I didn't mean to say Fo4 was better than Ow2. I said a game hasn't consumed so much of my time like Ow2 has since I played Fo4. Fo4 had a ton of issues, not only technical ones. The story had so many plot holes it would be hard to even call it a cohesive story. Yet, I'm a big fan of the franchise so I kept playing it while trying my best to ignore those issues. Ow2 doesn't really have any serious story/writing problems except for the Initiate Alva quest. (you're supposed to investigate and prove innocence but you find absolutely nothing that identifies the actual person who did the bad stuff and yet the quest just points a finger at someone no questions asked) - thought that was pretty badly set up, but aside from that. Yeah, from a story perspective, Ow2 is leaps and bounds better than Fo4.

https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/09/world/americas/trump-greenland-annex.html The rape jokes write themselves with that phrasing. https://today.yougov.com/topics/travel/survey-results/daily/2026/01/07/85f9f/3 Surprised at the number on that poll, for what it's worth, was expecting at least 40% to not care or be ok with it.

our best friend half joking keeps telling us to avoid home depot for the foreseeable future OST Seeks Answers After Tribal Members Taken Into ICE Custody she might have a point considering our post retirement wardrobe makes it appear as if we raided john fetterman's closet. HA! Good Fun!

ice are now shooting more people obviously the lack of consequence had embolden them guess there will be more than 1 shooting per day from now on

It certainly wasn't the actual reason for using Oreshnik. However, that definition of 'everyone' also agreed that Russia blew up Nordstream. Which, now, pretty much everyone agrees wasn't Russia. A pretty large proportion of that 'everyone' also decided that Russia blew up the Kerch Bridge as a false flag as well, which also wasn't Russia. (As per usual there was a certain amount of hilarity watching media report Zelensky's "may he perish" Christmas speech; then a few days later acting as if Zelensky trying to hit a Putin residence was just unthinkable. Gold fish have longer memories)

Maybe, would have expected it now. Definitely would get a kick out of that though.

am not doubting doxxing is a genuine concern for federal law enforcement, but such has been an issue for all kinda cops for years. cops got a license to use force ordinary citizens do not possess. seems like an issue where we reasonable weigh the possible harms, yes? am admitted a teeny bit surprised just how passive the freedom loving and gadsen flag waving folks has been as fed cops in dark glasses and masks has become the norm. yeah, am getting that with the current polarization in the country, as long as the feds are attacking them (minorities, non south african foreigners, libs) as opposed to us, (white christian nationalists) then any possible hypocrisy accusation or shame is nullified, but we nevertheless thought a few more o' the don't tread on me people would be worried about what happens when the libs got power and began erecting their fema concentration camps targeting god-fearing americans. ... not joking about the fema camps thing. serious, do a search: alt-right, conspiracy, fema, concentration camps. but shame is dead, or dying. the internet provides anonymity to d-bags who wish to say things they would hesitate to utter aloud in public. cops who might otherwise hesitate to twist-up an abuelita 'cause o' fear somebody could be filming them is gonna be less restrained when wearing a mask. doxxing is a newish and real concern for law enforcement and am not completely numb to the fact the cop job, as difficult as it is, has become increasing hard 'cause who wants the aggravation? selective edited video could make saint francis appear to be a psychopathic animal molester. most cops cop get paid pretty well, but they also need take a whole lotta abuse and 'cause firearms is so widely accessible to the american population, the stress o' the job is rare worth the money. everybody expects cops to be superheroes who will run into oncoming fire to protect and serve, and given the nature o' the job, chances are high that if they make a mistake, somebody is gonna get hurt... and maybe even dead. unlike some, we don't expect every cop to be a highly trained sooper soldier with lighting fast processing skills and fantasy hero courage. at the same time, 'cause cops is authorized to use force on Gromnir if they got probable cause (recently a fed judge revealed that far too many dhs officers and leadership were under a mistaken belief that reasonable suspicion were enough to trigger use o' force,) am thinking it is not too much to ask that they is denied the faceless anonymity o' an internet troll. shame is not necessarily a bad thing... and am not just saying that 'cause we were raised catholic. HA! Good Fun! ps a weird auto-correct of "weigh"

we often get thickened soup with a surfeit o' bones, but am admitting this last iteration were... unique. we could slide our soup outta the container and cut off slices as needed. heck, am suspecting that with a transparent straw driven in the center, we could sculpt a venus de milo analogue outta the mass and it would retain its shape... although with the greenish-yellow hue and bits o' animal and vegetable matter it would be a venus + toxic avenger kinda monstrosity. maybe something to think about for next halloween. as an aside, am knowing we mentioned once or twice, and am suspecting shady were already keen aware, but for others reading, powdered gelatin will replicate the thickening and moisture retaining properties o' bones or veal. gelatin is fantastic stuff. the collagen from veal which keeps your meatloaf or meatballs tender may be included via a bit o' gelatin powder sans the veal. in fact, nowadays we never use veal for squeamish reasons, and gelatin makes us feel the loss almost not at all. also, instead o' thickening a stew with cornstarch, potato starch or flour, it is possible to achieve similar results with gelatin... although you gotta add the gelatin earlier in the cooking process than you would flour, so it takes a smidge more practice to get the quantity just right. part o' the problem with reducing a liquid is that as you cook off liquid, you are also cooking out flavour... the more wonderful is the cooking aromas in your home when making a stew, the greater (if still small) the tragedy 'cause all that beautiful smell is escaped flavour. 'course you are also concentrating the flavour by reducing, so... in any event, instant pot and gelatin is nifty options for keeping the flavour in a dish which ordinarily requires long cooking times and/or significant reductions. bone broth umami won't be replicated by gelatin, but in some instances you won't need the extra meat flavour. HA! Good Fun!

Hi Creators of Grounded 2, I mentioned some feedback earlier but I forgot about one extra bug fix that the games needs is How the floor is glichy and I tend to get under the map quite often. Just thpught I'd leave this feedback as well due to what I already wrote to you guys.

that would be very post internet way to look at the situation ss should have all been arrested and punished post ww2 but instead france recruit them to help suppress their colony because they have so much experience stamping down dissent at this point one should assume same will happen to ice when this regime they serve fall someone else will use them to perform more atrocity

yeah. am having reflected on this more than once. in ye goode olde days (maybe twelve years past?) if a politician said something objective wrong before facts were known, there were consequences as all major news outlets would lambast the yutz for his/her stoopid. political foes would seize on such a moment and even political allies would seek to distance themselves from the wrongdoer. sadly, in the post algorithm age, getting out in front o' the narrative with the most extreme take possible is how you get views and go viral. the speaker reveals self as alternatively clownish (ignorant) or sinister (mendacious) but those is ephemeral flaws which will disappear when the next viral take grabs the national attention. worst is that kinda mentality has filtered down so that we see as increasing normal behavior amongst ordinary people ands not just politicians and media personalities. have linked previous. the two we share here is the offerings which show how much has changed as 'posed to remaining the same 'cause is specific dealing with politicians dealing with press. gotta politician saying he would never lie to the press 'cause doing so always turns out bad... and most o' the people, some o' the biggest brains in america in 1989, is nodding their heads in agreement? feels positively surreal, no? @Zoraptor actually, the last example we specific highlighted were your purposeful gaslighting about the time-frame for iran to build a nuclear weapon. recall when you selecta-quoted Gromnir, cnn and others as you fumbled repeatedly to make coherent sense outta an original bad take? what you are describing with your gaslighting on the cognitive test is not actual the same is it? is hardly a rush to frame a narrative before evidence is available as much as you wanna smash a round peg into a square hole. after all, 2017 were the cognitive test zor misremembers as trump distancing himself from not-yet-candidate biden... so, hardly the same. our pointing out that 2017 is a long time remote and we still don't have reliable reasons for the test being administered is so not same as a few o' the clowns making up facts to fit a preconceived narrative regarding contemporaneous events. heck, am the only guy in that linked exchange who shared the insights o' actual experts. but you keep pluggin' away little fella. eventual, if only by accident, you might trip over a valid argument instead o' repeated stepping on rakes. aside, who in their right mind boasts about remembering "person woman, man, camera, tv," ff to 11:45ish we still don't know why trump doctors keep giving trump the cognitive test no other President has received... and again, zor's biden excuse is pure fantasy as biden weren't running for office when trump were first tested, and it sure seems unlikely trump is measuring himself against biden in 2025. typical wacky stuff from triggered zor. thanks. edit: "Last line from my previous post still applies, I'm not going to bother arguing with you so no need for a thesis length word soup (yep, not just Trumpists used the technique) reply." am not thinking we need to point out how funny it were zor had to add this... after his triggering. another rake. *chuckle* HA! Good Fun!

Considering how poorly maintained some of the US government databases have been, I would not be surprised if all the ICE agent's personal data is already in sale in darker corners of the internet. And when public hatred towards official rise there is always those who see it as opportunity make fame and publish data from one of the many data breaches in past.

Doing my first playthrough of Avowed, and I decided overall my character is loyal to Aedyr and is willing to cooperate with the Steel Garrote, but I feel like there's literally no nuanced options in that regard. All the "I just want people to know there's at least ONE good Aedyrin" or "We're not ALL bad" options just keep making me roll my eyes. I get this isn't a Pillars of Eternity style game, but still, it's a little off putting to have a game set in the World of Eora where the dialogue just feels so lame and without nuance at all, especially considering your character's background. It seems normal they'd be loyal to Aedyr and the Emporer, and heck, even Woedica. So why are you constantly preached at for choosing such options? Do better Obsidian, I feel like you're letting real life politics sway your story writing and making Aedyr off to be like the USA or some crap. It's annoying.

Hi Creators, of Grounded 2 I just thought it'd be good to give some feedback based on Grouded 2 game. I wondered if Before full release if there will be bug gixes possibly if the future? But anyways heres a few input. One is, Not make the pets or aka the Ants and Spiders pets in other words attack while looting. Another is a BIG major servers fix Me and my Friend get kicked out repeatly every day for a while now. (Also please keep in mind I also dont know if anyone is working on this or any of the list either) And to fix bugs in game such as vroken water droplets on the grass, etc etc. Also keeping the pets from travelling too far while off of them and just wanting to do their own thing meanwhile trying to call them they ignore it sometimes. Mostly to pick a fight as well. But for now thats as far as I'm thinking of at the moment I'm also wondering if there can of will be a Bug Fix before full release? I been playing constantly though. Thank you just thought I'd leave some helpful feedback but been playing the game for awhile and I still love it when no issues are going on but Mostly servers kicks get old though.

Also experiencing this bug with the end of Tristan’s quest line. I’ve tried everything. He asked that we talk back and the ship but I cannot get the conversation to activate. I literally stopped playing because I’ve run out of things to do before advancing the main quest beyond the point of no return.

What does that matter these days

"The strikes came in response to a December attack on the residence of Russian leader Vladimir Putin, which Russia blamed on Ukraine." I thought everyone agreed already this never actually happened.

Yeah, but just envisioning a mass doxxing. Would be amusing

https://www.lemonde.fr/en/international/article/2026/01/09/russia-hit-ukraine-using-hypersonic-oreschnik-missile_6749241_4.html Poor headline aside.

The shooter himself is already thoroughly doxxed. lol. Yes, the last one you highlighted was someone- well, you- speculating without any hard evidence about Trump having dementia. Y'know, him taking a test was evidence he had it. And when was his first test again... like, 8 years ago, for a progressive disease... Funny how there was no need to avoid rush to judgement and wait for all the evidence to be in there, eh. Could it possibly be because that was your speculative conclusion. Last line from my previous post still applies, I'm not going to bother arguing with you so no need for a thesis length word soup (yep, not just Trumpists used the technique) reply.

I'm sure you can appreciate the sad irony for your eternal refrain of waiting for the full story to come out against the actual legal reality requiring that someone speak as soon as humanly possible if they want to safely tell lies or drive an agenda...

The ICE commando was filming, video there will probably lead to it being ruled as justified I suspect. These ICE guys aren't the brightest though, who walks in front of a car and they also seem bent out of shape due to the women jawing at them. Wonder if they get doxed if the Dems take 2028.

I made a few delicious Jell-o soups before because of too many bones, and I always thought they were great too. Wife occasionally likes (for me) to make aspics, so I guess it all kind of fits.
