This is coming off as deliberately obtuse.

If you have a nuke, and someone wants to take your shit or kill you, they will be deterred from doing so. Will anyone ever use a nuke in this situation? Who knows, but it would probably cause a world war. Millions, if not billions could die. Governments could collapse. Entire species could be wiped out. The results are nearly unfathomable. I don't think anyone wants to be the cause of that.

If Ukraine nuked Russia, or vice versa, it would likely result in the destruction of both countries regardless of who the nuke hit, hence the previous commenters wiki link to mutually assured destruction.

It's uncharted territory for humanity, and no one wants to fuck around a find out.

I thought it was alligator on a dictator for sure but these comments sure opened my eyes to the possibilities

I started by watching little lore videos on YouTube. After 10 years of voraciously consuming Warhammer 40k content, I can confidently say I have no fucking idea where to start. The meme is absolutely spot on for trying to explain a starting point.

In all seriousness though, Warhammer isn't a story, it's a setting, and stories occur within it. If you take this mentality, you begin to piece the universe together in your head.

Leutin09 on YouTube does great lore videos. He has great beginner content, and it's perfect to put on while you do dishes or chores or whatever. I started out listening to the audio books, beginning with the first book in the Horus Heresy.

Imo, find a cool part of Warhammer you like, explore that topic. If you like it, you will organically expand upon your own understanding of the universe and find other aspects interesting. I'd also stay away from learning lore from reddit threads, shitposts, or podcasts like lorehammer. They are often wrong or misunderstand the source material.

Also, I gotta mention, the Warhammer community on forums can be super xenophobic, transphobic, toxic, outright Nazis, and all shades of shitty. Enjoy the content for the content itself, don't let the shitty community ruin an otherwise amazing setting.

DM me if you have any questions about Warhammer. Please. I'm desperate. My wife can't stand me talking about it anymore.

I switched from Windows to Bazzite on my main rig 2 weeks ago. Likely won't go back to Windows for gaming as I've had pretty much no issues with Bazzite.

I did also get a Steam deck recently, so anecdotally, both above answers are right.

Insert "I'm doing my part" meme

I'm the executive director of a very official organization I just made with just me as the sole staffer, and I'm warning that Bruce Pardy is a dumbass

Surprised it's not mentioned yet.

Severance.

To add to this with my own anecdotal experience: I got into a trade at 18, right outta high school. Had mediocre high school grades, and decent college grades for electrical. Got a job in a place I didn't wanna work for about a year, but made good connections and got good experience. Used that to get a job in my home town, and literally jumped from job to job, or was able to keep my job through intense layoffs by being a good bullshitter.

Some of the best advice I ever received was "it's not the grades you make, it's the hands you shake"

Get into something that might interest you, and network with people. Networking for me from a trades background as a young guy got me a work from home job doing IT in my 30s.

Best of luck mate, you'll figure it out. Time is on your side, just don't be idle for too long if you can help it. Older you will thank you.

Same here. The Dark Eldar builder slaves, the chaos lord, the space marine voice lines coming through their vox grills. So peak

The actual end goal is how much science per min can you pump out to flex on other autists. If you think the game ends when you launch a rocket, or when you get to the edge of the solar system, you are certifiably not autistic enough.
