  1. Al least for common people, I don't think so, most of it stems from bad-mouthing the good guys or just people following Ukraine's stance in anything.
  2. Yeah, looks like a huge hit. So Russians will need to abandon Crimea, pretty much. Going to need a long time to replace all this lost equipment, too.
  3. All the OSINT types and their followers musing it was done via a Hrim-2. Seems good news all around for Ukraine lately. ISW disagrees with the Russians blowing up the nuclear plants, for all that's worth https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/russian-offensive-campaign-assessment-august-8 Whoops, Mamoulian War already posted it.
  4. Strange in this war how it's 100% or total failure as a system. also, guessed wrong with the strike. Well, assuming this unnamed official is telling truth
  5. <insert pun on Seagal's movies' names here>
  6. So they were given ATACMS but told by the bosses where they can use it, perhaps ?
  7. How is this victim blaming, though? Airbase explosions in Crimea, would be interesting to see what hit it.
  8. By "energy units" what (no pun intended) do they mean, the reactors themselves ?
  9. Nice space heater.
  10. Nah, just libertarian. Well...maybe same thing. In weaponry news - UAF got, I assume, HARMs. Or maybe some Standards they found in a warehouse somewhere..
  11. I thought it was proof of Satan's influence on Earth.
  12. Well, playing more Andromeda feels like I am playing The Division or something. The bug where loading a save where you're in the Nomad was fun to experience - waited 3-4 mins, could have sworn the game was hardlocked until I accidentally hit ` and opened the console. Got all the party members I could, so far they seem ok in terms of what I'd expect from ME. Guess it was worth $10 off of this so far.
  13. Yep, saw that. Not convinced it's supporting Russian narratives or whatever though, is a relatively tame offense compared to the stuff we see like torture and executions. Definitely not going to change anyone's mind in Western countries all that much. Her demand that the report "should at least investigate the two sides and take into account the position of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine." is somewhat funny when I recall various discussions in this war, though.
  14. The reactions to Amnesty International's report is something I don't get, AI always gets dismissed when they say anything negative about the Blue Team though, so isn't a total shock. But was expecting something more from AI to warrant that, the report seemed tame and I'm not seeing this supposed "false equivalence" being drawn here. At least the Telegraph's take on it is funny - https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2022/08/06/amnesty-now-utterly-morally-bankrupt/
  15. Finished ME3. Was rather amusing to see how Garrus and Vega with Typhoons just dismantled everything during that boss fight. Did the God Empress Shepard with the creepy monologue over the slideshow. Edit : Have started Andromeda, combat seems like it might be more interesting with movement, the Frostbite engine is aptly named, everything looks cold, heh, damn dead eyed characters. My Ryder seems to have trouble making eye contact when speaking to people. Just out of the prologue, arrived at the Citadel
  16. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/software/winamp-releases-new-version-after-four-years-in-development/ It seems the llama won this round though
  17. Hearing missiles landed in Japanese waters had me worried for a bit, but turns out it's in the EEZ off Okinawa.
  18. Also that oil rig in the Black Sea is still burning, no ?
  19. Was curious, grabbed it for $10. That and I've never paid for any ME game so figure tossing EA/Bioware $10 is fair I am sure the game will be "ok" in my book, we'll see.
  20. Almost to the end of ME3. Giving Garrus the Typhoon proves to work out quite well, well the rare moments he realizes he actually has LOS with the target rather than mag dumping a wall or indestructible box. I guess after this will be Andromeda, better start that download.
