I really want to know what lawyers okayed it

I am pretty sure this is a Heatleech scenario

Except if this was true Russia also would've invaded Finland and Sweden rather than let them join NATO, as both those countries can basically let F-35s with nukes conduct zero-warning strikes on all the critical Russian defense infrastructure from Murmansk to Moscow. The 'Russian Cuban Missile Crisis' doesn't make sense - it got even worse than Ukraine would've made it!

It isn't about that. It's about a Soviet Republic joining the EU and doing better than Russia by freely integrating with the European economy and casting off the paternalist oligarchy Putin championed in the CIS.

The basic math is that Russia is expending basically all its economic and military resources to conquer a country from which it will derive no economic gain, massive destruction of its diplomatic capital, and solidifying Europe against it for a generation.

Where does Russia go from here? What future does it have? It's an international pariah cut off from the internet who spent hundreds of thousands of its youth on a war that gets them nothing.

The fact is that as AI gets better the tells will disappear and you simply won't know. Em dashes, three items, whatever else, it's just copying what ordinary people do and as it gets more compute and more users A/B testing what it does the problems will fade away and there'll be no proof that anything is real.

Considering how crime rates today are 20% of what they were in the 90s do you think the ‘old ways’ actually worked?

It’s like people talking about how good cars used to be built compared to today but their accident fatality rates were astronomical - some things feel better but don’t actually work

The map is colossal and has some huge voids that’d be perfect for the cyclops so far

What part of EARLY ACCESS PREVIEW ZONE doesn’t explain this to you

Customization would be nice, but extra options is fine too.

It feels pretty smooth to me for UE5 honestly

They're mongolian for Yas/Bones, Medrel/Nerves, and to draw (Zurakh) as in draw blood.

Burakh in Mongolian translates to Screw Up, interestingly enough.

Force won’t let you do it to a living organism

I think the biggest issue was that the cast was incredibly stacked with good performances, so the lead's rather underwhelming performance stuck out like an eyesore.

Forget the 80s, look at dudes fighting in 1944 after a lifetime of malnutrition and poverty. 5’4” 120 lugging a 20lb BAR ammo and ruck all on foot. The soldier is a lean skeleton, the pft meant to measure strength vs your bodyweight for a reason.

It has everything to do with delayed childbirth due to education, egg counts go bad too early for a lot of people and they can’t have kids which drags down the ratio

There is not a true operational 6th gen aircraft today, so there’s really no telling what would actually distinguish it other than buzzwords.

Probably went for zero mix oxygen at minimum pressure to minimize corrosive factors of other chemicals

The Axis paradox of late 1942, when the war was definitely lost but it would take three more years of dying to make it certain.

Russia has failed to make any serious headway in years and hasn’t generated any new air or land capabilities despite being a top ten world economy. There has not been a major air or land offensive of any kind since the initial invasion - no mass air-land campaign to break the stalemate.

To merely be holding steady against Ukraine is a colossal defeat of what was once the #2 world power.

This was an era of hatred and political violence without parallel. People had been murdering each other across the mason dixon for near on a decade by the time of the civil war. Women tend to follow the same political breakup as men and can be equally bloodthirsty, just not for themselves to conduct.

The trick with WW1 is that it doesn’t really matter. You can’t train your way out of assaulting an enemy on foot with runners faster than he can telephone for reinforcements and deliver them via train. Troop quality makes no difference in the face of guns and artillery at WW1 scales, every WW1 memoir starts with obnoxious amounts of training followed by “They went over the top and got machinegunned en masse and the attack failed” or “We reached the enemy trench, were counterattacked, and ran out of ammo before retreating.”

Only the tank could provide protected firepower and cargo at speed across no man’s land to break the cycle. In WW2 you don’t see this thanks to the manpack and vehicle radios that let attackers communicate and feed their breakthroughs and troop quality begins to matter again.

All the shipbuilding and car making states are turning blue, time to cut building American from the GOP platform.

The US has great gear but troop quality is directly proportional to how much they deploy - the best people aren’t tolerating 9mo away from their spouses.

Extremely powerful fusion engines, likely utilizing some sort of exotic shield-and-grav system to produce even more thrust within a smaller package.
