    How many Russians are there in Iran, Korea, or Syria?

    Lots? With plenty of bombs, aircraft, and chemical weapons?

    Yesssss South Africa. That was proper drama.

    It’s mad how before the tournament I was thinking I might catch the odd game maybe, and by the end of the group stages I’m setting an alarm to catch the early games. It’s been awesome.

    Remnant 2

    I enjoyed the first but didn't complete it. Remnant 2 has much the same AA jank but it's fun as hell.

    I started playing roguelikes with flash Binding of Isaac I bought for 99p in a steam sale, pre-Wrath of the Lamb. I'm still playing Rebirth and its expansions well over a decade later. I'd describe it as the perfect game. Why it shines as opposed where other great roguelites don't is because of how the items interact with each other. The interaction is key. It's still pure joy to walk into a room and absolutely melt everything in a second because of a synergy you've never seen. And now I think about it, what really makes the roguelike genre a favourite of mine is where every run is a challenge from the game: break me. I'd point at Noita as another game with this philosophy. Being given a random selection of tools and trying to cobble them together into something unstoppable.

    I’ll probably wait for the PS5 release to play it. I’m assuming there’s going to be one. I had zero faith PoE1 would work on console but it was a very cool time.

    Not at all dude. Russia defended its land in an existential war against a fascism in way not dissimilar to what Ukraine is doing right now. I suppose the question is why does Russia 41-45 have the right to defend their sovereignty while Ukraine 2014-present does not? Don’t forget that the Soviets benefitted massively from US and British arms and equipment much like Ukraine today.

    Absolutely not, that’s ridiculous. I’m not automatically pro-russian (and therefore pro-genocide) because the US is supplying arms to Ukraine. I’m not pro-US either by any measure and never have been.

    In this current war, that Russia started twice (!), I am pro-Ukraine. That the US is supplying arms to Ukraine is not only something I can live with, it’s something I fully support

    Ukraine is fighting an existential war against a country that NATO was formed to defend against. Are you seriously suggesting that not defending your territory from a very literal and an extensively documented attempt at genocide is the only valid option in your world view? Because holy fuck guy.

    So the anti-imperialists are the ones who invaded twice and annexed Chechnya, rolled tanks into Georgia, invaded Luhansk, Donetsk and Crimea in a blatant land grab, levelled Syrian cities (which is ongoing btw) and used chemical weapons on civilians, aggressively pursued Russian interests in Mali, Libya and Sudan with the Wagner group, and started a full scale invasion of Ukraine which is ongoing… and they’re the good guys?

    It’s wild that you can look at them and say yeah, russia are the good guys in this whole thing lol. There’s a reason why countries want to be in NATO in 2023 and that reason is Russia.

    So just to wrap my head around this, the anti-imperialists are the ones who have invaded a sovereign country twice in 8 years?

    Second attempt at sourdough https://i.imgur.com/O45Ftdp.jpg

    This is my second attempt at sourdough, a hybrid starter/commercial yeast Pan de Campagne from FWSY. My first attempt tragically failed prior to baking as the dough straight up defied gravity by refusing to release itself from the proofing basket and got absolutely butchered when I tried to give it some assistance. It never made it to the oven. For this second loaf, my big mistake was not having baking paper to hand and needing to directly handle a boule that just did not want to be held, hence the growth on the side. I also forgot to spray the boule with water prior to putting the lid on the Dutch oven, and I believe this is partly why the oven spring is underwhelming. Nevertheless I’m happy with it for what it is - it smells fantastic and there’s some blistering on there. If it’s no good for sandwiches I might whip up some garlic butter and make some fresh garlic bread. And if there’s any left maybe I’ll do some croutons to slam in a pasta salad!
