Lenovo L41 I think. Works well, 64 GB RAM, enough to run AWS Console, barely. Good to know, time to start smuggling into Serbia. First laptops, then AKs, move over Bout.

Got a new fancy Win11 laptop for work, at least the new one doesn't have the DWM die when logging in to VPN or BSoD if I pick it up a certain way. Shame it's in service of this soulless work.

Because then Putin wins.

Finally got around to watching Edgerunners , better than my usual 10 year delay from watching shows that were trending. Was enjoyable, nothing amazing, good fanservice interesting how many locations they used straight from the game. Rebecca sure was annoying, rest of characters were decent enough. Adam Smasher's response "Who the **** are you?" to the antagonist giving him orders was the most memorable part.

Fired up Farthest Frontier, apparently you can get items that give buffs. Not sure if I like that, but whatever, Caesar had the gods buffing you why is some merchant selling you a magical wreath any different. Game's come a long way since I first played the EA build, lot more stuff at tier 3 and there's even a tier 4 apparently. Soldiers are annoyingly expensive, I kitted out a bunch best I could and a raider camp still killed most.

Trudeau said Canada would But Pollievre basically wants us to obey Israel and he's our next PM.

This WoW NPC is obviously on LinkedIn

Pretty at least. CNN reporting it was an experimental MRBM. Although I guess isn't that great a distinction between classes when the concern is a nuclear warhead

I was wondering why they tested the emergency alert system in Canada yesterday...

Well people are slaves to Steam, they'll Rise Up. Hate speech is pretty normal for gamers, though

DPRK is the boogeyman if they are that important a target. But I had meant in Ukraine, I misread Bruce's "in Ukraine conflict". Saw some people saying the strikes in Bryansk were Neptunes, but doubt that. Zelensky does say they'll make 3000 next year. https://kyivindependent.com/zelensky-missiles-drones/ Screw the aid then, if they're not buying our stuff.

Yep, I salute their ability to say these things with a straight face, but there's amusement to be had. Well maybe not the Israeli clown with the brick and the yellow Star of David, that was something else entirely.

Sounds like it's a game to buy in a year or more when it's patched up and cheaper.

Surprised the US hasn't leaned on the UAE to stop supporting the Janjaweed. For a laugh as well

They hit an ammo dump in Bryansk with them, so maybe not as restricted

Applying for a cabinet job, I guess. Ridiculous

If only the Buk stopped there.

Not really falling for propaganda to be skeptical of things in war. Should be some footage of DPRK troops in Ukraine by now, certainly won't trust Ukrainian announcements. Not sure the DPRK troops are the sole reason, we don't know the full calculation the US is doing, people assume Ukraine should be above all and hate on them though, heh. In terms of missiles, was following some Ukrainians on social media estimating they have 20 left and need to use 6 per target (I guess Russian AD works somewhat).

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/17/us/politics/biden-ukraine-russia-atacms-missiles.html Some restrictions apply, still.

Seems more like business as usual rather than escalation to launch missiles.

Gee haven't seen that take a hundred times already. Fetterman has his take as well https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/john-fetterman-says-democrats-need-stop-freaking-everything-trump-rcna180270 True about nor being distracted by Trump's nonsense, but Gaetz as a troll is dismissing too much

I've always liked how Jesus in Islam is supposed to come back and personally kill the Antichrist, then rule the world after the Madhi's death before he dies. Or at least what I've gathered loosely.

As someone who doesn't know there are playable Civs in Civilization games other than Rome, I agree. But I'm not going to say our society needs to be like it.

I always thought that was what the Antichrist was supposed to do. You can tell a lot about people with what they revere though. From dudes worshipping Rome or Americans fetishizing Rhodesia
