First person: mouse and keyboard. Third person or controlling vehicles: game pad.

At least for me.

Yes

Happiness and rage are not antonyms.  The wokes discovered they can be complimentary a while back, the Trumpists more recently.

Is anyone following the brouhaha about Chapelle, Bill Barr et. al. performing for the Saudi royal clan at the Riyadh Comedy Festival (or whatever it was called)? Do you have any opinions on the topic?

Only thing i really learned is that Marc Maron is now shrill and annoying. I used to enjoy his stuff, but its been a few years since i saw any of it.

Ditto Chapelle

He's more hit or miss now, yeah. Some comics don't age well. Don't mean their old stuff, but that their current stuff goes flat.

That being said, while not that new, his  jussie smollett bit was one of his funniest.

I loved that he felt the need to paraphrase Vegetius to fucking general officers.

I think that he single-handedly reduced the chances of the military supporting a coup by 98%

I don't think they could. As I say Moldovas army is miniscule, and getting involved against Ukraine is way beyond what even a pro Russia party would manage.

For Russia those transnistria soldiers are doing as much as can be expected of them in making sure Ukraine has to keep some troops on that border.

In the meantime, the reviews are in on the Trump/Hegseth show at Quantico on Tuesday, and they are not good. At the time, Trump knew he was in trouble because the brass was sitting on its hands during the applause and laugh moments, but it appears that Hegseth bringing all of the brass together to explain to those 30 to 40-year veterans what "warfighting" was was the real insult. Many of those (talking anonymously) also seem to feel that the meeting was a political rally and extremely unsuitable for the audience.

Trump's claim that Portland OR was more dangerous than Kabul ever was was also seen as insane.

I loved that he felt the need to paraphrase Vegetius to fucking general officers.
