I played through the third recently, yes there are a few mods. The game isn’t very mod friendly so there’s not a ton there but I found like a dozen or so that were worth installing on nexus.

Game still kinda sucks but good enough for one play through if you liked the first (two)

Oh, I thought hydrogen was colourless. TIL.

I haven’t been on that train for a while but I thought the entire line was electrified, the three stations and parts of the line definitely are. Either way it doesn’t make sense to me to build up hydrogen infrastructure instead of electrifying the sections of rail that aren’t yet. Can’t be that much in Germany. In parts where it just isn’t possible for whatever reasons why not install a few batteries?

Sims is great but their content policy is insane. While I don’t think this game looked amazing it did have potential and would’ve at least been an option. So we’re back to only having Sims in that genre now. Let’s hope that paralives pulls through, they seem to at least still be going

Again with this bullshit.

“As it comes to, particularly the creators out there, look, our view is, a lot of them have gone from hobbyists to professionals. And it’s part of our job to make sure they can do that and they do get paid and they see the monetary rewards if they make awesome content,” Howard said.

This is such horseshit. This isn’t about “making sure that they get paid” this is about Bethesda getting a cut of those profits, nothing more nothing less. The way modding is right now is perfect, at least from a user’s perspective. You get everything for free but if you can afford it and want to then you can donate to the creator.

There’s no need for a paid system because that excludes people who can’t afford to pay for the stuff. They are already excluded from official content because everything comes as a paid dlc nowadays and now you also want to exclude them from modding?

I think this will only hurt the modding community and the only ones really profiting from this are the corporations.

That’s a different story. This one is about that time Russia/USSR paid pepsi with old military equipment to get around sanctions. I think they couldn’t actually receive it because they’re not allowed to have that but it’s a funny story regardless. I think someone already posted the link

Pro: formatting

Con: manual organizing

There’s waging war and then there’s firebombing a city with little military value, murdering 25000 civilians.

Even just going off the article you posted “helped” is a strong word in regards to distributing malware through their framework. It appears that their framework had simply been hijacked by hackers to distribute malware and they had no involvement in that.

I’m not saying they’re trustworthy but the situation isn’t nearly as bad as this biased summary suggests.

The same website has rated express VPN as one of the most trustworthy vpns in their most recent review. Based on the high amount of independent audits the company is performing.

Definitely do more research. I’m going to look into it myself but I’m paying until June anyways and I don’t think an immediate switch is necessary.

Again? Hasn’t changed for me since they started doing that in November. YouTube is quite annoying to use for me these days, the site takes forever to load and only starts loading when I switch to the tab. Best thing to do is adding everything to a queue, videos load normally then for some reason. As a result I’m using YouTube less though, so not necessarily a bad thing.

I won’t trust a tech company with my most intimate secrets. Human therapists won’t get fully replaced by ai

Oh my god I should do that. Just hire some actors and rent an Airbnb.

There is still a difference between basically nothing and literally nothing. Spotify is better than pirating and CDs/vinyl/digital directly from them is better than Spotify.

You’re not hurting the companies, you’re hurting the artists. I’m not saying don’t pirate at all, especially from artists like Taylor swift. But maybe if you’re listening to a small artist, especially if they’re independent, consider buying their cd.

It’s a free account, what’d be stopping you from just creating a new one?

I read this morning that return dislike no longer works, apparently YouTube changed something in the backend. Might want to verify that and potentially remove it from the list for now

Well, there’s your problem

It is avoidable overall but it always requires an effort on my part which is the wrong way around imo.

Ultimately my stance on it is that it’s annoying but there’s only so much we can reasonably do about it. I don’t expect dB or the police to patrol train stations to make sure nobody is smoking. It’s largely avoidable and if people want to kill themselves then they’re free to do that. We have much bigger problems to focus on, like the one you mentioned: cars. (And maybe if more people used the train instead of cars there’d be more of an incentive make sure most of your customers aren’t being bothered by a minority)

Not everyone can buy a gun, to get the paperwork you need to meet a somewhat arbitrary age requirement and you have to be “mentally stable”. So we are discriminating against mentally handicapped people. It makes sense, I don’t even disagree with it, just saying that it’s the same logic as op’s.

Okay, maybe a better example: if you’re interested in becoming president you have to be at least 40. Sounds like age discrimination to me :P

I don’t smoke so I’m not super invested in this either. However, I travel a lot by train and besides the trains always being late what annoys me most are smokers. Smoking is already banned at all train stations and bus stops but the first thing some people do when exiting a train is lighting a cigarette. In the middle of a crowd. Imo the only way to stop them from doing that in crowds is by banning smoking completely & this law is a good way to do that, but it would have to be an EU-wide measure imo. Otherwise it’s too easy to just drive to a neighbouring country and buy a pack of cigarettes.
