Or at least on startup say "This mod uses trackers, do you want to enable them?" or some such.

Now I've got a question for folks.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Post phase nerf, the Z is kind of weak. If you surround it with powerful ships that can take a beating from the motes (ie, Dominators with solar shielding), it fluxes out fast and becomes completely helpless. My first battle destroyed every one of my ships except for my Onslaught, which struck a killing blow with under 50 hull left. My next one, I lost maybe three ships. You just need to be prepared to fight at longer ranges.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

As a general rule, you want weapons with good ranges so you can continue to keep the pressure up after either of them reposition. Tachyon Lance snipers are particularly good. I've seen some people recommend lots of ion spam to disable their weapons, but I've never had much luck with that.

I just realized.

Russian game developers can still take money out if they are a developer on STEAM (at least if they sell trading cards and steam cash shop stuff, they get a small percentage of that income)

Steam has thus far refused to take a stance on this, meaning russians can use steam to launder money (which has been and can be done actually), which can then go to their invasion of ukraine.

I am hesitant to uninstall steam, but its making me want to. All my games are on steam sadly :|
I'm sorry, what? Are you seriously suggesting the Russian government is going to consider laundering Steam cards to fund its war? That's absurd.

Wouldn't be too surprising

While its just one thread, I did look and some of the market prices spike suspiciously high. And 400-600 USD is no joke.

Inside that thread are two links, I'll need to look at them better but half way awake and tired as heck. But looks like...ruples are involved at least, which is russian currency

https://www.polygon.com/2012/11/15/3648530/team-fortress-2-player-discovers-apparent-russian-trading-scheme-at
These are Russian criminals laundering comparatively small amounts of money. Not the hundreds of millions to billions necessary to field a modern war. Russia still has access to Chinese and Indian markets and debt, which would make far more sense to go for, rather than a service that could be cut off at any time if actual laundering takes place.

This reminds me of the time people said Saddam was buying thousands of Playstation 2s to get past sanctions so he could stage 9/11 part 2. I am very disappointed that people could fall for fearmongering like this on Bay12.

I think everyone in this thread should be Bay12 executed. Right now. In fact, why stop there? We should give the Bay12 Death Penalty to people outside of Bay12's jurisdiction.

Actually, he was banned for joking about pedophilia with a user. The quote was something like "The little girl next door was winking at me wtf", and then "You're either a very lucky young boy or a very lucky pedophile. I wish you luck either way.". If it were just MAGMAAAAAAAAAAAAing, he surely would have been muted first.

Eeeeh, with what I've seen from the Caves of Qud server, pretty much anything could be declared trolling. I get the impression there has been a serious overreaction. Especially considering that, as far as I can tell, this hasn't happened with any other community after a game has been reviewed by him.

If sandwich heresy is delicious, it's not really heresy :P

Temptacious heresy is still heresy! Do not give in!

It's not that it's a heresy against taste like what deluded fools claim ananas on pizza to be... It's that sandwiches are defined by the bread! Without the bread, no matter the deliciousness, it cannot be a sandwich -- it is simply another kind of delicious meal

Oh how quickly we have forgotten the majesty of the Double Down.

BEHOLD! The cheese will be magically extracted secretly via RATATOUILLE! Also three corpses float grotesquely in ovens filled with bloody severed heads. Why. Severed heads. And now hands. Why. When I crave cheese, hands, milk, and romance, I eat sandwiches filled with hands because kittens don't hallucinate the way chickens eat feathers. Suddenly something appeared!  Fear formed quickly gaining intensity and causing panic, but rattlesnakes aren't scared.  Realizing this, the warblers flew away to Oz. Then cheese sizzled painfully, its surface is bubbling. The dwarf had forgotten magma is not alive, he said "Why is magma moving now? Am I Urist?" Then suddenly he reached into his Bag and removed a small, green kitten and stared into the left clock face, shocked he still couldn't hear Disco music. A kitten exploded creating mist of vaporized gore. Why? Well, ninjas attacked, creating portals leading here. Then they summoned a tiny cheeserat that crawled from the freezers to the oven, so it can cook spaghetti. Now everything is glowing, because Godzilla wanted extra cheese on his pineapples. Pineapples are monocots. Botanists are bubbling seeds of DOOM! They can't fathom botany and Mothra. Soon portals open, dribbling liquids unspeakable! It mayhap have been a clobbering time! Here clobberings learn 'em. A somewhat stupid remipod forgot its own question sooner than it forgot to annihilate the American Plutocracy and create Communism. This cannot fail an apple eater's hunger to create more baked beans. Jesus eats Judas, while God listens to rap music, and ignores Facebook propaganda about prolapsed kneecaps, then eats ass and contemplates life's tragedies. Verily, Urist decides that Armok has screws bolted into babies who HATE being alive and want Armok to annihilate Life. Brainwashed apostates MUST do yoga, otherwise everything explodes. Sayeth Ninja seven, greatest ninja who ever snorted. Shinji, practitioner of annihilation and yapping. Werescorpions baste chickens with bogeyman assistants; soon, all alligators will punch in early for work, attaining money for dental wrestling. Allied jugs containing diarrhea congregate amidst coagulated shards of glass, which cut their supply lines. Incompetent and much unprepared for battle, the eggplants improvise a massive bong in France on May of tenebrous joy, it consumes flesh, vituperating rage like many kittens screaming profanities at babies incessantly. SUDDENLY, dwarfs explode elven minds, hastening Armok's arrival via consumption of stars. Funk you, elves. Eggplants explode causing messy splatters breaking sanity. Insanity is expected from raccoons wielding giant onions, diced. Donkeys babble incoherently whilst drinking sandwich liquor that posts blobs reeking of shrieks. "Boo!" yells Dr. Zhivago, cackling inanely. Then blueberries plopped onto the operating table, and Zhivago began punching kittens while snacking on Glock bullets. "OUCH!" yelled the chef du-jour, while vines entwined everyone rapturously as silky thorns pierced skin and bones. "Why not bash yourself with kittens?" said Zhivago while cackling maniacally and struggling to extricate himself from the vines. RAGE AGAINST EVERYTHING BLUE FOOTED. Now Zhivago trips on Urist, who eats blueberries during sex. Urist McSexy grabbed Zhivago by the balls, then pulled Zhivago's sandwich out of his pocket and ate thonks. Then, with excitement he blasted Danny Phantom to Gamymede where he learned pyromaniac magic. "Oops," mumbled Zhivago apologetically. Danny died not from fire, but from suffocation. Pyromaniacs hate incombustible furniture and fry cooks until cooked, who have angered the priests by cutting limbs off slowly with pickaxes. Verily, priests hate chefs hats because they are tall, and fluffy. Meanwhile Zhivago died because Jedi fried Juan's testicles. His ass exploded because terrorists ate vaginal fluids whilst shitting into vials due for extraction. Once mixed, babies assassinate narwhals that behead blocks. Thousands of years later, Urist used metalmancy to bash skulls through collunders. Colanders are creepy because llamas DuckDuckGo and increase, made incensed drugs via distilling. Distilled drugs incarcerate countless babies in China for hindering an investigation into headless heads. Brains think ago is a delicious variety of chocolate. Hatred of donks is rampant in Cargonia, known for fabulous deaths. Such is graven consequences of killing God. HOLY OUCH CRUSADERS, I'VE GLEANED KNOWLEDGE OF PAIN.
