Anyone have Hoi4?

I do, it just doesn't compare to EU4 or CK2 imo

after you cover all the major factions twice, it becomes boring af

True.

i have Hoi4 and I enjoy it, but I've been enjoying EUIV a lot lately

does anyone use the Gaming voice channel?

don't think I've seen anyone in it, ever

i don't use it

and i game a ton

no one to talk to here

alright, gone

yea smart move. the field was getting bloated

I have to take a break from EU4.

Failed my 12th Serbian Remove Kebab playthrough

hahaha

NEVER TRUST THE GERMANS

I just bought Crusader Kings II and will probably be playing that shortly. the learning curve on EU4 is insane

goat would back you up on that 😂

bwhahah yea slav missed the fun and games with goat today

hmm looks like hte discord server is still up. guess he hasnt hacked it yet

Oh I'm seeing some noise in the general

just trying to read through it

lol really

mass downvoting your posts for demodding you?

isn't he like 30 or something?

yes

it gets sweeter as you read along

and you haven't gotten to the good parts yet

also check pinned posts

for tl;dr

haha yea HFT pinned the threats

dear lord

this guy is unhinged

I wouldn't worry about it

yea, i had to tell him i don't want to do the podcast with him anymore

He just sounds like a failure that wants to make other suffer to make himself feel better

He's asking for a fight

who'd fight a cripple though

exactly. he was telling us he was going to dox us, and hack the discord server, and get his army of hackers to ruin our lives. moistly directed at heimat though

oh please

the guy can't get 150 people on twitch

and can't find a job

and can't cover medical

and is a pothead

but he has an army of hackers

sure

then the beauty of that... is that i asked him if he emailed my friend who offered him a job... no he did not. so now i feel like a fool for getting him a job he won't take

Yeah, no surprise there.

a really good one, too. I'm surprised he didn't jump at it

I'd be surprised if he could actually program in python, let alone in C#

If I was in his shoes I would've picked up a C# book and fucking started learning this shit

yea the job was small six figures, full medical and dental, 2 weeks off per year, 5 day workweek

Nice one. Wish I had more experience in C# - just started studying it recently.

oh cool. well if you need a programming job when you are done hit me up. My friend Chet is the VP or product development at a software development firm in Chicago. And I think they will help you get your visa to work in the US

Damn thanks for the offer man. I'll be sure to keep it in mind.

yea, i don't mind helping good people get jobs. i don't have thath many skills, but i have connections out the ass 😃

this can go on for a while

the website is looking pretty good btw

yea it does. feel free to join us on GoodReads and contribute. And vote for February's book. RIght now The Master and Margarita by Bulgakov is winning

Oh I read that in high school.

Decent book, but not my type per se.

seriously you read it in High school? I had to be turned on it it in a slavic lit class in 2009

yeah hehe, well - we read a lot of slavic books here

barely anything from the US - I think we did Poe at some point

And Hemingway

but that's about it

that is true, we read a lot of books by black women who can't fucking write like Toni Morrisson

Poe is good, Hemingway was a communist

never heard of her

ohhh she's the liberal's favorite author

Oh I love Poe, one of the few poets I really enjoy reading (not into poetry most of the time)

she wrote this piece of shit novel called "Beloved" which every american has to read until they understand that black women are the most powerful thing on earth

Hah

I read Poe's Tell Tale Heart and it scared the shit out of me, that was in junior high school

also there is a horrible book called "I know why the caged bird sings" by Maya Angelou with is just as bad

none of that here thankfully

i mean, just look at that title, doesn't it make you want to strangle the author with type writer ribbon?

we did things like "The Iliad", "Decameron", Shakespeare, Dostoyevski, Tolstoy, Goethe, etc...

yeah, it's pretty bad

goddamnit, that makes me mad

we read NONE of that in high school or my undergrad. i had to read it in a reading group I formed in grad school for Great Books from Europe

well....yeah...

you'd like our high schools and colleges a lot more I don't doubt

yea, i went to a US top high school, and the best high school in Texas that year, but we were overwhelmed with "diversity"

we had to read chinese poetry, and learn african tribal music. it was absurd

we had optional chinese poetry, I went once and never looked back

Hm, actually I think I used the wrong expression there

I mean, I never went again.

close enough, i knew what you meant. english is idiomatic so if you are kind of off we still understand the sentiment
