I mean it's not clear the current state of things was the ambition before the war, a while back they were talking about seizing Kharg island which indicates capturing oil resources was an objective
This is one of those submissions that will invariably descend into a flame war if someone dare criticize it and infringe upon the consensus joy of others.
They were actually called Kings Quest and Leisure Suit Larry. There was also Police Quest and Space Quest. Sierra Online really had some of the canonical adventure game series.
I know this is frowned upon on HN, so feel free to vote me down.
But it only works on Firefox for me, not on Chrome.

Many an ISP these days blocks domains that have been registered less than a month ago because most scam campaigns have to cycle through domains way faster than that time.
Check if you have enabled some sort of "malware protection" at your ISP, because that usually is based on DNS filtering.
Go and ask your LLM of choice, and get back to me.
Have this quick recap:
>bush
Created two wars, direct deaths and enabled ones are 500k to 1M, $4-$6 trillion cost, it destroyed iraq and Afghanistan.
>obama
No new wars, cont previous plus libya plus drones strikes in the region (check how many kids killed in those), 100k-200k deaths, $1-$2 trillion, destroyed libya, yemen, syria, plus iraq/afghanistan
>biden
We all saw what was going on in gaza (~50k killed) and still paid billions to israel
Meanwhile trump had doha deal, reduced spending and pulled military from there. Hate trump for whatever reason you had that’s your own (maybe justified in domestic stuff), but the fact that what he did in that region is nothing compared to what previous presidents did, and unhinged tweets don’t count.
How do you feel about the President mocking Jesus and the teachings of Christ? Do you choose to not engage in any business inside the US or do you just hold your outrage until it's convenient to express?
answering this would require battling probably the most serious cognitive dissonance the poster has faced in their lifetime, so i would not hold your breath while you wait for a reply.
You’re a fan of the political party whose leader insults and mocks the pope. Literally insulting the person who is channeling the word of the Lord. Why do you support those that deeply insult Jesus?
Chill. GP never said he was against or in favor of the current US administration. This is quite a deranged strawman argument that borders on a personal attack.
This behavior does not lead to clever or constructive conversation. There are much better ways to get your point across.
It feels weird to have to write this but it seems warranted: A religious preference is something that extends beyond the limited time and space of a US political party.
Except a cursory glance at their comment history shows otherwise. You could have put in some basic effort.
Also don't insult our intelligence. It's pretty clear what side of the partisan line someone who says both - "I'm a free speech absolutist" citing Musk while in the same breath complaining someone is being mean to Jesus - is on.
Maybe you are simply projecting some guilt about your electoral choices. I can't come up with a better reason for your comment beyond empty moral posturing.
I'm happy to clarify but also please don't take it personal if this is my last comment wrt. to this; again, this does not really lead us to productive conversation and we can all do much better than that.
All definitions come from Google's AI summary, of course we can argue about those but I think they are pretty accurate.
deranged argument: a "deranged argument" refers to intensely illogical, paranoid, orpathological reasoning that often disrupts rational public discourse, characterized by extreme, often toxic, comparisons. It seems to me like that label is warranted, GP just wrote "I don't like that the game mocks Jesus" and got a somehow extreme response that I would definitely characterize as an "extreme, toxic comparison".
strawman: a dishonest debating tactic where someone misrepresents, exaggerates, or fabricates an opponent's argument to make it easier to attack. In this case, GP wrote "I don't like that the game mocks Jesus", whereas the discussion was turned by some people into "I like the Trump administration".
Criticizing someone because of their political and religious preferences (and nothing else) is as personal as you can get. Most laws against harassment around the world specifically point out this behavior.
YMMV, if you consider this to not be relevant, it's actually ... ok. We all have different points of view and even "logical" things might seem illogical to others and I mean this honestly and without snark. We don't have to agree, the best I (we) can do is to thoroughly explain our points of view.
There's really no need to steelman here. If you click the poster's comment history, this is on the very first page: "I personally like Trump as a president". So the post was nothing more than the same old tired pattern of selectively-applied criticism. At this point, thinking there must be some nuance or 4d chess behind this kind of criticism is just foolish.
Are you saying this with an awareness that you're calling yourself a hypocrite? I'm not trying to attack you here, that's just the plain meaning of Musk's "free speech absolutism".
Your deity of choice can most likely survive being mocked with no harm sustained whatsoever, being a supernatural entity beyond human comprehension. He/she/it might get angry with you, which is a good reason to personally choose not to mock supernatural entities or religious figures.
On the other hand, antisemitic slurs or other attacks on oppressed groups can result in real emotional and physical harms against real living people, your neighbors, your coworkers, your friends, even your family.
But yeah fair callout about Israel.
I tried... but it looked like it would take awhile...

I do not approve of such blockage.
Nevertheless. Knowledge is knowledge. So I post for everyone’s sake.

Physician, heal thyself.
nothing about it is deranged, a strawman, or a borderline personal attack though.
>GP never said he was against or in favor of the current US administration
they have, actually! i quote: "I personally like Trump as a president."

Thoughts?
Are you referring to Trump?
(I'm not religious)
Was thinking about the dumb animalistic shit we've done like burning Joan of Arc for wearing men's clothes

So we know that it isn’t.
