Holy shit just seen a few pages back that i posted those cosplayers instead of an ars tecnica tweet, sorry everyone
Half the fun of gaming is working out if you can remain undetected when shooting someone in the face while another NPC is blinking.After I had failed miserably on my first attempt at Dubai upon launching the game. Other games over the past few years since Hitman 2 have tarnished my perception of, well, AI perception in Stealth games. Yeah so it turns out the AI in Hitman aren't Numbnuts who can't notice you choking-out someone behind them.
Do we have a title yet?Tonight new thread will happen!!!
MetaSteam March 2022 - Gimme my SteamDeck, GabeN!Do we have a title yet?
And this is why you shouldn't assume you know everything from googling something for 5 minutes. What you refer to was merely an arms embargo that happened after the fact in 1975, ie, two turkish invasions later, one taking over 3% of the island then accepting a ceasefire, the second reaching 36% before accepting a ceasefire, which then led to the expelling of 150000 greeks from their homes in that part to be replaced with turks. You actually link a different embargo that only deals with the now occupied northern cyprus after its declaration of independence years later and doesn't mean much when turkey backs them. Anyway not the time to discuss cyprus' complex history (like many other countries it was the plaything of previous superpowers passed around between them like a joint) but If you consider it all a good solution as it came to be (and is now an "old" situation 50 years later so clearly nothing's going to change to as it was in the past in that regard beyond cyprus potentially becoming united and independent from turkey or similar if people can settle their differences at some point when the memory of the events fades further and if turkey doesn't do something similar again directly or indirectly) then why was I suddenly a putin apologist for saying that it seems like it was a good idea to have worked toward in the past ~decade to have an independent eastern ukrania with the russian speaking & aligned folks, without including an invasion or any killings inbetween? Because any business like that with putin means full support to any crimes he does? He's got lots of dealings with the west, is in the UN, did plenty of business before these embargoes in europe, so I guess they're equally responsible in that sense then, for helping him thrive, if me merely pondering things makes me an apologist. Maybe you can believe the invasion would have happened regardless but Mearshmeier in that video as more of an expert than me thinks otherwise (over Crimea at the time since it's an older video but still relevant).Sorry if I misread your position on Russia then. I still believe it is misguided to put blame here on the West as well, given how truly one-sided this entire affair has been from the very start.
The West has started very extensive sanctions against Russia, cutting it off from much of Western financing. These will hit much harder than anything that happened in 2014 after the annexation of Crimea. On top of which they are supporting the legitimate Ukrainian government with arms and financial support, against a foreign invasion that was entirely unprovoked, unless you are completely brain washed by Russian lies
Saying the West had no intervention in the Cyprus conflict is nonsense. It was NATO intervention (an embargo) that lead to Turkey quickly stopping their attack, and leading to a truce. Without it, who knows how many people could have died there. There is still peace on the island, and at least the chance for a future reunification if Turkish and Greek Cypriots can come to some agreement. That's not saying that this will be easy, but the whole thing doesn't strike me as the West having failed.
Actually no, forgot about that, please share some ideas.Do we have a title yet?
idk, something with the steam deck, considering it's basically this year's greatest thing yetActually no, forgot about that, please share some ideas.
i want to find the person who did this, and make them into nutella by cramming them in a jar until it turns brown
I wouldn't mind a longer talk on this, ideally in its own thread, not here. Let's just ignore this entire Cyprus line of discussion. It's a complex subject that can hardly be covered in a few sentences and you clearly have biases of your own here, and it feels like a pointless discussion when talking about Ukraine.And this is why you shouldn't assume you know everything from googling something for 5 minutes. What you refer to was merely an arms embargo that happened after the fact in 1975, ie, two turkish invasions later, one taking over 3% of the island then accepting a ceasefire, the second reaching 36% before accepting a ceasefire, which then led to the expelling of 150000 greeks from their homes in that part to be replaced with turks.

Correction:MetaSteam March 2022 - All hands on Deck
You don't respond to anything I said (you even say you'll ignore much of it outright because I'm the one with a bias because I refuted your misinformation while giving you the benefit of the doubt instead of call it intentional propaganda and call you an ethnic cleansing and military invasion and illegal occupation apologist) or any of the evidence and thoughts I have presented like said expert analysis which I bet you haven't even attempted to watch because you apparently know everything best already and will go around accusing people instead of debate. Ignored.You are
Rather concerning. Considering that one of Russia's major talking points when justifying this war is the denazification of Ukraine (while having very close ties to countless far-right groups all over the world including here in Germany) I find it unacceptable seeing someone linking to very obvious propaganda media while trying to both-side the invasion. And getting upvotes. I'll make use of the ignore-function for now because most here are good people and it's hard to discern what's what when shit hits the fan but, again, concerning.Super glad you just went and showed your whole ass by updating your post with links to an opinion piece by a Kremlin apologist and a site that echoes Putin's insane ramblings as a means of better explaining your point of view.
Perhaps this is my own naivety showing, but I couldn't help but feel a deep pang of disappointment that this went completely uncontested and even got liked, alongside other unsympathetic commentary, to put it mildly. Good-bye.
new leaks, lets goooNvidia "completely compromised" by cyber attack

Just... Wow.MetaSteam March 2022 - Ukraine, Prepare To Die edition.
What the fuck, dude?MetaSteam March 2022 - Ukraine, Prepare To Die™ Edition
I dunno, maybe time travel killer baby Hitler style?If someone here has a plan to stop Putin let's hear it.
The way things are this is fox in the hen house scenario.
Dunno how that relates to the suggestion you made for the March thread title, your suggestion is in extremely poor taste taking into consideration what's happening currently.If someone here has a plan to stop Putin let's hear it.
The way things are this is fox in the hen house scenario.
This doesn't make a very inappropriate joke ANY better. Just. Stop.If someone here has a plan to stop Putin let's hear it.
The way things are this is fox in the hen house scenario.
I think I preferred the cosplay tweet to be honest.btw this is what I wanted to post a few pages back instead of those cosplayers
you can follow me on twitter dot come for that! I guarantee your timeline won't be the same ever again!I think I preferred the cosplay tweet to be honest.
Ouch! I canceled my Elex 2 pre-order.Don't know if posted, but Shadow Warrior 3 for XBXS, PS5, PC, XB1, PS4 Reviews and ELEX II for PC, PS5, XBXS, PS4 Reviews.
Unfortunately Elex 2 looks and runs.... not good (article in German). I never had an issue with their games being behind the times visually, but the hardware requirements should then be appropriate. Hope you like Elden Ring's stuttering because you gonna get it here too.
I'll keep mine, gotta support local developers. And international reviews have never been kind to Piranha Bytes' games, I'm sure this one too will find its audience over time, but I honestly expected more polish after such a long development (didn't work out for Dying Light 2 either) and they need to seriously change things up for the next one.Ouch! I canceled my Elex 2 pre-order.
I like this one quite a lot xdMetaSteam March 2022 - Try finger but hole
I don't understand the referenceI like this one quite a lot xd
The summoning item in Elden Ring is a 'finger'. And there's tons of messages laying around saying 'try finger, but hole'I don't understand the reference
I looked into this too, because I only own the original. No idea about the exploit, but this guide covers the essentials (you need additional mods because DSfix causes issues with ladders/bonfires): Steam Community :: Guide :: One-Stop Guide to Essential ModsI've been planning to start Dark Souls (Prepare to Die Edition) on PC (to be my first souls game) and I have a question regarding the safety of playing it. I recall learning about an exploit that could allow people to run code on your PC through the game that would then make it possible for them to control your PC, steal logins, brick the computer, etc:
Dark Souls servers taken down due to an exploit ‘that could let someone take over your PC’ | VGC
PvP servers for Dark Souls 1, 2 and 3 have all been temporarily turned off…www.videogameschronicle.com
Apparently From Software took down the game servers out of precaution and plan to fix things in the future... Anyway I was wondering, is there any way to play it safely on PC? I just want to play it single player. Is the game even playable? Do you have to connect to servers to play single player? Or is the PVP stuff different? I haven't downloaded it yet, but I was wondering if someone can clear that up?
Btw, is this where DSfix is officially available: DSfix
Or is there a safer site to get it from? I'm not familiar with the modding scene, and I'm obviously late to DS in general.
