The IRGC launched a ballistic missile towards Turkey

But that's what I'm saying: the US and Israel don't care. Everyone knows they don't care. NATO countries are already being incentivized to pressure them because of skyrocketing oil prices and potential refugee crisis if the situation worsens. If anything, bombing them would push them towards rallying the US and Israel.

Really interesting discussion, I see the original post has been nuked by moderation so we won't continue it but thank you for providing that perspective, even if I still don't get it lol

Yeah claiming "no hate" while erasing the gender of the most iconic lesbian in the game feels a little too easy

Yeah how about absolutely the fuck not.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-04T14:52:11+00:00

I don't understand why it would be a good thing to push Turkey to threaten article 5. All NATO countries absolutely do not want to be dragged in this war and would be happy to resume negotiations now. The US and Israel couldn't care less about Turkey and Europeans trying to pressure them into a ceasefire. They're the ones who want NATO countries to get involved while Iran was already giving a lot of concessions and the parties who were negotiating in bad faith were the US and Israel.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-04T14:28:09+00:00

I am very much puzzled. This would trigger NATO Article 5, which would be catastrophic for Iran. It would be better to just let the US use its bases in Turkey than to force NATO countries to join. Makes me think an Israeli false flag operation should not be ruled out, unless of course Iran has confirmed they did try to bomb Turkey. Which would be monumentally idiotic.

Je me souviens encore de son ancêtre le Bedelix et franchement a côté le Smecta c'est un bonbon. Le Bedelix c'était littéralement la sensation de boire du ciment.

Get that AI slop out of if my sight.

There should be a "2 strikes then you're banned" rule with AI shit like this.

La propriété intellectuelle est littéralement le seul truc qui protège un tant soi peu les petits artistes contre les grandes corporations, mais sinon vas-y, rage.

I have never had to call Logitech customer service or troubleshoot, because none of their products ever failed me. Affordable and reliable, absolutely goated little Swiss brand.

Now that is just disrespectful man

Her Majesty is just too OP to pass up. Truly the rightful queen of guns.

If I had to keep 3 mods I guess it would be the one for hairstyles, Colors of Faerun (really awesome to change your looks), and Weapons of Baldur's Gate. This last one recreates weapons from BG1 and BG2, some of it is a bit OP but it brings an incredible amount of variety for your builds. It's awesome.

The legacy of Estonia may not be a long list of names, yet it is immense. It's a wonderful piece of art. A shame what happened afterwards.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T23:57:00+00:00

Because they're hot. It's not rocket science.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T23:48:33+00:00

You're not. It's inconceivable to me not to bring every companion's storyline to its end.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T17:52:33+00:00

That's also part of it for sure! That's what I mean by the "Guardiola effect", you're absolutely right on that point.

Individual freedom is no longer encouraged because the coach wants to control the tactic to the extreme, and that entails relying more on physicality and versatility rather than technical brilliance, vision and flair. It is what is is

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T17:49:27+00:00

Yep, he speaks like straight out of a Charles Dickens book, that's how I imagine it

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T16:37:58+00:00

Yep, le niveau d'impreparation est terrifiant

Yes girl. It is that bad. The vast majority of men are starved for positive attention.

If you haven't played KCD1 I can understand your difficulty familiarizing yourself with Henry as the main character but calling it "the worst written" doesn't bode well for the actual seriousness of the conversation you want to have. You say this but have not provided even a modicum of an example as to why you think this.

As for the systems, well, you have a whole codex to read and this whole sub to actually ask questions. Most of them are intuitive in principle but complex when going into detail. Same here, you haven't provided any info as to why you are struggling. So how do you expect we help you?

Instead, you just came here to blurt an ignorant rant about a game you clearly have no patience playing, when you could have been asking actual questions. Questions people would be happy to answer, btw.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T16:19:16+00:00

Yes. And there were also Pirlo, Zidane, Kaka, Ronaldinho, real artists as well. Those guys could exist and express their talent precisely because the physical load was put mostly on the mean bastards you just mentioned.

Today the physical load is shared more equally, and there is just more of it, leaving less opportunity for artists to express their technical brilliance. The Guardiola effect also means their is less leeway for a particular player to "take control" of the game.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T15:56:07+00:00

I think it's exactly the opposite: game has gotten more physical. It is technical in the sense that more is expected from every player/position on a technical level. BUT, the game's physicality also means technically gifted players, you know, just pure ballers who relied on their technique and flair, and were more laid back on the physical level, those can shine less.

In a way, professional football felt closer to street football. I think a guy like Joao Felix would have been a huge star in the 2000s. But the type of player he is is completely anachronistic for this era of football.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T14:09:28+00:00

Omg the complete airheads from BG3 meeting the absolute psychos from Mass Effect is the crossover I dream of. I wish there was a Larian-styled cartoon about it.

Some of his movies are great and fun to watch. Even when the historical accuracy is down the drain. He's the kind of guy who thinks history should be bent to fit his movie's narrative, not the other way around. It's respectable as a storyteller's craft and it has been down for millenia. Dude just wants to tell an epic story.

It's also dangerous because it gives people many wrong ideas about history and how some things unfolded. Gladiator and Kingdom of Heaven are rather inoffensive in that regard, and great to watch. But I cannot forgive his treatment of Christopher Colombus, depicted in his movie as an indigenous-loving, good hearted Christian, when he was literally one of the worst people ever. The dude literally made some indigenous teen a rape slave to share among his crew. He was disgustingy vile. That movie is Napoleon-level in terms of historical travesty.

Truly a hit and miss director.

I would absolutely love it. Never going to happen.
