You created this post in order to give yourself an alibi when someone notices this game appears in your "Last games played", didn't you?

You should probably specify which country you're from

It's probably less optimal than walking since I seem to get less steps in when I bike, but I can confirm it works

I tried the beta a few months ago and it was great! I kinda lost interest when I struggled to find a city with the workshop I needed at the time, but I'll try again now that a few updates have come out!

Sure, not trying to tell you how to enjoy your games at all! I was just explaining why people would want to play this specific game closer to launch rather than later

I'd agree with this statement for most games, but the best way to enjoy Helldivers 2 specifically is to play it when the playerbase and the hype is at its peak. The gameplay will still be just as good a year from now, sure, but you'd miss the emergent story being built right now

I think Brotato uses it too

It should also be noted that a directive isn't an "EU Law", since it cannot be enforced directly (as opposed to a EU regulation such as the GDPR). It's basically a framework that all EU member states have agreed they would each pass as a Law in their own jurisdiction (which explains the first quote in the article beginning by "Member States shall ensure ...").

Since eprivacy is "just" a directive, each member state has since passed their own implementing Law that have the same basis but can vary in their specifics, so rules on tracking and cookies aren't the exact same in each member state.

Selling only DRM-free games has always be GOG's whole thing (well, that and selling oldies compatible with modern OS), it's weird that this meme specifically would be considered "aknowledging piracy"

I'm mostly using my bike for my daily commutes these days but this looks super interesting. I'll give it a look !

From a Le Monde article

Apparently what he said in french was: "[le sujet] a été évoqué parmi les options. [...] Il n’y a pas de consensus aujourd’hui pour envoyer de manière officielle, assumée et endossée des troupes au sol [...] Mais rien ne doit être exclu. Nous ferons tout ce qu’il faut pour que la Russie ne puisse pas gagner cette guerre."

Roughly translated, he said "The topic was discussed among other options. There is no official consensus in favor of officially sending troops on the ground, but no option should be ruled out at this point. We will do everything necessary to ensure Russia doesn't win this war."
