Too much nature. Disgusting.

If you lose, we can all storm the HOA offices.

Day off work, so the only complaining and requests to do things comes from my family.

I wasn't talking about the FFL in the first place. But no matter. I don't see why we need to care about your bickering on the Codex, either.

Sale on Ukrainian games - https://www.gog.com/en/promo/2024_ukraine_days Should go nab Cossacks. Remember, if you don't buy, Putin wins. 😛

Yes, totally not the International Legion in Ukraine. The idea talk is cheap isn't all that new though, just remember this is a sporting event.

About the same as NAFO members or people moaning about the West's cowardice going to join the legion.

I should watch that. Acolyte is cancelled - https://deadline.com/2024/08/the-acolyte-canceled-no-season-2-star-wars-disney-plus-1236044233/

Got Bannerlord, is very different from M&B Warband. But at least the UI feels better.

She touches on headlines in that, but probably shouldn't. Overreaction in all the reporting, Kharkiv offensive spelled doom for the world, now the Kursk one has completely turned the tide, etc. "It allows Kyiv to address its partners from a position of strength" made me chuckle a bit, as well. https://www.cnn.com/2024/08/15/politics/russia-has-diverted-several-thousand-troops-from-occupied-ukraine-to-counter-kursk-offensive-us-officials-say/index.html If true, then at least less reserves in the south is an accomplishment. So far good progress, they dropped one of three bridges over the Seym river, Russians will have pull back behind it.

The best DC++ hubs are in Russia after all...

Won't distract from the Ukrainian offensive at all.

Also from WSJ. https://www.wsj.com/world/europe/nord-stream-pipeline-explosion-real-story-da24839c "Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky initially approved the plan, according to one officer who participated and three people familiar with it. But later, when the CIA learned of it and asked the Ukrainian president to pull the plug, he ordered a halt, those people said. Zelensky’s commander in chief, Valeriy Zaluzhniy, who was leading the effort, nonetheless forged ahead. "

It's like one of those nightmarish town halls, where the CEO announces some bull**** award from an industry group

Survived another year. At least the cake turned out better this year.

The IDF says hello. But jokes aside, if the Ukrainians do dig in in those towns, have to root them out somehow, so I suppose it's not all that twisted a reasoning. Putin appointed a henchmen to manage or run the defense - https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2024/08/13/putin-appoints-ex-bodyguard-dyumin-to-oversee-defense-of-kursk-region-lawmaker-says-a86008 Although I do laugh at this - "Later, an anonymous Telegram channel claiming insider knowledge claimed that Putin directed Dyumin to “coordinate all agencies currently operating in the Kursk region.”

Gotta use those military acronyms to be a REMF wanker.

That's your idea of a "normal" racist ?

Wonder how common that is in FIBUA situations, thinking about it.

Grinding along in D4, nice changes to Rogue, I am being boring and sticking with Flurry though. Felt like reinstalling M&B, so I am doing that, forgot how clunky the UI is
