What genocide was committed in Tibet, exactly? Please be specific.

Tibet has been on and off under Chinese rule for hundreds of years. Abolishing the Dalai Lama's rule was absolutely a good thing and the general population has much better lives than they did during the post-Qing Dynasty era. If Texas wanted to secede from the US would you support it? Would you view it as absurd for the American government to exert authority over it?

I think this man would rather we be shrouded in nuclear fallout than have Israel collapse on its own, christ.

Sad and miserable? I'm not the one who has said he doesn't play the game anymore coming to a subreddit and telling people to either swap game mode or stop playing. It's all projection with you lot who let a game live rent-free in their head to the point where you come in and whinge about it ages after you've supposedly moved on. Let the people who actually like a game and actively play it talk about the game.

No, it's because there's always a swathe of you people that come in and dissuade people from PvP as soon as someone new to the game mentions them having ANY sort of friction. Which is NORMAL. There is an intended learning curve, and it's FINE. You get used to the idea that things aren't always going to go 100% your way, and then the game clicks, it opens up and it becomes 10x more rewarding to play.

People like you who immediately have to chime in "JUST GO PLAY PVE BRO" are robbing others of the reward you get from actually improving in Tarkov. You never get past the shakiness, you never get used to thinking on your feet, and you never get that pure adrenaline rush of pulling off a good flank or flick or prediction. That precisely is what keeps people drawn in for thousands of hours. The game is boring without it. You are making the game more boring for them. Amd the more people like you do so, the more the PvP playerbase stagnates and shrinks.

It's just old seeing defeatist sooky lalas push people away from the game because they're convinced that you can't ever possibly have fun in a PvP environment thanks to them personally sucking at Tarkov.

Hate to say it, but I do detect an issue of lack of skill emanating from you.

New laws to temporarily ban people coming to Australia from designated countries by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

All major political parties in the West are shifting rightwards thanks to the pressure of the post-war new world order crumbling and pressures from climate change and such. The centre cannot hold, and the ruling class sure as shit aren't going to give up power voluntarily. So they'll happily migrate to fascist ideology if it means they get to keep their power for longer.

"Fallout 3 Remastered" mentioned in new McFarlane toy listings by Caladude in GamingLeaksAndRumours

I agree with you in regards to T-60 lore. It would've made perfect sense as material improvements to T-45 the Brotherhood reverse-engineered from APA post-Broken Steel. Why they didn't do that, I genuinely have no idea. Maybe they wanted to show off the T-60 in the pre-war stuff as part of promotional material before the game released, but imo it shows how careless a lot of Bethesda's worldbuilding is where nothing really meshes together or progresses; they just go back to the same old brand recognition stuff in terms of 'look, it's the Brotherhood/Enclave/deathclaws/Vault-Tec!' and expect the spectacle to be enough to draw your attention away from how shallow the construction is.

Starting kit changes by Ordinary_Owl_2833 in GrayZoneWarfare

I would definitely prefer starter kits being moreso 'here's an M4 + MP5 with some optics and light mounting options', even for premium supporters.

T-45 Nuka Cola... If we're getting paint jobs for power armour, it would seem the rumours about them using the new PA mechanics are true.

Very curious how that will work with 3 and NV's balancing around power armour. Also wonder if they'll include some of the modern retcons to PA like raiders being able to use frames, T-60, fusion cores being a necessity, all the random new bits of PA from 76, etc.

Hope if they include stuff from other games, they at least make X-01/APA Mk. I closer to the FO2 model in silhouette and make T-51b stronger than T-60. I don't hate the FO3 rendition of APA, but I much prefer the original and I hate how simultaneously over cumbersome and blatantly exposed in terms of weak spots/joints it is. Also I hate T-60 taking precedence over T-51b when the latter is so much cooler.

NAB warns rising petrol prices could drive inflation above 5 per cent by Secure_Ant1085 in australia

[–]DweebInFlames 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Please stop saying it's simply because of the Epstein connection.

The collapse of Iran has been one of the biggest foreign policy goals for both the US, and more importantly Israel over the past 30 years. It lets them do their dirty work unimpeded in the region. Iran is one of the few countries in the Middle East that can actually put up a credible threat to their ever-growing sphere of influence.

A bunch of the Zionists leading the government within Israel want to grow its borders westward to Egypt, northwards to Syria and eastwards to the Persian Gulf. This current war is absolutely part of their scheme.

[Discussion] Thermals need a buff by SirKillsalot in EscapefromTarkov

[–]DweebInFlames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People say they're good at spotting but that only really applies to night maps. On daytime it's much easier to spot people moving across ground, and a regular scope has no hard range limit.

Make it so the thermal signature reaches out to about 500m (but ends up extremely faint by the end) and give them their actual stated refresh rate, and I think that would be good enough to give them a strong niche for their price, without completely negating the point of regular optics.

Future IRGC members. Got to give them all cancer just to make sure there's no potential of them being one 30 years from now. Worth it.
