I used to be able to do it when I was younger, these days I can't. I can still do it when it's just numbers, ie eating all sapient life in the galaxy in Stellaris.

Thats always my problem, I just cant make the evil choices. I always feel guilty So I generally stick to my favorite RPG archetype, a Conan personality Never say no to a damsel in distress, chase money and wealth but I have a sense of honor and a moral code of things I wont do

Im about 15 hours into Atomfall and its time for my first review Its a great game, really fun with some excellent design mechanics It doesn't have the vast narrative choices, game world size or factions of Fallout or the horror and survival excitement of STALKER or METRO but it delivers in other ways. It obviously had a limited budget so the developers worked with what they could which is fine The best part of the game is the exploration mechanics, you find notes and general advice around quests and then you have to explore which I love I have avoided using almost any gaming guides or tips because the maps are not that vast where you cant put the effort in So for example one quest was about finding a missing soldier and you end up tracking his notes between 3 maps and you find him because they mention a location, like " he was heading to this Manor X" The combat is simple but fun, you cant block or dodge in melee but you can kick to stun enemies Guns are well done and the physics work, you cant just blast every enemy because ammunition is scarce . So I have ended up using a bow and cricket bat as much as possible. There are only a few enemy types but its fine because combat is always strategic and engaging so you never get bored by "quick wins " I have fought 2 robots and it requires a specific strategy to defeat them which is never easy And then they have implemented a very good skill system, you need to find books\manuals to learn skills and to advance skills so you always motivated to explore or you can buy certain skills but they very expensive The barter system is also clever and unusual, you dont have money but you trade goods and the merchant has a scale so you can see when they will accept your offer. So again you have to explore and find things if you want to trade You also have limited space in your inventory so Im constantly aware of what I need to keep, drop or trade. You cant hoard items Overall, a really positive experience and the game definitely delivers on no quest hand holding and open world design. You can go anywhere on any map you want I will do another review after 30 hours or so

That someone is Spawn, the entire album is based on the comics. :p

Extender finally arrived, but I managed to break the standoff in my MB when moving it to accommodate a shorter board. Warning to people here who try to do it with a screwdriver, it takes 0 torque to break it off when screwing it back in. So if you are ever doing it yourself, either use your fingers or just apply 0 torque to it. Luckily for me the extender comes with holes for different sizes, so I kind of "bent" the board towards the mb, so a screw could catch another hole without a standoff. I have no clue how to get the broken bit of the stand off out of the MB though as it broke flush and there is nothing to grab. I am slowly breaking the MB bit by bit... Here is the extender if anyone is interested: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005515040875.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.4.65201802CTP9Vb I got the F44AB as it supports PCIe gen 5 and has a plug for a power cable. Forgot to mention that everything works. Here is a benchmark on a PCIe gen 3 port:

I just think that Israel is likes to assassinate people so they are willing to lie in order to get support for their action and that let US (Trump, Hegseth and co ) to have attitude that things will go like they went in Venezuela when they decided to participate. As even though they didn't actually change leadership Venezuela, still Venezuela didn't have willingness to fight, which probably led said people to underestimate how conflict with Iran will go. I think they now have realized that what their adviser has said maybe true, but there is little they can do than see conflict to its end

Yes, thats my point Israel knows that killing leaders of these groups wont change the ideological views of these groups Thats not why they do it So I doubt they would now think killing the Iranian leadership is going to suddenly change things in Iran like in Venezuela

Israel has long history of assassinating leadership of Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran, even though it has not worked for them in past they still continue to do it. So their assessment isn't that good.

Great approach 🙂 Trying out the system on your own before looking for a group is perfectly normal. And yes, there are options for D&D 5e.

You could be right but it wouldn't be a very good assessment of Iran and Israel is typically aware of how these things unfold Irans anti-US sentiment is decades long, the hardliners have created an entire culture and ideology that is deeply influenced by resistance to " US imperialism", And they dislike Israel even more By killing the Iranian leadership it doesnt seem likely they would now end up like Venezuela by immediately starting to reverse Maduros failed policies The ME and its various fundamentalist and extremist groups don't generally operate or think like that. How many times has Israel killed Hamas or Hezbollah top leaders and they still have the same views? So if the US and Israel did believe that it doesn't support the reality and history

I don't think they were planning to do ground invasion, as they didn't move any ground troops on the area during the months they we moving forces there. They maybe forced to do ground invasion in order to keep strait of Hormuz open, but I think they really believed that if they kill the leadership Iran will just surrender same way as Venezuela did.

Indeed. It's not like this ever happened before.

Yes, some GOP politicians do think a ground invasion makes sense. But thats normal in the US, politicians have different opinions Thats not going to happen because that would mean the US becomes involved in a protracted war and Trump wants to avoid that, this latest military campaign is already deeply unpopular and he wants a "quick win " using airstrikes And I definitely dont believe the US would sink one of its own carriers to try to justify conventional war But if Iran does that it would be a different story
