Silent Storm was a fantastic game, one of my favorite tactical turnbased games.

Maybe I am missing something, but just adding weights to the lighter blades to balance everything out seems be the solution.

There are lots of how-to’s out there for how to balance ceiling fans with weighted clips, you should be able to adapt the process to your specific needs.

Suppose it depends on what you are looking for. In the Cary area, NYBD tends to be my go-to. Fantastic corned beef or pastrami specifically, but it’s all good.

Damn that’s insulting, putting B5 and Andromeda on the same level. And I say that as someone who enjoyed the first 1.5 seasons of Andromeda.

The worst B5 episodes are vastly better than anything in the last three years of Andromeda.

Unfortunately nearly every graph on that page is intentionally misleading. If you actually adjust the graphs for inflation (where it’s relevant), 1971 looks like just another year.

Lying with statistics!

Forgot the one everyone wishes they could forget - FTPS !

Might be worth noting that SCP is non- interactive file transfer only, whereas FTP/SFTP can do interactive sessions and management functions as well.

Go to Moscow, hang a left. When you hit the North Pole, head south…not, not that south, the other one! The other other one. After a bit, take another left for a couple hours, and you’ll arrive at your destination on the right.

Lol, really? One can’t control the fact that bad things happen. The west isn’t forcing either China or Russia to claim territory that doesn’t belong to them.

However, one can control how one reacts to said events. Help out where we can, and strengthen ourselves for the future.

There’s that whole proverb about crisis=danger+opportunity. The danger is there regardless…if you fail to seize the opportunity presented, well, you are pretty much guaranteed to come out the other side worse off.

Very few people WANT a war in Ukraine. But as China keeps adding dashes to their map, it’s pretty clear there’s a reasonable chance to be an even bigger war around the corner, whether we want it or not.

The Ukraine war woke the west up from its slumber, and it has allowed us to put the old stuff stuff cluttering our closets to good use, as well as test some new weapons concepts, and to get ourselves ready for the bigger conflict on the horizon.

If we are really lucky, China is looking at Ukraine and having second thoughts about kicking the hornets nest at all, saving a lot of lives on both sides.

If we are not that lucky, then Ukraine has allowed us to be much better prepared for the coming conflict.

So am I glad Ukraine happened? Not a bit. Can I see the silver lining thru the clouds? For sure.
