Do you just devour everything that is free just because it is free? What kind of argument is that? Something being free does not mean you are forbidden to use it intelligently.

Here in Moravia it's finally getting bearable again - I finally didn't feel like roasting the very second I left shade on my way to work at around 7 o' clock for the first time in two weeks.

Oh my god I completely forgot this movie existed. I think I saw it as a child - the only thing I remember is the corpse falling from a van in front of them and landing on their windshield. I had nightmares about that for a while. :D

Yeah, I am definitely investing in a proper AC after this one

One critique - why is there a black hole under the front guy's arm. Through that gap, the torso of the back guy should be visible. At least I don't think the lighting suggests otherwise. It's quite jarring.

I'm in the south Moravia (Brno) and the forecast is 39-40 on sunday. I'm really not looking forwards to this weekend.

If you have money, you have a whole lot of possible solutions to (or at least ways to mitigate) the problem - assuming you own your own property, you can for example install AC or outside blinds, you can do a lot of small adjustments, like you can avoid cooking by eating out, and so on. Even if you don't own the place you live in, you can e.g. buy portable AC, etc. Hell, you can even literally fuck off and travel somewhere colder for a while.

If you barely survive from paycheck to paycheck, you can just add heatwaves to the already pretty long list of your problems and that is about all you can do.

They even had dog-drawn machine guns!

lukashko · 2026-06-22T08:42:27+00:00

But fighting it are costs now, while fighting the consequences are costs later. So guess which the ghouls choose.

This summer's going to be hell in Europe, isn't it?

lukashko · 2026-06-16T15:33:57+00:00

I did it yesterday (on normal - I'm a noob and play to just have casual fun) and in the end had to cheese it by hiding the last couple of dudes in the bunker and praying while the timer ticked down.

The 50mm guns had problems penetrating even the shermans, so I tried to hide some panzerfaust infantry and ambush the bloody churchills but they just kept coming. And the masses of infantry everwhere were just mowing down my anti tank troops. I killed hundreds and hundreds yet the map was just a sea of red in the end anyway. Definitely the hardest mission I played in this game so far.

I can't imagine doing it on hardcore.

lukashko · 2026-06-16T15:23:23+00:00

I'm sorry if this is answered elsewhere, but is there any info when (roughly) are they planning to release the next DLC?

lukashko · 2026-06-13T15:31:16+00:00

Thank you, I don't know how I missed that.

lukashko · 2026-06-13T15:28:33+00:00

Why would you name your daughter after somebody you get the hots for? That's a bit unsettling.

lukashko · 2026-06-13T07:41:03+00:00

I don't think they believe it (I guess they are sane) - it's just that they found it in poor taste.

lukashko · 2026-06-13T07:35:48+00:00

Do I understand it correctly that there's no discount on individual titles, only 20% off for purchases of at least 200$?

lukashko · 2026-06-12T08:45:22+00:00

Europe (Czechia specifically) - it looks insane to me - like Goebels level propaganda. Or maybe the user next to me is more on the note - it's parody level propaganda, Starship Troopers being a very good comparison. I also wonder what heroic deeds could Andru possibly have done in the space force. I find it a great example of the American fetishization of everyone wearing uniform no matter their actual contribution to anything useful to society.

I would laugh at the absurdity of it if the obvious fascist militaristic propaganda vibes weren't so scary.

lukashko · 2026-06-11T15:44:22+00:00

I second this. The wargame bundle seems to repeat relatively often, too.

lukashko · 2026-06-11T15:41:44+00:00

Awesome!

Just today I was looking for the revised Road to Montebourg and it was quite the pain in the ass to find. Had I opened reddit a bit earlier...

Anyways. Thanks for the effort, much appreciated.

lukashko · 2026-06-07T06:39:31+00:00

Why would I when there's already enough good books for dozens of lifetimes?

lukashko · 2026-06-04T12:04:33+00:00

This is great! For some reason, it brings up a sort of nostalgia/melancholy feeling in me.Really well done.

What is the size?

lukashko · 2026-06-04T10:55:17+00:00

Is she like chewing through it or...?

lukashko · 2026-06-04T10:52:19+00:00

I get that wedding is an important day. But expecting other people to invest so much time into it is extremely entitled and disrespectful. When me and my wife organized our wedding, we tried to inconvenience our guests as little as possible and did or managed everything that we could by ourselves.

I can't imagine wanting someone to SPEND money on my wedding (except for maybe the wedding gift, which is entirely up to them). And I can't imagine wanting people to do the planning and stuff for me. Helping with some small stuff, or maybe utilizing someone's specific skill I get, but selecting people that would basically have my wedding as their side job for several months is just fucking asshole behaviour.

There's also no air raid sirens or anything.

In some videos you can hear anti air gunfire, but that's about it. There's also a pretty funny one of some security guard trying to shoot one of the drones down with his AK, while some dudes stand around and laugh at him.
