  1. It's the internet, nobody knows the real you. The problem is generally that your stated views and opinions often don't align with what you're actually posting. We're all, probably most of us, or at least some of us, human, and we all have our inconsistencies, it's just that yours appear to be fairly consistent. I'm not trying to attack you and I hope you don't see it that way, I'm just trying to explain why you may be viewed that way. FWIW, I don't think you're racist but I do think you have a lot of biases that you don't seem aware of
  2. I hope it does, that was what I hated most about college. I also, and obviously, suck at writing. AI generated portraits in the Pillars area
  3. I'm kinda surprised by how little the DLC added to the core of the game.
  4. So they do have directed EMP weapons but it seems they do use all manner of different technologies as Gromnir has mentioned above
  5. I don't think it matters
  6. I thought they were able to focus it now. I'll have to go look it up.
  7. My Ancestry DNA got updated so I'm having fun with that today. For those curious on how/why my results change
  8. I watched it last night and I'm still not sure how I feel about it.
  9. That's one I still can't handle, pickled herring.
  10. 2k bundle on Humble
  11. Wesley Crusher is the mirror universe Terran Emperor in Star Trek Online. End of message
  12. I just wanted to add that it's sometimes best to put off the council stuff until you have all the companions if you don't already. That way you have all the advisors and all the options available to you because even if you don't care about the mechanical stuff there's still dialogue to miss.
  13. It's not really meant to. See below. No offense taken. Also basing this somewhat on experience with Iraq and Afghanistan where we threw so much money at lucrative contracts that made a lot of people a lot of money but didn't amount to much in the end. I also think the fact that Ukraine is white and Christian and a democracy will help them more than it did those other countries. I can't speak to Kosovo so I'll defer to you there. Of course, I'm super pessimistic about all this stuff but I do think Ukraine will be better off if they "win" but I don't know what a Ukrainian victory would look like or if it's even possible. I think it's unlikely they push Russia out of Ukraine entirely and even if they get close to completely turning the tide then I'm afraid of what Russia would do to prevent such a humiliating defeat.
  14. I'm inclined to agree with Malc. I don't think it's optimistic though but rather a pretty easy way to launder money and make them a vassal state.
  15. My wife's super pro-Russian uncle made me laugh this morning "Germany let us hold their balls for cheap gas, so now we squeeze!"
  16. https://www.forbes.com/sites/karlaalindahao/2021/01/31/smoky-cokey-recipe-lagavulin-highball-2021/?sh=712e531a8168 It's actually really, really good. But then again, so is just the Scotch on its own.
  17. Ginja addicted friends came over on like Saturday or something but I couldn't find ginja so I got some Austrian cherry liqueur instead. They didn't touch it so now I'm having a little with coke. Sure, it's like 50 bucks for a bottle but I've mixed 100 dollar Scotch with coke so you know I'm a man of little class and middling sophistication.
  18. That's a fact, Jack. I heard that in Laszlo's voice and not just because I'm from Tucson, Arizonia.
  19. The whole thing is a lie. Can't let people get too close or get to know you because... reasons.
  20. Would if I could, unfortunately I'm a workaholic and actually enjoy my job. I'd never tell anyone but you all that, though. To everyone else I say, work is what I do to live, not who I am. I just do this until I can pursue my real passion full-time. If that ask what that is then I just make up something ridiculous. Yeah, the system has me.
  21. If you like OP items, I mean if you really like OP items, then you got to go down to DLC3
  22. My rinky dink PowerShell GUI was well received and as a reward for my work I now get to add more features. I only created this thing to automate a previously manual process.
