o” vowel held for shorter or longer periods, a skill that I find incredibly difficult even though I lived in Japan for 7 years.
