  1. My half assed guess: US has been diminished on the geopolitical world stage with the bungled Afghan withdrawal so it’s just Russia being Russia and capitalizing on it US isn’t currently in a position to potentially kick off WW3 over another useless dirt patch
  2. Fingers crossed. I won’t get into the whole SBMM thing again, takes awhile to explain how insidious it is but summed up its to push more MTX and coddle bad players, fooling them into thinking they don’t suck so that they buy more MTX as well. Really hoping MS forces the devs to change that. Takes a lot of the fun out of gaming with and against others.

    just a mock-up but the kind of thing MS can do now that they have all the rights
  4. Not like it used to. Back in those days everyone had a headset and used it. There are outliers but generally the lobbies are silent now. Bygone era. Also, lobbies disband after every match now thanks to SBMM. So those lobby rivalries where you could get your revenge and come back on them next round after shit talking are over. Sad, there were some fun times to be had when you rolled with a squad and went up against another one.

    Not sure how long you’ve been following the Fallout saga. NV was made by Obsidian but published by Bethesda. Obsidian is mostly former devs from Black Isle Studios which made Fallout 1-2. Then Beth bought the IP and made 3-4-76 but had allowed Obsidian to make NV( by far the better of the post Black Isle Fallout games). With this weeks purchase MS now owns both Obsidian and Beth. Beth’s got their hands full with ESVI and that sci fi game Starfield. Not out of the realm of possibility we get another Obsidian developed Fallout if MS hands them the franchise reins while Beth focuses on other stuff

    Shoes?

    Yeah it’s a new lacing system. still on the fence about it but so far works well and looks cool. Hiking/trail shoes are def in rn. Salomon’s been killing it they got goretex too so kinda stopgap between wearing full on winter boots or mesh sneakers
  7. Dunno where to dump these never seen them before N Hollywood Shoutout 97

    Shoes?

    It looks great with some shoes and it’s easy. Imo not worth it though, you’ll ruin your shoes and your feet the second it gets a little hot outside. Not to mention them smelling like death in no time. Just get some no show’s for the same look unless you’re at the beach then all bets are off

    Xbox now owns most of the big Western developers. RPGs included. Bethesda, InXile, Obsidian Sony still king for the JRPGs though. Think they got the timed exclusive for FFXVI This is a big move. They want to make game pass like Disney+. Everything is gonna go sub based. You will have access to everything, own nothing and consumers will love it. Not sure how I feel about it. Owning nothing sucks but if you got access to everything for 5$ more a month than you pay for ps+ or an xbox gold sub why not.. until the model is prevalent and they jack the price on us. Whole industry is changing
  11. Kinda… but not really for long distances. “Still, some activity around battery-electric freight trains has begun to stir. Wabtec’s new battery-electric locomotive, for example, will make its first runs on a 139-mile route from the suburbs of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to the town of Conneaut, Ohio, chaperoned by the newest iteration of the company’s fuel efficient diesel locomotives. The diesel-electric combo may disappoint electrification fans, but Wabtec still expects an overall emissions cut of 30%, which is no small potatoes. Fuel cells offer another route to electrification. Sierra Northern Railroad in California, for example, recently won a grant to build a fuel cell electric locomotive for freight applications. It will be confined to work in a switching yard”

    damn, MS taking the early lead https://charlieintel.com/microsoft-to-acquire-call-of-duty-publisher-activision-blizzard/157981/
  14. In large part I agree with you. The vax doesn’t do much in terms of stopping the spread though and if you’re around 40 and have no other health conditions your chances of falling seriously ill are next to none. Esp now with this new variant. YMMV of course but i’m not seeing the use. It made sense at first but now they’re driving off the cliff
  15. Bang on. Why the hell are they forcing us to take these boosters to fight variants they don’t even cover. The whole thing is so strange. Up where i’m at we’ve got a 10pm curfew, a vax pass (can’t go anywhere public without it) and now they’re proposing a tax on unvaxxed. All for a shot that doesn’t cover the current variants anyway? Bizarre
  16. Well yeah, everyone knows you need 2 jabs and 2 boosters cmon now
