Reminds me of Amazon Games’ disastrous MMO launches in Europe because they refused to add more server capacity for European players until they left in droves. For comparison the US servers had more than three times as much capacity at launch.

That’s not whataboutism. Whataboutism is when someone brings something unrelated up to make the main topic look less important and that’s not happening here.

All dry ingredients should for sure and they are where I am from. I still measure them in a special cup in the end that converts different ingredients from grams into volume but I wouldn’t know what to do with a “cup of flour” in the instructions either.

Alright that’s still a weird ruling to someone outside America though because something like a shopping mall or a parking lot are public spaces here too as well as anything that is openly visible on the internet. Which makes a lot of sense.

Sony would essentially own the anime and manga industry and be able to dictate monetization practices as well as trends. I find that even more concerning than the Fromsoft acquisition and that’s saying something. Nothing good can come from this whatsoever.

I’m surprised European governments haven’t demanded better enforcement of laws when it comes to hate speech on Steam. Instead they regulate stuff like lootboxes or spicy content because they think those are more harmful than fascism apparently.

It’s a public space in Europe for sure. No idea why the US would think openly accessible forums are a private little backroom where rules don’t apply.

If it was a core directive it would just delete itself.

Problem is it’s often the literal Hitlers who think they’re all pure and righteous and got nothing in common with him. They’re the first to tell you that there is nothing to worry about and how the left are overdramatizing everything until fascism is the new normal. It’s important to know that you can’t even trust yourself to not have a Hitler inside you. Others will have to make that judgement for you and they can also be wrong.

So maybe there isn’t a Hitler in everyone, but he could be in anyone including you and me.

This reminds me of so many comments from Americans saying how embarrassing Biden is as a president and that no one takes 🇺🇸’Murica🦅 seriously anymore under the Democrats. It was weird to read as a foreigner because I loosely remember what Trump was like. And now here we are again. Hope Americans are proud.

Oh the McD orders will be on top of everything. The kitchen will just throw away a lot more food.

The german book and movie “Er ist wieder da” (He’s back) is exactly about that. Just before his death, Hitler is transported through space and time to 2010s Berlin and quickly takes the country by storm again. The kicker: A lot of the scenes are just with real people interacting with the Hitler actor in full costume and the things they say and do is unbelievable. It really shows there’s a Hitler in every single one of us and if he really returned, it would likely play out exactly like that. I cannot recommend it enough.

Yeah pretty much, though the last few elections have been in eastern states or EU related where they always score way above average. I have at least a little hope that coming elections won’t be as bad.

And nobody was surprised. I predict most advertisers will return by the end of January for the same reasons they left previously: It’s the right business decision at the right time. Remember that the next time a corporation makes a pledge. It’s always about money.

The FTC does have a pretty solid track record under their current lead, it’s just that it will likely be demolished under Trump.

It should be added this was discovered to the surprise of absolutely no one.

What does a datacenter need a huge glass front for? Slashing carbon emissions? Yeah right.

Oh that isn’t even a flyspeck on the window compared to the shit he does to his ‘allies’ when he needs a fallguy or simply gets tired of them. And something tells me Elon won’t be so accepting of his role as orange man’s personal doormat so this will be interesting to watch in a morbid way if nothing else.

Good, I hope they raise pricing too and pay creators even less. Make it hurt. It’s the only language users understand apparently.

Please don’t take this the wrong way but as a fellow german it is extremely disturbing how our education system couldn’t make you understand how the Nazis rose to power. It’s the core theme of history class or at least it’s supposed to be in all of Germany. I have spent countless lessons learning about all the steps how an extremist minority could take the country by storm with relatively low resistance. While other countries learn about special operations and battles in WW2, we germans learn all about how Hitler could come to power and what we can do to prevent it from happening again. The fact that this little text could make you understand something you should’ve learned in your childhood shows me why it’s gone downhill so much recently. Most germans really do not understand how fascism works, do they?
