I believe Australia has mandatory voting and achieves a ~95% participation of registered voters basically every election, though they do enforce it with either a day in court or a fine.
I do wonder if you fined people, or wasted a day of theirs with court, whether it would have an impact in Greece after a couple of elections?
The linked app Stremio will work on android, you just download the apk directly as it's not on available on Fdroid, the add-on will work with android and VPNs work on android either natively or via there own app, depends on who your VPN provider is.
I'd suggest using a VPN, if you're in a first works country, basically torrenting can be recorded by your ISP/movie studios etc, whereas streaming typically won't be
Most VPNs typically will have a desktop app (if using windows) that you can use to make sure it's on and functional etc (and can even force apps to not be able to torrent when its turned off)
If you live in a 3rd world country don't worry about the VPN
Beyond that, what you want is in terms of simplicity is something like Stremio with the torrentio add-on installed, this will allow Stremio to find torrents for whatever you want to watch, you can select quality, language, etc with it. It'll work for film and TV.
Install Stremio and then install Torrentio
You can download the apk from the website below: Apk here: https://www.stremio.com/downloads Add-on for Stremio here: https://torrentio.strem.fun/
They're explicitly not sending out review codes until launch suggesting that it's likely a bad game, but also means they're likely just going to try and make their money with unrefundable day 1 sales on Playstation/Xbox store
Are you using PCVR with steam or is this quest exclusively?
If using steam:
Super; you're literally a super hero, there are missions with different powers or a free play mode where you can mix and match different powers in each hand etc.
Garden of the sea; basically a cute animal crossing type of thing grow your plants, make friends with animals etc.
If just using quest:
Neko Atsume; a cute Japanese cat game where the cats just come and visit, you can interact with them, give them treats, also has a passthrough mode if using Quest 3
Tentacular Not played it, but it does look like a fun one with our a major need for coordination
I'll try to come up with some more suggestions
Also re beatsabre, you can turn off death/failing via the cheats as well, it's how I play and how I introduce everyone to it
Awh, that's kind of crappy. I'm hoping they just took it as a gag gift; be prepared for anything, a bit like Jack Jack in The Incredibles.
I hope theynever have to use it, but I hope they do learn how important it is.
Same for cleaning dryer lint; before I was born the entire family who lived across the road from my mum perished in a house fire from dryer lint catching.
Also add Carbon monoxide detectors to that list of devices you never want to need, but should never be without
Whilst I've got no particular suggestions for it, I'd suggest taking a look at humble bundle, they do games bundles (and other book/asset bundles) at very good prices, normally focusing on a genre/publishes/studio/franchise. This is how a lot of people get going with steam and start to build a library of games, the bundles are often cheaper than the listed price of a single game.
Very true, I don't disagree there
I have no disagreement with your assertion, aside from the neglected aspect of in terms of energy in Vs energy out; the research is likely to help inform nuclear weapons design, yet if they are able to achieve more energy out than in (3mj out Vs 2mj in (though of course they required 300mj to run the lasers to produce this reaction)) then they are providing important data that may help inform different future designs of power generating fusion reactors, this is something that current other designs don't appear to have achieved afaik.
I doubt they will ever really use this style as a functional form of power generation, but if what they learn from the research allows eventually for a longer functioning fusion reaction that has an overall positive energy output, then it may be rather valuable.
Thermonuclear bombs are a mixture of fission AND fusion, the amount of energy required to achieve fusion requires fission to provide said energy.
Lasers igniting fusion is a bit of a more of a stretch to create a weapon from (the lasers require 300 mega joules of energy which in turn is 2mj of energy into the reaction and 3mj energy out); it may provide context and more information for fusion as a whole but that information is relevant to both weapons and energy research, not one or the other.
Researching this doesn't prevent renewables being researched or rolled out? I think the nuclear scientists developing this might be better researching this as opposed to researching fission reactors or researching renewables as this is likely their area of expertise.
Fusion is a long shot but if it was achieved it would be world changing (hopefully for the better)
Outta curiosity, how is fusion viable for bomb research? (Ignoring the fact that the world's current nuclear arsenal is already incredibly powerful, and that 100mega ton bombs have been designed and 50Mton bombs have been tested)
Edit: thank you to all for providing additional context, I see your point regarding more research is valuable for both weapons and energy research, though to say definitively that it is used for weapons research is neither here nor there.
I find it interesting how it appeared clear in 2016 US election that Reddit for example was being a target of Russian interference, (alongside other places like Facebook and Britain during Brexit), even with Russia in a weakened state China appears to have seen what was being done as valuable and taken up the task
The playbook always seems to be to stoke wedge issues, including funding groups on both sides of the political isle; funding the NRA and BLM seems to be two of the most common examples. The reality being that the amount of disruption and destabilisation that is achieved, it must be that these governments must see it as good value for their money.
Can I ask what you like about it?
Literally every part of my experience having gone there 2/3 times was shite; soggy chips, overcrowded and obnoxiously loud, the chicken burger literally is no better than my local fast food joint (and a hell of a lot worse than the slightly upmarket fast food places).
Most of that could be forgiven if the prices were reasonable but they're not; I seriously struggle to see any redeeming factors or reason for it's popularity beyond the meme of "cheeky Nando's", yet there's not anything cheeky about it beyond the cheek of what they get away with!
/Rant
Honestly Nando's is overpriced crap.
Less likely but if you get the chance to try a Pepe's burrito they're pretty good.
Pepe's is basically a fast food version of Nando's, with better ingredients and price for the portion size. As such it's about as far as I'll stray into fast food.
God Nando's pisses me off.
Interestingly parmesan in any quantity over a couple of grams still messes me up, it really depends on the person
If you can get lactose free milk where you live (which in and of itself is a godsend), then you can make lactose free mozzarella from it, just follow online videos for meeting your own mozzarella (it takes like 30 mins and you can freeze it)
