Well now we get to wait two weeks and see what happens.

South Africa has no real geopolitical significance, while the US government sees India as a bulwark against China.

Thanks Wade. Downloading the game now.

I'm pretty sure Lopez does copaganda too.

I feel like any attempt to tone down Ed so as to not be cringe-inducing would have shot directly over the line into having people complaining they messed up Ed. Maybe they should have just kept Ed as just an off-screen character the crew interacts with?

I liked it too. From what I recall this is a lot farther along into the Spike/Vicious/Julia plotline than in the anime, right? It pretty much got through that whole arc IIRC?

Thanks Wade! Do you need my Steam info?

It’s time to fear the fungi ARSTECHNICA.COM Humans have long been protected from fungal infections. Climate change could ruin that.

Okay, could I get a copy of the Surviving Mars Starter Bundle on Steam @Commissar SFLUFAN?

I'm gonna need to poke around a little bit on Steam, I'm not sure off the top of my head what I'd like.

My best friend and his wife are naming their first child, a girl, Reyna. Yes, it's precisely the reference implied by the fact that I'm necroing this thread.
