  1. Well, we found out that Biden is past it and that the smart move would be to replace him
  2. Escalated fast https://i.imgur.com/l4Agtbb.mp4 Also, cream. Drink cream. Water ain't gonna do ****.
  3. ^^ Why are your links always dead for me. ahh, work filter says : URL: thechive.com/ Category: questionable
  4. Well, NATO membership isn't strictly necessary, key countries could sign defense pacts with Ukraine and it would have more or less the same effect. It's not a bad thing to hear Putin talk about the possibility of peace. No doubt the key motive here is to further existing disagreements between Ukraine's NATO backers, but he still said it. That moves it closer to being a reality. We should really try to avoid this dragging on for another 10 years.
  5. yeah, it's pretty good.
  6. The demo Carrie is showing off has both now, Fallout style.
  7. I missed the boat, again. I forgot to get tekken 8 at half price too.
  8. https://www.metacritic.com/game/homeworld-3/ Ouch. The industry score means nothing. The bad user score is either a hissy fit, lots of those around, or a good indication of a terrible game. In truth I probably resemble all the old-school fanboys who have written bad reviews, so, I dunno. A pass 'i think. Jagged Alliance is 50% off, the new one. I might get that instead.
  9. Sounds suspiciously like the Israeli response.
  10. I suppose they will be tried in absentia. It will be interesting to see if that does anything to change perception.
  11. What should I get if I wanted to go Ryzen. My motherboard just died with a nefarious "disconnect your drives, a system failure may be imminent" message. I have an rx7900xtx and I figure it's too early to swap that out. The cpu could be salvaged, but it's a 12th gen intel core I 5, it was cheap at the time, and it doesn't feel very upgrady to buy a b660 chipset in 2024.
  12. I also watched the first fallout season. It started a bit mixed and turned out really good. I think they got the recipe largely right. There is a ton to chose from in all the games and having three characters just kinda move through it all, The good, the bad and the ugly style, while keeping the characters in focus enables all the lore not to become baggage.
  13. the music is supposed to be terrible, it's tradition
  14. Well, Israel is engaging in war crimes in its war with Hamas according to basically everyone without a vested interest. It is already illegal to invest in Russia for the same reason. Israel gets a pass because the security cooperation and financial ties between it and the US as well as the unfathomable amount of influence it holds in internal US politics. European leaders back Biden's play because of the hundreds of billions of dollars of aid for Ukraine, and because if they don't, they will be dealing with Trump for the next four years. These relations are all transactional, none of them are ethical. If the international criminal court means anything, it will have to issue arrest warrants on both Hamas and senior Israeli leaders, given the facts. With all this, it is entirely appropriate and moral to attempt to undermine the US-Israeli relationship, or at least to say that they don't want their university to have a stake in the continuation of violations against human rights.
  15. There is a lot going on at the same time at different sites but ; What's radical about demanding that a university divest from the arms industry, or that it publish a list of it's potential conflicts of interests. the same should be true of investments with a connection to slave labor, or fundamentally undemocratic ones. The protestors, well at least 50% of them, are paying customers. Institutions of higher learning are supposed to be committed to democratic ideals, there is a long history that at least. Without an ethics clause attached to their investments, the rot and corruption will set in, as we have seen evidence of already.
  16. Wait until you get to diamond city.
  17. how can you stand the 3 minute load times.
  18. Biden's approval of his handling of the Gaza conflict among the 18-25 demographic is at 22% or thereabouts, which is completely terrible. They won't forget being dismissed as antisemitic on little to no evidence, or that that they were dubbed "outside agitators" when this was not true. They are absolutely going to hold a grudge against the Democratic party that Trump can exploit. Trump is no different on Israel, he is even plausibly worse, but Trump is an enemy, he's not a friend who stabbed you in the back, that's always worse. He tried to walk the tightrope by steadily walking up his critique of Israel, but it was so obviously dishonest that he managed to lose ground with both the pro Israelis and the pro Palestineans. You can't be all things to all people. Also, way to piss away the clout he got from pushing student debt relief. That should have been a huge winner for him with anyone in a similar situation.
  19. I thought this was a good recap if anyone feels as if they were jumping in on season 23 of the walking dead
  20. The government wants me to send them my poop in the mail. I was selected for colon cancer screening it seems. there's a little plastic container thingie and an envelope with several hazmat seals. I'm speechless.
  21. A movie doesn't run on the same clock as a book though. It seemed comical the way the fremen won the battle and ran straight into the emperors ships and flew off on the great Jihad all in the space of a few minuites.
