It’s insane to me that so many people seem to have a concept of legal loopholes informed entirely by like non-specific-pop-culture. As if it’s magic incantations that get power to fuck off instead of like a purposefully built system.
Here’s a hot take: all the sovereign citizens and equivalent in other nations are just the average persons general ideas about how the law works cranked to 11. Basically everyone believes in the magic incantation, they just overshot a bit.
yeah but that’s your fault now
I think the most egregious one to me was the stasi listening post that said they listened in to every 3rd person or something along those lines. this was post snowden, so by objective metrics that seemed a lot better than the allied NSA listening in to 100% of everything lol
IIRC their big bad scary point, and admittedly that works on most germans, is that you have a Tram station right outside since nobody could afford or get cars
I’m genuinely pretty sure the DDR Museum in Berlin is run by socialists who want you to notice this, I swear to god that entire fucking place makes 0 sense otherwise. All the stations are like this, they’re describing something good that nominally west germany did or still does but then describe it as bad because the communists did it, it ends with you looking at ginormous flat which it tells you cost the equivalent of 50€ per month or something and that nobody but the the richest 5% of the country could afford in Berlin today, before letting you out via the gift store full of DDR nostalgia to buy. Even all the most unpolitical, co-worker-belief-system people I’ve went there with caught on to it.
I’m guessing whenever GabeN steps down it’s going to be the gaming equivalent to Tito dying
Legendary - Failure: It was the height. The thin mountain air depriving your heterosexual brain of the necessary oxygen to not turn gay. You manage to hold these thoughts at bay at all other times.
“Babe, I was just temporarily gay due to the altitude.”
I kind of think this is a sort of feudalism / situation. Sure, agile is terrible. Conventional waterfall-project management is…so much worse.
: Hey. Psst. Word on the street is youre trying to build communism again!
Did you know the severs are, inexplicably, still running?
The Mesmer was my jam in GW1
My man!
Guild Wars 1 was a MMORPG-lite that had instanced territories outside of towns (and even those were instanced, albeit much larger) where you could take up to 8 people with you. Crucially, every class had about one thousand skills you could combine pretty freely and you could second class. You could do some DnD-Tier bullshit combinations of stats with those, given all the weird status effect thingies it gave you to play around with
And then Guild Wars 2 is just WoW
…we also have brains capable of abstract reasoning, but nevermind that!
Not entirely convinced this is true of the people who claim 2 sharp teeth means we gotta do factory farming
I’m not defending this guys approach, I’m too much of the opinion that if you think you can blockade fire exits you do not understand their purpose or basic levels of abstraction.
That said, you can have the greatest, safest, armed security guard patrolled bike storage at your place, unless literally everywhere you go also has that, you still want a fallback bike
Especially compared to cars bicycles are more often stolen, fucked up, vandalized or just suffer something like a popped inner tube due to road debris. If you actually depend on your bike for transportation, it’s not a bad idea to have a fallback
It is if one of your leftist movement is the Antideutsche
I do not understand why you would release this. This is going to be pro-Israel PR for like 20% of any given global north nation and and anti-Israel PR for like everybody else.
I do know a few young people are tech/programming wizards but “generally tech savy” people seem to be declining. It’s either you’re really into it or barely know anything outside popular apps.
I feel like we also got a new kind of guy, the tech-forward digital illiterate. They run most of everything.
Honestly if you’re over the age of like 30 I think you gotta realize the luddites were, like, entirely correct.
