    Off topic a little, but what are some good anime youtubers? I think Mothers Basement is one of the lest awful, its hard to find anything good, if there are some leftist that would be a godsend. I think Noralities are pretty good, but they make more of a video essay on anime. I also like hazel.




  • On my second playthrough I tried peaceful. scientific win, with mars colony as my main object. Got to last era, get tech for colony, nope i need oil to send rockets. I dont have any oil, nothing in my teritorry. Check AI, nope zero oil, no one have oil. Just iron, copper, coal etc. Check whole map, zero oil wtf. Played on largest map so maybe it have something to do with spawning resources. OR I'm not aware of some mechanics, and maybe if other AI doesnt see oil in its territory then i cant see it on my map? Had to abandon this playthrough, game seems very nice, but I get very confused at what should I do. Game mechanics are not clear for me right now, I propably jst watch people play on youtube for now. Or get back to Workers and Resources: Soviet Republic.






  • Maybe I'm wrong but is it propane canister? If it is, how its supposed to work? Thats a heavy ass (I presume) canister, there must be a shit ton of those balloons, you could see it from kilometers away, so not exactly sneaky. I suppose they can use wind for navigation, but wouldn't be really dificult at all to aim it? This looks like propane can literally attached to baloons, there isnt any mechanism to make it explode, at worst it would kill someone if it would fall accidentally on someone head. I know baloons were used to cary bombs historically, but it doesnt look right to me? AM i talking from my ass here?

    There are literally whole fake ass forums with strange names. Those forums copy whole threads from legit sites, but put some ads/links to malware between posts. I've seen myself when I was looking for some stuff

    BMW also makes buses, so they can still win this either way. Remember to push your local city council to buy our super sustainable BMW buses, dear consumer :)

    I explicitly remember from school in Poland on the subject of polish uprisings in XVIII century, that peasants used modified scythes with blades turn upward. I remember it specifically because i grow up on farm, and used scythe myself to cut grass. It was always funny to me when in games scythe is presented as weapon and its blade is not turned upwards, as if someone heard about war scythes and imagine it was being used to mow people like grass lol.

    Here is image from Raclwickie panorama about Kosciuszko uprising, which saw use of scythemen (kosynierzy):

    Going from laptop with 2 core i5-2410M, 4gb ram and Radeon 6770M to one with 6 core i7-9750H, 32 gb ram and RTX 2060 felt so amazing... Cooling on laptops has improved so much from 2011. Also not having to deal with constant problems with intel + Radeon switchable graphics, i will never forget leshcatlabs for doing gods work with custom drivers


  • Nowadays Im looking for really long videos, few hours each, usually put them when playing some chill game, preferably some kind of city buildng, or CKIII recently. Recently I got in into Resident Evil lore/retrospective videos, which is pretty fun. Noah Caldwell-Gervais was my favouite go to channel but I've already watched everything.
