Why surprisingly?

198X seems cool. I tend to play lots of older games on my deck too, mostly old DOS/Windows releases which can run with Wine/Proton or Dosbox for me.

Been playing a bit of Close Combat 3: The Russian Front. Picked it up from the summer sale and I've been wanting to try this series for as long as I've known about it (I think I read about CC2 in a gaming mag when it was new). Fun game but not the easiest to get running and nobody seems to be playing the games in this series with Deck of even a controller so I didn't really find any controller mapping for it. WNot a huge issue since the game is fairly easy to control even with just a mouse.

I tend to play lots of strategy games and such that usually rely on the mouse quite a bit, the deck is such a great device for this use case.

It is no coincidence that those people all only managed to shift the narrative slightly. So now it’s the US that is their savior while all the useless Western European countries are weak and listening to Russian narratives. Exactly like they learned for decades from Russia belittle anyone and only accepting the US as their peer (because their propaganda doesn’t work without a dangerous enemy).

Read what you wrote... This does not really make much sense and mostly reads like the primary school level "analysis" that you see thrown around about how all Russians are the same and have always been the same. They actually currently do have a dangerous enemy in Russia so they have not needed to invent one at all. That much is obvious. They have not alienated themselves from the western european countries that are helping them in this fight but I'm sure most reasonable people would agree that has been happening pretty slowly... There are some valid reasons for that but from the POV of the Ukrainian people it absolutely makes sense that they are the ones advocating a stronger and faster response.

We have gone very far from what prompted this. Russia's ability to influence should not be overestimated and it should not be underestimated either. History has shown time and time again that it is relatively easy to get vast amounts of people to believe the most stupid bullshit. Most recently in the United States and in Russia. Such efforts need to be guarded against.

To bring things closer to what the subject of this community is, unfortunately one way this is becoming a significant problem right now is with the Republicans in America, the next president may well be inclined to stop supporting Ukraine.

Not surprising you wont, since you're also extremely condescending without having earned it in the slightest. Russian propaganda is being produced in english as well as other languages besides just Russian too but I guess you never heard of RT and the sort.

That said, misinformed rants like these don't have to be connected to present day Russia. People engage in them also thanks to deep rooted political ideologies dating back to the days of the Soviet Union and so on.

Well, it is good to get some indication that you're maybe not just trying to be an apologist for Russia after all.

I would suggest you think about how it comes across when you come in shouting about US war crimes on a Lemmy community about Ukraine in an article than concerns how USA is helping with the effort to investigate Russian war crimes though. Like I said it does warrant mention but when it is all you manage to talk about it looks pretty bad for you.

Would say it is fair to bring up the US refusal to recognize the ICC (we are on Ukraine community so slightly offtopic but no fuzz) but do you have anything to say about the investigation of Russian war crimes which this presumably will help with? Also your rhetoric is such that it sounds like you want to minimize them while trying to claim the US is "harboring so many".

What's the maths for that 10%?

I dislike the huge cut Valve takes from all the indies but with everything they've done in recent years with the Deck and Index has still won me over.

Same as with IE in the past. A little better with most of the source being open but not much. I wonder how we could solve this issue since people obviously don't care.

I think there's a demo video of these or at least similar Rheinmetall system on YT. Looks very effective.

LOL. Yeah, not going to do that.
