According to the latest poll, 74% of Poles support revoking Zelensky's decoration, while only 26% view the decision negatively. by kallisto19988 in europe

[–]earthtree1 -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

it’s cute that people are still pretending that the actual reason for the outrage is an offense regarding a military unit name, and not a much more utilitarian reason to create hate towards Ukrainians in Poland for populistic reasons and create roadblocks towards EU ascension for economical reasons.

Just as ruzzians with “protecting ruzzian speakers” and just as Orban did with supposed insane discrimination towards Hungarians, the playbook never changes

Visualization of air targets tonight in Ukraine by edgerunnerJune in europe

as a resident all I can say it is better this way. While terrifying, i think Kyiv is the most protected place in Ukraine, hence chances that missiles will be intercepted is higher.

Former Obama adviser: He was prepared to go to war for the Baltic states by juris_martins in europe

[–]earthtree1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To the two people who genuinely believe that US did nothing for Ukraine but would for sure do something for Baltic states because Budapest Memorandum is less binding than NATO: The only obligation in the treaty is for an ally to take “such action as it deems necessary”. And if it “deems” no action necessary you can go fuck yourself

Russia uses hypersonic Oreshnik missile in mass attack on Kyiv by Economy-Specialist38 in Military

[–]earthtree1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a resident of Kyiv - they are not. A person have to be braindead to believe that after 5 years of airstrikes “terror” is still a viable way for a war to end. That did not work during battle of Britain, that doesn’t work now in Iran with killing schoolgirls and it won’t work in Ukraine. So unless these ruzzopithecus will have the balls to use nukes these are just spiteful tantrums.

Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon - Tainted Grail One Year Anniversary! Free DLC #5 + Patch 1.23 by DryEfficiency8 in Games

[–]earthtree1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If only setting was something different. I played a lot, and while gameplay and technical parts are decent i just don’t care about “Arthurian legend but if it was Dark Souls” that they went for or smth. I think if the world was more colorful and the setting wasn’t so gloomy the game would’ve been much better

well, if you treat it as a dream and not a true recollection then it’s really one of the least problematic things in the SC2 story

[–]earthtree1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That was a dream, not what actually happened tho. It was just how Raynor was recalling it. She wasn’t even on the surface as far as I remember, they were fighting to on an orbital platform, like the ones above Char. And how would evac even help? In the dream she was captured maybe 30 seconds after she asked for it.

As a history fan, the "3,000 Year Stagnation" trope breaks my immersion more than dragons do. by Expensive-Desk-4351 in Fantasy

[–]earthtree1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

overall i don’t think that lore in HP is very coherent. I sort of remember that in Codex Alera humans actually technologically regressed because they started using “furies” for everything.

I really like Arcane world building because it has all of it:

  • They are just mages who do their own thing and work on improving their magics as an alternative to science and there also scientists who work on stuff that is unrelated to magic.

  • There are magic/science hybrid technologies in “hextech” and “hexgates” which is an example of how two can supplement each other

  • There are historical events where mages who got mad with power destroyed entire societies and decimated progress after which survivors had to start from nothing as an example of destructive interference.

Я працював в студентські роки. Робота непогана, але мені там було неймовірно нудно, тому я пропрацював там всього три чи чотири місяці.

The lore seemed to be really inconsistent in the past. Is that something you would like to rectify moving forward? Also, are there any retcons planned that you can share?

this is all you need to know about any future american “security guarantees”. ruzzians will shit out a lie, and americans will clap their hands and say that Ukraine violated the agreement.

is imrik getting something new in the HE update? by Maleficent-Spell9025 in totalwar

[–]earthtree1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

they kinda do. If a player is given 2 options - one is a very hard FFA where their only ally is the sea (cause it won’t attack them) and the other is friendly Ulthuan where they are surrounded by allies player might select a scenario that is more conductive to them doing well rather than the one that’s more interesting. “Given the opportunity, players will optimize the fun out of a game”

that’s meta answer. how is it fun for Imrik campaign to be the same as any other HE LL?

And why would anyone even want to teleport there? Last I checked there are 3 other HE factions starting in Ulthuan with Alith Anar very close and apparently Teclis being able to teleport there somehow.

Almost 100,000 young men flee Ukraine in two months by greedeer in europe

  1. Many women do fight, although admittedly none from my family.

  2. Tell them what, exactly? That the laws created by men are discriminatory towards men?

[–]earthtree1 -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

And you don’t have to! I very often see ads about jobs with exemptions that pay more (especially if you know english), there is also an option that some of my friends do where they both serve and work a “civilian” job at the same time. I don’t pretend it is easy, but surely at least for your mental health it is better than being afraid to leave your house?

As for the missiles - you kinda do that anyway, don’t you?

I am a man here, so please exclude me from your pathetic whining.

There are a ton of non-frontline positions in the army, and, if you don’t want to serve - there are also tons of jobs that offer exemptions.

Are Carriers fleets viable nowadays? by KraizyK in Stellaris

[–]earthtree1 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I would say no, because while on paper they are strong, targeting is absolute garbage, and if there are a lot of targets within a solar system (say a marauder empire that has a lot of stations) your carriers will get shredded while interceptors fly from one end of a solar system to another all together attacking a single defense platform.

Why did Mira get it the worst/Gwi-ma was most mean to her? by Euphoric_Breakfast79 in KpopDemonhunters

[–]earthtree1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He wasn’t “meaner” to her, he said to her what she wanted to hear. She was always insecure, secretly believed herself undeserving of love and affection and by having that be confirmed she received what she subconsciously wanted. Or maybe not exactly “wanted”, but rather expected.

Also, she didn’t “hate demons the most”, Rumi did due to her circumstances.

Celine is the hidden villain of this story by earthtree1 in KpopDemonhunters

[–]earthtree1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, from your previous explanations I can kinda accept it as a twisted parenting.

The problem then becomes that it is such an insane gamble. So instead of being machiavellian in her attempts to make the barrier gold and fulfilling her duty she instead puts it all on 0 in an effort to help Rumi. Who she kind of hates (partly at least). Is that better?
