Kiwix is probably the easiest way.

I’m sorry you don’t think people are being helpful but I don’t think the replies are useless, they just aren’t what you want to hear. This is a bad idea, have you considered what would happen if you get caught? You’d be lying on a government form, the TSA can fine up to $17,000 and potentially limit you from flying (which sounds necessary for your career). It’s up to you to choose but I would much rather ask my company to waive the requirement and explain why you feel that way before taking a risk like that.

“He said there’s not a country in the world that uses it now.”

Yes, blindly listen to what Putin says and ignore all the countries that do have working mail in voting.

Their neighbour?

From the info I found, the consensus is it’s a troll who found a way to abuse the Steam reporting. Apparently the list of games being hit by these takedowns is huge, like 25+ games.

Not code, but right now I’m having fun making a new electrical schematic based off an old drawing marked 1978. I will say, it’s drawn lovely, but so many of these parts haven’t been made in decades and finding replacements has been a challenge.

I know this is probably a joke, but yeah, I don’t buy it. I’ve been keeping an eye on earthquake maps and that region in Russia has been experiencing a ton of small quakes over the last few weeks leading up to this event. It’s also right on a fault line. If Russia somehow caused it, it wouldn’t be from a nuke as those can be detected even underground. It was very likely just an earthquake.

I’ve always wondered why politicians get a massive break in the summer, seems like a really bad idea to have the people running the country not around to do their jobs in case of an emergency. I know they can be recalled, but still, that takes time. This isn’t just a USA specific problem either.

That’s what worries me a bit as well. As far as I’m aware, they seem to be pretty safe for now? Nostalrius WoW was a big private server that got shut down by Blizzard, but they were located in the USA. Turtle WoW is based in Europe (UK if what I found is accurate) and has done transformative work to the game, including working on a whole new compatible client in UE5 that should be releasing this year. But the issue still remains that they primarily have Blizzards assets, story, etc as the base of their game. I guess time will tell, I’m hoping it sticks around though.

Depends what you like, but I’m still nostalgic for old school WoW and find myself wanting to play every now and again but don’t want to subscribe for a whole month. My recommendation for that would be Turtle WoW, it’s an expanded vanilla private server that has it’s own launcher and everything so it’s pretty simple to get started with.

I had to stop myself from downvoting you out of frustration for just reading that comment. Like jesus fucking christ, 100+ people died and they’re sitting on their ass worried about a ‘six-figure deployment contract’. That’s less than a million dollars! That’s fucking nothing at a government level!!!

This is only a good idea if you live in a small town or if the road doesn’t see much traffic, otherwise it is dangerous and illegal in some places.

I have a Milton Bradley Microvision from around 1979, the first handheld game system that used cartridges. I have the block breaker game, it still works but I think some components are wearing out as the game speed feels way too fast. Thing takes 2 9V batteries!

Congrats, it’s been fun seeing these posts!

Man, I remember when WestJet was like the best of Canadian airlines, but that was when it was owned by employees. Guess who owns it now? Private fucking equity. Not a single thing they don’t ruin.

Hmmm, no, couldn’t be the climate change we’ve been warned about for decades, it’s the chemicals the pilots are spraying secretly! If people are really dumb enough to eat this up, we’re fucked.

There’s this super dangerous one called H2O, apparently if enough accumulates in the atmosphere it will start to rain!

I think one of the biggest giveaways will be the voice recording and how they react to the situation. I doubt it will release publicly but it should give at least some idea to the Investigators.

And I was pretty surprised by the switches honestly, I figured they would have at least a guard and a spring loaded toggle, but it’s just the spring loaded toggle. Those are used a lot for any switch you don’t want moving accidentally, so it wasn’t super unique or anything.

Turtle WoW is great, I’m dreading Blizzard shutting it down though. I’m hoping they avoid them but I feel their upcoming remastered client might attract too much attention.

It’s possible it was intentional, but unless it was a terror attack from the pilot it doesn’t make much sense. Since there was no manifesto or any statement I doubt that. Suicide is technically a possibility, but why take a plane full of people and some on the ground with you? I know some people lose empathy and reason when they get to that point, but it seems significantly more likely to me that the pilot was fatigued and just did the wrong thing, hanlon’s razor and all that. Mistakes are more common than you would think, they’re just not usually ‘cut off fuel to both engines right after takeoff’ bad.
