Yup, but it's just funny to see people saying this kind of thing when it's their team but the other team is just incompetent. Seems the offensive is going well, haven't hit the main Russian line yet, but that should not be a problem, the free intelligence and stuff like Storm Shadow and HIMARS will pay dividends. You're ignoring one giant US lie there. Rules bases international order indeed. Why I detest Blinken and his ****ing moralizing here.

I think they've started to ask for money in advance. Well, or at least I hope they are.

Russians need to understand the power of war porn, for sure. Well ok, NATO gear around so offensive is definitely on. Hm, will have to check around on Reddit more, is always funny to see them react when US stuff gets destroyed

Pat Robertson. Guess he's going to find out how Matthew 7:1-3 holds

Leopards in action, well, at least one got blown up. Offensive seems to be going well, Ukrainians making advances near Tokmak.

Do they not respect the Rule Based International Order ? Just watch the real issue be some unrelated government crookedness, like smuggling jewels or something

Well okay, unofficially they are in that a lot of stuff the Ukrainaians act ****y with is donated kit, but a bit different than actually participating in combat. Just the idea that Poland will go and risk it alone is a bit much. Interesting bluster to force NATO to do something, I guess.

Should have hired Sasha Grey, she's been streaming D4 on Twitch

Surpasses The Touch.

After ATACMS it will be #CarriersForUkraine

Been linked before, but this channel is good for a laugh - https://www.youtube.com/@programmersarealsohuman5909

Why I love my local media - CBC interviewing some Ukrainian MP who's saying this is proof Russia will destroy the whole planet if not stopped.

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/live-blog/khakovka-dam-live-updates-ukraine-russia-blew-up-kherson-rcna87855#rcrd13603 US believes it was Russia. So I guess things escalate now, can see Ukraine using this to demand the next level of weapons.

Steaks must be like blackened like my soul.

I'm not, just about 50% of the way through. I've been skipping quests a bit rather than clearing the area mostly as I want to finish the story. Did a sidequest where a daughter was oddly okay with her zombie mother, heh.

Haven't had any crashes, which is a surprise, running the game is pretty smooth - my 4790k/980 rig endures. Funnily enough my friend who is playing on PS5 has had two issues forcing a restart. Blizzard was paying the people to work on Act 4 by the hour it seems, sort of weird to go through it. Reminded me of that chapter in TLJ that was one screen.

Sort of funny that SA can't get away with shrugging at a far off war like EU/NA can. Are people dumping assets just due to fear of US sanctions ?

Always nice to see plot induced stupidity in games, Diablo 4 is no exception.

Not sure the time of release matters that much, takes a while to sort out propaganda like this, I imagine. Was wondering what was striking them, had thought it was mines but apparently was a Ka-52 (sort of amazed they have these, all the combat footage is them being downed).

Ah, ok, I only had some time to check briefly and found https://energyandcleanair.org/weekly-snapshot-russian-fossil-fuels-22-to-28-may-2023/ Although, guess can infer a lot from the type of import - LNG vs petroleum, etc.
