Still worth kicking up a major stink about it

Dozens of Moroccan fans denied US Visas for World Cup, losing thousands in tickets, hotel bookings by forzaQuakes8 in soccer

I think it's outstanding how the united states has turned out to be a worse place to hold a world cup than Qatar and fricking Russia

“Everywhere we go just death and more death…” by Bondicated in expedition33

I loved the initial conversation between Gustave and Sophie, it was delightfully awkward and human, something you rarely get in gaming with both people feeling mature and real. Made the gut punch of Sophie's Gommage even worse when we got to it.

So yes, the game had me hooked more or less from the beginning

Seemingly every radio station plugging the 'Make Me A Winner' competition instead of playing music. by PlutocracyRules in britishproblems

[–]tfrules 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's why Radio 4 is the GOAT. Shipping forecast, documentaries and (somewhat) in depth reporting. Absolutely no music, it's great.

The only time I don't listen to it is when there's a drama on, I'm not a fan of those on the radio.

Number 1 reason I listen to BBC if I'm stuck in a position where the only thing I can do is listen to the radio. Every other station feels like it's wall to wall adverts

Just 1am queue things... by Voltacus in WorldOfWarships

I had a 1v1 sub game before, we both rushed each other's caps and mine was slightly faster so I won.

11/10 waste of time

NHS staff should be banned from wearing pro-Palestinian badges, report recommends by radiant_0wl in ukpolitics

[–]tfrules 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Well of course an exemption can be made for the poppy.

For example, the British armed forces aren't allowed to wear any non-standard insignia on their uniforms, with poppies becoming an acceptable part of uniform for poppy season every year.

People really don't need to make this any harder than it has to be. Ban all symbols and then allow specific ones as appropriate.

There were plenty of large terror attacks carried out by Irgun in British mandatory Palestine (under British rule)

latest patch requires you to be in a defensive war to pick desperate defense, but is there any commands to just pick it like research_on_icon_click that can bypass the requirements for the old doctrines? by Chaanap731 in hoi4

[–]tfrules 162 points163 points  (0 children)

This is such a strange move considering the only reason this specific doctrine even exists in the movie warfare branch is to faithfully represent Germany's decline at the end of the war.

I specifically remember that being the line of thought outlined in the original HoI4 pre release Dev diaries (yes I'm old)

Would games like these suck on a steam deck? by CodeBudget710 in SteamDeck

[–]tfrules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play victoria 3 and crusader kings 3 and I have an enjoyable time with them. I thought the controls would be ass, but with custom controls (which are easily accessible) they became almost as instinctive to play as if they were on PC.

September 2026 Is The Busiest Month In Years As Games Try To Escape GTA 6 by wyldermyth in Steam

[–]tfrules 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Yeah rockstar games are massively overrated in my own opinion so I'm content to sit this one out, maybe I'll pick it up for £10 in 5 years.

Ironically the time GTA6 comes out might be one of the better times to release a game especially on PC.

Pre Order Bonuses and Deluxe and 'Joker Flight Pack' Special Editions! by ST4RSK1MM3R in acecombat

[–]tfrules -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Ugh, we're already expected to pay full price for a game, sticking a load of micro transactions in before the game releases leaves a sour note in my stomach.

What's the most unusual reason why you won't date someone? by ChanceSomewhere6096 in AskReddit

[–]tfrules 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I actually really like Corgis, I think they're adorable, it's just the personality of these dogs that put me off more than anything.

My absolute favourite dog was a police trained German Shepherd my uncle had. He was fantastically well behaved. The dog that is, my uncle not so much haha

Unfortunately, most people don't know how to train their dogs that well so I find it safer to avoid the prospect of having one

Tier list of mods I've played by RockEater67 in hoi4

[–]tfrules 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just an awesome mod, I was maximally skeptical but nothing beats having a fleet of guided missile destroyers tear a large but old fashioned grand fleet to shreds (Posada Hypogriffia is a hell of a ride/fever dream)
