In my client, it just looks a bit plain.

I’d argue that the problem with non-physical releases is mainly conservation, and software pirates seem to have that covered for PC releases.

Now if you wanna buy a game, DRM free is of course preferable. I buy as much as I can from gog, because I don’t want to blindly trust any corporation, regardless of their past record. After all, valve is set up in a way that gives them all the leverage.

I feel like if you react to any left-wing posts like a you’re the main role in a 50’s red scare propaganda video, they’ve already won.

Works for me with a VPN to Australia, so yeah, probably just ISPs being shit. Nothing new, I guess.

Yeah, I’ve tried from a lot of different VPN locations. Wasn’t able to find any DW is blocked in.

Do they? To my knowledge, providing news for the world is pretty much their declared purpose.

Every time I read about the Japanese justice system, it just seems like abject horror.

The way they did representation was one of the few things I really liked about Discovery. And that they gave us that Pike, and a Spock that turned out a lot better than I thought. Still, felt like every season got worse, plot wise.

I want to buy the whole of Switzerland.

It took them years to prepare that operation. It was against Hezbollah, not Hamas, because they saw them as the bigger threat.

The war in Gazah is barbaric, but the sensible immediate alternative would have been a very targeted operation to find and rescue the hostages, not something like this.

Dunno, I suck at learning languages, gave up after English, and I only got passable at it after spending some time in Ireland. Maybe I’ll try Spanish some day.

I do, however, have a friend who just likes learning languages. He’s at his fifth now, and deciding between Polish and Czech. Some people are just language freaks, I guess.

Maybe they’re trying to learn Czech?

All credible reporting I’ve seen is relatively certain that it was a small amount of military grade explosives.

If you have the device in front of you, and are prepping it for your secret operation, that also seems like a much more straightforward solution than trying to manipulate a lithium ion battery in a way that both allows it to work normally for years, but then explode violently enough to kill someone holding it.

If you look at the kind and number of documents, and each parties reaction, this is very much a false equivalency. Biden’s documents case is more like Pence’s, while Trump’s is a whole different animal.

I don’t have children. I don’t plan to have children. I don’t think any of my partners did or do either. People can be invested in the future because they don’t want future generations to suffer. If you need to have younger dependents for that, it mostly makes me think you have a rather narrow world view.

Yeah, that was the impression I got too. Miserable guy, who wants to make everyone else more miserable than he is.

Yeah. I mean, the whole free speech thing is cool and all, but this seems like it should be seen as a direct threat.

Maybe you dared eating the non-citinous part of a Crustacean.

Yeah. I’ve lived in one in eastern Germany for a few weeks at one point. It was in a park, which had seating, locations for BBQ, playgrounds, and all streets around where very reduced speed. The flat was sized and partitioned well. Insulation sucked, though I’m pretty sure renovating one to modern standards is cheaper than leveling and replacing it.

I grew up between a big house with it’s own forest, and a town house. At this point in my life, I have spent more time living in apartments, and the last 4 years living in studios. Gotta say, I have no desire to move into a house at any point. Having an apartment in a well built city with good public transport is just way nicer.
