I expect for China to remain neutral, at least officially. They have too much to lose getting involved. More profitable for them to be able to sell to both sides in the conflict.

Nothing, that's what. Putin is taking a page out of the Third Reich's playbook. Sanctions don't work on despots. They don't care if their people suffer. I hate to say it, I don't like violence, but Putin needs to be given a bloody nose.

Putin also claimed Russian troops weren't in Crimea despite all the evidence to the contrary several years ago. He doesn't deny it anymore.... Guy is ex-kgb. Lying is a big part of his playbook

What I find odd about the situation is that Putin is extremely right wing on most social issues and very visibly so. I just don't see why a noticable subset of left leaning people seem to support him.

Frankly the government shouldn't have anything to do with party affiliations anyway. Lists like that could easily be used for nefarious parties if the wrong people get into power. It's one of the reasons I'm still officially listed as 'independent'(that and as much as I know they are...

Shock, given my current age.

Been going on for awhile, unfortunately. Heck PATRIOT in the Patriot act actually stands for "Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism"

Gameloft is mostly known for mediocre mobile games, so my hopes aren't high for this one. Still the ONE decent franchise they own is one of the best mobile racing games, so there's a little hope there.

Hopefully it will be better than the last revival. Something was missing from the Comedy Central run. Hoping for DiMaggio's return as well.

The cancer has metastisized..... Sorry, Canada. Was really hoping the sovereign citizen thing wouldn't take hold outside the US. Whole thing is entitlement on steroids. Give me all the benefits of living in civilization (protection of property rights, access to healthcare and education...

Could always switch careers and become an information courier for hire. A small ship with that kind of speed could easily get through blockades and outrun nearly any pursuing ship. Would also work well for an assassin. Get in and get out quick, though it is a little flashy.

So... once again 4chan lives up to its reputation of being the Internet's cesspool. We need to get these guys a better hobby. Maybe we could convince them to take up knitting instead of following each other around the toilet that is 4chan trying to one up each other in depravity.

Looking forward to the new Mario Kart tracks.

Space/flight sims were my jam back in the 90s, so brain goes inverted. Granted I've never been a huge fan of the FPS genre, so I've never really had a reason to retrain my brain for non-inverted controls

Not sure about that. The solid red areas will likely stay solid red, but those purple zones could turn more blue with increased red die off. My only concern is even in those areas, the blue team is dying too as a result of the red team's method of offing themselves, just not in quite as large...

One can hope that even without GOP support, Cheney can win a primary challenge. She's still a Republican, but compared to what the GOP has been putting up as candidates lately, she's practically FDR.

The original Ghostbusters was a perfect storm. They had the right actors, the right writers and the right director to make it work. The second movie was much the same, though with more studio interference. Answer the Call tried too hard with the comedy portions hurting it overall. Afterlife...

Could also become the next Hitler or die young due to a drug overdose or end up being raped and forced to carry the child to term like her mother did.....

They ALL require a lot of redundancy and such to work. Proof of stake might have less environment impact than proof of work by an order or two of magnitude, but it's still a lot more wasteful than just using old school account bound database tech. The decentralization of the blockchain is...

Frankly, I hope he loses, and loses SEVERELY. The sooner we can course correct, even a little, back towards sanity, the better. I also wonder if he's violating any Michigan election laws with his rhetoric. If he were running for a Federal office, I KNOW he would be.(granted the R next to his...
