  • "I don't want Politics in my Gaming!"

    Jump

  • The Irony, is that while at least in my local community, the young generation includes a lot of openly neurodivergent gay/enbi players, I feel like that the reason why the theme is so sensitive for older player is that many of the older player never thought the time to question about-it, you know, the 50 year old "straight" conventionally attractive long term single who always play the other gender, may not just be too busy to date

  • "I don't want Politics in my Gaming!"

    Jump

  • Actually it's hard to keep politic out of RPG.

    In game, politic is what makes the game more than just killing random person you know the Princess who want to escape a political marriage, the advisor looking to become the lord, the church and and the merchant guild trying to gain influence ? All of that is politics. and all of that is what makes your campaign fun.

    In real-life, like any other social activity especially if you get wider than a closed circle, politics get involved, your club need to talk with the mayor to get a slot in the municipal culture centre or rent a room in a school. Moreover, RPG tend to have a bad reputation and be not correct according to conservative which make it even more political than tons of other RPG, if you let church and right-winger tell you which hobby are acceptable you won't be able to play RPG

    is it embarrassing to graduate college at 24?

    Jump

  • Isn't it pretty standard ? Finish high school at 18 + 5 years to get a master is already 23, so 24 would be a year late, that's absolutely fine. Let's say you retook a year to get better ranking, then spend a year as an exchange student abroad but failed due to language issue, it's already graduating at 25. Let alone if you work aside the university which can mean you fail each year once.

  • Would you play a slow game today?

    Jump

  • Sometimes, I want to retry Stellar Crisis, at least for it's historical value But feel like the era of small pb(e)m and similar is over.

    Still consider trying the de profundis rpg, but it's more a weird object on my gameshelves than an actual game

  • France: working with allies on plan should US make move on Greenland

    Jump

  • The problem is that, it's bringing war in our own soil from day-1. Sure it's easy to launch a few missile at an US base a few minutes before having infantry taking them over, but during that time your fighting on your own soil.

    Do you think people will live to the year 2100?

    Jump

  • Kids born today will be 75 in 2100, which at the current state of things will be too young to retire.

    Even if there is a major catastrophic, people in the Roman or medieval era made it to 80, it was less common than today, but wasn't unheard of either

  • When your daddy breaks the law it's "complex"

    Jump

  • Isn't the legal classification is complex some diplomatic version of you fucked up, but we're ready to believe your lawyer?

    Adding an acceptability benchmark to it, feel like preety critical considering the strong tie between US and Germany.

  • China's BYD set to overtake Tesla as world's top EV seller

    Jump

  • set to I thought it was done in 2025.

    They have a very agressive marketing strategy, competitive (subsidised?) price, and an offer including car for people who aren't fucking rich.

    Not that they're nicer than American, but in the end when people need to carry their family, price loins the game

    Jump

  • Do billionaires have most of their income taxed as ordinary income or capital gains?

    Jump

  • Many actually don’t, they don’t convert (much) the capital to money, so they avoid capital gain-tax (which tends to have exception for business owner and long term holder), often they use company asset (like an average worker gets a phone, a laptop and sometimes a car, but they get a boat, a jet, and a nice house on the company budget), borrow money against stock, and actually don’t need that much of their actual money (remember that a billion is huge we don’t talk about getting a nice house, and a private jet, but multiple airliner, and a brand-new top notch hospital in the centre of an expensive city, including all worker wage for a while).

    This is why so many people support a net worth tax like if you pay less than 2% of your net worth in regular tax, then you get an extra tax to reach these 2%

  • Well it's that time of the year where nobody works. Like offices are empty from mid December to January

  • Where does the revenue gathered from taxes go and what is national debt?

    Jump

  • In democracy, citizen decide how the tax money is spent by voting, usually it's an indirect vote : you elect people to vote the budget, which makes sense considering the difficulty on the tax. But typically, left wing will put more money in education, healthcare, and rehabilitation programs while right wing will put money in police, militaires and supp rt outsourcing essential services to private corporations. Stuff can be complex as you need to pay pensions, state worker, fulfill international commitment (EU budget, NATO budget) and maintain all the existing infrastructures, and only then you can invest/re-allocate budget (which can trigger an outrage, cutting welfare expense or closing a hospital can have dramatic consequences for citizen)

    If there isn't enough money se government can borrow money, typically they don't go the bank but say they need X billions for Y years and find investor ready to lend them this money (it tends to be quite safe, do you foresee US or Germany not paying their debt in 5 or 10 years?) alternative is to print money (aka inflation) or raise taxes. For structural investment that will bring monee, it makes sense to pay them over 10 years with the extra tax yield thanks to the new highway/university/dam. However, it also means that instead of "taxing the rich" you borr w their money and give them back, while us commoner do n't directly see our tax money ney back

  • How come laptops or pc's don't have a "webcam" facing both ways instead of just the user?

    Jump

  • A 30€USB webcam can do it, or simply turning around the laptop. Moreover, corporate have nice video conferencing room often with multiple camera, so you can select what you want to show. Finally, when I want to show a prototype to management, I rather invite them to the lab, or take the time to edit a video (even a smartphone camera one) for people in remote. Avoids the pitfalls of bringing something to a meeting room and starting it on the fly

  • Do you have the ability to travel regularly?

  • ability to take time away from work without pay
