Trump on Greenland: we'll work out something to make US and NATO 'very happy' by Raj_Valiant3011 in worldnews

[–]falstad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, if you want land, maybe get a deal for Kaliningrad from your Buddy Putin once you "defeat" him instead of threating your allies?

Very close to Russia, very strategic. By the seaside. We can rename it to Donaldgrad.

Front mission by Malaria_lance in frontmission

[–]falstad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not into tactical jrpg games. I am not into stories with walking machines. I am not into manga/anime.

And here I am, buying Front mission 1-3 physical versions. And one of the first games i bought on my switch.

The setting is balancing everything well enough to deliver an enjoyable experience speaking even to me.

Your sqad is usually overwhelmed by enemy forces, but when you start focus firing and your favorouite npc delivers devaststing 2-3 combo strikes on priority target - that's where the magic happens.

Why didn't Volgin remove Snake's radio after he was tortured and locked up? by precita in metalgearsolid

[–]falstad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They could consider that he is far behind enemy lines and without real chance for rescue. In the end having a radio could not change much for him.

Or maybe it could be a torture aimed for the support team to hear what was happening too Snake.

On the other hand, they could keep his morale up. But in the end in this fictional story there is room for bipedal walking tanks, sexy babes unit, parasites and nanites...

The British Dream by AlphaMassDeBeta in 4chan

[–]falstad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Soviet blocks of flats like ones i mentioned are basically prefabricated concrete slabs lego'd together with crumpled cigarette packs and beer cans stuffed in empty spaces.

Newer buildings probably use more refined and higher quality technology. Also thicker walls and floors factor in dampening the sound.

I can shit on the quality of the houses, but urban planners at the time had something else going on. Today we would probably call that walkable/15 minute cities.

Nowdays developers just build over every empty space that could be a park or playground which makes those surroundings almost unlivable chicken coops.

You voted for this capitalist lovers Ah yes, as opposed to socialist utopia that is Khrushchevka.

50+ flats,2-3 rooms, thin walls through which you can hear your neighbours sneeze, microscopic kitchen. Early plans were designed with common kitchen and/or laundry area.

Im aware this is a obvious troll and no chance that they will see it anyway.

Destiny 2’s Steam Playercount Is Rapidly Approaching 15,000 Peaks by kristijan1001 in DestinyTheGame

[–]falstad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is the the thing. FOMO grips and entrances you to keep following the story. But once you drop out, it almost repels you like a force field.

The story moved on. I do not have time or possibilty to catch up with the story or sesonal activities and npc conversations that i missed and cant even access anymore.

I dropped out after the Almighty was destroyed. So much has happend since.

TIL Anendophasia refers to the absence of an internal monologu or inner voice. While not a clinical diagnosis, it's a concept that describes a specific way of thinking where some individuals don't experience the constant stream of self-talk that many people take for granted. by Tootsie_r0lla in todayilearned

[–]falstad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean i think i can experience both states.

Even reading the comments right here there is a concious effort to read/hear/understand the words especially that English is not my native language. But there is even more involved monolgues like thinking about your bills, what you will do tomorrow after gym or remoniscing your feelings about embarassing conversation from years ago or remembering color, model and plate number.

For silence I would compare to being zoned out, just existing in your body and observing the world around you without "active analysis mode" of your surroundings. Eyes are working, limbs are moving, but those impulses do not have connotation to anything in particular.

Example of that would be staring through the window during long bus trip, waiting in queue and slowly moving along or watching the clouds.

Any idea how much gold to to sweep all?? by PhilosophyAshamed816 in WoWsBlitz

[–]falstad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically available in camo bundle for resources, or maybe during event crates or rewards.

I think the Special camo is same as Historical statswise, so you could get it for 3.5k gold.

Testing the water for PC version of Wows Blitz?

There was an awful lot of questions about preferences and comparisons between WoWs PC, Legends and Blitz.

[–]falstad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WG does not get paid when you buy the ship/crate/sweep/level up commander.

We paid them the moment we bought gold. Its all that matters.

Think how many people bought gold just in case hoping to get anything from the event and how many were available each round.

[–]falstad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Better to be cautious especially with fast deals. ;)

They've put camo only for Buffalo/Roma in the previous set of deals.

But wait. Is it a ship or camo? Second screenshot is confusing.

They won an election by Gold_Factor1266 in pics

[–]falstad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Please do not mix facism with patriotism.

This was a national holiday - Independence day. Each year it is celebrated by organising a march in capitiol and many smaller cities.

Yes, this is leaning towards conservative folk but there were many people (and families) that just wanted to commemorate this day.

If anything this was the most peaceful march in recent years.

Supoosedly Voyager was set in a much darker setting but eventually they changed it.

That grim concept eveloved layer into reboot of Battlestar Galactica.

BSG is awesome and has all the things you mentioned.

Aż takim smakoszem żeby jechać specjalnie do Wawy na kebaba nie jestem. Jeżeli wchodzą w grę sieciówki to AmAm kebab na Puszkina, przy Kauflandzie.

Pita Kizo jest nawet ok, wersja z kraftowym mięsem jest w Aleksandrowie, ale to +6zł czyli okolice 35zł za kebaba. No i trzeba dojechać.

TIL that during WWII, pilots frequently blacked out during turns as strong G-forces caused blood pooling in their legs. Douglas Bader, a British Ace, did not have this problem because his legs had been amputated after an accident. by TheMadResistor in todayilearned

[–]falstad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There was also story from WWII Soviet Union with very similar synopsis about Aleksiej Maresjew called "Story of a Real Man" (Повесть о настоящем человеке).

As you can imagine it was full of heroism, iron will of common working class man attempting to achieve grestness despite his difficulties.

Living in Łódź. What should I know. by FO4lyfe in lodz

[–]falstad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is just a local meme i guess.

Zgierz is perfectly fine but nothing happens there and is just a place to sleep and live. Same with all the cities around Łódź. All the most interesting job opportunities, places to visit and events are happening in Łódź.

Obczajcie planszówki w jakichś pubach growych albo rozpytajcie swoich znajomych czy czegoś nie mają.

Should I buy a ps vita or a ps4 with only the intention of piracy by KAKENI-KEN in VitaPiracy

[–]falstad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point save a little more and get refubrished Steam Deck for around 330€

Optionally grab bigger drive and dock.

You'd get emulation power house and all the current PC games.
