There's a tension between socialism and internationalism. If you're going to tax the wealthy to give money to the poor, you run the risk of the wealthy leaving the country and more poor people arriving. There's also the issue of many voters not being super solidaric with those who are not like them. In a sense, all socialism ends up being national by necessity. I don't think that's the worst thing ever. The policy combination of welfare and tight borders (or at least a citizenship that's hard to get) does not inevitably lead to concentration camps.

Reasonable take. I'm just disputing the blood part.

Eh, isn't Overwatch essentially a continuation of the TF2 design?

Funded yes*, but blood? Come on. Who are the British people shedding blood to defend him from, exactly? Upvoted cause it's amusing, but it's a bit exaggerated.

*The British royal family and how they're funded is a whole thing. If they lost their titles but kept their possessions they'd arguably be richer than they are currently. You could reasonably dispute their right to their possessions, so I'm not gonna argue either way, though.

The building models in Hogwarts are amazing, though. Hogwarts and Hogsmeade are both gorgeous. It heavily leans on the work done for the movies, of course, but it's still amazing looking.

Yeah, but I get tired of this like halfway through the game. I don't want to lower the difficulty, I just want fewer enemies and more frequent drops so I don't have to grind so fucking hard. There should be a percent slider for filler content so players like me could set it to 10% or so. I'm currently short on small machine cores to upgrade armor. Come on! What's that bullshit? Considering how many watchers I've killed I should never ever be short on that.

Played Horizon Forbidden West on PC and it's such a grind fest. What's even the point. Not sure why it gets such good reviews, except for how pretty it is. High hopes for God of War Ragnarok, though.

The reasons you'd ever want an Xbox used to be Halo and Fable. Now it's, uh, I dunno, does anyone care about Starfield?

While true, I think your statement is misleading. No one should get all their news from one source, but Facebook is particularly bad, and TikTok is many times worse than that again. Facebook will show you the misinformation of the highest bidder. TikTok will do that but also be beholden to the Chinese government. Not sure if the content is worse than that of Fox News or the Daily Mail (that's a low bar to squeeze in under), but they're at least sneakier.

Astronomers would round pi to 1.

Funding issues, according to the article

I'm so confused. Did mushrooms help us increase our intelligence? I don't get it.

That's great, but of course it only applies to medication covered by the NHS. Otherwise it's not prescribed.

Booba. Witcher 1 was baaad.

Huh? They've been pretty ok after the 1st one, which admittedly was very cringe.

All property is potentially subject to government seizure. Just like we're all military reservists. These things are implicit, and we just hope and pray it won't come to that. But total war is definitely on the cards this decade, at least for some countries.

All of GDP is spendable if the will is there. It's not at the moment, but let's see how this decade turns out.

I'm using OSX for work and Homebrew is really slow there too. Honestly though that's really my only complaint. That, and some aesthetic yank caused by it being a bunch of shell and ruby scripts in a trench coat, but that's not an objective thing.

Brew sucks. It's soooo slooooow. Flatpak is awesome, AppImage is weird, and Snaps are kinda there as well I guess.

Dude. You played an RPG in spite of the story. There are better dhooters out there. Go play those instead
