WoW Forever, sort of fun with the changes. Visually it's improved a lot, the thunderstorms are pretty striking. Fallen behind the curve, I'm only level 21 currently, I think most people are near 40s now.

Sort of funny from Mr Warrior Ethos

Played 5 a good bit, but didn't really catch me as much as 4 or 2 did. Haven't really touched 6 or 7, although I do own 6 due to a give away

I admit I bailed once they got to Civ 5

Appointing Miller as Chief of Staff bodes well for his lame duck period https://x.com/christogrozev/status/2119140959183368459/photo/1

Well, he finally achieved regime change.

Odds Trump nukes Iran in a fit of rage ?

D4 to finish off season, currently playing warlock with the flying skull build. It is rather boring but effective - with talismans I think I have +27 Abyss skills as well, I hit like a truck at least.

Good innings at least

Lucky they can always find refuge in the US

And that's the economic path in Civ City Rome done, not bad, I really fail at urban planning. Well either that or there was a bug preventing the people from going to the store, could be. Certainly is a cramped game, the maps aren't that big I found. Nothing like spamming gardens in random places to up your civilization rating, heh.

Bolsonaro lost, apparently he refuses to concede though.

https://www.theverge.com/ai-artificial-intelligence/1018217/reddit-opensource-ai-ban Slow news day. Banning any AI use for a project seems silly, can't really fight the tide here. One thing I've even heard at work is people trying to blame Claude/Copilot for something, rather than owning it.

Minions at work failing phishing tests, so that's fun as I have to nag them about it.

Schreier sounds like a weenie, suitably. EA's got quite the graveyard now

https://www.wsj.com/world/ukraine-starlink-elon-musk-trump-dbc49193 Well Musk's not going to be popular in Ukraine.

I raged at the injuries due to head hits. Trying HoMM 3 again, I suck at it.
