The original being "This film is dedicated to the gallant people of Afghanistan." See, for example, this review from 1988

And they intentionally shake the gameplay up with each installment. I'm glad they do. Otherwise there's little point in doing a new one

Missing out on the truest of Civ victories: declaring war on literally everyone and nuking their capitals one turn before you win a science victory

I am also definitely not coming into this with any expertise, but reading the linked paper about it looks at least somewhat promising to me. The ingredients are silica (sand) and a couple of cellulose derivatives (cellulose being what plants are mostly made of)

With all due respect this is literally just a guy saying that he's personally better at reading analogue clocks than digital ones for 18 minutes

Hexbear's site culture is full of in jokes and big on dunking. That's always going to be abrasive to outsiders, even without the whole thing where all of their many emojis were enormous on other instances

It's essentially where reddit's old Chapo Trap House community went after reddit banned them in 2020. It started federating with the rest of the fediverse some time last year, but there was a bit of a culture clash between it and some other larger instances and several of them defederated it

ES6 for sure. It doesn't matter how long it takes Bethesda, Bethesda aren't currently getting paid for it while SC continues to rake in utterly unjustified wads of cash on a vast scale

It's fucking wild that the biggest news we've had about a highly anticipated game since it was announced six years ago is that an artist working on it left his pinterest public
