goddamn, those sentences are awful. i dont know whether its because they are from an US-american english text rather than a british one or whether its the authors way oft writing, but judging reading comprehension with this is nuts.

It just Shows that Trump does Not understand how democracies work at all. Decisions are not made by a Government and laws are not enacted by a “strong” Leader, but by representatives in a sitting parliament. what he wants is for the Western world to act more Like him, in the way of dictatorships. Because those he can rule with Power alone, be it economical or militaristic.

and with our Double democracy (one at national, the 2nd at european Level) he cant do that easily, because at the european Level we Pack a Punch of soft Power on the international Stage. which makes it harder for him to devide us and influence our actions. Any smaller, less powerful Nation otherwise would be a direct target of US Influence, See Venezuela or in the History all the us-powered coup’de’etat in south america

I guess the introduction of congestion pricing made a great difference in how the crowdiness is perceived. which is a good thing

its a private owned company (from Germany), Just getting this out to avoid confusion with any official shop/resource.

nevertheless, great thought! possibly makes for a great Gift for Christmas top 😁

sure, lets build the AI a datacentre in the most remote and most difficult places for humans to get to, surely nothing will go wrong.

well, its ready, not that its implemented 😏

how much would that cost then? Since countriea have different costs of living and use the money to maintain the roads (with personell) it would have to be paid by the countries standards. if you try tonunify that, and charge i.e. the price of austrian vignete, then other, poorer countries people could not use the roads in their country anymore. Except you exclude them from paying it, but that is against the european law (germany tried that and failed). If you make it the price of a country like croatia, then roads in austria could not be maintained as the personal (that needs to be paid) could not live from that.

the only possible solution would be something like the Eurail pass fr r trains, where you pay a flat amount for a sepecific set of countries.

in the fascist playbook this would be counted as foreign terrorist influence and would not do you guys over there any good, as it would pave the way to you being mass arrested. so we can only support you from afar, sorry

i would say google is your friend: https://stackoverflow.com/a/37739112 without having tried it

For me, i like to look at Life like beeing on an adventure over time. The Goal is death, but that Goal is meaningless, as long as the journey to it was meaningless. The adventure itself could have been good, bad, regular or irregular, it does not matter. Experiencing those Things was the meaning to that adventure. As we had no choice, no say in being born, therefore starting this adventure involuntarily, we should Not try to move along the adventures voluntarily. Death will come involuntarily too, so there is no point in stopping it short (reducing the meaning of said adventure before our Goal is reached).

That is part of the reason why i have never purchased it. Financially, selling Gamepass does not make sense, as the prices does not justify the buy-in to get a substantial amount of Games onto it, making it worthwhile. For Microsoft it only makes Sense, when they see additional Profitpoints Like the closed Market on it and Killing competition. Once that is done, the quality and amount of Games going to Gamepass will certainly worsen.

And we do Not need to forget that Microsoft is a Data Company. So by requiring the Gamepass service be installed onto your machine, they certainly get a load of Data about you from it. Which neither benefits the Game developers nor the consumers.

As for the Points of “Low barrier to entry, Games trying Out Games” - duh, thats what Demos are for

Well No, those laws usually only apply to Public areas, so as to Not Hurt your right of doing jackshit in your Home. At least the cannabis law in Germany has been designed Like it (but alas, cannabis is Not as much detrimental to the health of people around one as Smoking is).

Sure is, its the grandfather bascically.

Sorry was refering to Cyberpunk 2077 for the 1st one. This is what Happens when you Name your dann Game Like a whole genre.

Welcome to Cyberpunk then. Or GitS

Except Trump is a puppet of Putins, to some degree. So he would Not Care about Russia occupiying Ukraine in any way, because He will still get His Deal. And in the mean time, Europe will continue to buy American Arms, making him and His größter Friends rich in the process. I would Not be surprised If He Starts selling weapons to both Sides.

And with the US-Ukraine Ressource Deal being singed too. So they bascically Held Ukraine at gunpoint Dekanding all their remaining Ressources while Russia raped them. The US is no longer trustworthy. They now sit Back, while Europe will have to steer the War Into a favorable direction, b/c they have to. If Russia eins or loses does Not Matter anymore for US, b/c they will benefit either way.

Ubuntu. For Work purpose in 2020 as a development VM.

Since then i moved privately to Zorin and now to Nobara. At Work it still is Ubuntu for me, but hopefully i will soon change positions and can shelve that stuff.

Somewhat, writing on a German autocorrect Keyboard instead of an english one creates this. And always setting my Android autocorrect to other languages is quite troublesome. I try to correct most issues though.

Except its not abt white people only, because any other foreign Student ist going to avoid American Universities now. So, it will be for the American, whites only students, restricting international Exchange of ideas and understanding. Not too Long until they are going to target the education to cater to this exclusive group, removing all diverse topics and critical Thinking teaching subjects. Because a populace brought Into their political Line zu s easier to manage and keep under Control.

But some Portion remained. Every Country has some Form of their reserves stored within other countries (be it gold, prciuos Metals, USD). It’s used as Backup or collateral for Trades between countries, in Case of a Default on either Side.
