https://www.cnbc.com/2022/09/28/the-us-and-europe-are-running-out-of-weapons-to-send-to-ukraine.html Probably just CNBC trying to subtly hustle for more money to LM, but is a frightful expenditure of gear in modern war.

Greenpeace sends their regards.

Italy is not that key a part of the machine though, no? And they have Poland to make up for it.

Unlikely, but would be funny to see the US punch themselves in the face this way if/when it comes to light.

Maybe, I'm very charitable to Banished as it's done by one guy who hit what he aimed at. Doesn't really seem like FF is that much deeper, the things I recall are : getting raided (also what's with my lazy ass guards, village's being raided I need to manually scramble them ? 😛 ), food spoiling and crop disease. For the crops, I was expecting to need seeds to start off as well, maybe that's coming in later releases.

The only dialogue that sounded unnatural was Panam & Saul, but that's just because the natural way is so poor. That said, "nova" and "preem" get my teeth on edge a bit

Well its destination would probably be in Russian airspace, they've been doing that for the whole war.

Up to 15 now https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/gunman-opens-fire-school-russias-izhevsk-russian-media-cites-local-police-2022-09-26/ Rookie numbers for school shootings in Russia.

Sure, that's one interpretation I guess. For infrastructure targets, I didn't see the reason for outrage, others have done it and it was okay then. As for incendiaries, eh, everyone has fainting spells anytime a weapon of that class is used (amusing when I recall US media thumping a bit on thermobarics during Afghanistan/Iraq). If they were smart they'd use WP, then get the dodge card everyone else plays, heh. That and well, everyone says it's a war crime everytime, assuming every village is chock full of civilians in the 20 second clip.

Back to Farthest Frontier, food spoilage is a hassle, for now just brute forcing past it. Game really hates me being a farmer, endless disease and pestilence even when I leave it fallow for 2 seasons. Still is fun though, even if it's just Banished but a bit deeper.

Surprised none of the usual people are bleating whataboutism at you Saw that drone video, if it's the same one anyway, 36 seconds long is a good springboard for sure. 1 KIA it seems, but 2 others also get wounded. Ah well, is why war porn isn't really worth watching, no matter what excuse for it one drums up.

Rained a lot, so spent time clearing storm drains with a rake. Probably looked weird to everyone

Given they don't recognize Crimea...big deal ? Consider the precedent set if they did Hm, given the mobilization, next thread will be "wollt ihr den totalen krieg" ?

Return to Monkey Island's ending is crap, but to be expected. Game was very easy, I'd thought the keys puzzles would be harder, one part is just carrying a document over and then getting one just like that. The last puzzles are a bit tricky but are decent enough. Should have refunded this and got it on a sale, $30 was too much to pay (yes, yes, the SoMI quote..)

Consider you're not seeing literally everything, though. Seen Telegrams of regular looking people in decent spirits, others with trash or very downbeat people. The video of one guy with a rusted AKM is funny, though. All said, probably just too late.

Part 4's not harder, just more tedious. They sure did Elaine poorly in this game, no spark or anything, bleh.

Reached Part 4 in RtMI. Game's really easy, which is a shame. But at least no really out there puzzles, I guess. Still not all that funny, chuckled maybe once so far. I did enjoy the sequence on the ship. Apparently part 4 is the good part, though, so we'll see.

Hitting Odessa of all places with the Iranian drones.

So soon ?

News cycle moved on from wetting their pants over the reactor.

Speaking of, they crossed $500 M in funding recently

Have to co-ordinate your putts - sink one to move a mechanism so the other player has a path to the hole ?

Some of the Azov may go to Turkey to sit out the war though

Yes, I believe that is the scare tactic pitch. But had meant new stuff - Abrams, ATACMS, F-16s, etc. Then again, I find retired US generals blather on a lot and are of dubious value, at least the ones that pop up on CNN et al. . Clark and Flynn got stars right ? 😛
