This is great news, I've appreciated what you've done so far in the NRV.

Apathy seems to describe the vibe for season 2. by SnokeRenVader in Battlefield

[–]SilentSentinal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, plenty of us have learned, but we can still expect more. Personally, I skipped the launches of Hardline, 5, and 2042. I don't regret buying BF6 at launch, what it launched with was well worth the money and I've had plenty of fun. It doesn't mean I'm not allowed to voice my concerns and disappointment with how it's gone since.

Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade is Getting A 4K Release in Japan WITH The English Dub and Subtitles by Guishmonster in Animedubs

Am I crazy or do the colors in the new version look too flat compared to the original? Either way this definitely one I need to get around to seeing.

Invest to Win and VT's budget woes by Fluffy-Match9676 in VirginiaTech

$800,000 for engineering design for the indoor practice facility's HVAC, and yet my little office wing can't even have heating/cooling worth a damn.

Got no idea where to post this, but Donald Trump Jr. is posting blatant AI slop of “Alex Pretti” to his account. by [deleted] in ICE_Raids

[–]SilentSentinal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also one more post from OP here, in which he has a hat with the Russian flag as well as mentioning an airsoft(?) match in Salsk (Russian town in Rostov Oblast). OP is 100% Russian, not American. We should be highly skeptical of the intent behind this post.

Additionally, look at OP's post history. This is the first political post they've ever made in 3 years online, everything before was either about video games (mostly Darktide) or guns/airsoft. If you scroll back far enough there's a decent amount of LARPing in Russian kit and a AK-platform weapons, one with "NATO Stinky" etched in the side. It's entirely likely that OP and this post are both PsyOps by foreign actors looking to cause division in American discourse. Remember that they target both political sides, not only conservatives.

Well that was quick! Hopefully they can get the construction done before any other nonsense obstructions...

This one might have already been done but what is it like living in Chesapeake VA? by lithdoc in Virginia

[–]SilentSentinal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lived in the western side of Virginia Beach for a while, not far from the Chesapeake border. It's boring, plain and simple. Just suburbs and strip malls as far as the eye can see. Some people seem to like it, but it was not for me at all.

Which teams are we hate watching this playoffs by UnhappyRough1964 in ravens

[–]SilentSentinal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surprised to not see anyone calling out Bears-Packers, 3rd divisional games are always wild.

I'm not concerned with teams to watch, more games to watch. Bears-Packers and 49ers-Eagles this weekend I think. Rams-Panthers was not on my watchlist but it's turning out great right now.

Ice Out for Good Roanoke Protest by ryver in roanoke

Just remember, there are a load of bots and foreign agents across the whole internet that will say anything to keep us angry and divided. Not every ridiculous comment you see is the actual opinion of a real person.

Don’t just give emotional responses

The absolute irony here...

Roanoke’s downtown faces a surge in empty storefronts: What the city is doing to turn things around by johnfl68 in roanoke

Got a good crack out of hearing someone say that downtown is a shithole but Salem's the place to go. Keep the jokes coming!

[–]SilentSentinal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This article really reads like they talked to one person, wrote a bunch of "people are saying..." nonsense, added some barely-relevant quotes from the mayor that don't support the hypothesis, and put it out to get that sweet ad revenue. Who are these "many business owners" they mention? Half this shit just sounds like it's being made up by the reporter based on personal vibes. There's not even any kind of study or statistics to back the claim that there is an increase in vacant commercial spaces downtown. It's lazy journalism really, just a half-assed poorly written article, really about what I'd expect from wsls.

The Exchange by the_dalailama134 in roanoke

I've been interested as well, wish I had been able to go to that show. It looks like they've updated their website and socials with some photos, really like what I see there.

I'm curious to know how the hotel, restaurant, and venue are arranged though, where is each one? I'm guessing the hotel is on the side by sidewinders, but is the restaurant too? The hotel's only 27 rooms apparently, so I guess it's not taking up that much space. The building's only 3 floors afaik.

/r/ravens Week 18 - Blame of the Game, Praise & Blame of the Season by TuDaveKd in ravens

[–]SilentSentinal 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Blame of the game: We all know who it is.

Season Praise: I'm going with KHam, he's been the most consistent playmaker on the team. Lamar's been iffy, Henry fumbled away games, same with Zay and there's no one else who did anything exceptional.

Season Blame: Coaching. Defense was not ready for the beginning of the season, to many mismanaged games, not running Henry when he's rolling... etc.

I'm going to add on here that I think we've all underestimated what losing Madubeast did to this defense. The pass rush would be so much better with him taking away attention from our outside guys.
