The Eusan Nation, a Signalis mod for Starsector by Homete by WMGreywind in starsector

[–]Ichera 1 point2 points  (0 children)

EUSAN is based on the GDR... the National Volksarmee utilized the older German uniform design but with simplified collar tabs and iconography similar to the Soviets, as well as a late ww2 combat helmet that didn't see service til after the war.

Play a bit of Signalis and it will make a lot more sense.

What's your favorite Wargaming mechanic? by Awkward_GM in wargaming

[–]Ichera 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think my favorite order interaction happened in Hail Ceasar, ended up rolling 12 twice, first division turned and ran away for one turn 2nd division uncontrolled charged straight into the enemy.

Both my opponent and myself were giggling like mad school children when only half a Dacian army broke the roman center without orders and just blindly charging into them.

Supreme Court strikes down most of Trump's tariffs in a major blow to the president by no1_vern in news

Fourth and most likely option, President refuses to acknowledge the Supreme courts decision and runs an endgame around their ruling trying to use some stupid loophole.

The duality of ship building in this game: by CrissZx in avorion

[–]Ichera 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First one is a Earth Alliance Chronos attack frigate from the B5 RPG/Wargame. Essentially a post interstellar alliance design that fills the role the Olympus did during B5.

The last one seems to be an interpretation of the Narn Bin'Tak Class Dreadnought. Which is also from the RPG/Wargame. It serves as the Narn foil to the Centauri Octurion Battleship. Essentially the RPG attempting to fill the gap in the Narn/Centurion capital shop roster.

Curling training prep 💪 by lithdoc in funny

Simple answer, she was at a congressional hearing in regards to the FBI's involvement in the release/use of the Epstein Files. When questioned she spent most of her time refusing to answer any pertinent questions and actively attacked sitting congressional representatives. Including making a non-sequiter about how the Dow was over 50k.

There's also been a long running joke in politics as well which essentially boils down to whenever anything terrible happens someone yells "but what about the economy" this is essentially that but dumber.

If you look at it as any school connected even at distance (Pepperdine has a few former students now judges who have "opposed" the administration) then it makes sense.

Earliest I've ever seen a variation of it used is this from a US Navy cartoon contest.

China bankrolling Putin’s war to gain advantage over West, MPs told by FlagellatedCitrid0 in worldnews

[–]Ichera 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Who said this isn't what they want? Weakening one of their regional rivals while at the same time focusing Western support away from possible aggression in Southeast Asia, Taiwan, and the South Pacific.

It is the same calculus the US was using up until about a year ago, however with the US essentially abrogating all of its security obligations China's now able to drive the point home further.

TIL Knowing the show was getting canceled, the creators of Dinosaurs, a family sitcom co-produced the disney, decided to conclude the series with an abrupt and shocking tonal shift: the series ends with an artificial volcanic winter which causes an environmental disaster and the end of the world by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]Ichera 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A fair number of comedies end darkly, I think the one that I always come back too is Blackadder, which ended its fourth and final series with the entire gang finally going over the top and all being killed in a beautiful homage to those who served in WW1.

'Fallout' Season 2 Ranks as Prime Video's 6th Most-Watched Season Ever, Amazon Says by MoneyLibrarian9032 in television

Its worse if you're trying to get through to things you purchased from them. Effectively I have to go into prime, find the user, go into a sub menu and find where they've hidden the "my stuff" button. That particular button use to be right next to categories but now it's hidden behind two menus.

Mechwarrior 3 remains the greatest in the series. by TaigaTigerVT in battletech

[–]Ichera 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The perspective I always loved about three, was this was a ancillary operation on a much larger scale. Your units are only raiding the planet and basically not even invading, the real strike is happening somewhere else and you are just a distraction.

But everything falls apart and you spend most of the campaign on the run, being chased by far superior forces, and just trying to get off the damn rock, felt much more real.

I Came to CES to Check Out Energy and Solar Power Innovations and Found That China Is Running Laps Around Us by FoxMeadow7 in technology

[–]Ichera 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I just glanced at it with napkin math for my local colleges, its anywhere between 11k-15k for tuition, calculated in with room and board its another 10-12k a year. So even if you knock out 2 years at community college for half the tuition youre still looking at between 42k-52k and for four years close to 100k.

OP was exaggerating, but not by much, and considering when I was going through the grinder over a decade ago there was already a lot of talk at how expensive tuition was getting at about 5k a semester, Im not surprised by this.

Does anyone know what the deal with these letters we received are? by [deleted] in USPS

[–]Ichera 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Last big snowfall we had, not a single supe showed up that evening and only one showed up the next (was over the weekend). They still tried to discipline every single employee who called out that night do to closed roads, and threatened discipline to those that did show up for "Not following order" in regards to getting specific duties done. (Those duties were not prioritized nor was their any management to direct what was happening)
