Europe would definitely not come to our aid. There's nothing to gain, and everything to lose. Plus they barely came to the aid of a country being invaded in their own back yard. If they fear provoking Russia's ire, they wouldn't touch the US with a ten thousand foot pole.

Even if they did declare war against the US, it wouldn't tip the balance of power.

No upside to Americans maybe. Tweets like this are intended for the electorates of their respective countries, where hating on Trump is still a very easy way to win favourability.

I don't think there was any noteworthy news in that time.

Just one. Playing two at once would be tricky, I'd need like a second computer or something. And switching back and fourth between keyboards really quickly would probably lead to lots of deaths.

I don't buy this. He's driven by his ego more so than money at this point. Influencing world events makes him feel warm and fuzzy.

This is c/patientgamers, so I assume that first reason wouldn't bother most of us here. I'm curious about the spyware assertion though. Were they caught doing something shady?

In those movies, the dumb ones are already shuffling about the street.

I typically pay $20 or less for my jeans. Anything more than that I consider a ripoff.

Or the third option, it's not that funny.

When it comes to black humour, people tend to have lower standards. I guess for them the shock factor is enough to carry the joke. But once you've seen enough black humour, the shock factor starts to wear thin. The shock factor should complement the joke, not be the subject of it.

Abiotic Factor. An absolutely amazing survival crafter. From someone who was sick and tired of survival crafters.
