Only France and the UK could even get there. Maybe?

2018-10-26 23:41:24 UTC  

Actually, no. UK has no ability to get there. And France could barely get to Libya.

2018-10-26 23:41:32 UTC  

UK hasn't finished training with F35s on their carriers.

2018-10-26 23:42:08 UTC  

They could use their Tomahawk and Exocets from ships I s'pose

2018-10-26 23:45:51 UTC  

Sucks to be in Seoul, tho

2018-10-26 23:45:58 UTC  

Look, just put one guy on a canoe and sent him over there with a flag that he stick in the ground and declares the conflict started again, and I'd be happy.

2018-10-26 23:46:06 UTC  

oh yeah seoul is fucked regardless

2018-10-26 23:47:29 UTC  

now they're negotiating some conventional disarmament which will honestly be really helpful for both sides.

2018-10-26 23:47:49 UTC  

north korea expends way too much of its meagre gdp on a military that would be suicidal to use

2018-10-26 23:48:07 UTC  

ooh, Saints Row 4 on steam sale. I'll take that president.

2018-10-27 00:23:06 UTC  

Is the Steam Halloween Sale finally going?

2018-10-27 00:27:24 UTC  

ah, talking about steam sale, metro 2033 was free yesterday

2018-10-27 00:27:32 UTC  

i can't play it, but i was able to add it to my library

2018-10-27 00:27:59 UTC  

there are a few others they made free, just go through it all and add them, even if you can't play them now.

AFAIK, you get to keep them all.

2018-10-27 00:28:18 UTC  

Sometimes you have to actually install + play some to keep

2018-10-27 00:28:29 UTC  

I think you don't even need to install the client. Just make an account, even if you're not sure if you're ever going to play them.

2018-10-27 00:28:42 UTC  

And sometimes you can keep, but still have to pay to paly at a later date

2018-10-27 00:28:59 UTC  

The last ones I added are still showing up and started after sale ended.

2018-10-27 00:29:07 UTC  

But, I think I also remember some thta would no longer work.

2018-10-27 00:29:10 UTC  

So, I am not sure.

2018-10-27 00:29:20 UTC  

<#464233883303673868> ?

2018-10-27 00:29:24 UTC

2018-10-27 00:29:26 UTC

56 year old "wanted father figure" "father abandoned him as a child" and "he was trying to create an identity."

2018-10-27 11:06:39 UTC  

🤔

2018-10-27 11:08:32 UTC  

No one is gonna believe that on a jury.

‘We are preparing for war’ Russia issues SHOCK warning over US withdrawal from INF Treaty

2018-10-27 13:01:08 UTC  

Daily Reminder that the Obama admin found Russia in violation of the INF 5 years ago because of the Iskander-M

2018-10-27 13:02:30 UTC  

Then why not work to bring Russia back into compliance? How does the death of this treaty make the use of nuclear weapons less likely?

2018-10-27 13:03:19 UTC  

This *is* working with Russia to bring them back into compliance.

2018-10-27 13:04:03 UTC  

Russia doesn't want the US to develop new weapons because the US has way, way, **way** more money to spend and makes way better weapons in general.

2018-10-27 13:04:15 UTC  

So Russia badly wants this treaty.

2018-10-27 13:04:53 UTC  

But Russia also needs to deter China and India, which are soon going to surpass them in technology.

2018-10-27 13:05:50 UTC  

Trump's offer will probably involve the US and Russia working together to get either India, China, or both to sign into a new INF.

2018-10-27 13:07:01 UTC  

This follows the same pattern that Trump has followed with other renegotiated deals. Scrapping or threatening to scrap a deal that the other party wants badly is the first step to get them to make concessions. In this case Russia needs to give up their Iskander-M systems.

2018-10-27 13:07:48 UTC  

You need to internalize the idea that the US is strong. We are the strong party. We do not need to make concessions or compromises - others do.

2018-10-27 13:13:00 UTC  

But I keep seeing in the end little change or Trump even being taken advantage of. I'm having trouble seeing the win that comes from this and can easily see the damage it causes.

2018-10-27 13:13:32 UTC  

I mean the NAFTA rewrite was pretty minimal. And NK is still developing nuclear warheads.
