Considering how bad Trump's prose is it's amazing that his writing style isn't the most embarrassing thing about that, uh, missive. It isn't even the second most embarrassing. It's ten year old gets hold of the family AOL account and posts on usenet levels, and the ten year old has the excuse of being ten- and doesn't have access to US military.

This is what is known as a straw man argument. to whit: make up something you wish had been said, then argue against that. Ironically, that is a summary of pretty much every single one of your arguments, going back a decade. It's clear that those quotes were part of a summary. I'm not arguing with you, I'm stating a fact. As last time, I don't really have any patience to lose since I'm not putting any effort into arguing with you. I'm just telling you you're wrong.

After playing Grounded 2 for a while now and having completed all content available up to the Pumpkin Patch update (the most recent update; I will keep playing when new updates come out), I noticed a couple of additions which could greatly help Grounded 2 in the future. First is the Buggy Armor Welding Station. In this station, the player may craft different buggy armors which they can equip and unequip, each giving the buggy the respective upgrade (P.S. you can only swap buggy armors at the station). For example, with the new Ladybug Buggy, you could be able to switch between the current water reservoir, which does lots of stun to flying enemies, or you could, for example, switch it for armor with spikes so instead of being able to shoot, whatever attacks the buggy takes damage. I think there should be a couple of variations to this. First: The normal water cannon can be overcharged using a Spicy Candy or an Evercharcoal chunk. What this should do is halve the ammo due to the heat evaporating some of it; however, the water cannon has hugely improved shot speed and velocity due to the air pressure in the tank. Or maybe instead have a bigger tank of water which results in the buggy becoming slower at the trade-off of getting more ammo — Tier 2. Second: A flamethrower-style tank which sprays like a flamethrower, dealing Spicy damage and building up Sizzle very fast, with fast attack speed and very close range. Its main purpose would be to deal damage fast and build up Sizzle fast — Tier 3. Third: An acid cannon which shoots sticky Sour globs that slow down the enemy it hits along with applying Tang, and if hitting the ground, then creating a puddle which builds up Tang but slower (like a nerfed Rust Beetle) — Tier 3. Fourth: Having an ice beam-type attack which freezes enemies after shooting at them for some time, dealing Fresh damage — Tier 3. For the other buggies, there would be different upgrades depending on what they specialize in, for example: The Ant Buggy can swap between its current armor and a carriage which reduces run speed and prevents jumping; however, it can hold many planks at once. The Spider Buggy could get an upgrade to its speed, as I see it as more of a scouting buggy. So its upgrade should have added appendages to the end of the buggy's legs to make them bigger, and thus it goes faster while running, at the trade-off of it having low HP and attack damage. As for the composter, in the first game I never really used gardening much other than growing Muscle Sprouts for smoothies, so I believe they should add the pumpkin seeds to the growing pool so you can grow 4 seeds or something like that from the planters. Other than that, however, I believe they should add a new building called the Composter, in which you should be able to put food for it to not only spoil faster but to give you more compost materials to use when composting. Because currently you can use spoiled meat and rotten food, which either need to be left to go bad (spoiled meat) or need to be slowly extracted from foods like the hotdog, which only drop a couple at a time when broken. Maybe the compost could have recipes for specialized garden consumables like "Meat Compost," crafted from 2 spoiled meat, 1 rotten food, and 1 fertilizer, and when used it gives the plant (+35% green thumb chance and reduce growing time by 20%), this would help the current problem of gardening being so time consuming.

am gonna suggest that's the portion o' the letter which resonates most with hardcore maga. the maga movement has been so successful 'cause it channels outrage and grievance o' white americans, particular white and working class americans. is the folks living in rural america who feel as if they has been marginalized and ridiculed for decades while the libs talk about reparations for slavery and the "feminazis" push dei programs. their manufacturing jobs go to mexico, vietnam and china and all the libs wanna talk about is white privilege? now the real trick is that trump has managed to convince maga that his personal grievances is theirs. whenever trump is mocked for saying something ignorant, or he is investigated for business fraud, the ultimate motivation behind those efforts by the deep state and george soros to diminish trump is the destruction of maga. it's not 4d chess. as long as trump is channeling outrage and grievance, the maga base will cheer for him. HA! Good Fun!

Not quite; DJT presumably wants control of the mineral wealth, including that which will be uncovered as the ice cap melts thanks to the (apparently ficticious) non-existant climate change.

UK to increase age reservists can be called up to 65

Note that's just 0.37% of the Federal budget.

Basically saying his only motivation to stop wars was to get the peace prize. No wonder he's been so tough with Ukraine, pushing them to sign a bad deal - trying to find the easiest way out.

Just tested this on xbox x and we also found that the large pallets are not working for stems or planks.

"Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace" Oh boy.

Not at all, I wish US tariff threats were meaningless USA tariffs threats are still a concern for most countries because most of the tariffed countries rely on heavy exports to the US Only China has been able to more or less insulate itself from US tariffs because they learnt from last time But what we are seeing is countries building around US tariffs threats South Africa and almost all of Africa is very concerned with any tariffs from the US but AGOA looks like it will be renewed so thats good news, its gone through Congress and just needs Trumps signature with still some uncertainty specifically for South Africa https://www.forbesafrica.com/current-affairs/2026/01/15/agoa-renewal-moves-one-step-closer-but-south-africas-eligibility-remains-uncertain " The United States (U.S.) House of Representatives has approved a three-year extension of the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA), following President Donald Trump’s decision to uproot the duty-free agreement in October. Established in 2000 under President Bill Clinton, the preferential trade program offered 32 sub-Saharan African nations duty-free access to the U.S. market for thousands of exports. Despite a renewal receiving the majority vote, 340 to 54, participating states know reinstatement remains uncertain. The bill now heads to the U.S. Senate, which, if approved, will await final approval from Trump, who halted the 25-year agreement just three months ago. "

I believe it has something to do with the fact that I planted the seed first, as I'm seeing others are having a problem with it.

For some ungodly reason the SCA.B 2K button to activate the GROW.R is completely missing in my save. All quests leading up to when you should be able to activate the button, including when Sloane says "I'll watch from my cameras, go push the button!" But the button is completely missing. I cannot progress the story, and I do not know how to progress

VirtuaVerse is next, nice OST at least. Like I'm listening to keygen music

at this point much of the world are numb to usa tariff threat if supreme court rule them as legal it will have far more influence than if they rule against tariff

Just some minor things I noticed that may or may not be applicable to other players' experience. QoL: - Lint drop is very small (roughly the size of the cursor) making it hard to see/pick up, and easily falls through crevices in the terrain making it unreachable - Pinecone drop small, not as small as lint and more manageable but still noticeably different from other drops in game Possible bugs: - Have not obtained cornhog bits from any cornhogs broken (could be bad RNG, could be console), only Billy hog bits - Carrot next to crate containing teddy bear, between fertilizer bags, often loses solid state if not approached at correct angle allowing myself and others in world to walk through - Various areas occasionally lose solid state if playing for extended periods of time, worst incident of this were the stepping stones near the hammer in the direction towards the fairy house (resulted in my character falling straight down below the world, could not give up, had to restart from previous save) - Spikey bur bushes not respawning (could be my specific world vs console issue vs other), some have been fully chopped down to the ground, others have not, none have spawned back after 20+ days in game

The Supreme Court ruling is going to be a big one.

I am having the same problem with the 581.80 drives on my 4090. Were you able to get this resolved or find a fix?

I went back to revisit this game, and now I am not able to select DLSS from the different upscalers. I have FSR, Temporal AA, XesS, and TSR. When I launch the game after trying to force DLSS using the Nvidia app, I get an "_ _INVALID_ _" where DLSS should be. As such, I am not able to select DLSS frame gen either any longer. I have tried uninstalling and doing a clean install of my Nvidia drivers and the app, I initially tried repairing my OW2 install, then when that didn't work did a complete uninstall and reinstall with the same results. I also have hardware accelerated gpu scheduling turned on in display properties. I've even tried restoring all settings to default in the Nvidia app. I have also deleted my earlier game config files with no luck. I've only found a couple users with this problem online, but it seems in their situation it was that they didn't have HAGS enabled. Any idea what the issue might be on my system? As said, it was working when I tried the game about two months ago. I am running the same 581.80 drivers on my 4090. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

We had a bunch of fog here too around the same time. The issues come when the air starts to smell when you open the windows... I promptly went and bought a couple of more air cleaners.

Tariffs are back on the menu, boys. Real curious how much the stock market will tank on monday. Thinking of doing some purchases then, maybe it's just the usual grift again. Or we'll bomb each other to scraps, but then it won't matter anymore anyways.

Hello! I am thoroughly enjoying PoE's new Turn-based mode. I never made it through the game on space to pause and I'm loving it on turn-based. I'm having the usual pathfinding bugs and game hanging indefinitely bugs reported elsewhere, but they usually resolve on restart. However, When I got to level 7 of the endless paths of Od Nua, I ran into two bugs that severely impacted my gameplay. I'm playing on a Mac M4 on MacOS Sequoia, and I'm playing on normal difficulty with the turn-based option on. #1 Shades in the southern middle of the room disappear and never reappear. When fighting shades and elementals in the room in the southern center of the map on level 7 of the endless paths, the two shades will disappear as if to teleport and never reappear again, making it so that the battle cannot be completed. All player turns continue as normal for indefinite rounds. The invisible shades do not take any actions or moves on their turns. If tab is pressed, the labels for the shades appear--one next to the central pillar, one in the right corner of the room. However, spells cast in these areas do not hit the shades, making it seem as if their actual location is elsewhere. The only remedy for this is to reload and restart the fight. #2 Adragans with multiple turns in the room in the middle north of the 7th level of od nua. When completing the 7th level of Od-Nua and heading further down the dungeon, the last room, in the norther center of the map, has a big fight with several animats, some phantoms, and two Adragans. I have read that these Adragans are not supposed to be there on normal difficulty anyway, but the real problem is they take multiple turns. To reproduce, head into this room and start the fight. When the Adragans take their turns, their label in the turn list flashes as they take a turn. Then it flashes again as they take another, etc. The Adragans were taking at least five turns each, casting different druid spells on each one--none of these spells they cast had any cast time and went into effect on the same turn. I do not think this fight can be beaten as is on Normal, and I think this behavior is probably a bug. In any case, I am giving up on Od Nua at this point (My characters are all Level 9) because I can't get through this room. I've restarted the battle multiple times and restarted the game and this does not fix the problem. Hope this is useful.

am clear not gonna complain about getting drawn into a tangential discussion, particular when is more intriguing than the ones am having indulged recent. HA! Good Fun!

As much as I'm interested in theological archeology, I've yet to figure out the background for the Aboriginals (native Australians) creation myth, The Dream Time. It may have been covered in basic school, but I didn't go to school in Australia and a disproportional number (one third? I need to check sources) of schools is run by the Catholic Church and is more likely to teach kids, that we weren't here 6000+ years ago Sorry guys, completely unrelated to Florida, just my absent and sometimes too abstract mind going off on a tangent

Since September, I have had a glitch that prevents only my account from sprinting. I had made a thread and request back then, but it fell on deaf ears. Im hoping they work on a fix bc its a game breaking issue that's infuriating.
