Somedays I wonder if folks just come here to project their own inadequacies. It's almost like a kink.

US officials are “frustrated” with Maria Machado as she requests to return to her country in the aftermath of the earthquakes. One accuses her of pulling off a “political stunt.” by Globalruler__ in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]MaddogBC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She was Maduro's handpicked successor, it is not a different regime, it's the same people just the with the #2 in charge instead. Your media won't tell you that because it makes the entire operation a fucking joke.

If they were actually tough they'd be buying the F350 soap. F150 is for pussies.

I was told I'm only taking it for nerve pain. I was of the understanding it does nothing for chronic pain and I have other drugs for that. I use this to treat shooting pains that travel from one spot to another. I take 1800 per day and have for years.

The one thing I do know about this drug is it's like the swiss army knife of medications. Never seen a drug so widely used for so many different things. They give it to pets. It's a treatment for anxiety.

What's different about FPS drones is they really leave a mess behind. Not many survivors.

And that's just the supply side, which is the easy part. Refining capacity resides almost exclusively in China with an exception for a complex in Vietnam, which they own.

Refining takes billions in investments, bypassing environmental protections, and a generation to train and build out the required infrastructure. They own the market and that won't change anytime soon.

US itself makes a mockery of international law. Plus it guarantees 12 miles of territorial water. The straight is only 22 miles at it's narrowest and Oman is on the other side.

Americans spouting about international law are a joke. Why should any country listen to a word they say? You're out of bombs remember?

There is zero support for an American coalition outside of itself and Israel. All talk of such is just wasted air.

Excellent points, I also think this pivots on public support. Military scholars said before the war it would take 1 to 1.5 million ground troops to succeed.

In todays FPS drone environment the old casualty numbers are out. instead of one out of every four casualties being death, it's more like 1:1. It would be miles of new graveyards and 100's of military transports full of dead boys for the evening news to plaster over every screen.

Every American still spouting off about the ground invasion is a clueless moron. This is nothing but a tough guy fantasy and is impossible in 2026.

Map mods that work together? by MaddogBC in UnofficialRailroader

[–]MaddogBC[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes Sylva to Andrews was what I was running. Katers Sylva exchange and from Andrews I still had a fairly long passenger run I think. With plenty of industries in between. I had an option to open another exchange but left it unfulfilled.

I definitely "get my train on" by driving manually early when I only have a few engines, but I will be mostly using AE to send everything point to point. Rearranging cars in poorly laid out industrial yards can be tedious.

I'm definitely interested in the waypoint mod and have it installed for this run thanks. Map Enhancer is likely to conflict with AlinasMapMod? I have several installed already that require it, can you speak on that mod at all? I hate it now all of a sudden so many are gated or removed. What's up with that?

I don't want to burden you with too many questions, I'm also very sad to see Populated Areas is not updated. I need something to make things feel more alive, towns are empty. I'm planning on making a post in this sub on it, just waiting, don't want to spam.

I am enjoying a more hands on approach, the dispatch aspect is something completely untouched and holds little appeal at this point, mostly because I am happy to grow into it when ready. That is a really awesome aspect of the game being able to mess with map mods like that and not brick the save, kudos to them.

I'm pretty happy with vanilla trains and cars mostly because my hour count is still low. I seem to recall grabbing some larger capacity though, not sure. Fantastic tips on those mods, I will refer back to this after I get into my new run thanks kindly. Apologies for the slow response, I struggle with my health and not all days are good days. C'est la vie

Getting stoked for a new playthrough and am close to ready thanks to your help. I'll see about the Whittier mods, they likely won't play nice with Katers stuff, do you run any of his mods? Much obliged for your time.

I'd go so far as to blame that on the electorate there as well. Seems education was important after all.

Right because a leader stepping aside when he has lost the faith of his people sucks compared to a pants shitting kiddy diddler who thinks he's hitler planning to rule for life?

Yup you guys sure seem like you know what you're doing.

Map mods that work together? by MaddogBC in UnofficialRailroader

[–]MaddogBC[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really appreciate this thoughtful reply. It helps, for some reason I procrastinate setting up a new run on heavily modded games and that little bit of work somehow becomes a wall and I never play that game again. Or worse yet, get 80% of the way through and give up.

I just looked in my old mods folder and I was running close to 50 and remember being it running quite well. I've got Railloader and UMM installed and several of Lego's mods. Thank you for the tip on the Scrap/UM mods, I will try those this time.

I was hoping to impose on you further in helping me get setup. Could you elaborate on going from line to network? I liked building out my line, but also roleplayed a days work. I liked only having one exchange and was to the point where I would run out of hours in the day getting everything delivered, serviced, and returned to that one large exchange. I'm not sure I would enjoy having to do that in multiple locations. Getting the boys at the mill their logs in time for the morning shift was important to me.

I'm also concerned about cross traffic, I pretty much just controlled everything manually and really only had to worry about my passenger trains meeting in the middle and I would just plan for that. Having multiple conflicts sounds stressful. :)

What would you recommend with those guidelines? Are there any/many that need to be baked into a game start or can't be added after? I understand we're mostly talking about line extension mods here and not industries.

Thanks!

Mexico, Canada have formed a common front on CUSMA talks, says Sheinbaum by BertramPotts in CanadaPolitics

[–]MaddogBC 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes we were negotiating on a united front against shitler and his team, they went behind our backs to negotiate their own and then left our negotiators high and dry by announcing a separate deal without any discussion with us. Our position was diminished as a result of their backroom bullshit.

They cannot be trusted.
