It's definitely fun predicting release delays for a game that was supposed to be out five years ago, then entirely scrapped, redeveloped and gliding past release dates ever since.

Like it's entire thing is teasing people and running off to a future release date, to be delayed again. Cyberpunk is the cold fusion of video games.

I think it's going to be another SPORE, and everything they've released in previews so far is the whole game and people will burn through the content in a day and that'll be it. I want to be wrong.

The Card was docked in Saigon and a VC frogman planted explosives on the side. It sunk 20ft and bottomed out. They refloated it and it was repaired and put under sail again. It was a Bogue-class escort carrier from WWII and it spent the Vietnam War ferrying helicopters over.

VC sappers could be crazy effective. I read Hue 1968 and in the lead up to the attack on the city the VC snuck into a nearby ARVN tank park and planted explosives under every vehicle then attacked the barracks. The tanks there played zero role in the subsequent battle.

Also unrelated HOT TAKE time: If Mitch McConnel was a Democrat and pulled all the poo poo he did, but was otherwise say the same politically or left of Pelosi and/or Schumer, a lot of people would love him (and more would call questions about his use of power concern trolling). Sorry, just been wanting to get that out of my system for a while.

If Mitch McConnell pulled a lot of dirty political tricks to do good things instead of bad things, then yes, lots of people would love him, including myself. I don't think that's particularly controversial.

Not just any woman, Ronna ROMNEY-McDaniel. Donnie hates Mitt so much that Donnie made Ronna drop the Romney off her last name. It's pretty funny.

Anyways, Donnie's campaign is broke as gently caress (and they're making the RNC pay for some poo poo).

Maybe, but there's no way to know. Campaigns are mandated to give their monthly cash on-hand balances and what they spent it on in campaign expenditure reports, but there's no publically-known stuff. Just really old references to a $10M fund that's been used for all of the lawsuits up to this point: https://www.politico.com/news/2020/02/20/michigan-voting-lawsuits-rnc-trump-116142

Nah, I figure he's broke. It makes more sense to get the votes as close as possible to make contention and such more viable. You'd figure the RNC would fund the legal challenges and such if it meant the difference between 4 more years of donnie or 4 more years of biden even if Donnie was entirely broke.

That’s weird they never bother renewing their law licenses. Guess they didn’t want to deal with CLEs?

This is a victory ad the Trump campaign bought on Facebook. They're not showing it yet, it's uploaded now to circumvent the "no new political ads starting a week before election" and show it on election day.

I could write a synopsis of the ad but it wouldn't do it justice.

Details: https://www.cnbc.com/2020/10/27/trump-campaign-ads-are-working-around-facebooks-election-rules.html

This is kind of a brilliant work around (in a rules lawyering way), I mean no way does Facebook not pull them. Granted then it’s “proof” big tech is out to get Trump.

It wouldn't shock me in the slightest if the father wasn't being "compensated" for his support. Because why the gently caress not. Nothing surprises me anymore.

There was some weird thing where squirrels were talking to him and that was a defense of something he did or something. Dude was a ghoul who didn't deserve rona because he deserved worse. He ordered in a policy of bonuses to encourage unsafe practices in his coal mines and someone's bonus check came out to like $3.72. That worker sent it back with "eat poo poo Bob" written on it. I would watch the whole episode its pretty insane

quote:

Ask most of the miners working at the Maple Creek or Powhatan No. 6 mines to tell you owner/operator Robert Murray's squirrel story and you're in for a treat.

The way Murray tells it, he had just been let go in 1987 as CEO of North American Coal Company and was feeling extremely down about the whole situation. At home one day, Murray was sitting on his back porch, contemplating his future, when he was approached by a squirrel. Murray says the squirrel hopped up next to him, looked him square in the eye and said "Bob Murray, you should be operating your very own mines." Unfortunately for UMWA miners, this seemingly intelligent rodent wasn't too keen on fairness, so it neglected to add the words "and make sure you treat your workers the way you would want to be treated."
