Cyberpunk was supposed to be fiction, not a blueprint :(
If you got a powerful tablet and installed Kali on it, isn’t that effectively a cyberdeck?
That sounds like the north Iberia start, with the 3 brothers each with their own kingdoms and the intrigue sister.
Paul Weller would be “Moon Fire”, which honestly sounds pretty badass. For “Moon Moon”, you’d need a name like Paul Shaw or Peter Mathew.
It’s a confirmed fact they ordered troops in fallback lines to shoot any fleeing Russian troops trying to pull back on some of the fronts.
Playing on the highest difficulty level
By American standards, I don’t think that’s true. If I’m wrong about that, that would be amazingly good news!
FYI, I’m not Ukrainian. I’m Romanian. We have more skin in the game than Germany or France though. If Ukraine falls, Moldova falls 24 hours later, and allowing our brother country to go back under Russian domination is pretty unthinkable.
Even without that existential issue, allowing democratically minded Europeans trying to walk the same path we walked 25 years ago get invaded by Russia without as much help as we can give them seems horrific to me.

Need a dispenser here!
Finnish border officials say fences equipped with top-notch surveillance equipment — to be located mostly around crossing points — are needed to better monitor and control any migrants attempting to cross over from Russia and give officials time to react.
A fence won’t stop anyone, but it can detect people, which sounds like the point.
This period of war in Eastern Europe is pretty shit and I would like Western Europe to take it more seriously, thx
Nonviolent successes are always paired with violent alternatives. Nonviolent protests by themselves can be ignored, but if you have a nonviolent movement and a parallel but seperate violent movement biting your ankles… now negotiating with the nonviolent movement seems like a really good idea.
Wikipedia has a decent chronology tab of the kind of insanity going on when the UK just went 'Yay Ghandi! Nonviolence wins! Definitely nothing to do with all the terrorist attacks!"
Before India became completely ungovernable, their response to peaceful protest was to imprison anyone threatening their rule (make sure to read the “local violence” part).
On a more optimistic note, a true heir to Bernie will know how to negotiate with the center left to accomplish some of their goals in exchange for the support of progressives to win elections.
Technically yes, but I don’t mean technology as phones/laptops/tablets/etc. Imho, the biggest factor in social isolation is atomization due to bad urban planning. When everything and anything is only accessible by car, you lose any connection with your local neighbourhood and local stores/cafes/etc.
In environments where people walk around the neighbourhood, doing small daily shops, going to local businesses and taking mass transit to work/school/restaurants/bars, then you’re much more likely to interact with people rather than driving around in your social isolation-mobile.
Urban planning can be considered a form of technology, which is why I said technically yes.
Those look like 3 random people to me. I’m not seeing the caricature. For them to not be caricatures, what would you expect them to look like?
They tried protesting at oil infrastructure, they stopped multiple oil terminals in the UK being used for weeks and caused shortages in various parts of the UK. Hundreds went to prison and everyone forgot about it after a week.
They throw soup at glass, 2 people go to a police station for a few days and people are still talking about it months later.
Unfortunately, they have to exist within the constraints of modern news media, outrage cycles and social media, and that influences their decisions.
Except when they did protests targeted at oil infrastructure, that was still apparently wrong and got far less coverage than much safer stunts like these.
Presumably Valve’s lawyers can make this case, so I guess we’ll see if the judge is receptive to it.
The key thing is practice. Like any creative pursuit, your first attempts will be trash. The greatest writers, artists and musicians ever went through this too. If you care about that form of creative expression, just keep at it!
