For Bethesda (and other compatible games), ModOrganizer 2 via SteamTinkerLaunch has worked reasonably well for me. There’s some jank involved but nothing terribly complicated for anyone who’s already used to Linux gaming hoop jumping. STL also supports Vortex but I’ve never personally tried it.

The Mobile Suit Gundam (1979) compilation movies are currently available on YouTube from Sunrise/Bandai’s own channel for free. Of course you can get anything on your list for free but it doesn’t get a whole lot more convenient!

You’ll find a lot of fans argue about whether you should watch the compilation movies or the original 43 episode series, but personally the movies are fine. You miss out on a lot of iconic 70s anime jank (the spike ball flail never shows up in the movies) but the story is more or less completely intact and modern Gundam tends to reflect the movies more than the series. All of the extremely un-subtle “Zeon is Nazi Germany” is still 100% there.

If you get hooked on Gundam though do not watch the Zeta movies. They’re weirdly animated because they switch back and forth between the original animation and 2004 animation and lots of the plot is changed.

This is the sort of thing the wording had me thinking. The meeting of the nuclear command authority was public knowledge, Pakistan clearly wanted everyone to know about it. But targeting of nuclear facilities or nuclear forces actually mobilizing? That’s the sort of thing that’d wake up the feds monitoring global intelligence extremely quickly.

CNN (yeah I know, media) reports that Vance’s involvement started after the US received “alarming intelligence”. I think later on we’re gonna learn how close this was to going nuclear and it’d make Able Archer 83 blush.

The whole idea of the Dragon Break/Warp in the West is one of my favorite pieces of game nonsense ever. Yes, all 7 endings of Daggerfall are simultaneously canon, because Akatosh got really drunk and so 7 different people all simultaneously obtained control of an artificial god and proceeded to do god things with it. Time just didn’t exist for a while, don’t worry about it.

Donald Trump says he wants nuclear talks with China, Russia

“Tremendous amounts of money are being spent on nuclear, and the destructive capability is something that we don’t even want to talk about,” Trump told World Economic Forum attendees in Davos during a video address, while also stressing the war in Ukraine needed to end soon.

The president said he had pushed for nuclear arms cuts in his first term. “So we want to see if we can denuclearize, and I think that’s very possible. And I can tell you that President Putin wanted to do it. He and I wanted to do it. We had a good conversation with China, they would have been involved, and that would have been an unbelievable thing for the planet.”

The big wet boy really wants his Nobel Peace Prize, huh?

Sylveon of course.

EndeavourOS (it’s basically arch btw)

In Japanese the official name is 新型コロナウィルス肺炎 (shingata koronawirusu haien) which is more or less equivalent to the Chinese, “new-type coronavirus lung inflammation”, but it hasn’t really been called that by anything other than government since 2020. Most of the time it’s just 新型コロナ (shingata korona), “new corona”. コロナ禍 (koronaka), literally “corona catastrophe” is the common term for the pandemic.

Funny thing is that across the JP sphere (including 2ch!) they’re mostly a mix of curiosity about the daily lives of Chinese girls and how it’ll differ from Japanese anime and nostalgia because it could have come straight out of 2014 Kirara (like Yuyushiki, Kiniro Mosaic, etc). Twitter manages to be more Hitler on behalf of Japan than Japan itself.

Is Neil Breen posting cheating? Though honestly Breen movies are so beyond bad that they’re an unmissable experience. Please watch Pass Thru, it’s got something to say, but good luck figuring any of it out besides “if Neil Breen was world dictator we’d live in a utopia”.
