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

Don't worry too much, we are all here to make the best out of the fediverse for us and everyone Else. thanks for posting, we all strive to be the best possible version of ourselves that we can be. And sometimes it does not work out, that's life 🤷

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 😁

well, its ready, not that its implemented 😏

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

Yeah, i am German and autocorrect is my enemy. Especially when writing english. It is still the Default Setup from Google GBoard, but it is so fucking bad.

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).

I do Not See the fraud here. If He would have given the Girls His real Birthday, He would have still received the Same amount of Gifts. Nothing would have changed in exchanging the Gifts.

The only Thing, which it probably helped at, was that He could plan ahead for the birthdays, avoiding a Potential meet-in of each girl, that He dated on the Same Day. The only Thing He is gullible of ist deceiving the Woman on their Relationship. Which is Not an offenes in a legal Sense. There is no punishment for 2-timing, so 35-timing should Not have either

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

Unfortunately it is an Episode with a lasting Impact in the people and the Planet as a whole (think climate crisis acelerating, ecoelogical collapse etc)

Also surprised about that. I use Nobara and that too is based Off Fedora.
