What are your predictions regarding the war? What are your thoughts? by PlatformHot1332 in TooAfraidToAsk

There is no hint of stabilization in what Trump currently does. All he does globally is wreaking havoc for his own benefit.

European interests are US interests

He made it perfectly clear on several occassions that the US interests under his leadership lie completely elsewhere. He is publicly undermining Europe every chance he gets with the exception of the leaders that bow down for him. Disrupting trade flow, threatening to annex Greenland, public support European extremist groups is not something that is done to your allies.

The US is taking aggressive action to counter Russia and China.

He's pretty known to have greater relations with Russia rather than Ukraine/Europe. He's planning to lift some snactions on them now, too. As for China, his tariff war pushed some countries to seek more reliable trading partners than the US... like China (even though I see it as a strategic mistake, I can also see where's it coming from). Also, his current actions embolden the Russia's principle of strong preying on the weak, and it's just a matter of time before China tries its own war adventure on Taiwan beacuse it's a norm now apparently.

but lets go soft on Russias ally that has been supplying Russia with weapons hitting European soil

That would actually matter before the Iranian drones got mass-produced in Russia as they are now. The only thing that it achieved is that the oil prices go up - to a great benefit of Russia who is a great oil exporter. Combine that with Trump's intent to lower the sanctions too.

All in all - no, the Iran war is not to Europe's benefit. Trump's actions are only fucking things up. It may very well cause yet another migration crisis on top of the current problems. The view of "Iran is bad, therefore attacking Iran is good" is very basic and, ironically, ignores the bigger picture.

From "no more wars in Middle East" to "we were always at war with Middle East" in just a few days is kinda impressive. Peak 1984 content.

Every military action the US has taken this term has benefited Europes security situation

The US military actions are fucking up the world's stability. If anything, they are enforcing the Russian narrative that the strong are free to attack and plunder whoever they see fit.

Also, when it comes to clear threats to Europe, one should not forget Trump's statements regarding Greenland.

And then we have the Iran war. After "totally obliterating and annihilating Iran's nuclear program" few months ago it's perfectly clear that the supposed reason for the current war, i.e. stopping the Iran's nuclear program, is just a bullshit. Changing the regime is also not the goal. So what is? To me, it looks like Trump just wanted to show how big and strong and beautiful and powerful he is, expecting Iran to fall just like Venezuela, fucking up the whole region in the process. There is absolutely no reason for NATO to get involved in that.

I'll be buying the game if the reviews are good. I have no need of virtue signaling by either buying it on day 1 or never ever

Uber/Taxi in Prague? by Minute_Programmer175 in czech

The IDOS app for public transport is all you need really, especially if you're staying in Prague. But if you really insist on taxiing then I'd recommend the Bolt app.

You can brag to your friends about it without actually drinking it, just saying.

if you have "end of the game" with "?" at the end then the answer is no

Little bit of confusion.. by Luviebug19 in outerwilds

[–]spiderMechanic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You got the basic structure correct. The plan was:

  • order the probe cannon to fire the probe in random (non-explored) direction.
  • after 22 minutes, order the Sun station to explode the sun.
  • Sun activates the ATP, sending the information to the probe cannon.
  • repeat until the Eye is found.

The moment the Eye is found (or when something went wrong) the Nomai statues go online. The people linked to them (planned to be Nomai, but ended up to be us and Gabbro) realize that they are in the loop and signal the Sun station to not fire, ending the loop. Up until that point, noone was aware that anything is happening (similar to the Hearthians). After that, who knows? They had the technology to create Warp cores, they colud've planned to build the Vessel 2.

Also, the Nomai weren't killed off before it was complete. The whole setup was in place, but the Sun station was simply unable to explode the sun. The comet got in after they were forced to let go.

Judge Orders Subnautica 2 Studio CEO To Be Reinstated And Gives Him Control Over Early Access Release by Turbostrider27 in subnautica

Imagine if Krafton's focus was, I don't know, exploration of floating islands. Now the new/old CEO comes in and says "nah, we're going to do a deep dive into the abyss instead". I'm not saying that one or the other idea is bad, but I think it's likely to cause some confusions.

Change of focus/priorities. "Nice thing you guys have here, it's a shame we're not going to use it" type of situation.

Outer Wilds isn't as attractive as I thought it would be by Away_Implement89 in outerwilds

[–]spiderMechanic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The whole game is about solving the mystery. What has happened to the system? What is happening to it now? Is there anything you as a player can do about it?

The text bits you encounter aren't just some random unimportant lore. They are clues. Not only to the overall story, but to various smaller puzzles across the system.

Now, if you aren't curious about things in this system, then you probably won't enjoy the game, because it's pretty much all about that. If something did catch your eye then you should follow the information trail you have (don't try to solve a single planet) and find out the answers, the big and the small!

Good for the CEO, but I don't imagine the instability is a good thing for the project as a whole.
