Could you give us an example of such a location please?

Russia, which is blocked from other international payment systems. Or any other authoritarian country where you might not necessarily want the government to know where you donate your money to.

Whataboutism fallacy.

We’re still throwing around fallacies like it’s 2010? Okay, I cast fallacy fallacy!

When talking about whether a donation button should have a specific payment option, it’s relevant if the alternatives it offers are better or worse. Otherwise, the argument might as well be to not have a donation option at all.

Depending on where users are located, it might be the only realistic option they have if they want to donate. Besides, traditional payment systems like PayPal, MasterCard, Visa etc are all problematic in their own right.

I don’t really get the need for a term like this. People are attracted or not attracted to all kinds of aspects of other people, so do we also need hyper-specific terms based on hair color, ethnicity, body size etc as well?

Yeah, this seems like an attempt to create a token leftist community to prove that they’re not right-wing (despite all active political communities on there being just that). I find it quite funny that they’re still looking for an actual leftist to run the community… Good luck with that!

No, I’d rather just have a decent search function. Lemmy should be about human interaction, not getting answers from an LLM.

They talked much shit about how Ukraine treated POWs but was completely silent about how Russia treated Ukrainian POWs

Is that so?

Russian authorities have subjected Ukrainian prisoners of war (POWs) and civilian captives to torture, prolonged incommunicado detention, enforced disappearance and other inhumane treatment, which amount to war crimes and crimes against humanity, Amnesty International said in a new report today.

So the organization that regularly publishes reports on Russian warcrimes (Example) is bought by Russians. Uh-huh…

So because they criticized the wrong military that one time, we don’t have to care about political prisoners in Bhutan? Convenient.

Making my gaming space more comfortable. I work at home on my desk, so I’m also often tired of sitting there when I’m done with work. A few months ago, I purchased a projector, which I can use while comfortably sitting in an armchair. Playing games on a 100 inch projector screen just makes them look way more impressive as well, even though my normal screen is technically better in every way. I also play on my couch using my Steam Deck.

So far I haven’t noticed prices actually going down on Aliexpress etc - at least not for the things I’m looking to buy.

This is an English-language community btw.

Let’s see how our European governments will handle this new reality first. Could end up being good or bad for us depending on how they act.

Charging (for example while using the kickstand) and connecting accessories, like the camera.

it was not meant to be the MSRP of the Mario Kart bundle but a general actually-sold-as value based on what retailers are listing the normal Switch 2 as.

It can readily be preordered for MSRP though. Example

Why does this use the MSRP of the Mario Kart World bundle (509,99€) instead of just the console (469,99€)?

Basically our entire daily life would have been absolutely unthinkable for 99.9% of human history. Light and hot showers whenever we want them. Instant communication with the other side of the planet. Thinking machines with the entirety of Human knowledge in our pockets.

Assassin’s Creed. The actual gameplay is almost never as interesting as just walking around a meticulous recreation of ancient civilizations as a digital tourist.

It will have an effect on other countries, but fuck up the US economy the worst. Other countries have the benefit of having 190+ other countries to do trade with. Over the next few years, they will increasingly go for alternatives to whatever they’ve previously traded with the US. Thanks to the stable genius, the US will permanently be left poorer, while other countries will soon have economic growth again.

Ridiculously fast. More than double than what most people will drive on a highway. Illegal on a highway anywhere but Germany. And even there it would be quite unsafe and thus illegal in most driving conditions.

Recently bought “Drova: Forsaken Kin”. Basically a Gothic-like in 2D. Runs and controls great on the Deck.
