Well it’s a .ru domain so that site is russian and there is this bit
That is why the current government of Burkina Faso needs Russian assistance not only to ensure victory over terrorism, but also to carry out effective economic reforms, create new jobs, and develop resources on equal terms.
Which doesn’t mean anything per se but it’s kinda suspect.
There Is a game call Ancient Domains of Mystery (ADoM) that has been around since the early 90’s. It’s a traditional Roguelike that I picked up and started playing in 2003 and I have yet to actually beat the game. I have thousands of hours on it in Steam and much much more than that before the Steam release and I have yet to actually win. It’s hard.
Does it matter? Endlessly pontificating about the true nature of reality serves no purpose. If I’m driving and I’m about to hit a tree, reality doesn’t give a single fuck if I consider “well maybe the tree isn’t really there. How can I truly know?”
Like, I was talking with a guy and he was saying shit about how can we truly know that what I say is the color green is the same as what you see? It just feels mastubatory. It’s what words are for. If that guy asks me to go to the store and buy forest green paint from a certain brand and I come back with forest green paint from that brand he’s not going to worry about whether or not we see the exact same shade.
I had to listen to a guy talk about the fanfic he was writing for 4 hours. So anything but that I suppose.
I know. I was just saying that the American in the pic is only puzzled because they are mindlessly scrolling and posting on Twitter. When the time comes to go to an event like that they are also just as likely to take the train without much thought to it either
No one is puzzled. This was a case of someone casually scrolling and commenting without critical thought. Which, let’s be honest, we are all guilty of that and the other guy taking the opportunity to dunk with an AmEriCa Am I rIgHt???
Ah. The forgotten lands, according to some maps.
Well said. To add to this, mother’s are still going through a hurricane of hormones and exhaustion when both they and the baby are just starting to learn how to latch. I remember my wife crying saying she was a bad mother, and the baby hates her, and that she is so stupid to think she could do this. It was heartbreaking.
I kinda wish the article has expanded on what he said, if anything. Does he still think they are well made games even if he doesn’t like the direction?
Like, I don’t like the new Zelda games, I don’t think they have stayed true to the original Zelda (not you Zelda II) games. That said, I cannot deny that a lot of care and polish went into them, I just don’t like the direction.
Sure, the new God of War games are not the original avatar-of-rage Kratos but they are still exceptional games.
I was gonna find a fun obscure trope to link to but then I looked up and an hour had passed
I thought it said Transformers and I was like “why do they avoid mirrors?”
The antenna looking piece of wire is the ground so it doesn’t matter if it picks up anything.
They’re pretty much the same. I think anarchist took Jolly Roger and expanded on it. Worth mentioning, don’t actually do any of the stuff in there. The chemistry is suspect and the tech stuff is laughably outdated.
Zelda BotW and TotK are not fun. The stamina system is pointless and the weapon durability is frustrating. On top of that, the world’s are just sooo empty. There’s really nothing in them. Oh look, an interesting ruin… it’s another repetitive shrine. Oh, that geological formation is really unique aaannnddd it’s another fucking korok seed. That’s all you ever got for exploring. Shrines and korok seeds.
I did like slapping random shit onto my weapons in tears of the kingdom though. All in all to me the games are fine but not really Zelda games.
I never understood the arguments people use surrounding daylight savings. The health risks, accident risks, any risks surround the actual switch, not really the what time is used. If the clocks were set forward for “summer time” then 3 months later Daylight savings was abolished and no one changes their clocks anymore (as you said, permanent summer time) there would be no ill effects from it cause everyone was already used to the time change.
I want to get rid of daylight savings. I don’t care whether it’s standard time that use used or daylight savings time that is used as long as the switchover stops happening.
Nah, just an affront to nature and an abomination in the eyes of God.
Nah, there is always more Intel to be gained. We’ve seen how Russia fares against those weapon systems and now it’s a question of how will they change their strategy? If the US makes a prediction about new Russian doctrine, will the US assessment be accurate or does the US intelligence apparatus need to rethink it’s analysis procedure. In a conflict heavy with drone usage, what can we learn about their use and more importantly, countermeasures, both on the adversarial side and blue side.
Anyway my point is that there is always more to learn from your opponent.
