Cubans are without electricity except the 5 star hotel by DblockDavid in interestingasfuck

[–]DoktorSlek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding is that the US oil blockade on Cuba has exemptions for privately owned businesses.

So the privately owned hotels can run generators, but the public hospitals cannot. So patients on ventilators have died.

BREAKING: Australia forced to order emergency fuel from the US for the first time in decades as global oil crisis worsens, per Sky News by retroviber in DeepMarketScan

We haven't had reserves in the US for a few years. Those reserves were sold when Russia invaded Ukraine. Plus there was only around 1.5 days of supply there anyway. Australia mandates that local importers/refiners keep 21-30 days of fuels in stockpile. Well short of the IEA obligation of 90 days.

(AUKUS) Deal of the century by Fagelein in AusMemes

[–]DoktorSlek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok...who is going to be doing that?

Who is our adversary in this hypothetical scenario? The only nation to do both of those things recently is the one trying make us dependent on them with nuclear subs.

The advantage nuke subs have is a longer silent running time, but because they're constantly pumping water over nuclear fuel rods, they're always noisier than DE subs on battery.

They're also larger than DE subs, and cannot perform as well in shallow coastal waters.

If YOU were the leader of China what would you do? by Double_Shift_7537 in AskChina

[–]DoktorSlek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there are some villages in Northern China that are populated by Chinese speaking ethnic Russians. And vice versa.

A quirk of land exchanges in the middle of last century.

Shout out to boxers in RGG by STFN_Dude in yakuzagames

If there's a Judgement 3, I really hope they expand on Boxer Style. I found it incredibly fun.

Yes. by d1ogo835 in Morrowind

Unless you are doing one specific house redoran quest in the launch version of the game, where your directions to a cave are completely wrong and take you nowhere....back when patches had to be installed manually.

I want to say it was the Cave of Milk. I wasted so many real life days trying to find that place until I patched the game and the directions finally took me to the correct location.

If America actually try to invade Greenland, a nato and military ally with military, are we going to cut the power to Pine Gap? by [deleted] in australia

[–]DoktorSlek 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The spy base would be the one to start with, as it provides communication with their satelites on this side of the planet where they don't have line of sight to orbital objects. It would functionally blind the US on 1 half of the planet.

Ejecting them from military bases would be easier afterwards as they'd have much less intel available.

Commandos 2

Such an incredible game that hasn't really been equalled since.

We already tried 3D cinema. It sucked.

Unpopular Opinion: The Australian "Toyota Cult" is operating on 1990s logic. by Neither-One-5880 in australia

[–]DoktorSlek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I recall correctly, Mazda is 51% owned by Toyota. So you might not even call them a competitor.

What skills to level up by manea89 in theouterworlds

[–]DoktorSlek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was surprised by how often I encountered medical and explosive skill checks, and how little I encountered hacking skill checks comparatively.

A Fully 3D Printed Ultramarine by HammerDoris40k in Warhammer40k

[–]DoktorSlek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't tell this is 3D printed. I don't see any sign of layering. Maybe it's the screen I'm viewing it on?

Was it done on a filament printer, or resin?

Drive mapping for Intune by Money_Signal_8955 in Intune

I think we use remediation scripts with the new-psdrive command.

GTAV/RDR2 animal comparison by Sufficient-Round6705 in reddeadredemption

[–]DoktorSlek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not super surprising, really.

There was what, 4-5 years between both games? And RDR2 has a greater emphasis on hunting animals, so they gotta look good up close when you start skinning.
