John Bolton might be a hawk but he is pro NATO and anti-Trump(now). He might want to overthrow Maduro but he has no influence over the Trump administration nowadays.

In greek, bird is slang for penis(πουλί).

The Gulf War was about kicking Iraq out of Kuwait, after Iraq invaded. It had a wide support, both worldwide and within the Arab world. Saudi Arabia and Egypt actively participated.

EA DICE(creators of Battlefield) is based in Sweden. EA Gothenburg(aka Ghost Games), creators of the Need for Speed games are also based in Sweden. Funcom, creators of Dune Awakening are swedish.

Avalanche Studios, creators of Just Cause games, are based in Sweden. Mojang, creators of Minecraft are swedish too. Frictional Games, creators of Amnesia and Soma are swedish. Fatshark, creators of Warhammer 40k Darktide are swedish.

It is important to note that nowadays, games are developed by devs all over the world, especially AAA games. But there are a lot of game devs based in Sweden.

I’ve read on Reuters that China is probably under promising and they will do better than they claim. At least China understands that climate change is real and is trying to do something about it. Unlike some other country. The bar is on the floor, yet some countries are struggling.

The more we normalize assassinations, the worse the world becomes. America is slightly more fucked today, not because this guy died, but because extrajudicial assassinations are not cool. This only accelerates the collapse of american society and rule of law.

Some tankies/accelerationists want this, but they are mostly clueless kids.

If 1 in 100 men is a rapist, then he can rape a lot more women than 1 in 100. Very few people are responsible for most occasions, similarly with divorces, etc.

Also why would anyone admit to being a rapist?

Genocide is a protected term. Only crimes against humanity in the Genoc region of Poland can be called that.

Carney has the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever.

The norwegians are shameless subhumans, unlike the englightened swedes, where Tesla has experienced a 90%+ drop in sales.

Cambodia isnt great either. With B, you can always move to a decent part of Mexico.

The percentages are irrelevant, the relation between them is relevant. And Greece is the top, non muslim majority, country. Far above all other European countries.

Even if ADL is a joke, this should be an indication that things were never good in Greece, in regards to antisemitism. Especially since the data is from 2014-2015, probably near peak doomerism/evil jewish bankers/etc for greeks.

Το ADL είναι χαζός οργανισμός, τα νούμερα μπορεί να είναι λάθος, αλλά η σχέση ανάμεσα στα νούμερα νομίζω ότι είναι σχετικά σωστή. Υπόψιν, τα νούμερα είναι από το 2014-2015. Η Ελλάδα πάντα είχε θέμα με τον αντισημιτισμό και από τη άκρα δεξιά και από την άκρα αριστερά.

Is this taking action against Israel or against israelis. Would you be fine if your country’s government did something and then people who you dont know were aggressive towards you?

How does this action help Palestine in any way?

Greece is the most antisemitic, non muslim majority, country in the world. I am greek btw.

They did this in Sweden too. Then people stopped buying energy drinks, because most people self checkout and you had to wait for an employee to come check that you are an adult. And swedes being swedes, they would rather die than go through that.

Now they have a permanent employee checking from afar with a tablet, approving people without any intervention or interruption. I wouldnt be surprised if the energy drink brands partially pay for them.

Size matters. A bigger screen is a big quality of life improvement for both work and content consumption.

On the other hand, a smaller and lighter laptop is more comfortable to use and carry. Personally i think 13" is the ideal laptop size. If you want to use it more as a desktop replacement, you can always plug in a monitor.

Sure but then you only waste your time. Some more casual gachas, like star rail, are deliberately designed to be casual, in order to increase their retention rate(ie keep most of the players playing in the long term). They dont require much time daily(you can afk do the dailies in the background within 5mins) and while there is replayable content, it isnt necessary and eventually you will be done with that too.

Some gachas are more hardcore, demanding more time, which enables them to have a smaller pool of players who are more dedicated(ie less likely to quit because of sunk cost).

I assume addiction rates are higher on those gachas, then again mainstream casual gachas like star rail, have tens of millions of players, so maybe they have more “addicted” players(total, not as a percentage).

A better comparison would be alcohol. Many people consume alcohol but very few people become alcoholics. Maybe it is genetic predisposition or environmental/mental factors that lead people to abusing it.

Similarly with gachas, millions of people play them as free to play, without ever spending money. A lot of people spend 10-20€ a month and very few people spend hundreds or thousands of euro every month.

As far as honkai star rail is concerned, i enjoy the story, environments, music and the characters and i recommend it. You dont need to spend and you can do everything(or miss like 5% of the rewards, if you dont want to tryhard) without ever spending money.

The main selling point of the game is the story and you can do that with any characters. If you dont want to participate in the endgame, you can ignore it. Ultimately it is a singleplayer turned based “rpg”, though it is actually just an anime+idle game. Every 40 days, you get a new episode/season.
