Although the show is pissing me off its clear that Tim Cain, Leonard Boyarsky, Jason Anderson, Chris Taylor, Mark O'Green, Scott Bennie and Christopher Taylor from Fallout 1 definitely did get somethings right ie the US trying to invade Canada.

Standard US playbook. Find lackeys who want to destabilise and split a country and fund their coup.

Currently there is no movement, just a national level reaction. A movement requires leadership, a significant level of coordination and mobilization, very specific set of demands and goals, and an underlying message/philosophy that is backed by the general public. We currently have non of this.

Which is why I'm so pissed at the democrats and not just the liberal right wing corpo ones but in particular AOC, Bernie and the other members of the progressive arm. They should be leading a general fucking strike.

And not just them but those adjacent to the party ie Jon Stewart, Colbert and Steph (and all the rest of the YouTube / social media sphere talking heads). Not only have they made incredibly lucrative careers attacking Trump, speaking truth to the insanity of the last ten years (because even under Biden it was always still about Trump), making it clear trunp is a clear and present danger to all.

I'm sick of their never ending jokes and serious moments.

A call to fucking action is required. The world is watching whilst you say your pretty, empty, words.

The time is now.

there are times when the process can be shortened in an an emergency, like Covid.

The core reason why covid RNA vaccines were developed and released far quicker then a normal drug or vaccine is due to the size of the trials, especially the phase I and II trials.

Basically most infectious diseases don't really affect huge amounts of humans. Pandemics are rare.

However on the flip side is that you have small pools of people who are at risk of being infected.

However the covid pandemic massively increased the number of people at risk of being infected, especially those in the phase III trial. Consequently the efficacy of the vaccine could be easily identified.

And there were shit tons of people willing to be part of the testing.

That's why the development got super charged.

That and a huge amount of money (oh and it didn't hurt that the RNA vaccines tech had been in development for years prior. Kinda perfectly positioned for the perfect storm we faced)

Omg this is my wife. I can only send her a single message/list. Dare to add anything on and she'll end up coming home with a pink cowboy hat and a table tennis paddle.

I have a friend (well more of an asshole I know) and he acknowledged that they actually need people to quit within a month of signing their 12 month contract because they don't have the space nor the capital to expand the gym in order to provide the contracted service to.

It's just like the ISP business.

20% of users generate 80% of the traffic. If the rest of the customer base used the service at level your local ISP would collapse.

And the same with banks.

Shit. Everything is a fucking lie isn't it

Elise Cutts reports that its "just 146 light-years away." Just!

Approx 1.38 quadrillion kilometres

Like one light year is approx 9 trillion kilometres and yet we're still able to take a fricken observation of a planet 146x that incredible distance.

Pro fascist and heavily AI moderated now.

I made two jokes using Australian colloquialisms and the system banned me twice for "threatening violence".

And you only get 200-300 characters to try and explain it.

Wtf.

Can you expand on this for a newbie?

×but the 2 hour modding process is a big turn off

Nexus mods has things called Collections that are packages filled with mods that the collections author can even update and maintain.

So you use vortex, and you can install an entire collection of mods, point and click. It's all auto configured, vortex and collection author work out the order and compatibility.

It's great, you can have 300 mods installed and working without opening a single ini file.

And there are heaps of collections for FNV.

The call was coming from inside the house on that one. Fucking liberals sold us out

Or they fabricate cheap wireless (or wired ie optic fibre) eyes that they scatter across the Battlefield.

You could then use these systems to provide direct and indirect fire coordinates.

Updated versions of what the US scattered across Vietnam during Operation Igloo White

Shit you could probably just do seismic sensors now without any optical or microphone system and it would provide a heap of data.
