Technically yes, but they didn't actually require it in the beginning and they even sold it in regions without PSN.

Depends. I almost always buy clothes and shoes in actual stores, as shopping for them online is a wasteful hassle. There are also some shops that I enjoy visiting, like second-hand stores or Asian supermarkets, where it's interesting to just browse and buy interesting things I wasn't specifically looking for.

On the other hand, I always buy stuff like electronics online. Electronics stores are more expensive and have a way smaller selection, so I don't bother with them. Generally if I'm looking for something specific, buying it online is just more convenient.

It's not like they can track what phone model and operating system you have just by you being in the area. I think it could still have to do with the military base though. The phone could have picked up some sort of military frequencies which it couldn't process and so it crashed.

One of my favorite ways to waste time during my high-school days.

I'd argue that nobody relied on the EU for defense in the first place. Prior to the war in Ukraine, Europe was not exactly known for getting militarily involved in conflicts or as a defensive ally, quite the opposite. See all the "strongly worded letter" jokes. I don't think Taiwan is under any illusions about getting major military support from Europe, no European country (except Vatican) even recognizes it. The EU and Ukraine were never formally allied prior to the war, so if anything, the amount of support was/is larger than expected.

Whatsapp is ubiquitous in my country, so while I try to use Signal with as many people as I can, I do use Whatsapp at least every couple days. Never had Instagram or Threads. I have an inactive facebook account.

Actually checked my Facebook feed recently out of curiosity. It's amazing how dead it is these days. I could scroll for ages and none of the posts were from people on my friends list, or even pages I liked. Everything was just generic shit.

I thought the same about CDPR.

I've been a vegetarian for about 20 years now. Other than that, I don't actively restrict my diet as I never got close to being overweight. My main meals are mostly healthy I'd say, but I do probably consume too much sugar.

You're posting this on lemmy.ml. Think about that for a second.

What are you trying to tell me? Arabic numerals are the ones in use almost everywhere around the world, so 1,2,3 and so on. The picture shows Eastern Arabic numerals, which while related are not the same thing.

Looks great, but I'm skeptical if it'll ever see an actual release. Remastering the entire game with the kind of asset quality we see for this single room would require an enormous amount of time and effort, especially with people working for free.

BG3 like everyone else. I'm at 40 hours now, in act 2. Going to play a bit less this week though, as the game hasn't been great for my sleep cycle.
