Not to be a downer but I’ve talked with a deputy of the European Parliament that opposed chat control and they were getting so many emails that they just had to create a filter to immediately get rid of these emails as otherwise their email inbox would just get full and they literally couldn’t work (as they wouldn’t be able to receive other emails).

And this is from someone that is on our side. I assume that people that are actually for this bill will be getting blasted even more and will care much less, so I’m not sure how much are emails effective.

Fuck yea brother/sister/whatever

Enjoy! It’s an amazing show

Touché

But who else other than Israel has the motive to attack a humanitarian vessel? Not once but twice in two days and also has done the same to every single mission towards Gaza?

There’s only way to spin it. Did Israel even deny it?? They didn’t because they want people to know it was them. It’s a scare tactic and that doesn’t work if it’s some random guy with a drone

Meanwhile they’ll lose their shit if they see a small boat with refugees trying to enter their country

Different ideologies Same bosses/corruption

You think Putin isn’t were he is because of what the Soviet Union had before? He didn’t throw it all away

Ofc but those rules are there by design and are natural to the system

If the many have the control then it is hard for any one individual to gain control and rig the system for himself, because the many can kick him out

With capitalism you don’t have this natural control. You put in checks and balances that will fail eventually as they always did and then you’re screwed.

It doesn’t because the power and needs of the many are aligned in socialism and that’s not the case in capitalism

Within capitalism you need checks and balances so that the ruling class aka capitalist class doesn’t put their “needs” (more like desires”) above the needs of the majority

Within socialism the ruling class is the majority by definition they can’t exploit the system in their favor because that’s literally how it’s supposed to work.

So no, it’s very different

Capitalism that you mention that could work was the capitalism we had until the 70s and it’s what lead us to the late stage capitalism we have today

Even if you reset you will end up at this stage because accumulation of wealth and thus power will always occur and then the capitalist class has both the means and incentive to change the rules of the system and then they get more wealth and power etc etc

You can’t guard it unless you have power and under capitalism you don’t.

You gave the loaded gun to the capitalist class and then try to force them to do the “right” thing and not use the gun for bad stuff, except they have the gun… they’re not going to listen to you

Half truths aren’t facts nor science

Zurich for example

Maybe lowlands isn’t the best word but it’s not high up in the alps

Meanwhile in Central Europe there’s snowfall in the alps and max temperatures are below 15C even in the lowlands.

We’re so fucked

Or for me it would make CP2077 and hundreds of other games free to play on the Steam deck (since I already own them)

Fucking crazy stat

Let’s see

I’m sure he will have basically only far right policies but he will call himself and the party “centrist” so I wouldn’t be surprised if some low information Dems fell for it as well

Incredibly cheap I’d say

Iirc valve will even allow devs to generate as many steam keys as they want and sell them outside of steam for no cut whatsoever (and Steam will still provide support for the game on the launcher for those keys). And virtually no devs do it. They prefer to take the 30%. So that tells me that what they charge is more than fair to the devs

I mean this is obvious af

When Netflix had 90% of the shows that you wanted to watch and they weren’t annoying little fucks with account sharing and geo location, everyone was happy to support them

But once paying users feel like they are being taken advantage of, instead of catered to, they leave.

There’s so many cases where pirating is not only cheaper (duh) it’s actually a better product/experience. And when you charge to provide a worse product/experience than what people can get for free, then you can’t be surprised at the outcome

Final boss did it as well but I think the first time it was with Lady Butterfly? Is that her name.

The boss at the end of the first dream sequence

Fuck she really kicked my ass the first time around

And yea it’s the only souls game that I played but it’s really an amazing game. Hooked me in a different way to all other games.

I don’t remember which boss it was but when I was first playing Sekiro I finally beat this boss and the motherfucker comes back to life in a renewed form. Maaan it pissed me up so much for a second, then I got scared but then a bit after that it was actually a good challenge

It felt really good repeatedly kicking the part of the boss that took me so long to beat at first.
