So what does it stand for now champ

GOG stands for “Good Old Games” bro, TYL

It’s not an old game?

Russia has an army of “vocal critics” who play an important role in the pantomime, you see them on RT regularly. It doesn’t prove anything.

Please don’t leave

• Owned by the Russians

• Partnered with the CCP Tencent

You bring the tax in for EVs first, and conservatives will either not care or even cheer for it. A new tax on woke cars!

Then after the next election you quietly extend it to all vehicles.

You think the internet being flooded with articles, comments etc. all being written by AI whose only goals are selling shit, disseminating misinformation, and manipulating elections and opinions - with no way to know what is human and what is AI - is going to be a great environment to continue to train your AI?

If someone patents the wheel, it’s very hard to make a car.

Mozilla’s primary revenue is from Google, because Google doesn’t want Chrome to be broken up by the FTC. Same reason Microsoft kept Apple afloat in the dark times before Jobs returned.

It’s dumbed down but sailing into the wind is possible IRL. By keeping your sail at an angle the wind pushes you sideways, but your keel is kept in place by the water, so your ship moves forward.

This analogy falls apart when you note that “overgrazing” these resources does absolutely nothing to harm them.

Only if you consider AI-supercharged misinformation to not be harmful.

Only if you consider the entropy of human interaction on the internet to not be harmful.

Only if you consider being unable to know who is real to not be harmful.

Yeah I understand their motivation, that’s what I’m saying - their primary reason to be there at all is now dust.

Russia will veto anything the UN tries to do.

Yes, it would be foolish to try and take back the annexed territories.

By hammering Savastopol they make it worthless. By hammering the land bridge they force all supplies to go by the Kerch bridge, and that bridge is not long for this world.

When Russia has no strategic value in Savastopol, and cannot supply their troops or population in Crimea, all Ukraine has to do is wait.

Tarnavsky has been doing a lot of interviews and is surprisingly candid. Surprised he has time to do it, but it’s gone a long way to make people aware of how much important progress Ukraine has made.

I think Ukraine understand this, but it’s difficult in times of war to take criticism because morale is the most precious resource you have. If they want to join NATO and the EU after the war though, these are the things they are going to have to accept.

Are these the ones Ukraine had to give up using and instead used infantry minesweepers at night?

It’s not that it’s hard to simulate, it’s that there’s no way to really communicate complex injuries to the player in a way that makes sense and isn’t frustrating. Tarkov does a pretty good job but even then it’s extremely clunky to deal with.

There is no point Russia remaining in Ukraine if they can’t use Sevastopol. In strategic terms this essentially puts Russia back in 2013. They’re now burning money and lives for, what, some beaches tourists can use when they aren’t covered in black smoke?
