To put this in context, these are considered part time positions with an allowance of around £15k

You can imagine what this means. Its a bizarre situation

All of Skyrim

Saudi Arabia and Iran. With russia coming in 3rd. Assuming SA rolls over for america how long can china live on russian oil and some kind of coal to oil process? No idea.

Venezuala is way down the list.

And to finish the point, it failed in ww2 strategic civilian bombing and itll fail here.

It just doesnt work. At least the uk in ww2 didnt have dresden in history books to know better.

He has, as always, found the most spineless way to piss everybody off.

He wont attack, but will let america do it from our bases, and will use the raf to defend those bases against reprisals from iran. But he wont attack iran.

This isnt some grand moral masterstroke its just weak in every way.

Ukraine may be starved of the American-made weapons it needs to resist daily Russian missile attacks — because U.S. forces are using so many of them against Iran

It’s not so bad, russia will be starved of the iranian made drones it needs to attack ukraine - because iran is using so many of them against americans.

The doomer view here is russia will rely more and more on china and its progression to full chinese vassal state will speed up.

Not going to attract any green voters any more than shouting about immigrants will attract reform voters.

Yeah, the situation is largely the same as when everyone was convinced xbow wouod quit making consoles (or worse with hardware prices now).

Cant see how this can go well.

Winning every year since the launch of the ps1.

Im not loving a plan where i get bitten twice in a few hours.

Instead of going outside and rubbing plants on me ill stay inside and fill the air with poison.

Going in the right direction does not mean its good.

When people hear “good news” about inflation they expect prices to be stable*, and they just arent yet.

*or go back to how they were, which is a problem the boe alone cant be expected to educate on.

Its 3% or so. No it isnt good.

Compare this to fedi, shared block lists for admins helps a lot.

Should each game have to clean their forum individually?

Needs a little more than a report. A few prosecutions of people taking russian money would help a lot.

The closest thing ive heard spoken of in nornal gaming circles is Sifu, and i think that has some progression over a single run as the character ages.

As an outsider the reason i domt bother with these is you have to know every damn iframe and move flow timing perfectly to even know what the game is.

Theres one point in this article about a practice mode thats totally wrong. Aint no one ever gonna use that, especially a newbie. Then a later one saying single player should teach you this stuff. This is right.

Reimagining these games as a 2d souls like would be incredible, they do teach the mechanics across the game. But then, those games have loot and xp to soften the harsh reality of the skill ceiling. Would fighting games lovers accept that? I think no.

Surely the main language is still c?

HahahbaahHahahahahahahhhahaaaaaaaa

Oh god i needed this. Thank you wes’s “allies” for that

show all ads that are currently running in one place on the site. Anyone sees an ad not in that place its a crime.

I remember kuro5hin used to do this, ads were normal story posts with comments and voting, just added to the bottom of the main posts. Great system.
