People were sharing all sorts of conspiracy theories about how Bethesda is trying to erase F1, 2 and NV from history before Howard did the interview, like here: https://www.pcgamer.com/movies-tv/in-which-i-mostly-debunk-the-latest-fallout-controversy-that-claims-todd-howard-used-the-fallout-show-to-retcon-non-bethesda-fallout-games/#article-comments

It's tiresome to see the wrong interpretation repeated, even after they set the story straight.

Personally, I feel they always intended the fall to be the nuking, but someone put the wrong date on the blackboard, and now they're trying to get the story straight again :P It does allow for some interesting possibilities, though.

The timeline in the show only says "The fall of Shady Sands". While that was unclear, Howard did explain it, and it's ridiculous to keep sticking to the whole "they deleted Fallout: New Vegas from canon" theory.

Vitesse-Feyenoord (Dutch top league, Feyenoord is in second place). The pitch was shit, Vitesse played like butchers, but somehow Feyenoord managed to win anyway.

Also, PSV (in first place, now ten points ahead) lost their first points this season in a draw against FC Utrecht, so the title race has become a bit more exciting.

I don't think PSV will give up their lead, but apparently there is a way to not lose against them. Feyenoord and PSV are playing each other on Wednesday for the cup, so that's an exciting prospect.

For me, it will start feeling "right" about 15 minutes after I start studying or working. You need a while to get into it, to get warmed up.

Fuck not cropping out the reddit bar.

Also, try to analyze the problem from a broad perspective. If you always get stuck in a defensive position and then lose, try looking up theory for working from a defensive position. Or you can work improving your openings, so you take the initiative early on. There's loads of theory available online, so you don't have to do all the thinking yourself

Look for the first obvious (unforced) error you made, and try to work on that. The rest of the game is influenced by that first error, so for now, it's a lot less relevant. E.g. it's more useful to focus on not losing your Queen unnecessarily than to practice being down a Queen.

Could it be comparable to the rise and decline of Westerns?
