Do you think bad weather is a good reason for moving?
  • if the weather is making you unhappy on a regular basis, I don’t see why that isn’t a valid reason to make moving away a goal.

    With the ongoing climate catastrophe, it’s probably prudent to take such factors into account.

  • Not really? I feel like that was a lot closer to new Vegas. That felt like a continuation of obsidian whereas starfield very much feels like a continuation of the trends between Skyrim and FO4 within bethesdas game design. If that makes sense.

    What is a hobby you enjoy, but seems too quirky or obscure to bring up in most conversations?
  • The god of war phone game was a pretty solid metroidvania. I really liked the elder scrolls one too.

    What are you emulating them on?

  • So messaging has two solutions, based off two protocols(code thing for foundation?) that are both integrated?

  • Ok, I’m a dumbass when it comes to tech. Philosophy major that redditlords mald about.

    I appreciate the effort you put into answering, but I still dont understand .

    So secure message is just a way to bypass mods? Why is that an option?

    McConnell on Ukraine proxy war: "We haven’t lost a single American in this war. Most of the money that we spend, is spent on replenishing weapons, so it’s actually employing people here."[paraphrased]
  • I didn't say Russia did it. I should not have assumed

    rationality I try to assume that actions are taken because the person doing it views it as rational. I don't see the point in trying to understand the world only to write-off as irrational the actions taken under different material realities.

    Unlike the US Germany actually has the stealth subs to pull it off undetected unrelated tangent, but I would be very interested in hearing more about German stealth subs and what makes them better. I don't know much about the German navy.

    Fair enough on the rest, it seems like a weak motive given that Russia could simply not send the gas or disable it on their end, but that's my opinion not a fact.

    Out of curiosity, where did you pick up "seppo"? I've only heard Australians use it before, maybe the occasional brit.

    Agreed on Dugin being full of nationalist BS.

  • no advantage

    What possible gain is there for Russia to blow up the off-ramp to the gas sanctions? Best case scenario for Russia in regards to the pipeline would have been it being reopened when Europe decided higher energy costs are no longer worth it.

    Furthermore, here is a direct quote from Biden:

    Speaking to reporters on February 7, Biden said: "If Russia invades, that means tanks or troops crossing the border of Ukraine again, there will no longer be a Nord Stream 2." "We will bring an end to it," the president said. A journalist asked Biden how he could do that since Germany was in control of the project, the president replied: "I promise you: We will be able to do it."

    The discussion started with a disagreement over the claims of subservience, right? Taking away the option to assert sovereignty over which sanctions are worth it is something that benefits the USA, hurts Europe, and takes away a potential advantage for Russia when the war inevitably ends someday and the practicality of buying from them instead of America (who charges more in addition to being less practical).

    There would be no need to blow it up if Europe (Germany at bare minimum) was seen as completely subservient.

    What does the ML in Lemmy ML stand for?
  • Mali was chosen because the dev team has a lot of communists and ML is often used as a shorthand for Marxism-Leninism. Tangentially related: If you ever see a communists who is strangely enthusiastic about MultiLevelMarketing they are probably talking about Marxism-Leninism-Maoism when they say MLM.

    Sorry it took so long for somebody to answer.

    Ukraine to compete at 2024 Olympics on one condition: athletes from Russia and Belarus must perform under neutral flags
  • The original Olympic truce required everyone to lay down their arms. It would go against the spirit to selectively enforce this. Not that the IOC actually cares about the legacy of the games, they tried to remove wrestling at one point.
