The drone operators video in the article explicitly calls out the commander for being corrupt, misreporting the situation on the ground, having Western contacts that he’s working with, and being involved in narco-trafficking.

I feel bad for the drone operator who was sent to his death for a shitty cause, but if the Russian commanders are like that, that’s a win for the good guys in my book.

JD Vance uses Good Will like a strip club.

Y’all need to pay some Kerbal Space Program. It’ll teach you more about orbital mechanics than a physics degree and a job at NASA (according to XKCD). The only problem is, once you have this knowledge, a lot of sci fi becomes annoying.

There are videos of people reacting to hearing Megadeth’s Holy Wars… the Punishment Due for the first time. I enjoy the song, but I first heard it when I was probably like 10 and don’t really remember the first time. Would be fun to hear it with a fresh pair of ears.

That was a really fun book to listen to. He narrates the second one as well, but it didn’t capture lightning in a bottle the same way.

Probably shouldn’t mention that if you get asked about how you got started at your kid’s school career day.

You just reminded me that I used to have that on CD. It was packed full of jams!

I just watched the trailer. Jesus Christ that looks awful.

Damn that was impressive! Also, I’ll have to let my little brother know that if he keeps beating his meat so much he might accidentally cook it.

Could just round to “3 dollars”

That was such a terrible, awesome scene.

Boss makes $3.44, I make a cent. Sharpen the guillotines, cause I can’t pay my rent.

Crysis was actually a result of poor foresight, with the developers counting on single-threaded CPUs getting more powerful and not accounting for the industry moving to multi-threaded CPUs. As a result, more powerful CPUs still couldn’t run the game well.

I started and stopped Red Dead 2 several times over a few years, because while I enjoyed the story at first, it just wasn’t gripping. Then eventually you get to a point where the story picks up and you’re hooked. It has such a good ending.

Lol I appreciated your edit

That’s such a bummer. I was just talking to my son about him the other week, joking “wasn’t it weird that they got Darth Vader to voice Mufasa in Lion King?” Dude had an amazing voice.

Cam girls are people too

But possibly not the people you expect. A little while ago, someone here posted an article that followed a reporter who took a bunch of low to no paying jobs responding to messages for cam girls. He described how there are teams of people and their entire job is to sell expensive private videos.

It was really depressing.

Yeah I don’t know why the article mentions Gen Z’s “tech-savvy reputation”. Being able to operate a cell phone doesn’t make you tech savvy.

Gen X and Millennials grew up using command line and troubleshooting computer problems before the Internet. Their tech skills are way higher than Gen Z.

Everything you said was correct, except the last sentence. Still pretty sure drinking a gallon of gasoline would be enough to last you your entire life.

That life would just be less than 2-3 weeks.
