Elden Ring: Just started Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. Yeah, I'm getting my butt kicked. Turok 1: Good ol' days, this thing is still fun! I am on world 6(The Lost Land) right now. The difficulty with enemies is getting higher and higher. Going for Turok 2 and 3 once I am done with 1.

Don Lemon arrested by federal authorities after protest at Minnesota church service Lemon was arrested by the FBI and Homeland Security Investigations in Beverly Hills at approximately midnight, according to a federal warrant issued in another district. Details of the charges against the four were not immediately available. However, the Justice Department promised to pursue charges against Lemon after the independent journalist covered the protest at a church in St. Paul on Jan. 18. A federal magistrate judge had previously rejected a criminal complaint against Lemon. A source familiar with the matter, described Bondi as “enraged” by the decision. ... am having no idea the mechanism used to arrest lemon and others, did the feds do as with sandwich guy and find a misdemeanor? did they appeal to a higher power on an emergency basis (unlikely)? did they successful convince a grand jury? trespassing charges woulda' made sense for the protesters who were already arrested, and am not sure if bondi tried that with lemon... after the fact. as with so much doj theatre, am s'posing is more about the arrest than the charges, but it will be interesting to see how they managed this seeming first amendment abuse. edit: am unsure if the following is real, 'cause is kinda daliesque HA! Good Fun!

I also noted that since the update, I have yet to get a raid attack. Before the update I had turned off the transmitters and did the MIXR, so I was super excited to know that with new transmitters we can get them back. I am on Xbox and even with the more recent update we are not getting raids. My friend who is playing with me, can't sleep because it says there is a raid incoming but nothing happens. I can sleep but he can not. I am hosting.

Good Day, We fought the Mysterious Stranger and grew the tree, then I found the last BURLG Chip E (I think it is E, its is the one from the pumpkin patch) and went to turn it in and was unable to do so because the game was acting like I didn't have it in my inventory. It is listed in my achievements. I am on XBOX and have the latest update that happened the next day after the winter drop.

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/don-lemon-in-custody-former-cnn-anchor-sources-say/ American Gov is openly corrupt and fascist and seemingly nothing can be done about it. But journalists get picked up instantly. Apparently the looks are still not bad enough for Americans to realize what's going on.

Wow, what a pain. I'm glad you finally got past it, though!

You are skeptical about loses confirmed by intelligence agencies, Russians, footage and satellite images, yet you take North Korean numbers at face value...

blessed darkness has a button now

Why would believe for a second that NK would be honest about its total deaths? It has a obvious interest in reporting its total deaths low because then the military operation was not only a success but only a "100 " soldiers died You can argue its not 4000 but that point cant be based on the evidence of a NK memorial, thats like saying " Iran is a peaceful country that respects human rights" because the Iranian state says that Also how did you count 100, I didnt see a single photo where you can see all the pictures? CSIS has released a new report on the war and they say Russia has had 1.2 million casualties but this link has other interesting analysis on the war so its worth a read Russia’s Grinding War in UkraineDespite claims of success in Ukraine, new CSIS data shows that Russia is paying an extraordinary price for minimal gains, with over 1.2 million casualties. Russia is also in decline as a major economi

CNBCTrump, two sons, Trump Org sue IRS, Treasury for $10 bill...The Miami federal court lawsuit says the IRS and Treasury failed to prevent the leak of Trumps tax records by former IRS employee Charles Littlejohn.****ing LOL.

FBI raid in Georgia highlights Trump's preoccupation with the 2020 election The FBI last week moved to replace its top agent in Atlanta, Paul W. Brown, according to people familiar with the matter who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a non-public personnel decision. It was not immediately clear why the move, which was not publicized by the FBI, was made. ... got no meaningful insights. is a whole lot about this situation which is out o' the ordinary: dni tulsi gabbard being present during the search, the named prosecutor for the warrant is the acting us attorney from missouri and not georgia, and o' the two fed statutes which got mention in the warrant, one is 'bout the requirement to retain election documents for 22 months following an election... the 2020 election, etc. am not having any idea what evidence the magistrate looked at to come to their determination. wsj has a story about tulsi involvement the part from the story which worries us is, "She is expected to prepare a report on her work, the people said. The administration has discussed executive orders on voting ahead of the midterm elections, two of the officials said." got a plan and are looking for an excuse to implement it? or maybe not. is a whole lotta unknowns save to recognize that fulton county's 2020 election were already investigated a bunch o' times without anybody finding intentional and widespread voter fraud. is there new evidence? if there is new evidence, why is tulsi the one involved, particularly as she personal dismantled the FMIC. is there any there there in fulton county? not enough info to make a meaningful call. HA! Good Fun!

... thanks for doubling down on our point. you don't care about honesty, facts, truth or maligning just about anybody, sans any kinda evidence. you blix all the time, and reflexively. it's your defining board characteristic. ... your post, with this query, "One might wonder why you bothered saying it as an option then, if you were so adamant about not doing it." was shared after our post. "you are the one clown am not gonna ignore anytime soon. even expressed our admitted wishful thinking that others begin verifying your source and fact checking when dealing with zor. why would we ignore you when you have provided us with multiple opportunities respond to and illuminate your misrepresentations since only the middle o' last year, and that is with us being in absentia for weeks and even a month at a time. we offered advice on how boardies should deal with you. ignore is indeed best, at least until you stop lying reflexive. converse, check all your claimed sources and experts. "doveryay, no proveryay "bad advice when dealing with zor. don't trust. " and lord knows you trying to lede and summary your way out o' your new "option" fumble is complete expected. "One might wonder why you bothered saying it as an option then, if you were so adamant about not doing it," doesn't change meaning if Gromnir only provided the recommendation to ignore you. your insistence that posting "option" signaled your awareness o' our "or" alternatives is unconvincing especial since when we read the entire sentence, it is clear you also missed our explanation for why we were not gonna ignore you anytime soon. there were no plausible "one might wonder why," when you made the query. duh... again maybe now you will try and convince us you didn't notice or didn't realize post placement 'cause you haven't really been paying attention... or that we got owned by you for following you down your "an option" rabbit hole o' nonsense? btw, no pahlavi in the headlines or "ledes" o' the first 60 stories for iran + protests produced by our search engine lazy effort. much embiggening, eh? HA! Good Fun!

The actual deaths for North Korea is likely around 100, since Kim opened a memorial for them. You can count how many pictures there are in the videos (though CNN doesn't, and repeats the claim of 4000 casualties). It's probably better than claims based on the Russians going out under fire to blowtorch dead koreans to hide numbers, which was an actual scenario proposed for the low apparent casualties compared to claimed. Oryx has the same problem that video footage has when assigning casualties: it has to be videoed/ pictured, and the Ukrainians are far more likely to do that. They also, well, aren't unbiased Missing is a category for Ukraine because there are a lot of people 'missing': it's cheaper than admitting that the people are dead, since dying in service elicits a payout. Ukraine itself admits to a bit less than 60k in that category (which is distinct from the two 'deserter' categories of AWOL and not reporting). Not like Russia is being 'nice' handing over bodies; it's returning corpses because they know it costs Ukraine a lot of money when they go from missing to confirmed dead.

Jesus, that's full of it even for you. I didn't see anything wrong with impugning the 'honour' of journalists for the reasons I stated- they'd consistently been wrong beforehand on Ukraine and other similar situations. Fact. You don't get much credit for a 1/6 accuracy rate, on that specific issue plus sundries for the denominator if you count the others, or at least you shouldn't. Indeed, one might think you'd get some flak for the 5/6+ times you were wrong. But apparently not. This is also a forum; I'm not blackballing them for the Pulitzer same as you aren't going to get the AMA or whoever it is to revoke the medical certificates or whatever of Trump's medical staff. The only reason I care about you questioning the integrity of those 'quacks' (most professional article writer evar! most convincing evidence evar!) is because of the hypocrisy, not because of some concept of their honour. Academics aren't likely to mind you quoting them, but they may well mildly dislike you hiding behind their opinions when you're wrong, if they learn about it. If they're good academics they probably don't much like their incorrect views being constantly defended past the point of absurdity when incorrect. But they especially might not like it if they knew you'd have claimed it as a win, if it had been one, and definitely would not have just posted it for academic interest to stimulate discussion or whatever you're now telling yourself under those circumstances. You spent pages and pages and pages over months and months defending that article- from multiple people-, after all, and only switched fullscale to the 'but muh Harvard Prof' after the six month prediction had conclusively elapsed. Your evidence based approach to Trump's health mostly amounts to vibes, like Trump taking dementia tests in and of itself being evidence he had dementia. Indeed, under your conditions he'd have had dementia for 8 years and through two presidential campaigns, since he started taking them in... 2018, wasn't it? As for the example of options... could you prove my point about you just randomly writing words to bore the other person any better? Your scenario/ example isn't equivalent and barely even makes sense. Did you perhaps think you'd posted that you'd never actually do it before saying it? Because you didn't, as I reminded you you said it after. I even quoted the relevant paragraph for you, same as when you said I didn't say it was option I quoted that I in fact did.

Some weirdness from the 80s

https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2026-01-29/ty-article/.premium/idf-accepts-gaza-health-ministry-estimate-of-over-70-000-palestinians-killed-in-the-war/0000019c-0918-dec4-adfd-fd5dde830000 "The IDF has accepted the estimate of the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry that approximately 71,000 Palestinians were killed during the Israel-Gaza war, noting that the number does not include missing residents who are potentially buried under rubble." Although I'm sure 80% will be combatants or "fighting age males" which will assuage anxieties on Blue Team.

So I have many hundreds of hours from grounded 1 to 2 and am wondering why the two most useful things from grounded 1 are not in grounded 2 yet? I am referring to the wheel mutation build swapping and the handy gnat for building. Anyone have any info as to why the mutation swap became so terrible now when it was super useful before?

I still grouse about how the first set ends. Started GW's next money grab. Ashes of the Imperium - start of the Scouring series.

I am experiencing the same issue, which is preventing me from finishing the game. I am not able to get rid of the bugged enemy under the world in Spireton. Please help!

Finished the second book and the story is getting better and better. Ended up buying the whole anthology. I guess I wasted 20 bucks, but still a lot cheaper then getting them all individually.

Again, no one is taking Zelensky numbers seriously. I'm taking visual confirmed numbers from Andrew Perpetua and Oryx seriously. And data from Russians like Strelkov, Vladimir Chirkin, Murz, Prigozhin, and Maxim Kalashnikov seriously, alongside analysts like Anders Puck. According to Oryx : Category Russian Losses (Confirmed) Ukrainian Losses (Confirmed) Ratio (RU:UA) Tanks ~3,000+ 1,386 ~2-3:1 IFVs ~5,000+ 1,532 ~3-4:1 APCs/MRAPs ~4,000+ 509+ ~4-8:1 Total Armor ~12,000-15,000+ ~5,500 ~3:1 And disagree about Obituaries. People that just get MIA or are not registered as dead by its officers wouldn't end in obituaries. To have a notion on how great Anders Puck is, look what he posted at January 2022. He not only predicted the invasion but also predicted maximalist objectives and that the war wouldn't go as RU predicted. Later, on the video "Russia's new forever war in Ukraine, 11MAR2022" he predicted a very long war. Russia has multiple times more manpower. Also has help from North Koreans, Cubans and many other allies. If Ukraine was not inflicting much more casualties, Russia would already have defeated Ukrainian army.

Not sure if anyone will see this but I’ll try anyway. I think these weapons would be a cool addition to the game: Flail - I think this could be very interesting because it could be blunt damage or if it has spikes, piercing damage. Would also be cool if it could extend and retract, giving you another range friendly melee weapon. Element infused power gauntlet - this idea can be expanded on but it would be a melee ranged elemental weapon. It’s a charged based small explosion weapon, pure sour damage or spicy damage or whatever element it is. Kind of like a shotgun. The staffs are cool but only ranged focused. Scythe change - I had an idea for the scythe that maybe you can’t block with it but in return, you get a different attack that could sap the life of bugs you kill. Or maybe an over shield or extra damage for a brief time. Launcher - this one is just more a fun thought but it would be like the fatman from Fallout and you would load it with the hand bombs you craft and you could add different elements and effects.

this has gone to a bizarre place. you cannot be serious. if the only option we had presented were ignoring you, your response o'," One might wonder why you bothered saying it as an option then, if you were so adamant about not doing it," would remain ridiculous seeing as how we fully answered that question BEFORE you asked it. but the fact you put the word "option" into the query would not have been perplexing to us in light o' the fact we supplied only one option. our singular recommendation would have indeed been "an option." duh. if we suggested that purchasing a huge life insurance plan and then indulging murder by cop was an excellent retirement plan for your family, you coulda responded exact the same way with, "One might wonder why you bothered saying it as an option then, if you were so adamant about not doing it," and if Gromnir had fixated on the word option, railing about how we had not presented an "or" alternative, we would look positive insane with that bit o' nonsensical deflection... and yet here we are, with zor playing the role o' the most obtuse person ever. you got a long history o' blixing, so... edit: zor's biggest reveal from the current bumbling response chain weren't his lazy reliance on an internet search population or his mendacity regarding ledes and summaries... which were just plain silly. nope, we let it slide at the time, 'cause we didn't want to go to a full on character evaluation, but since you is ok with it, "lol, the poor unfortunate journalists, it's their eternal good fortune that Gromnir is on the case to defend them from vile calumny on the Obsidian forums. Of course, works a bit less well when you've just thrown a Harvard Professor under the bus to avoid admitting you were wrong. And when you've accused Trump's medical staff of effectively lying about his health to prop up your speculation about it." you make clear that you honest don't see anything wrong with attributing bad intent to journalists, cops, soldiers, politicians or just about anybody else, regardless o' any evidence to support such claims. even when your claims is proved wrong, there is no remorse. am finding that sorta behaviour to be disquieting. academics is unlikely to mind if you quote them. observe how a professor predicted a likely currency collapse if drastic measures were not taken is not gonna enrage a typical academic, but am seeing how that might bother zor. converse, if we had claimed the professor had predicted a currency collapse if severe austerity measures were not taken, and the professor had actually opined that russia were never in any danger o' economic pain from sanctions coupled with the oil situation, then am thinking he would have cause for outrage. if we blixed him, calling the academic a liar when our own misrepresentation were revealed, then am thinking it would show a serious flaw in our character. and yeah, am suspicious o' the claims made by trump's doctors. seeing as how there has been questions about the truthfulness o' trump doctor claims since at least 2018, one wonders why zor is so credulous. regardless, doesn't look like we rushed this one either. am not perfect. no doubt am having proverbial jumped the gun more than once in spite o' our admonishments that doing so is wrong. am recalling that we accused rittenhouse (mention him as he is back in the news) o' taking a firearm across state lines when such was not the case. sure, we qualified that we hadn't been paying much attention to the trial, but we were wrong about the state line issue and we shoulda' self-educated more thorough before opening our gob on that point. our bad. we got all kinda character flaws; no argument. one reason we dislike trump so much is his constant lying. am not sure why in 2026 it is more important to have a viral take than to provide an honest and reflective response. lack o' fairness also triggers us more than it should. maybe we will work on such... maybe after we see zor ease up on the reflexive blixing? HA! Good Fun!
