Interesting that they’ll do another model for the US, they’ve completely scrapped the Niro EV in Europe in favor of the EV3.

Yes, I was also around for the Bush presidency, and I’m pretty sure. Bush had some pretty shit policies but was also very much an establishment republican who was not going to fundamentally change the system. He didn’t have a rabid cult of personality surrounding him. There was no Project 2025-type plan to turn America into a theocracy. Bush never “joked” about becoming a dictator, becoming president for life or putting his political opponents into jail. He didn’t threaten his NATO allies with letting Russia invade them.

I could go on, but the point is: America didn’t just elect another conservative who will try to roll back LGBT rights, it elected a Mussolini-style Fascist. Thinking “Oh we’ll just vote him out in 4 years” is… optimistic.

IDK. Compared to Trump, Bush seems downright reasonable in hindsight. He was at least willing to work within a democratic framework. This will be a new level of political extremism in America and downplaying it won’t help.

I wouldn’t say giving Harris a 50.4 percent chance of winning is predicting her to win. That’s effectively a coin toss.

Guild Wars 2. I’m not really into grinding for hours or optimizing my characters, so I appreciate that the game can be played quite casually. That’s also true of ESO, but that one feels basically like a single player game to me, while GW2 feels much more social with a lot of player cooperation just arising naturally through its design. Also love the zone design, having a lot of exploration and things like jumping puzzles. Story is pretty decent as well.

Criminals will be required to work social services for the common good. High-risk criminals will also be put under constant surveillance either by automated systems or, in extreme cases, Human guards to stop them from reoffending.

Maybe look into being self-employed. There should be some opportunities there for a computer engineer. Working remotely for a company in a different area or even country might also be an option, depending on whether that’s legally possible in Cambodia.

Learning-wise, I’d say starting on PC makes much more sense. You’ll have a much easier time developing and debugging the game, as you can test right on the device you’re using to create the game. In terms of it being profitable, it’s very likely that your first game won’t be. I’d look at it as a learning experience first and foremost that will enable you to make profitable games in the future.

Riding my e-bike is still a physical workout, just one that takes me further than my regular bike. I can take bike paths or forest paths and don’t have to always use the roads. E-bikes are quiet.

Yes, it is. If they’re in a flat, probably flour moths. Your friend should check any containers with food, especially grains.

In theory, yes. Only problem is that we need a dev team willing to develop one. Mozilla won’t do it if it’s just for Europe apparently.

It depends. Names for people and locations get reused all the time, both in real life and in fiction and of course it’s fine to do so. At this point, it’s probably impossible to be 100% original all the time with the amount of books, games etc that are out there. However there are some names that are so iconic that people will immediately connect them with a certain work. For example I wouldn’t write a fantasy novel and name a city “Minas Tirith”, as everyone will just think of LOTR. But calling a city, say, “Dragonstone” is just fine IMO, even though it’s a place in ASOIAF (and probably more than a few older fantasy books).

This might vary between markets but at least here in Germany, their pricing is very competitive. You can currently get a base ID3 for 29,760€. There are very few if any similar sized EVs for that price. Software is okay, not the sleekest you can get for sure, but it does its job. They’re the second most successful EV brand after Tesla here. I assume if you’ve never thought of them as something you’d want to buy, you’ve also never driven one?

What makes you say that? I’ve driven (but not owned) an ID3 for the last 3 years and it’s pretty great. Only major criticism I have is that the controls are too heavily touch-based with a lack of physical buttons. But the actual driving is wonderful.

Die Bahn hat ja mehr als genug Probleme, aber die Bahnhöfe sind wie ich finde vollkommen in Ordnung. Ähnlich sauber bis sauberer als in anderen europäischen Ländern und besonders unsicher habe ich mich auch nie gefühlt. Die Zugangskontrollen die es in manchen anderen Ländern gibt habe ich als eher nervig empfunden. Vor allem wenn es dann so läuft wie z.b. in Großbritannien, wo man als Interrail-Nutzer nicht einfach sein Ticket scannen kann sondern es immer einem Mitarbeiter zeigen muss um durchgelassen zu werden. Das jetzt wieder bei uns einzuführen wäre meiner Meinung nach absolut rausgeschmissenes Geld das die Bahn an anderen Stellen bitter nötig hat.

No music, no images… two things that have defined Human culture for millennia. The Taliban must really love leading a miserable existence.

I think it’s exactly those stories that give people a false impression when they come here. It’s not that they are false, most of the time you’ll certainly find people who can speak decent English. A tourist probably won’t need any German, but when it comes to living here long-term, dealing with bureaucracy, finding a job or making friends, knowing German is pretty essential.

So is Irish, but the point was that English is an official and widely spoken language in both countries.

Time to learn a new language, unless you’re moving to Ireland or Malta I guess. Tons of people come to Germany and are shocked when not everyone speaks English.

Anyway, I think you’ll get better answers if you specify a country. The EU is quite diverse, so I don’t think there’s a ton of advice that’ll be true everywhere in the EU.

Trump dictatorship sure is a change in the status quo, but how exactly will it help marginalized groups?
