Gameplay is ok, I am mindlessly causing things to explode. The boss fights require me to tank damage as I am old now. Takes me back where Ctrl is the fire button by default. Why Right Alt is the weapons toggle by default is odd (funny thing I often forget the right Alt and Ctrl exist)

1. Upgrade Java version on server 2. Service dies 3. Find out the path to the JRE is hardcoded. 4. Have to create a JRE 6 folder in some folder with a guy's name in it. 5. Start searching for new job.

Realized if you bail in missions in Raptor you get to keep loot. So repeatedly grinding missions to get loot, got the best weapon in the game. For some reason this reminds me of playing Diablo 2. 20 waves out of 27 done. Seems the version I have (the one from GOG you can't get anymore) is crippled with movement, too.

I once did leave my status as "Be Right Back" for 3 weeks though, before someone pointed it out to me.

Was off yesterday, checked work today to see if a #$@#%@# FTP process decided to work. Amazing to see a guy trying to power his way through my Out Of Office status in Teams, messaging me at 2 am. At least it was a productive day out, got to run into a guy who was drunk at 9:30 AM

https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/03/restoring-truth-and-sanity-to-american-history/ Can't go a week without some funny EOs "Over the past decade, Americans have witnessed a concerted and widespread effort to rewrite our Nation’s history, replacing objective facts with a distorted narrative driven by ideology rather than truth. This revisionist movement seeks to undermine the remarkable achievements of the United States by casting its founding principles and historical milestones in a negative light. " "It is the policy of my Administration to restore Federal sites dedicated to history, including parks and museums, to solemn and uplifting public monuments that remind Americans of our extraordinary heritage, consistent progress toward becoming a more perfect Union, and unmatched record of advancing liberty, prosperity, and human flourishing" I think we all know which ones he's talking about.

Putin did it better

Raptor : Call of the Shadows Sheesh this game is hard

Not even ScrotusMaximus ? What has happened to script kiddies these days.

And here's how Maga types see it I am so tired

What's funny is, this response will work.

All I recall about that game Amerzone was a PCG review savaging it. But I guess can't beat the price...although Still Life 2 taught me that free can be too expensive

The reason I knew this is that Pete Hegseth, the secretary of defense, had texted me the war plan at 11:44 a.m. The plan included precise information about weapons packages, targets, and timing." Bit early to be drinking.

Usual ploy to break public services then tout them as terrible so you can replace them with private or just remove them. I bet a lot of Americans, if they were to be cut off from Social Security, would still blame Biden or Obama or something

Pretty sure that is the desired outcome. Many people think Social Security is a ponzi scheme. Surprised Musk isn't out saying it's SOCIALISM

Real shame Lutnick was late to work on 9/11.

Most exciting thing for me is trying a new scent of deodorant.

And won't be any corruption there on the US side
