Still, the ultimate fate of the Islamic regime seems sealed now. They can’t keep ruling like this.
North Korea is far worse off, and yet it continues. No reason the regime has to fall only because of popular opposition, unfortunately.
From what I know of it I dislike the Venezuelan government but I doubt this attack will lead to anything good.
Non-central fallacy is a related concept I remember coming up on SSC.
Motte-and-bailey is also a related concept.

As far as I know it's never been proven that any such drones are real and not misidentified planes, birds, etc.

I remember back in MW3 my best setup was 2 or 3 ER large lasers + the rest heat sinks. You can snipe most enemy mechs from out of their range that way, with some heat management.

I also question the assumption that Asian immigrants would be much different.
There's all types of people everywhere, but at least in my anecdotal experience the distribution is different.
wonder if I should use a sperm bank to make the kids all-Chinese instead of just half
I'd strongly suggest against this, kids are orders-of-magnitude safer with their biological fathers than with step-fathers.

If you're looking for a more traditional but still secular romance, first gen immigrants from Asia might be a good option (if that appeals to you and there are any where you live).
Currently playing and enjoying it, especially the aesthetics. I suck at parrying in every game that has it but with the difficulty on easy and with the right passive abilities I can mostly ignore that.
The dreamy beauty of the overworld (especially with that music) is a particular high point.

Played classic in 2019 and a bit of SoD but my guild eventually fell apart in SoD phase 3 and I lost the motivation to continue.

What I've read is that the magnetosphere doesn't matter because the atmosphere blows off very slowly (millions of years) so if you can create a new one in the first place you're fine.
I visit this place less than I used to, partly because post-Elon twitter has filled the uncensored political discourse gap, but also partly because these overly-strict rules have led to too many long-winded, low information density posts dominating this thread - and some interesting events going entirely undiscussed, presumably because no one can be bothered to write 10 paragraphs about it to avoid being modded for low effort.
