No. people don’t realize that Europe was primed for a war and was looking for any excuse to have one. If the death of Archduke Franz Ferdinand hadn’t happened something else would have come along.

I play mostly older games anyways. Like I said ArmA 3 is my favorite title. that’s 13 years old!
I just want higher resolution. 1080p is good enough for sim racing, but for anything else it’s kinda blurry.
Right now i have a super heavy, pain in the ass, kitchen table as a desk. its about 6 feet long and about 3 and half wide. But I want to get a lighter electric standing desk. so just picture your average electric standing desk.

21·10 days agoMost people who join the military do it because they have no other options. They come from counties where there is no work or hope. And the military gives them that. And the reason they will obey an order is because that’s how they were trained. It won’t be the grunts who will have to rebel, it will have to be Generals and Admirals, who will make that call.

23·10 days agoMost of them are dumb people who couldn’t think of a better option. Many joined just for the opportunity to get a license to bully, harrass and kill others.
That is definitely a sentence. 🙄

1·11 days agoYeah that’s what I use it for mostly. On DDG I’ll ask it stuff like someones age, or when did someone pass etc, to get a quick description of something. And if I need more info I’ll look it up on my own.
My memory of this is solidly locked into two core memories.
Let me preface this by first saying I was a severely asthmatic child growing up. And I wasn’t popular in grade school
At. All.
So my first core memory is when I was doing the running portion. I was gasping for air, could hardly breath but still trying my best. And i remember a bunch of kids shouting my name and encouraging me on.
And I fucking hated it.
It was the hypocrisy of it all. most of them wouldn’t even say hello to me in the halls. I knew the teahcers were just egging them on to do it. Probably to make me feel accomplished or something. what ever.
And the second memory was how meaningless the ribbons actually were. I pretty much [laced last or second to last in all of them. so Like someone else here, I got alot of last place ribbons. But after the event everyone was just milling around, and there was the box that held the ribbons. No one was guarding or anything. So I just went up grabbed a handful of No. 1 ribbons and called it a day.
I’m 54 and that memory is still clear as a bell in my head. Among other not so great ones…
