you can also search for the song on a search engine and just type deezer at the end of it, then get the link that way.

ye i'd also look up Redcurrant and STR-X as well. I often use the HyBrit amp sim with a boost pedal in front (like the NA Clon Centuar or the TSE-999)

The biggest punchline of all of this is that our tax dollars are paying for this propaganda. Not in my name.

And when they laid off their QA team with the testing lab of thousands of unique computers, they replaced it with VMs and AI. Because VMs are a totally good way to troubleshoot very specific bugs. The AI part is used to supposedly figure out when you're "idle" so what Windows can update.

Imagine needing AI to update a computer lmao

Yeah I think they do that for movies as well. If directors want the real thing (because who doesn't like practical effects and having the real thing in shot?), they'll have to contact the DoD.

The DoD reviews the script for the movie, and they just water it down to absolute propaganda (they even say it out loud, they don't hide it). US is always good, enemy always bad, US wins and saves the day. If there's any criticism of the army, it's usually brief and with a very weak point.

Full Metal Jacket isn't approved by the DoD. Says everything you need to know about the, imo.

I heard in the campaign for the COD MW (2019), the devs put the Highway of Death in the game (which is an American war crime) but in the story they depicted it as something Russia did. This obviously sparked some outrage, as people read this as the game dismissing American war crimes.

Seems pretty deceptive to me.

If there's other games (and maybe some probably much to the equivalent of America's Army to Russia) that water down Russian war crimes, then that's just as deceptive.

I think all propaganda is equally bad. Putting certain ones on pedestals because "At least it isn't XYZ" doesn't jive with me, and it distracts from the real issue.

Yeah i head about that. America's Army or smth like that. Heard it got cut and i think some players said that the game was actually kinda good lol.

Was never really interested in it tbh, seemed generic af.

Very surprising that a local channel of a video game celebrates holidays/certain events of that particular nation in the game. Truly shocking!
