Nice, bundling them together is also a great move. Evil, corrupt fucks, draining their nations, fueling violence.

I, for once am excited. I didn't buy Overwatch since I was deeply disappointed in Blizzard, after D3. Then the whole pandering to CCP and Blitzchung fiasco happened and that cemented my decision.

I didn't play Valor ant since I don't enjoy having a Chinese kernel level spyware on my PC.

So this may be something that can satisfy my itch.

VTC is a state owned enterprise...

He doesn't overact it. He's genuinely and rightfully salty when it comes to companies and governments screwing us and him over.

Ran rm -rf after copying filepath with a space. The directory up to the space did exist. Fortunately so did a backup.

Cleaned a secondary drive mounted at the same point without noticing I was on the wrong SSH terminal tab, at least twice.

"Abolish our criminal government" by supporting a known member of the establishment with a history of fraud and infidelity. I don't know what can go wrong.

But then again it's a two party system there. So they really don't have a way out and it might seem like the only one.

Are you implying that Trump believers with faith deep enough to buy the stock regularly (eg they're not an oligarch/enterprise doing it to bribe Trump) is thinking this logically?

People either vote for him for other reasons (tax cuts for the rich, conservatism, fear for the border or racism) or are deep enough into a cult to disregard anything.

Also a worker that doesn't have to waste time on bureaucracy and healthcare considerations has more time to be productive.

Isn't that just a regular nuclear explosion in space? I don't think there's too much of development needed.

Last time I checked almost every major player just agreed we don't do that to not fuck up our future.

If you are in a decent condition it's likely doable from the get go.

It's definitely doable for almost anyone via gradual distance increase.

For reference:

I'm your average, feeble programmer. My only interest in biking is exchange of temporary suffering for a good chance at longer and comfier life. Also cheaping out on public communication tickets.

I was slightly overweight when started biking (25.5 BMI). I have 6km to work. Had to do round trip and back (so 18km pretty much your distance) one day a few weeks after starting bike commutes (I forgot something and had to do a round trip right after arrival).

At 6km at the start I was pretty spent and almost at the point of needing a shower.
At 12km I was exhausted, in pain and absolutely needed a shower.
At 18km, with a 15min break for a shower at home I was fucking dying (figuratively).

So if you never biked I suggest feeling out your limits and gradual acclimation. But it's definitely achievable.

The thing about the used molecules is that they attach to the cancer more than other cells.

Apart from that you can concentrate the infrared light at the main clusters.

I'd say it is an improvement. Even if only the main clusters are destroyed it's noninvasive way to reduce the chance of mutation (less cancer cells means less chances for a mutation to gain chemo resistance).

About the city-builder early game experience - you pretty much nailed my feelings about the game.

I think the weakness of the game is that one needs to experience other strategy games (I played very little of city builders, but a lot of grand strategies and 4X) and have some level of self reflection or meta thinking to be immediately attracted to this concept (without trying out the game first).

Most people who didn't notice that micromanaging already won late game is the bad, tedious part, would be reluctant to accept the inevitable destruction of their cities.

I think that there's an untapped potential in increased complexity of the central City. What I mean is that if there was some metagame city building it would attract a bit more players.
