No quantum mechanics. Things have concrete properties even when no one’s watching, and they can all be observed at the same time. The universe is complex but understandable.

Also, P=NP and π is 3.33 repeating, just for the lols.

How is “being bad” decided?

If it’s decided internally (“bad” is what you believe is bad), then all the objectivists get a free pass for being assholes. Hitler is a supermodel, etc.

If it’s decided externally (there’s an universal definition of “bad”), how far into the future does it propagate? If I rescue from drowning someone who will genocide all the Dutch in the future, when do I go bald?

That said, beauty pageants would be much funnier, with trolley problems instead of talent competitions.

Spacewar! was a F2P PvP game with no microtransactions and no battle pass. Although it’s hard to quantify exact player numbers (it precedes Steam charts), for a while it was the most played videogame in the world.

Its real-time graphics and multiplayer combat were very influential, and widely copied by many other games.

If you’re referring to the US’ Video Privacy Protection Act, it was passed only because it slightly embarrassed a Supreme Court nominee.

So for there to be half-decent online privacy laws in the US, first someone will have to leak Clarence Thomas’ Pornhub search history or something like that.

The TV UI is horrible and has negative development: Less features and more bugs every release.

Do you want to go to a video’s channel? Well, that depends on where you are:

• Go to Home.

• Long-press on a video.

• Press “Go to channel”.

• Go to Subscriptions.

• Long-press on a video.

• Fewer options because fuck you.

• Start the video, press down, up, right, select.

• Oh, it was a short video? You fell into the trap! Down goes to another video. Go back, select the video again, press right, right, select.

And that’s just one example.

That’s how politics work in the US.

Not really, unfortunately. All these “if you don’t vote for A you’re voting for B” arguments would be a little more applicable if the US presidential election was a simple majority vote, but anyone with the most basic of US politics knowledge has heard of the Electoral College. Hillary Clinton wasn’t elected president in 2016, but not because more people voted for Trump.

And that’s without taking into the account voting suppression. Would you tell someone who can’t vote because of racist laws that they are “voting for Trump”?

Regarding the IP address, how are they going to get it? I assumed that servers wouldn’t pass them along to other nodes, isn’t that the case?

Look up the Everburn Blade in Baldur’s Gate 3.

REMEMBER US! REMEMBER THAT WE ONCE LIVED!

It’s the same, but in the US you have to add the sales tax ($2) and then tip at least 110%. That brings the total to $21.

This is terrible, and Russia should be punished for it.

The correct way of influencing Spanish-speaking countries is to install fascist puppet dictatorships. Arming and bank-rolling right-wing militias is also accepted, you won’t be getting DW articles about that.

Not really. Every instance of fascism has been really good at adapting to a local culture and political environment. Just to cite the major ones from 1930s Europe, there are clear differences between nazism (German fascism), Francoism (Spanish fascism) and Italian fascism (the original).

It’d be absurd for fascism in the USA to parade with swastikas, pagan symbols and Hugo Boss uniforms. An American fascism would use stars and stripes, crosses and… red baseball caps, I guess. In the same way, Modi’s Indian fascism uses Indian iconography to maintain power.
