JFC… watching this Trump cabinet meeting should make any normal person puke 🤮🤮🤮

I’ve never seen this much "kissing @ss in my lifetime! How is this worshipping normal to any degree?! I don’t care if the president is Trump or some any other president, this type of love affair is sick. These people have given up all their integrity or self esteem (if they ever had any) to ONE guy.. no one is worth that, no matter who you work for.

Somedays you just have to tune it out, for your own sanity.  Elect a clown, expect a circus.  

New term, same moron! (stolen from m-hunt)

Now back to a normal scheduled program.

I really don't have a lot of time. That's why I have like 3 hours on Civ 7, which was on a flight for a vacation with just me and the wife.

I also have to get up at 5 to get workouts in. it sucks.

Yeah I have seen that one. I don’t have a gaming PC built but eventually when I do I’ll probably throw that on in addition to DCS but the latter requires some extra hardware. On PS5 I’m playing a ton of Arma Reforger and Hell Let Loose. 
 

On my laptop I’ve only got one game, which is the game only the coolest of cool kids play.

Ultimate General: Civil War. 

Ready or Not was the closest thing I could find to the OG Rainbow Six games (pre- console era.) One problem with DCS is that it's not great when you only have small chunks of time to play it, separated by days or weeks at a time. The learning curve isn't insurmountable if you've played actual flight sims before, but trying to pick it back up after a couple weeks requires a lot of relearning functional processes, key bindings, etc. 

As a 12 year old I would've loved it (Jane's ATF days) but now I don't have nearly as much time to commit to it.

That's the problem, I might have 30-40 min after they go to bed before my brain ctrl-alt-deletes on its own and I fall asleep on the couch or get so drowsy that I stumble up to bed. On weekends I might have an hour or so, but even then it's inconsistent. Was much easier when they were younger and went to bed earlier.

Yeah oddly enough I already have the keybindings memorized for the airframes I’d like to purchase. Never played ATF. I was more of a fighters anthology guy.

 

The COD reboot was enough to scratch my itch but they went full cartoon and BF 2042 was such an ish show that I figured the hell with it and decided that I would just pick up simulators again. AAA gaming is so ish these days that they couldn’t even do NCAA 25 right.

Then you did play ATF. Anthology just combined Navy Fighters, ATF, and one other Jane's flight sim (name escapes me). It would be similar what the kids these days refer to as the "deluxe edition" that includes all the DLCs.

The campaign missions for Neptune Spear and the Benghazi attack are pretty damn fun to play. They took some liberties of course, but it was cool to see a big budget game developer take both of those on.

I couldn’t remember the planes from ATF being in anthology, but I only played the Vietnam and ironically the Ukraine campaigns. I was big into Combat Flight Simulator, but for warbirds now it’s basically an ok DCS or a really good IL-2, but obviously with the latter I’m not paying for a Russian product.

Yeah, those were fun missions.  MOH was alright just a bit linear. Warzone was great because I could just use actual tactics to wipe the floor, but then they started to lean into the streamer microtransaction crowd and it ruined it.  I think they realized they Fd up with the recent "return to verdansk” but I haven’t played it yet.

The Trump administration was handed another win on Thursday after a federal judge ruled that everyone in the U.S. illegally must register with the federal government and carry documentation.

If they are here illegally why on earth would the voluntarily go sign up to get documentation? 😂 yeah huge win, you got the illegals lining up to get legal.   It’s that simple.
