Well, he did call a thermobaric a WMD - https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/both-sides-using-heavier-weapons-war-ukraine-says-finnish-president-2022-06-13/- so maybe they're on to something. Then again which media - could be the Russian equivalent of OAN or The Sun 😛

I think I should outsource my work to some people, I can look productive that way.

Speaking of cops in Canada - https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2022/06/15/read-the-landmark-toronto-police-report-on-race-and-officer-use-of-force.html Not all that shocking, really, but good on them to identify a problem.

Yah, not trying to say they're bad just being from India, it's that we hire seemingly terrible ones. Like a Java developer that needed to know what an inner class was, or the support guy that forgets to double check what his Linux commands do - pro-tip never write 'rm -rf .' One of our Indian team members left, and told me he got a 60% pay raise to do less at a new job locally- What You've Done Today - Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life

I think the mods will step in before we have people moaning about "globohomo" or the Jews.- What are you Playing Now? I name all the operations that go down in Taipei.
Oh right, forgot about that bit after you talk to those things in the hellish zone. My memory ain't what it should be. I think I should give Old World a go, my friend keeps raving about it.- What are you Playing Now? I name all the operations that go down in Taipei.
You can ice the kid after the Harvest Time quest, if I recall. For the rushed ending - maybe they ran out of budget and time. I didn't really mind it in terms of gameplay, the moment when all the choices have a consequence was a bit hammy though.- What are you Playing Now? I name all the operations that go down in Taipei.
I am still disappointed the game tried telling me blowing that kid's chest apart was a bad idea.- Ukraine Conflict - "History never looks like history when you are living through it."

I always liked KSR's via Coyote - Anarchists who want police protection from their slaves.- Random video game news... may the dice be with you!
I've only heard good things about Old World, best Civ game since Civ 4, that kind of thing. Well other than the babies crying because it was an EGS exclusive- What are you Playing Now? I name all the operations that go down in Taipei.
Hardspace is fun, although pulling myself at 20 m/s into a spaceship and dying from the cracked faceplate was a goof. The experience of working for uncaring bosses and doing menial, repetitive tasks is a bit too close to real life to be entertainment, though.- Random video game news... may the dice be with you!
About time. I need some jank in my life.- Ukraine Conflict - "History never looks like history when you are living through it."
Well the BHD incident was also a screw up. If Trump were President, they wouldn't have been there in the first place Canadian troops murdered a couple of Somalis, infamously tortured and killed Shidane Arone, which made people take a look into them closely and the entire regiment was disbanded as a result. If I recall the rest of the army here sent problem children to the regiment - proof of military intelligence if there ever was any. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somalia_affair- Random video game news... may the dice be with you!
