I do like the killers design and their attack is really cool. I wonder if it would be better if them breaking gens with power counted as 2 hits against the gen. So they couldn't 3 gen quite so strongly

I had the same experience. Judgement can 3 gen and legit stall the game out for so long even with 4 people. I wanted to DC tbh but foolishly thought we could break the 3 gen. Nope all dead with 1 gen left it wasn't even fun

Meteorologists (incl @wmo-global.bsky.social), scientists and media seem to have found consensus on the fact that both Ocean Heat Content and NASA CERES satellite data show more than a doubling in global heat uptake. Those who've been downplaying this for years have been rather quiet the past week.

Wind energy continues to strengthen Europe’s industrial competitiveness and energy security. In 2025 Europe built 19 GW of new wind energy capacity.

"There may come a time when the people elected to enact laws decide the modest benefits of regulating greenhouse gases outweigh the considerable economic costs." "Modest benefits" vs. "considerable economic costs"??? Did the WSJ editorial board write this? www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

May I once again not-at-all-humbly reiterate what I said back in 2022: the centrist brain-worm that "energy security" comes from crawling from dependence on one fossil fuel supplier to another is absolute bullshit: Europe could and should have been reducing gas reliance faster for the past 3 years

I'm @Ketanjoshi.co on Bluesky
@KetanJ0
Also, energy security is served by massive, rapid reductions in fossil fuel use, and worsened by sustained or increased reliance on fossil fuels.

Gas, our best weapon against Putin
Australia could help reduce Russia's leverage over Europe - especially if this war drags on for years.
David Crowe
T The war in Ukraine has descended so quickly into crimes so great that the moral case for a powerful response grows stronger by the day. The latest atrocity, the bombing of a maternity hospital in Mariupol, only adds to the urgency about what else can be done to stop the Russian invasion.
The primary hope is to break the Russian economy. Australia has joined global sanctions to impose a crushing financial penalty that might be enough to halt the attacks, impose extreme pressure on Vladimir Putin and convince other autocrats that similar ventures will trigger the same costs.
But the economic assault is yet to stop the Russian President after almost two weeks of radical steps designed to crash his currency and paralyse his central bank. These steps are certain to bring severe financial hardship to millions of ordinary Russians, yet success depends on whether this pain can force Putin to relent, if not retreat.
The reality is Australia has few ways to add to this pressure. It is doing less than in recent conflicts: there are no Australian boots on the ground. This reflects the essential calculation, which is cold but correct, that NATO and its allies must not go into direct combat with Russian forces and risk turning this into a nuclear confrontation.
It is on the economy, then, that Australia can bring some pressure to bear. Any pressure is worth considering
when Australia is a huge energy supplier with the capacity, in theory, to reduce some of Putin's leverage. It has been on federal cabinet's agenda for good reason.
The war is now a test of whether banks stop tanks. The West has launched an experiment to see if economic war can defeat an army of more than 150,000 troops. History shows that stronger economies win wars. Experience shows the victory does not come quickly.
