Super basic, but have you already tried using the compatibility mode? If it runs in a Windows 98 VM it should theoretically work with compatibility mode set to Windows 98.

Native solutions are best, if they're effective.

Yeah but the current build of libvegs has some conflicts with libfruit, so if you need to use both you have to build libvegs in a different directory and then simlink it in /lib.

Oh definitely, they can't all be deployed at once - but the ability to rotate them out means a sustained presence that nobody else can achieve. And the point is really more about the organization structure that supports those carriers and their accompanying battle groups - the US can control any part of the ocean anywhere in the world, for as long as they want. That kind of force projection is hard to compete with.

I just fired a gun right next to your head, neither of us was wearing ear protection, and now we're having a conversation at normal volume and we can understand each other just fine.

Bonus points for grenades going off indoors, and nobody having a concussion after.

Especially with all the deadly spiders and wasp nests and scorpions that come in Temu orders and shit.

Is this actually a thing? or hyperbole?

Heh, I would've paid to watch Zuck beat his ass, but he chickened out of that one.

The purpose of the UN was to prevent World War III. That's all.

It was never intended to be a global government, it was never intended to prevent all conflict, it was never intended to be a perfect organization.

Expecting the UN to exist without corruption, or to effectively prevent all wrongs across the world, is to severely misunderstand what the intended goal is or what any collective group of humans is even capable of.

“Ok for those of you that haven't figured it out I got my wings clipped and they weren't gentle about it- so there's not going to be much posting on social media anymore and only on very specific subjects. I can leave but Kaidi can't so we're just going to follow the new rules and that's that. Nothing personal if I don't like and reply like I used to. I'll be focusing on the store and the occasional video. Thanks for understanding, it was fun while it lasted”

Naomi Wu mentions briefly on her silencing and how she is not nearly as safe as she was before now that it’s obvious to the Chinese government her disappearance won’t cause an uproar of bad press making China look bad.
