As a German (and more general, a human with a brain): Are they fucking stupid?

Wasn’t the sales pitch that those prediction markets would act as a “whistleblower platform”?

Supported. Next, start a petition to criminalize politicians pushing the same crappy laws again and again in the hopes they at some point pass.

An open world game is something you immerse yourself in and you learn as you go. It is 100% incompatible with strict “win conditions” for every instance.

I don’t see how this is about win conditions. The game communicated the consequences of your action poorly. That is on the game, not on the player. There is a reason why one of the first type of mods coming out for Fallout 4 were mods that replaced the often times misleading 3-word response prompts with the actual lines that are behind those prompts; because in a game where you need to interact a lot with NPCs, it is crucial to be able to predict how your attempt at interacting is going to be received. Vanilla Fallout 4 failed at that and as it seems, RDR2 fails at this as well.

“The president is truly revered in the U.S. So to be able to sit in the proximity of him at Mar-a-Lago, and then you hear like the Iran war was launched from Mar-a-Lago.”

Holy shit that quote is juicy. It needs to be the motto of the treason lawsuit against Trump.

So NATO territory will definitely get attacked, got it.

The european comission decided to not do anything. Right now there are efforts underway in the european parliament to force the commission’s hand and to attach the main point of the SKG campaign to legislature already in the works.

All hail the dystopian future, where countries don’t need people to make babies, in fact, they oughtn’t, as it decreases worker productivity. They can just order a steady amount of new slaves workers being born.

I am pretty sure the picture is not representative of the actual device.

The polish people will need to prevent PiS regaining power, if this is supposed to last.

They sure found an interesting way to square Fox News propaganda with Mamdani’s campaign promises.

The channel Historia Civilis has made excelent videos about the military exploits of ancient Greece and Rome. I highly recommend.

China gets praised in certain circles, because they do install record numbers of renewable energy. Renewables make up a bigger and bigger share of their overall energy production. But they do also build fossil fuel power plants, as their demand for energy outpaces their ability or willingness to build more renewables.

And Germany’s gas storage is at 50%, the lowest it has been in nearly a decade. But you won’t find conservative rags like the BILD complaining about it, because the conservatives are in charge. Also, our energy minister Katharina “Gaskathi” Reiche is building way more natural gas power plants, like the good little gas lobby insert that she is.

Yeah, the religious overtones have taken center stage in the last seasons. Definity detracting from an otherwise stellar show. And I think they implied that we are.

They could just show him an AI generated video of an aircraft carrier with huge steam plumes every time a jet launches. They could get away with it.

When I want to fly in my dreams, I play games where my character can fly. After playing Warframe for a while, I can’t fly, but I get more and more bouncy in my dreams.

Ist ich_iel wieder schneller als die Nachrichten erlauben oder (noch) nur wunschdenken?

Modern-day monarchy, yay!
