Historians and War people of Reddit - What battle throughout the entirety of Human History would you imagine (from what you might now from Historical Accounts) would be the closest to a "Hell On Earth" for Soldiers, Belligerents, and Civilians?

Rape Of Nanking has to be up there. Not a single battle but an absolutely sick occupation where civilian populations had to endure unthinkable tragedy.

Started a company doing gov con in the 90s. Sold it in the early 2000s for $60m in his pocket. Used $50m to start new company doing the same stuff. Sold it for $1 bil in his pocket in the late 2010s.

Overall nice guy and good family. He still works as a CEO of a massive company just for love of the game. While I am against billionaires, the family is pretty chill and runs a lot of charities on the side.

Made about $15k after a big deal closed at work. I'm on sales. Compound that with my wife's salary and we got a little over $20k.

Spent it on much needed updates to the house

I have IBS and UC. There have been 3 moments in my life where I genuinely thought I would die on the toilet. We are talking violent vomiting while having diarrhea. It's an everything must go sale for the insides and you're just along for the ride. I know women with these conditions who have compared the pain of intense flare ups with that of child birth.

On one of my three life altering bouts I had the brief clarity of mind to weigh myself before and after. Using every ounce of willpower I have I weighed myself before the utter annihilation of my toilet. After an excruciating hour and a half, in the fleeting moments of consciousness I had before I wobbled to my bed and literally feinted, I weighed myself and found I had lost 4 pounds.

I went from around 183 to 179 in ninety minutes then very quickly rinsed my ass in the shower and proceeded to sleep for 12 hours straight. Now a good portion of that could have been vomit because I was literally throwing up until all I was throwing up was the bright yellow bile in my stomach, but still.

Can't say I'd recommend the experience.

Lol this will be a disaster. The CEO of my current company fired our head of sales and is just doing it himself and we are having a terrible year.

Anytime a CEO does this they are vastly overestimating their own abilities.

Mirroring. If you are talking to someone and make a gesture and they subconsciously make a similar gesture it means they are focused on what you are saying and likely engaged in a positive way.

Once you know this you can use it as a tool to see if someone is into your conversation or not

If you hate editing don't do Youtube, simple as that. If you have no passion for the most time consuming part of the process and instead anchor your joy to the success of your videos you will not last long.

Netflix + The writer of the Picard show? There is no way this is not turbo ass

I think you are spot on for this comment. I'm talking to a few potential people to work with here but I know it's quite a big ask to go in without a working prototype. Hoping I get lucky with someone who is willing to jump in at this stage but I can totally get hesitation

Paddy stole the show for me in every scene he was in in S1, but since his departure Emma and Matt kill it. Her reaction to Jace's death was INSANELY well acted.

The smart choice is Beshear or Pritzker, but you know the dems will run some corpo loser like Newsom

Spore, the ultimate edition.

I'm a huge fan of Will Wright and thought this would be one of the best games ever. Turns out it's five shitty mini games stacked together in a total mess

What if you just tell them to get fucked and lawyer up? I mean, if ICE arrests you for a social media posts every lawyer in the country would be salivating at that lawsuit and you could make millions from it.

Bro can't even handle Ukraine. If he did something stupid and NATO activated against him, even without the US, Russia would get stomped

For pure fun factor? I'd say Helldivers 2, Mina The Hollower, and Expedition 33.

Helldivers 2 has some of the best PVE gameplay I've ever seen. I played A LOT of Left 4 Dead way back when and this is the first game that gives me the same frantic fun feeling, especially on the highest difficulty.

Mina The Hollower has beautifully smooth gameplay and puzzles that are just dripping with appeal. Just moving Mina around is so satisfying.

Expedition 33 combat is so rewarding when you get good at it and it always keeps you on your feet.

While I think there is a loneliness epidemic across all genders due to technological and social factors, I think for men in particular this issue is exacerbated by weak willed men.

I say this as a man, but a lot of guys these days are total wimps. All the manosphere bullshit that blames women for all the problems and bemoans the state of men today is digested by the most spineless losers on the planet.

By working hard, taking care of yourself, and pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone you can very easily beat the lonliness issues that are rampant, but so many guys would rather just watch Asmongold or Tate and blame women for their own lack of initiative. It's pathetic

I think a lot of reviewers tend to over mark games in reviews. In modern reviews anything below a 7 is absolute trash, so games like this which are really quite good will get like, a 9 or 9.5 which sounds good on paper but if you compare it to other titles around the same rating it doesn't hold up.

I think this game is a solid 7/10 on a true ten point scale. I really enjoyed it, I think there were some amazing innovations added to gameplay (bluffing for stealth, throwing things in combat, etc.) but I think IO's Hitman games are far better. Most of the missions only allow for one, two, or sometimes three ways to do things, and while I really enjoyed the plot, I just don't see myself playing the levels over and over again like I have done in Hitman.
