They'll fuck it up. The original cast is too old and if this is set after the film then Wash and Shepherd are dead. Better to leave it be and do something else.

It's just hard for me to gauge the Chinese as I think they are a glass cannon but I don't know how much of a glass cannon they are as is their equipment shit or is the stuff they send out worse than the stuff they have domestically?

I'm just saying what I heard, might've been Iran wanted a huge stockpile of drones so got a few from China to see if theirs was any good if their own production was hit.

I heard though, cannot confirm myself, the Iranians are saying the drones they got from China have been useless.

We just wanted to get rid of the failed pirate, and at that level we can just hope that he's at least less of a RINO.

Real one will be Brandon Herrera, if he wins his runoff and we have Paxton win his, then we at least make some progress. I also can't wait for Brandon to be in Congress going over how dumb on a technical level most gun laws are.

Capcom gives me whiplash as sometimes it feels like they pander and then with their main franchise Resident Evil (numbered sequels NOT spin offs) they pull out all the stops to ensure it's good.

They made Grace feel like a woman that's dropped in the thick of it, trying to survive and trying to help Leon as best she can as he seems her only lifeline as a veteran of this shit.

And ironically, these are the same people currently simping over Leon while hating Grace from RE9...

They don't write characters, they make STATEMENTS, they make a walking, talking embodiment of their virtue signalling politics which is why gamers have stopped buying them, they're not fun. They'll play older games or they few still updated and serviced like Arc Raiders, Helldivers 2 or as mentioned the recent RE9 that don't do this shit.

Yeah I've swear this is a photo back in 2025 even.

Besides I have less complaints on her given that according to Ken they're rejecting censorship of the Internet compared to every western country right now.

This really depends on one key thing:

Were the people voting for other candidates voting for them because they disliked Cornyn and preferred their chosen candidate as their first choice or did they vote for their candidate because they didn't like Cornyn OR Paxton.

Yeah I have 2 faces, my professional face and my actual personality that can be snarky.

Around strangers and 'enemy territory' I only show my professional side so appear neutral, polite and civil.

Those that get to know me in the workplace or friends to the point I KNOW them too, get to know my REAL opinions and snark.

You unfortunately with that question and smirk let your true opinions known in enemy territory. Your best bet would be to refer to any study regarding the vaccines and say you asked because you heard they could be a factor with a certain vaccine and concerned she could be the same. Use 'empathy' against them so they just think you're 'misguided' than an 'alt right MAGA bro'.

Yes...after gross incompetence with Windows 11 forcing people to adopt it and just how shit it was along with forcing AI integration, I'm sure Windows 12 will be FINE with all the Indians working on it...

I'm currently looking at some of the results:

Eye patch Mccain is gone, Brandon and Paxton are in runoffs. Of the two, Brandon got more than Tony so has a good shot since a lot of Tony's votes might have been early voting, BEFORE Tony's scandal really caught fire. (Pun not intended)

Listen if you want companies that don't hate their customers, go to Costco and drink Arizona tea.

Everyone else it's a mix.

Seems like a lot of these people are employees of the USG or companies, as it was said that they were evacuating "non-essential personnel".

My scorn is only for those that VOLUNTARILY go to these openly at risk areas. If you're forced by a paycheck and/or contract, I at least have sympathy there. I know there were MANY disasters that were called months in advance by employees but the owner miles away went 'tough luck, carry on working', hopefully they can charge their hotels and room service to the company...

He was moving assets into place for two months.

I'm actually less sympathetic to that. I had connections in logistics and clocked something happening in China in 2019 before the pandemic happened, giving me time to stock up and prepare 2 months before lockdowns.

If people can't see the armada amassing and think "you know what, I should stay clear of this until whatever is about to happen is done", that's more on them at that point.

American government is telling nearly all Americans to leave about 20 countries.

Think that's a formality at this point like saying "please area if possible" right after the hurricane hit. The American government has fault but I am REALLY tired of people not reading the room nowadays...

I really hope the Scottish vote Restore not their current independence party as THEY are just as culpable letting these invaders away with this.

To play devil's advocate, there is at least a difference:

●Trump's one was an surprise attack and at least the Americans were in friendly (enough) countries so just stuck in hotels.

● Biden screwed up a deal that he just had to follow and then withdrew the military including the logistical support without removing any equipment or civilian assets using the MUCH better defended and capacity air base.

It's hypocrisy from Trump but at least not idiocy to the point of malice as there at least isn't militias currently surrounding them..

Would you prefer I used insect instead to understand a decades old sarcastic meme or does it STILL fly over your head?

Probably right, my tinfoil hat is for discussing the theories of the worst case scenario:

My enemies are as smart and long term thinking as an Korean starcraft player.

So far, they've been as dumb as the lowest ranking CoD player...

I'd say the other risk is the fact Iran went out of their way to hit their neighbours beyond just US bases.

Having your command structure gutted with targeted strikes, diminished missile launching capabilities and no navy only coral reefs isn't good when every nation around you wants to jump you for attacking them.

You know, putting on my tinfoil hat, part me thinks the current displacement of third worlders is to give Europe the rapist murderers first so that afterwards, the street shitters don't seem as bad.

But this is why I for one welcome our machine overlords, rather have the machines take over the west than people that didn't learn basic sanitation in their home nations.

who is he parroting? Or is he just fluffing the other side because they're not White?

See this is the issue, because the left have dominated media studies for decades, they've all been coached how to say bullshit.

His post reminds me of Chinese/North Korean military propaganda, taking the gains of truth then injecting so much bs you'd think they were part of Mk ultra...
