I learnt that over a decade ago.

Don’t buy a Ubisoft, EA, or frankly any big publisher game.

For which version though?

I lost access to my original copy because I completely missed the Microsoft shenanigans of account transfering due to not playing for 10+ years.

Kind of feel cheated as I recently got the itch to play again and was unable.

Any recommendation of the best way to play Minecraft now? I’m not particularly keen on rebuying it :/

Sir, this is a shitpost.

Oh no!

Anyway…

Pugilistic - TIL a new word!

No worries. What I’d give to shoot the person that came up with the FPTP voting system…

I feel like you took my comment to be a critique of the EU’s position, which is not what I was trying to say at all.

I presume that such an agreement would be in the EUs interest - hence the expression of such. Public clarification at this stage of the ‘cost’- as you put it - is a great way to take it off the official policy booklet. Which doesn’t make sense to me.

I am aware that UK politics is stupid. I live here.

If the move would be of interest to the EU, then unless they are completely politically inept, can these officials not see how saying it would require ECJ oversight before an election risks it being eliminated from Labour policy?

It gives a free attack point for the Tories and couldn’t be a bigger face palm - for anyone actually interested in it, of course.

Where do you download programs from?

Time to learn how to Linux, I guess…

Anyone that expected the current British government to do anything a government is meant to do… Well… Let me introduce you to the past 14 years of disappointment.

That seems like a big reaching conclusion based on very little data.

Friendship goes both ways and requires equal effort from both parties to make it work. Being rigid and unadapatable is a great way to whittle away your friends unnecessarily.

I mean, yeah… There’s no such thing as being an ethical billionaire.

By creating way more CO2 in the process to further accelerate a climate disaster?

Your heart is in the right place - just the execution is wrong.

If reviews don’t flip back to positive in response (seeing as they only went negative in anticipation of this policy being enforced), then we have no way of indicating our dissatisfaction next time Sony do something undesirable.

Stop. Please stop. Doomerism compounds the problem, it is not a neutral stance.

Has irreparable damage already been done? Yes.

Will it be worse if we don’t do anything as soon as possible? Yes. And each moment that we don’t do the thing, it gets a little bit worse.

But each moment we do do the thing, it gets a little bit better.

The Earth will relatively be 1.5°, likely 2°C hotter, regardless of what actions are now taken. But 2°C hotter is far, far preferable to 4°C.

Everything we do as individuals and societies matters. I understand it feels daunting, and I’m not really advocating for you to drive less or eat less meat, because ultimately these changes won’t be driven by individuals making the choices.

However, please please please support and push, protest, fight for societal changes for us collectively to drive less, eat less meat, and corporate carbon taxation.

Let's compare it with adult pornography. Does the consumption of adult pornography remove the desire to have sex with another adult in the long term? Or does it reinforce the sexually desirable characteristics of adults?

I get that it's not necessarily simple, however… Firstly, surely streaming companies could push for a standard formatting to make their lives easier. And second, why does a track that was previously explicit suddenly start playing as the clean version one day? Why is the data for it continually being changed?

Oh my God, thank you for the confirmation.
