It's cheaper if you're willing to do your own butchery.
Eh, if the tanks hadn't started, France probably would have held. The tank charge through the Argonne forest at near road-speeds caught the French seriously off guard, as their plan involved reinforcing Belgium at the river, holding the Maginot line, and dealing with a force comprised of only light infantry in the forest. Without tanks to rush the lightly-defended gap, France might well have had time to deploy their reserves to reinforce the Argonne and held the Germans off.
They get a lot of shit for losing quickly, but if German tank development had been 10 years behind the curve, they would've been victorious.
Also of note, the invasion of Poland was not nearly as successful as historians would have you believe. If only Germany had invaded, it would've been hard fighting.
Depends on what he's packing. Once you pop you just can't stop... or your "I was afraid for my life" defense falls apart.
Calm, judicious, restrained uses of defensive force can be more personally dangerous than panicked, wild, excessive self-defense.
He links to Polygon unarchived, so we already know he's not terribly bright.
In theory, you want to have your senior leadership financially invested in the success of the company.
In practice, it creates a perverse incentive.
If I wanted to offer stock as an incentive to executives, I'd probably make it a contractual obligation to hold said stock until 730 days after retirement, resignation, or sacking. It's hard to orchestrate a pump-and-dump scheme two years after you leave.
Jesus would flip tables and yell. I think it's time we follow suit.
That's a great series of posts. Makes me miss the old 4chan. The new one is too... nice.
I can't even tell what word should have been used in some of these sentences. Usually I can at least figure things out in context, but even the context is garbled.
My only objection is we'd have to let them vote, and we can just barely pretend to control our government as-is.
I gave my local "read banned books" yapper my copy of Ulysses to read. Haven't heard a peep out of her in weeks, but she also hasn't given up and returned it, so maybe she's attempting to read the only book actually banned in these once-united states.
It's good advertising for the "don't get on the fucking boats then" campaign.
The only overlap is KK herself, and I wouldn't exactly call her a fan of Indiana Jones.
It's been twenty years since Knight of Lodis came out, and I'm still looking for another tactics game that scratches that itch half as well.
Yeah, while most elements of a character creation mechanic are just a re-skinned version of the developer tool, some features are clearly "we dumped a lot of excess dev cycles into this".
Like BG3's vitiligo slider. They spent time on that.
This is what turned working-class black Americans into the welfare joggers you see today in two generations. That bargain breaks down quickly once the government pays her to keep you out of the house, and the dysgenic downward spiral begins immediately.
In fact, that might be the plan. It worked before; just repeat it with whites.
Because the people getting 90% of the abortions don't pay taxes.
I feel like at least the English translation implies the existence of other humans, but it's been a while since I looked at Genesis.
The regime is pro-faggotry, so acts of faggotry are tolerated even when lesser behaviors which are not faggotry are banned.
Probably. If you're spending time with a group of friends, it's not really "partying", now is it?
Lot's daughters supposedly got him blind drunk and took turns pretending to be their mother after the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, believing themselves to be the last humans alive.
They really should have changed the name after 1917 or so.
The name changed in 1865. These United States became The United States. An implicit acknowledgement that there were no individually sovereign states in a union, only a federal government.
presumably, before most of the people currently disregarding it were born.
The entire leadership of the Left which has captured institutions is 70+, so they would all remember 1963, if they could remember anything, because half of them have dementia.
Well, that and making tyranny dangerous.
Even if the backdoor master code is some manner of algorithm, they'll have handed it out enough times for the feds to reverse-engineer it so they can produce safe codes at will.
Are you talking about the very beginning of Act III? You can give them money and send them to an inn; you just have to tell the homeowner that you'll remove the squatters and then talk to the family's father and give him 100gp to pack up and move out.
It does require fighting the mercenaries who are angry that you've taken a job they were in negotiations for, but they'd already rubbed me the wrong way, so no real loss.
