  1. Just done my 2nd play-through of Elden Ring. Sooo good. Love that game. Hopefully they do more and bigger dungeons for the DLC, and make the game a bit more challenging. I was thinking about doing another Dark Souls 3 run, but then I saw Nioh 2 and Citizen Sleeper in this months humble bundle. So, right now I'm playing Nioh 2. This game is hard af. A lot of the difficulty seems to depend on how well you know all the game systems, and on what weapons, armor, and stances you use. It's not just timing and stamina-management. I love the setting though. And once you get the hang of it, it really clicks,... until the game throws another impossible boss your way.

Napoleon in Egypt: Part 2: Napoleon's invasion of Ottoman Syria and the failed Siege of Acre, and the defeat of the Ottoman Turkish counter-invasion at Aboukir: Learning from Starfish Prime, Nuking low earth orbit would cause a powerful EMP: (Pretty bad for electronics, like satellites.) But it might also cause beautiful auroras, so, worth it. The strength of the 4 fundamental forces (strong nuclear, electromagnetism, weak nuclear, and gravity) is actually different for different distances: For a long time, we actually haven't been able to tell the sex of dinosaurs, or if dinosaurs even had different sexual morphological characteristics: Nuclear bombs and the bad stuff after a nuclear war: (spoiler: Best survival chance in Argentina, Australia, and New Zealand. Maybe.) Boring. (horizontally) Blue LED, almost impossible: Cosmological time dilation (and redshift) caused by the expansion of the universe: RedLetterMedia: Madame Web movie review
  3. Absolutely fucking disgusting this war. An atrocity. How can humans be so full of hatred and utter apathy. And none of our leaders dare to stand up and put a stop to this madness. This world is going down the shitter, isn't it. All downhill from here. A sad fucking shitshow. I'm really losing my belief in humanity... Or maybe I'm just concerning myself to much with all the bad things happening in the world. Just take it as it is maybe. Do small good things. Gotta keep sane and stay happy in daily life in this clusterfuck. I don't know.
  4. I agree. Keep the forum free. It can be done. Otherwise new people would be discouraged too much to join I think. Gotta keep the community alive. (and growing) Ideas: If possible: • Notify subscribers yearly with a pop-up. Some subscriptions might just expire without the subscribers really knowing. • Notify non-subscribers once a year with a pop-up saying that subscribing is a good way to support the forum. • Show a small "Like watmm? Support the forum." or "Keep watmm ad-free? Support the forum." or "Like talking about music and nonsense? Support the forum." line on the top of the 6 main forum hubs if you're not a subscriber. • Give subscribers a subscriber-only reaction-emoticon and/or subscriber-only reply-emoticon. • ...
  5. I want to be excited about new tech... but it seems so very dystopian to me. It almost activates a primal fear in me. Weird. Can't really explain it. Maybe this tech really is inevitable. In that case we better get used to it. Maybe a bit too distracting to use this in public? But then again, so were smartphones. Or will this tech stay more confined to work and home-entertainment, and these are just early adopters testing the waters? Anyone here has this, and willing to share their experiences?
