Which are totally badass ultimately lol

Great game that is a horror shooter, but I wouldn’t call it a MilSim though. MilSims are usually games like Arma or Squad.

This is the fallout from the technology industry shrinking and coming to terms with itself. See the crash of the Silicon Bank recently as an example. Basically as the positive outlook toward these kind of businesses and pursuits continues to mellow out we’ll see these companies look inward to squeeze as much money out of their products as possible.

I see that and you explained it well. I guess it’s the idea that in the debate it’s not about the merits of your ideas but things outside the debate that affect if you win or lose in this scenario that’s the problem for me. Point totally taken though that we’ll never fully remove the biases, I just think we should try to be as even handed as possible in these educational settings.

Very good point - I think however it’s worth noting the lack of the NSDA’s addressing of the judges biases and the high levels of debate within that organization the specific people oversee.

Regardless, and to the authors point, if an alternative org is provided that people prefer, it will gain popularity.

For something fresh I don’t see listed: Vegyn - Only Diamonds Cut Diamonds

Sweet, like 30 years to late and for a dying industry.

Super cool and great find. I always wanted one of these

This is super cool! Question though, can you play through different levels each attempt or does it always start at liberty island?

Super cool. Its out of scope for my field but the tool is great

Totally agree on 8 and even 11 appears to be busy despite their intent for the contrary. That being said I feel like 10 will go down in history with XP and 7 as being simple and usable. I could have blinders on though because I’ve been using it for like a decade now.

“Quick! Lets go to war on it!”

Same here and precisely why this kind of thing is the first best thing at helping you out when you’re feeling down.

How much did you pause? I felt like I just kinda let it go at full speed and paused as needed which I know put me in rough spots.

This game gave me a stress that I can’t really express in words. Something about getting so close to the end and barely hanging on. They really nailed the anxiety and pressure that comes with a situation like that.

It’s the pray emoji bro

Praise be 🙏

The US absolutely has its own set of issues, but I’m still not clear why you are unable to address the initial points made in regards to Xi and China and have instead changed the discussion to US flaws.

This was not a point on the mechanism of Democracy but rather Xi’s removal of the term limit he worked within. As it stands, the people of China have no systemic method to remove him should they overwhelmingly disagree with his policies and unless he steps down he’s in charge for life.

Democracy is broadly rule by the people. A leader for life without a mechanism for removal is one of many signs of a government that is not ruled by the people systemically. A benevolent dictator may rule in-line with the majority but should they not, the people have no ability to address it and make change at that level.

Further, no one has addressed the initial points made. Xi removed the ability for the people he rules over to hold him accountable. This is one of many indicators of an autocrat or one who is moving toward being an autocrat in full.
