Kiwix is probably the easiest way.

I'm sorry you don't think people are being helpful but I don't think the replies are useless, they just aren't what you want to hear. This is a bad idea, have you considered what would happen if you get caught? You'd be lying on a government form, the TSA can fine up to $17,000 and potentially limit you from flying (which sounds necessary for your career). It's up to you to choose but I would much rather ask my company to waive the requirement and explain why you feel that way before taking a risk like that.

"He said there's not a country in the world that uses it now."

Yes, blindly listen to what Putin says and ignore all the countries that do have working mail in voting.

Their neighbour?

From the info I found, the consensus is it's a troll who found a way to abuse the Steam reporting. Apparently the list of games being hit by these takedowns is huge, like 25+ games.

I know this is probably a joke, but yeah, I don't buy it. I've been keeping an eye on earthquake maps and that region in Russia has been experiencing a ton of small quakes over the last few weeks leading up to this event. It's also right on a fault line. If Russia somehow caused it, it wouldn't be from a nuke as those can be detected even underground. It was very likely just an earthquake.

I've always wondered why politicians get a massive break in the summer, seems like a really bad idea to have the people running the country not around to do their jobs in case of an emergency. I know they can be recalled, but still, that takes time. This isn't just a USA specific problem either.

That's what worries me a bit as well. As far as I'm aware, they seem to be pretty safe for now? Nostalrius WoW was a big private server that got shut down by Blizzard, but they were located in the USA. Turtle WoW is based in Europe (UK if what I found is accurate) and has done transformative work to the game, including working on a whole new compatible client in UE5 that should be releasing this year. But the issue still remains that they primarily have Blizzards assets, story, etc as the base of their game. I guess time will tell, I'm hoping it sticks around though.

Depends what you like, but I'm still nostalgic for old school WoW and find myself wanting to play every now and again but don't want to subscribe for a whole month. My recommendation for that would be Turtle WoW, it's an expanded vanilla private server that has it's own launcher and everything so it's pretty simple to get started with.

I had to stop myself from downvoting you out of frustration for just reading that comment. Like jesus fucking christ, 100+ people died and they're sitting on their ass worried about a 'six-figure deployment contract'. That's less than a million dollars! That's fucking nothing at a government level!!!

This is only a good idea if you live in a small town or if the road doesn't see much traffic, otherwise it is dangerous and illegal in some places.

I have a Milton Bradley Microvision from around 1979, the first handheld game system that used cartridges. I have the block breaker game, it still works but I think some components are wearing out as the game speed feels way too fast. Thing takes 2 9V batteries!

 

Seriously needed this, I've not been excited about playing a game in a while now. 15 minutes in and loving it so far. Oblivion may not be the best game, but it was one of the first open world RPG games I ever played and holds a special place in my heart for that.

 

Moosehead Breweries, founded in 1867, released on Friday a giant crate of 1,461 cans of lager — which, assuming about one beer a day, is “just enough to get through the full presidential term” of US President Donald Trump.

The “Presidential Pack” is being sold only on Moosehead’s website. It’s available to residents living in the Canadian provinces of Ontario, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia for about $3,500 CAD ($2,400 USD), including delivery.

Damn, not avaliable in my province 🫎 Also one beer a day to survive the next 4 years is... optimistic.
