Yeah, while I'm not really a fan of JSO, sending people to jail for damaging a wooden frame is pretty insane, for 2 years no less. Would be overkill even if they had damaged the paintings IMO.

Pretty sure both chains offer vegan pizzas. So then it's only an atrocity against Italian cuisine (not because it's vegan, but because you could've chosen a proper pizzeria).

I've only eaten at Pizza Hut once and it was in Shanghai, in 2008. It was fine. Never had Domino's. There are excellent Italian pizzerias all over Europe, so I never feel the need to go for a chain.

Definitely unethical. Domestic cats are already a huge problem for wild bird populations. Why would you want to intentionally make that problem even worse?

The Spirit and the Mouse

That one is currently free on the Epic Games Store btw

It's also a problem that's getting worse. When I was in school in the 2000s, like 80% of the kids took the bus and half of the remaining ones (like me) came by bike. Now my niece goes to the same school and she's one of very few kids still taking the bus there. The schoolyard turns into a chaotic mess of SUVs every morning. I guess it goes hand in hand with helicopter parenting becoming normalized.

Yes, you can pair used ones without any problem. They're not locked to a specific piece of hardware.

Schon Wahnsinn wie das einfach als Teil des Lebens hingenommen wird, aber wenn es mal nach vielen Jahren eine einzige Terrorattacke mit 3 Toten gibt ist das ein Notstand der sofort radikale Maßnahmen erfordert.

I don't think a single unprovoked attack this decade and no deaths from wolf attacks in Europe in the 21st century make this a "complicated situation".

Schon richtig. Aber ob es da dann hilft, aus der Partei auszutreten und eine neue Partei zu gründen, die den Grünen vielleicht ein paar Prozent wegnehmen können, aber vermutlich nicht genug um in den Bundestag einzuziehen, ist die andere Frage. Wäre natürlich schön wenn sie deutlich mehr Erfolg haben, aber das halte ich eher nicht für wahrscheinlich. Mit dem Führungswechsel bei den Grünen wäre vielleicht auch gerade ein guter Moment gewesen, in der eigenen Partei eine Veränderung zu bewirken.

Habe dazu gemischte Gefühle. Warte zwar schon lange auf eine linke Partei die ich wirklich aus Überzeugung wählen kann, aber dieses ständige Aufsplittern der linken Parteien hilft am Ende nur den Rechten.

This is still all about Ursula von der Leyen's personal vendetta after her pony died, isn't it?

Google Glass was not AR. They were "smart glasses" with severely limited functionality for an extremely high price. That's mainly why they failed, not the privacy backlash. The majority of people don't care about privacy, just look at what information people put on the Internet.

Interesting picture that took me down a bit of a rabbit hole, as I was wondering why it had "Türkischer Basar" or "Turkish Bazar" as the destination. Turns out that between 1980 and 1993, there was indeed a Turkish bazar inside the Bülowstraße station in Berlin, which had been closed as a regular station due to the separation from East Berlin.

Moondrop Chu 2 earphones. I use expensive Hifi gear at home, but those are more than good enough on the go while also being cheap enough for me not to have to worry about them getting damaged or stolen.

Nothing really. Someone else already wrote that Android is technically Linux. But you can also get "regular" Linux on mobile devices, it's just a matter of using a distribution with mobile-friendly UI as well as getting driver support for the phone's hardware. Ubuntu touch exists for example, but only works on a limited number of devices and even on supported devices it's not really suitable for the average user yet.

There is an article about him on Know Your Meme. Apparently it's just a character some guy on Twitter made.

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

Steam refunds are easy and convenient. I wouldn't personally bother doing that just to post a "protest review" either, but it's definitely possible to do without losing any money.

No, that's incorrect. None of the previous games required it, except for multiplayer. For example you could play the Ghost of Tsushima campaign just fine without an account. This one seems to be entirely singleplayer and yet requires an account for no reason.
