There are a few different ways fiction has dealt with that. Like one once you do it it updates time and you then remember it once you did it in the future, another you come back to there being two of you the non traveler who remembers and the traveler who does not. In some cases the world is changed but in others a new parralell world is made and sometimes the characters just don’t know. you could also have a thing where you return and everything is exactly the same but a parralell world was made that you just don’t go to when you return.

I can’t answer your question but can say why the heck should it matter. Why don’t we go after putin who we know has been bad for the globe for a very long time or what about netanyahoo and heck the kims. We may have done some shady things in the past but they at least followed international law (it might be debatable but not obviously ignoring it like this) or at least did it covertly because we still had some recognition it was wrong.

I mean its just like ukraine. take crimea and no one does anything. cool then try to take the rest. if no one says boo to that then maybe poland. nothing but hand wringing with venezuela so yeah he is going to keep on going. I mean its not like other countries are going to stop protecting us ip or anything else that might cause the big corps to actually work against him than for him.

It might be just a thing with so much media. I think older folks who were reading before the millenium remember authors names because reading was a very significant source of entertainment compared to anything else. So much so that books were made from movie series like the star trek and star wars ones.

I think clerks would apply. There was even two endings where one was less open.

Apologies. Robert Jordan is the author of the wheel of time series and I guess im used to speaking about him with wot (wheel of time) fans or such. I do the same with asimov (foundation and robot series), herbert (dune), and such. Its a bad habit.

Ugh. These args are tiring. Basically if you can point to anything historically then its always been bad and its never been better. What you talk about is something in mankind and has equivalents everywhere. The difference now is a baldface ignoring of the system the us is governed by and with international law. Previously shenanigans were done either by intrducing bs laws or fucking with the system or good old fashioned cover ups. This is literally 1984 newspeak now in the country.

fair enough. thanks for letting me know.

yeah I have this power gamer side that comes to the surface even though im not much of a power gamer. Its like I love table top rp but I gotta min max a bit. I will resist the impulse to choose min/max over rp but will min/max to the max within my story line.

shhhhhh

I know it because its the reason jordans wife chose him to complete the wheel of time series. Never read it myself but it would be on the list if I start reading a lot again which I thought was unlikely two decades ago but with enshitification I am moving to less and less tech.

oh yeah. regular soda can go a long time but the fake sugar you can’t leave sitting around for to long. Its like brown rice vs white rice.

Ugh. The its always been like this. It has never been like this. Since trump took office we are functioning in a way we portrayed russia as behaving in the 80’s. How well a country does is pretty closely aligned with how low the corruption is but we are so tied into the world economy. Ugh this is just bad for everyone.

watched the minecraft movie. wow. so bad. I frenkenstein was not very good but not the worst and felt like a pilot. watching k-19 the widowmaker and not bad but I recall it being a bit panned because I think the bad russian accents. been catching fallout as they come out. I mean its fine I guess.

Big fruit won’t be satisified till they have us all over a barrel!

I reccomend a jack of all trades build where you get 15 in all stats but technical. if you don’t have the dlc just put what you can in it but if you have the dlc then bring it to 20 and make int 16. This allows you to repsec your perks to pretty much do any style of play. also cyberware will get you an effective str of 20 for doors and such and if you have the dlc you will be able to do level 20 doors. just a few int checks will be problematic. if you don’t do an addon to change it then checks increase with level so its sorta good to prioritize str and tech until you reach your max for those stats and upgrade gorilla arms as soon as you are able every time.

still ff12 with the post draklor things. I had realized I had not made it a point of getting all the stuff from each map so besides all the side quests and espers and such im getting those. few more maps to check and not sure if im going to even try getting the cockatrice from rabinastre again. also not sure if im going to try fishing at all. hopefully will be back to story soon.

Editing this because I just did Zeromus and was having a tough time and online searches were not doing me very well. I finally found a guy who broke down whats needed which is essentially to use demon shield or black masks to absorb dark damage from his minions (I had one of each) and then there is an accessory which will reduce dark damage by half. Then use shades of black or attacks with items of course. In my case I put the black mask on the person I could get the highest magic power on that had shades of black and for the other two I pioritized who had remedy 1,2,3 and then potions/phoenix down improvement licenses. Of those I took the two I could push attack power up highest. Everyone was set to use phoenix downs, remedies, and x-potions. So I sorta forgot one of the things I learned in this game and I got into a remedy loop with all the minions. I turned off using remedy and potions for the shades of black user. Since so many black mage spells are area effect about half the time the shades of black will do an area effect that takes out the minions which starts to free up the other two to attack zeromus along with the shades of black damage. Because of my mess up at the start I still came close to having to put in the other three who were not so well setup to fight him. It did help drill in my head the nead for a team to essentially always have two stat removers, ressurectors and healers and dps and not to do three (it can be split between three but no more than two doing stat removal and healing as the activation condition can happen to often. resurction is fine as if that activation condition is happening to much your likely screwed) as it can get caught into infinite loops but not just having one as death or status effects can remove the one person doing it. sending aggro away from the dps is great but less necessary than the rest.

Every leader in every country should realize that having any interaction with the us could open them up to us justice. You never know what contraband could be on anything. Don’t import, don’t export, just stay away and build up your military.

we don’t need a crimanl president. we need a criminal. president.

there is no hope for pax americana anymore.
