Oh I was just making a terminids being bugs pun. It actually hasn't been that bad for me. There's definitely been issue here and there, but nothing game breaking for me lately!

True, especially against the terminids.

IMO yes. It's been coming back since they released a patch like 8 months ago that buffed basically everything. I still wish primaries had more ammo though.

My adult appointment for testing/evaluation was nearly 2 grand. I met my annual deductible in a month because of it. I'm fortunate enough to be middle class, so I could afford it, but I can't imagine someone making a lower end of middle class income just being able to drop that kind of money like that.

I mean, a congress member seems to be saying he can. If he "can't" he'll do it anyways, it'll go to the supreme court and they'll say it's fine.

Edit: apparently that's actually part of what Joe Arpaio was pardoned for.

Sure, but the president can (and will) pardon any of them.

I'd imagine it's not doable because of how quickly they'd develop insane amounts of heat.

Wasn't Trump literally trying to bring it back last time?

Diesel subs are also different kinds of beasts. They're terrible for international conflict, but for short range operations, they're silent. You can turn off a diesel engine, but not a nuclear reactor.

I mean the hardliners were definitely opposed, and Ben Gurion had misgivings.

You're talking 1947? The wiki article differs unless I'm misunderstanding you.

It's been a while since I've read about this, so I genuinely may be misremembering. Apologies if so!
