My experience with them is you can’t even find the modlog if you look when they remove comments. I guess they don’t federate it and/or it only shows if you’re logged in?

Good incentives to block their instances.

I have had comments removed and could never see why. Now I just block their instances.

They roleplay as communist censors since that’s all they can afford to do from their positions.

No but the red paste is most likely explained by the tanks that were verifiably there. They could have crushed people with other machinery but they had tanks.

Hamburg licence plates say HH.

Don’t worry about it.

Producers sometimes like to include personal references.

I’d rather have that than micro transactions or unfinished games with half of what was promised or less.

I agree, people buy cars like this though, to me modern cars are extremely annoying because of this extreme cost-cutting without any thought put into it. They even lack basic functions like dimming the gauge lights that were standard in the 1980s on cheap cars, or turning off a screen completely and still having the steering wheel controls for the radio… turning off ESP for getting out of slippery places that it gets confused by is also a challenge on a lot of cars.

People have very different priorities from commercial users that need an impeccable safety record and no compromise on reliability, they’re buying a steel box on wheels to get from A to B, preferably in a fashionable shape.

If you’ve ever nearly died because the car decided a reflection was an imminent collision risk and braked hard on the motorway, you know that cars are way worse than Boeing.

Everything is integrated into the computer network for every function… so if you want an old style analog speedometer how analog do you go? Cable on the gearbox (no software, no bugs, no electronics if you choose a mechanical gauge)? Separate sensor near the transmission (basic analog electronics)? Analog readout from the multiplexed network on an electronic gauge?

Cars are already incredibly complicated and expensive to meet current legal requirements.

So many discounts on those investment funds for office real estate nowadays, you can tell they’re trying to attract the naive and uninformed.

So he didn’t help the genocidal maniacs of El Salvador? (Reagan did too)

I don’t understand why anyone is ever charitable with politicians in terms of their morals. They volunteer for the job, it is extremely well compensated financially and in lifelong privileges for high offices, and yet when they display principles beforehand and then don’t act on them it isn’t their fault?

Sure it may not 100% be their fault but it isn’t like many have the guts to resign, or fire the people under them making bad decisions, or anything of consequence.

That might explain some insane replies I’ve seen in the past.

That’s what I wrote.

They have DRM, even if easy to go around it, it doesn’t make sense to pay loads for a shitty medium with obstacles to getting what’s on it… it sends the wrong message to the criminal organisations peddling them.

Maybe they didn’t like the guy and jumped at the occasion.

Works like that in Belgium as well.

France trusts that people will be nice but if landlords play dumb there’s 10% interest per month after one month, and it can be expedited in small claims court if you prove bad faith and/or fraud.

Povidone-iodine.

On me it barely works to use alcohol, I don’t know how they make the stuff for surgeries but it is the right viscosity and concentration of iodine and other stuff to really remove anything alive without using a lot.

I have yet to find something that works as well for cotton with gunky deodorant residue, old t-shirts need a hot wash with a lot of soap and vinegar from time to time, sometimes two washes in a row.

You don’t need to shave, using the antiseptic they cover you in before surgery is enough in my experience, and won’t cause itching and cuts like shaving does.

I meant the checks by dealers are the thing in the US. And the “loopholes” for private sales and transfers aren’t everywhere and their federal laws are harsher than in most of Europe.

If someone has traces of THC in their system they’re automatically a criminal if they handle a gun. If they downloaded a film and they’re a convenient target politically they can also get in trouble (unenforced laws are enforceable).

A lot of semiautomatic mechanisms can be converted to select fire with very little tooling or investment, you don’t need legally detained “machine guns” per the NFA definition to smuggle guns, anything cheap and untraceable enough will do.

Seems like that conspiracy would require more people not leaking it, ever, than just being incompetent in counter insurgency like every other military force in modern times.
