Yes.

Is rather have a conversation that paying for software isn’t a bad thing. It incentivises creating new software.

Not paying a cent for open source just highlights the problem - it’s not like people didn’t spent their dev time creating the software don’t deserve the compensation. They do. And this is one reason why open source is doing an uphill battle vs proprietary that can just put enormous pricetag and people pay.

Saying that, I never subbed for gamepass and hopefully never will. I like to buy things directly. Steam / GOG is perfect. I wish there was that model in films/anime/music.

Moderate right wing parties don’t concern me as much as radical lunatics from either side.

The subject of Ukraine is a litmus paper test for the party if they live in reality, and Linke doesnt pass.

Commies + Nazies get more than 1/3 votes. Looks doomed asf.

Swedish vikings also established the Rus kingdom, based on trade route “from Varyags to Greeks” by the river Dnipro.

Time to do it again with League of Nations 2.0

Somewhat similar to toxic deluge I guess?

EDH: Ability to nuke all the stones is sweeeet in the decks that don’t run them, which is easy in green.

Very solid.

The USA is bad but it’s nowhere near russian level of bad. You are, however, moving in that direction at a rapid pace. It does help that American president sees russia as a role model.

That happens but that’s why you do your research and search the feedback on shops first.

Crazy how you people even meet Paul. In Ukraine 99% interactions were via stashes: pay someone in crypto so they reveal the location (lat/lon) of the hidden stash and the photos of where it’s hidden. Then off you go treasure hunting.

No face to face contact this way.

Unplayable in which format?

Burn, motherfucker, burn.

Ukraine has figured out how to counter shaheds - and it’s not some silver bullet, it’s a huge system of quick responders AND some of them are antiair drones teams.

Ukraine haven’t figured out what to do with enemy FPVs. Neither did russia. Which created a deep killzone out of the frontlines. Any serious discussions about defense strategy should be taking this experience as a baseline, not as some incident only applicable for the poor countries.

You still need armoured vehicles even with a static frontline. As for the actual tanks, they are questionable now.

Artillery is still there though and not outdated by FPVs. Depending on the issue at hand, it might be easier to blast someone with artillery.

The thinking you have in your post is the reason why the most advanced military on the earth wastes 7 pac3 missiles on a single Shahed in Iran.

Truth is, nobody have good solutions vs drones yet. Bigger ones like Shahed, yes, maybe, if you have a lot of practice and are capable to build layered AA grid. FPVs are uncounterable yet.

I’m not a fan of american stupid war on Iran but this looks like horseshit.

Locally run LLMs on unified ram could be the one reason to do this, but this is a thin market and Apple is more about ecosystem for a wider audience.

Ah, classic house on the wheels

I don’t understand why everyone is so hyped about this case, with the want to punish the company. This is just the desired effect, they will pay a pittance of compensation and create a precedent making it harder for any competition to enter a market. This also plays along with the aim of digital surveillance and ID verification being enforced on everything.

Uh umm I wouldn’t want cutlery in the ass, but you do you.
