First, no he did not. He released information relating to government officials engaging in misconduct. Hillary Clinton had been a government official for a long time, Trump had not. Of course youre more likely to get that kind of information on her and not him.

But even if he had, having a political allegiance is not a crime punishable by prison as far as I know.

Plus He's talking about the steam deck here. That's 1 configuration. And Rocket League is already on steam for those who bought it before epic did, runs fine in proton. The dude is full of shit and making up excuses, it's obvious this is a business agreement and nothing to do with practicality and in lying about it he's hurting his reputation.

When people feel ignored in a democratic country, they begin to feel like the democracy they live in is a sham or that democracy itself doesn't work.

Votes like this aren't necessarily about "we need a different direction" and more about desperation and/or anger. They want to show the elites of their country that they still have the power, they want to cost them something for treating the population like it's there to be harvested from, they want to shake up the status quo at all cost.

They want to prove to themselves that their vote still matters.

Letting it get to this point is really bad governance. Once you get here, either they win, or they don't. And of they don't, most of the people who support them have their suspicions confirmed, they don't live in a democracy, they voted and didn't get what they want, again. This creates a division that is difficult to come back from.

I started living this way too. Honestly, fast food doesn't even have a value proposition anymore. It's not cheaper than some local family run taco or burger truck/shack, and significantly crappier. Also, the lady or guy handing you your food keeps the money after paying the cook and what not, if they're not the cook themselves. I'd rather that than it go to frozen patty distributors and stock buybacks or whatever they're up to these days.

It's marginally cheaper than a run of the mill sit down joint.

Also soda... I don't understand why anyone drinks that shit. I used to, then I stopped, and now when I try it it's gross honestly. Syrup with bubbles in it. You want some, make some ginger ale, its easy and delicious. You cut up some ginger, cook it in a pot with sugar and water, let it cool, put it in a pressure bottle and pitch yeast, it's ready in a couple of days.

I've never ordered door dash or any of that stuff, as soon as I heard about it o was put off by the idea.

You've got the right idea man. No lazy food. If it's not worth effort you're not actually hungry.

Good god Iran's shit is all over the place. He gets sentenced to 6 years, appeals it, gets sentenced to death. Death dude. For saying something out loud. How do governments like this expect to ever gain legitimacy in the eyes of the people they rule?

In order for something to be fraud someone has to be defrauded. If she pays her rent there's no crime. I doubt they'd try to get her charged with fraud for not paying her rent.

Yes.

A rule of thumb: any and all proprietary applications spy on you, this goes doubly so for the big social corps. There is an epidemic of spyware and it's all being sold to you as a benefit.

Lol they didn't "ban" news, they refused to pay to make the news relevant. Canada basically banned news sharing on the internet. They can repeal the stupid law.

I would drive the shit out of that car

What happened to telling governments to go fuck themselves? I remember when it was on the governments to police their citizens and if software violated their laws it was on the government to stop citizens accessing it. Why can they just not comply?

The problem is that the Taliban have popular support. The media don't want to report it, but this is a society where public life has always been under the purview of men, it's a largely Muslim country, very rural, and the alternative power centers there are chock full of child molesters and corrupt individuals. The Taliban, despite their strong ideological position, has a lot going for them. They're not taking bribes to sell out their values. They're capable of maintaining stability. Even if people disagree with some or other things about them, theyre better than the alternatives. Fact is, they're in power there because they're the only organization capable of holding power there.

It's not about trusting some idiot. It's about attaching your identity to your activities online. I remember when these websites used to advise against doxing yourself.
