Made me sad. It was one of the few examples of fiction where the main protagonist was a collective, not an individual, without losing emotion. And they gave it up for a mother-daughter plotline.

We are KPAM pilled, we are in our Great Leap Forward era, we are working on our backyard iron smelting.

Good to hear the Basque Space Program is still active.

Ive always found his character to be a bit 2.5 dimensional.

We do not, and we unironically have a parade about how cool WW1 was.

This has been true for long haul carriers like Etihad/Emirates for over a decade. I very occasionally have to grow a lanyard and fly business class, and the food is generally equivalent to a reasonably good restaurant, and a very good restaurant in first class (I've heard, I don't rate that.)

Of course if you need to do a 30 hour flight and then get straight to work with no downtime you want it to be. But flying non-economy is really a different world if it's the Aus-Europe/Aus-NA routes.

As you can see this objective test portrays me as the chad and you as the soyface.

Much with cyberpunk libs took all the shiny white singularity dyson sphere bullshit and none of the "they made capitalism sentient and it ate the humanity of everyone who took part in it , then itself, then promptly collapsed into a post apocalytic economy made entirely of grifts."

I think it was a mistake, but an understandable one by the Ural Soviet, given the Legion was advancing on the town and there had been major (somewhat justified) anarchist/SR riots in the town shortly before.

They were not to know the situation was stabilising. They thought the political situation was getting tenuous and, well, can you imagine the Czech Legion with the Tsar or his children under control? Or the SRs and Anarchists with the same (which could go any number of ways, many worse than what happened)? People panic, and when they panic they do dumb shit.

This game fucking shits me. The three main factions are technocratic capitalism and Libertarian petty bourgeois capitalism and hyper libertarian cyberpunk corp capitalism.

Theres a small faction of yeoman farmers but thats as close as you get

There's a fucking town called Gagarin Landing that's currently being literally midgar'd by a corp and there's a literal statue of Gagarin and still, still, they couldn't commit to some socialism.

There have been advances just south of Robotnye, but like....500 metres before stalling. There is a more serious point of contention just to the east though where it looks like Ukranian forces have finally made contact in force with the first main defensive line.
