Anyone got an archive link? Page is down for me.

Thanks for the link. Looks like I had already turned it off.

The Dutch: hold my beer

In Sweden I see price per kg for toilet paper. Which I guess can help you guesstimate, if you always look for 3 layers for example…?

They have been working on an unannounced city builder for a while now. Maybe not on the same scale as cities skylines, but at least it’s the same genre. So hopefully they have gathered some experience in the area already? Can’t speak to the results yet, though.

I’m more worried they don’t have the capacity to meaningfully improve anything about cities while also working on that new thing.

Some of us still have relatives there who are not Nazis.

That title reminds me of IT crowd.
”What’s the meeting about?”
”I bet he’s gonna declare war on something. He loves declaring war.”
Next scene

Might very well be an endless loop because tail recursion can be optimized to reuse the stack frame. Depends on a lot of things of course.

Well, if that is that case, I change my view on this. As I said I was replying to a specific post, not the recording. Maybe the article was bad then, not portraying the situation well enough. What I read sounded super out of touch from the politicians‘ side (”how dare you express your anger in my face“).

I guess my error would I didn’t do enough research before replying.

I don’t know, but I think if he’s not ready to help stop the genocide in his position, he should be ready to hear what people think about that. In person. Not from the comfort of emails that you can just ignore. And of course the people are angry.

I didn’t see anything about 8 hooded men in this post, i don’t know if that is the original or other articles.

But from the thing I replied to, I feel like this was okay? The only reason he didn’t go home was that he didn’t want anyone to find out where he lives (fair enough).

But why dodge the question about the genocide? Maybe he should realize that when you support genocide, people will be very angry at you. Instead of complaining about them expressing their anger, just because for once it’s in person instead of emails you can ignore.

How were they ”threatening” him? To shout that he should be ashamed is not a threat, Mr. Kristersson.

And about the ”normal behavior”, I would say it’s okay to do something not ”normal” when expressing your discontent about complicity in a genocide. Maybe complicity in a genocide should be ”not normal” and he ”crossed a line”? And then dodge the question about the political issue.

But I guess the demonstrators should just use the approved method of influencing politicians and be born rich and well connected instead.

But this whole day one DLC thing is a PR nightmare already? Step back from it somehow = win back some good will?

I used to work at PDX (dev studio). And even there players were saying the DLCs were just cut from the game to charge for them later. Which I can tell you, is not at all how that works for the grand strategy games.
But with a day one DLC it’s quite obvious. I mean maybe they wouldn’t have made the extra clans at all because they couldn’t justify the production costs? Personally I think they thought this is the most likely thing to break them even on the sunk cost of this dumpster fire.

The other peeps from the dev studio I’ve talked to are just as baffled (and upset about the consumer hostile practices).
I’m so glad I got off that sinking ship.

I thought this day one DLC crap was just them trying to break even. But now they are refunding people? I don’t get what their play is here.

A way to have several statements on the same line?

Cries in Swedish.

Given how much cost Paradox have sunk into that game, they are just trying to break even here, I think. I’m not saying that means anyone should be okay with this, I’m just offering an explanation. But makes me wonder if that’ll actually work out, or if they end up losing more through that bad PR.

The final assembly is only part of the story though. As far as I understand, fairphone does actually try to check their supply chain to ensure the raw materials are (more) ethically sourced. As opposed to those optimizing for profit, who will intentionally look the other way.

Thanks! I had noticed only 2.

Then I told my husband about your list and he was like ”that seems like splitting hairs”. Terrible.

When I tried to use it it seemed like WPF but worse (except for the modern theming, but that I can get in WPF via the 3rd party ”WPF UI”).
