I would, but I don't know any Vietnamese and I don't have the ability to parse any primary sources. The place I learned it from was another secondary source.

The distinctions and categories being drawn here seem arbitrary. You could make this kind of list a thousand different ways.

It's very telling that there are so many more news stories about this guy than about the family that the Killed CEO left behind. The papers know who everyone actually wants to hear about.

It's online too, so people are playing from around the world!

Not remotely a defense of the game/series, but it was pretty typical of Command and Conquer. That franchise has always been about absurd caricature and edge, and the Generals series was just their attempt to transplant that onto what they perceived as the "real world" of the day. IMO you can see some of this tone in the original Command and Conquer game as well, before it went all sci-fi, and absolutely it's a huge part of the Red Alert series.

There is still a competitive community for this game. You can get on GameRanger and play people online.

EDIT: It's a bit technical, so here's a tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-KB_wMLGFJk

Damn... RIP to a real one.

This seems very unlikely. A VP is an exotic weapon that would be difficult to obtain, and relatively few gun sellers/distributors would have one in stock. For those wondering, a VP differs from a standard pistol quite significantly. Most ordinary handguns are either slide-based guns or revolvers. If you've seen a 1911 or a Beretta or whatever, the slide is just the part at the top of the gun that moves back and forth when you fire, and you all already know what a revolver is. A VP on the other hand is actually neither - while the design resembles one of the slide pistols, it's completely manually operated, essentially a bolt-action handgun. This is deliberate - the sound of the slide slamming back and forth between shots is actually quite loud once you deal with the noise from the explosion, and the opening where the brass casing is ejected also provides a route for gas to escape the chamber without going through the suppressor, so making it manually operated removes a source of noise. The design is very similar to the Welrod pistol developed for use by British special forces in WW2. Basically I'm saying this is a really weird gun that has very little purpose outside of murking people and it's very unlikely he had one.
 
Also worth noting, in regards to US firearms law, suppressed weapons and suppressors join automatic weapons, explosives, anti-material rifles, and sawed off rifles/shotguns as one of the few kinds of firearms that are restricted. You have to register with the government in order to legally purchase one. What does this mean? If this were an ordinary handgun, he could purchase the gun legally without registering and either source a generic suppressor from the black market or manufacture one himself to screw onto the muzzle. The VP however has an integral suppressor - it's not an addon or accessory, it's built right into the gun, you can't get a VP without it. This means you'd have to get the whole unit as a package deal, either from the black market (with great difficulty, as this is an exotic item), by stealing from an existing owner, or by registering and purchasing one legally, which is much more difficult and expensive.

It will look real nice when it's done!

May I have some shoes?

I've been using it just fine, but I also use it the same way that I use Twitter. I mostly just followed the Chapo boys and my Internet art friends and put it on Following only, instead of interacting with randos.

I said as much in the post, but it's not over until it's over. Bets are for the formal declaration.

The counter to siege tanks is lurkers, everyone knows this.

I would assume most court systems, including that of Canada, also work in approximately this way.

Boo! Bad decision!

I'm not against a rename/rebrand, but the entire appeal of the community is that it was low-effort mockery. I'm not going to philosophize about why something is wrong, the entire point was that the stuff there was all the things that weren't worth engaging with. Call it c/heckling or something
