Happy Veterans Day! 🇺🇸

To every Veteran in our ranks and beyond, thank you for your service. 🫡

[NicholasS @PiercingCV]

Happy Veterans Day, everyone! To the veterans today and now gone, you have my utmost respect and I hope to honor your service by carrying the torch. Nearly all of my coworkers are veterans so Veterans Day is particularly important to me. I get to, on a near daily basis, hear their stories and grow as an NCO as they give their insight on how I can serve my soldiers better. For that, I'm eternally grateful.

Today is a day I remember those who have served and see how that meaning of service and sacrifice has shifted over time.

If you know your history, veterans have played a pivotal role in US history. Many such notable veterans helped pave the way for what the VA is today. including Brigadier General Frank T Hines who was the first Administrator of Veteran Administration who helped to restore institutional trust after the controversies of the Veterans Bureau which changed to the Veterans Administration in 1930. However, his legacy is affected by shortcomings in providing care, some of which are still struggles to this day. Either way, his work brought legitimacy to the VA.

Another notable example of stewardship and service even after becoming veterans is the GI Non Partisan League who stood up against unconstitutional corruption in Athens, Tennessee in what is now known as the Battle of Athens. Their story is one many have documented on Youtube and I HEAVILY recommend learning about it. There are many such cases of veterans who continue to uphold and defend the constitution well after their days of serving in the military are over. There's a reason why in the US Army we have the saying, Soldier For Life. We hold that close to our hearts, as do I.

Those are only two examples among many veterans, including my own coworkers, who continue to serve their communities and this great country well after leaving military service.

To that, I once again give thanks to the Veterans of the USA and my own thumbs up. This picture was taken earlier when conducting driver's training. Good times!

@MareFucker88 @Z4BTC_ Good question. Generator tech is not quite clear but im responsible for the servicing, repair, issuance, inspection, and inventory of portable generators and distribution equipment.

True, there isnt a lot of PR and the entry way is brutal. Most get in through the army.

@Z4BTC_ I'd gladly teach my own peers I love power generation with a passion but they gotta get their foot in the door at the very least. Maybe a video series will help? Idk.

To add on the unprofessionalism point, I have seen from some, including a few I have worked with in the past, PLEASE choose your words carefully. How you present yourself on its own merit can have a significant impact. Not naming anyone specifically but the way some have carried themselves has been quite disappointing.

[NicholasS @PiercingCV]

I feel like many of these points were already made if more people watched Gerrys stream during the discussion with Waltz. All great points as usual.

My only political take. You ready? I genuinely hate both the republican and democrat parties and after what I have seen I likely will not vote again.

That is all. Still doing Army stuff. Have a good weekend everyone!

@souraniss @CabronElBufon It's so easy. I'm 26 and there is damn near no age peers to compete in my industry. It's gen X and Boomers who are my competition. With the right certifications they're easy to overtake too.

[NicholasS @PiercingCV]

I cant possibly care less about BR. Didnt care about it when BR first became a thing and I still dont care. I won't touch it.

[TFVAULT @TF_VAULT]

The Finals CN server is officially testing a 15-player Battle Royale mode! Here is the complete breakdown of how the Battle Royale works based on early gameplay footage.

Instead of standard custom loadouts, players choose from 9 pre-set class playstyles and spawn into the arena starting with just a wooden sword. The mechanics are completely overhauled: you can carry two weapons simultaneously, passive healing is disabled in favor of OSPUZE consumables, and you must loot vaults to buy Sponsor Perks (like Alfa Acta's 25% health restore upon elimination).

What are your thoughts on this mode? Should Embark bring this to the global servers?

People like him are what is wrong with modern gaming. You can dislike the proceeds policy from steam ok sure whatever but Tim Sweeney is utter garbage.

Remember, folks, Steam is the last guardian to a new wave of exploitative practices from Big Gaming.

[Scyan @ScyanYT]

WHY TIM SWEENEY NEEDS TO RESIGN🔴

Under his Leadership as Epic Games CEO:
🔰Epic moved primary focus to consoles in 2006–2012 because Tim believed age of PC gaming is over, abandoning PC while Valve stayed to evolve it
🔰Tim Sweeney before release of Epic Store emailed Valve saying: “you assholes are telling the world that the strong and powerful get special terms, while 30% is for the little people.” while Gabe replied: “You mad bro?”
🔰Epic Games Store was made to make PC gaming have a better future, but all it did was:
- remove features that are customer friendly for the sake of Corporations interest
- The most garbage corporate designed basic store ever that took it years to have a shopping cart feature💀
- Paying major games to become EPIC EXCLUSIVE... bringing the console exclusivity idea to PC somehow acting like that's good for gamers taking away their free choice of what platform to use
🔰Tim Sweeney then chose to keep Fortnite off Steam AND remove Rocket League from steam too which obviously heavily harms the player count of both games, and freedom of choice.
🔰Tim Sweeney says age of Singe Player games are over, as games should instead be made under 1 platform similar to Roblox, week after multiple Single Player games get record breaking sell numbers
🔰Tim Sweeney shows how terrible he is with planning how to handle projects, when before release of UEFN, Disney mode, and everything else he kept delaying them atleast 5 times. Why announce a release date at that point?

METAVERSE ERA:
🔰Tim Sweeney wants to destroy everything Fortnite became to turn it from a beloved game, into a roblox like platform
🔰Movement animation was changed into "Motion Matching" Which is HORRIBLE for multiplayer skill based games, only used in open world games, but he could care less since this movement would benefit UEFN
🔰Tim also forces a huge change on Fortnite UI DESIGN, getting rid of Everything that made it Fortnite, to become a generic mess designed for a platform and not for a Video Game, as the UI also was designed mainly for Mobile causing it to work horribly or look terrible on console and PC
🔰Tim also got rid of Fortnite art style for the sake of metaverse so he can do infinite amount of collabs and make the design something that would benefit UEFN instead of whats best for Fortnite BR
🔰Fortnite BR resources specially during ch4,ch5,ch6 were taken away to all be fed into creating UEFN or Metaverse game modes, casuing BR to heavily suffer losing everything that made it awesome, like live events

🔰This taking away resources and going full focus on making Metaverse a reality not caring about what makes Fortnite BR special causes DONALD MUSTARD, creator and the visionary of Fortnite to quit, so he can bring his ideas into reality with Russo Brothers instead
🔰All the sacrifices were for nothing since Metaverse modes all were a failure, many shutting down not much after. As those resources could have gone to Fortnite BR instead but were wasted under his leadership
🔰Tim Sweeney refuses to give up on meta slop even after multiple failures, even recently changing UI design AGAIN, to be more favorable for UEFN and less BR
🔰He also bought Rocket League and Fall Guys to help with metaverse modes, both modes horribly failing, as the original games also got ruined under his leadership, many Rocket League major creators quitting cause of Tim Sweeney

WHAT METAVERSE ERA CAUSED:
🔰Huge amount of players quit the game because under Tim Sweeney it is getting rid of every reason why we play Fortnite
🔰This led into nearly 2000 EMPLOYEES LOSIGN THEIR JOBS thanks to his horrible leadership
🔰Story Director of Fortnite being part of layoffs sadly too
🔰Fortnite cosmetics began to be the most greedy ever seen in gaming, 5k vbucks for cars, 1.5k for tiny shoes to wear in game, having to buy a digital pet multiple times to change styles
🔰Vbucks got much more expensive to the point it genuinely hurts to buy any now days
🔰Battle Pass used to give 1500 free vbucks, now 800 only
🔰Crew Pack has been getting beyond greedy, from 1000 vbucks to 800. No more owning the battle pass if you cancel mid way, just a mess
🔰Tim Sweeney realizes everyone were right, Metaverse is an impossible delusion
SO HE REPLACES EVERYTHING WITH AI

THE AI ERA:
🔰Since Metaverse failed cause of costing too much resources, Disney Mode taking too long to happen, Tim chooses an AI FIRST, MAXIMUM AI ACCELERATION future for the game
🔰This causes many franchises to shut down any possible collaboration with Fortnite
🔰Not just code will be ai generated, but there were talks of even ART or everything being made with AI, specially for metaverse modes like Disney
🔰Tim Sweeney wants to forcefully make all of Gaming follow in his path and turn gaming into AI slop

HATE ON STEAM:
🔰Tim Sweeney begins attacking Steam for giving customers more information about the purchase they are making, like weather the game uses ai in its creation or not and how
🔰He calls knowing what your game is made with a "Political Thing" Saying how its like asking developers to state if they support democrats or republicans
🔰Tim then attacks saying Steam has been holding PC gaming back, but his reasoning turns out to be an absolute lie
🔰He AI Vibe Codes a new Epic Store to attack Steam with saying it opens 2 times faster than Steam, only to get badly humiliated again, cause day before Steam had a normal update that made their launcher open faster than epic store 2.0
🔰This humiliation makes Tim Sweeney go crazy, begin blocking a huge chunk of people on twitter and fighting anyone possible
🔰Tim Sweeney gets community noted 5 or 6 times IN ONE WEEK, so he begins fighting community notes too saying:
- Community notes are political
- Another fake Community note
- Community notes are drunk

THIS GUY HAS DONE NOTHING BUT HARM GAMING AS A WHOLE... GET HIM OFF EPIC GAMES HOLY SHIT💀I could write a whole book with how bad he is at his job
