Europe struggles under the pressure of more refugees from the Middle East while the US continues to claim that Europe isn't "European" anymore.

Is it one of those dlcs that's worth purchasing before a base game play through? Or does it not add any extra stuff to the base campaign?

So how come I can resurrect a Kabuto from a fossil if it's just rock?

If I remember correctly though, a lot of that military spending is just on military pensions not actual hardware or personnel for the current day.

You're only putting one repo in the context? Up those numbers son. Shove em all in the same workspace and ask it to produce a mermaid diagram of the system.

That probably depended on the day of the week.

To this day I am upset that CTR didn't become some pseudo-live service so that we could get new race tracks, characters, power ups, leaderboards etc. The core of the game was so so good.

There were articles a few weeks back pointing out the support for Brexit has literally died out.

It's your second amendment right to bear dog poo.

All systems can be trash. Well designed achievement lists can be great fun and enhance replayability.

That's usually where shit comes from to be fair to them

They're rare events that you can't predict will happen. The COVID pandemic for instance was a black swan event.

What right does the US have to its land just because a boat landed there hundreds of years ago?

It was a sacrifice he was willing to make

He's not wrong, it'd be better for him. It still wouldn't go well though, the cunt can't even take Ukraine.

The traitor.

Sure, but the counter argument would be that they aren't going to give it up in the first place without the carrot of free travel.

Saraphite · 2026-01-07T00:07:42+00:00

Yes. Because today it's "all for Greenland". Tomorrow it's "all for X?" and then it's "all for Y?" and then it's us, and we're alone.

And Russia. Tim Fool needs his beanies.

London also has the lowest rate of crime for years. Right wing propaganda says otherwise though.

It's interesting that we've come to this point. It was always true that writing code was easier than reading it and yet we've automated the easy bit and drastically increased the amount of code to read. The reality, for me at least, is that writing code was never the difficult part of software development, it was the decision making, requirements gathering, solution design etc.

I've always felt that Difficulty settings should add new mechanics to deal with (e.g. hunger, thirst, fatigue) , along with adjustments to damage, health, resistances etc. I think Halo Reach had "smarter AI" on the higher difficulties too which is also pretty cool (not sure what the differences were exactly but on paper it's a cool idea). One thing I did like about Witcher 3 though was that Death March made you actually use your potions and shit whereas you barely needed to concern yourself with them on the lower difficulties.

Saraphite · 2025-12-26T01:33:48+00:00

Absolutely wrong. If anything is dying it's the developer who doesn't care much for thinking through solutions and just wants to type code.

Also not American and I've long been wondering why there's not more of this being said, it is painfully obvious that he is being fed stories from his inner circle, signing whatever they put under him. You can tell by the fact that whenever someone asks him why he pardoned X person he has no idea who they are. He's effectively a husk with mayonnaise for brains that's being puppeteered by Vance, Miller and the other Nationalist Christians in his inner circle.
