  Everyone knows that.

  But, at the very least we should be congratulatory on this - it’s bad that clans were contained to DLC in the first place and Paradox needed a good kick, but since they’ve been pliable we should give them a pavlovian pat on the head.

  If you leave no room for ‘rehabilitation’ there is no reason to try to do better.

  Instead of asking for Israel to be banned, we should be demanding that that be Palestine included (even if outside the EBU, special circumstances)

  I’d almost be willing to wager that if Palestine was added (and possibly even put alongside Israel) that Netanyahu will probably pull Israel out himself.

  Thanks for the heads up Bobandy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hmm this "unisex" bathroom seems biased...⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m a woman and will leave the seat up at work (not at home)

  We have unisex toilets and truck drivers use them - they regularly wee all over the toilet seats if left down :(

  Just a few more jpegs and they’ll have the money to finish it!

  I do remember them spending a lot of money on Star-Trek style doors for the their HQ and now they’re moving, so I guess that was money well spent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK about 15 bean soup.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I know I’ve had chickpeas and I’ve never even heard of garbanzo.

  Truth in England.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨RFK Jr. Blames violent video games for Mass Shootings.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess RWS can add a ‘Kennedy Mode’ to Postal2 Redux. (in reference to the previous lowest difficulty, Liebermode, named after Senator Joe Lieberman.)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK Coal plants hurt kids' brains, especially poor kids who are forced to live nearby⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  ICE vehicles are at best 30% efficient, Coal power is at best 45% efficient. Even with transmission and motor losses, that’s still pretty close to net even, but completely excludes the energy and environmental cost of refining crude into petroleum, where coal is burned largely as-is.

  So we’d still be better off moving to EVs even if it was all in a vacuum with 100% coal power and we weren’t already replacing coal with renewables.

  I think Japan also gets ‘Expat’ credentials too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Scientific unprogress...⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Making it easy was the mistake, the internet was great when knowing what tcp/ip actually is was a barrier to entry.

  Gatekeeping isn’t a dirty word.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sir?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In Australia, that’s always how it’s done.

  Portable breathalyzer doesn’t really mean anything, but if you blow over you’re down to the station to do it in the real machine and if you blow there, it’s off to hospital to get a blood test, the blood test is the evidence used in court.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to Build a Powerful Reverse Proxy Firewall for Blocking the Evil Web-Scraping Robot Hordes from Hell⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not to mention they tried running a disinformation campaign against OPNsense for a few years, which was resolved in court.

  Also they implemented a WireGuard module that after a review upstream on FreeBSD was found to be completely hocus.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mommy, Why is There a Server in the House?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  WHS wasn’t working then either.

  It was an awful piece of software, you were better off just pirating Windows Server 2003r2 Standard and using the software raid5 over the WHS flaky overlay system.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mommy, Why is There a Server in the House?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, but current MS Azure+buzzwerds actually works.

  WHS was as very, very bad layer on top of NTFS.

  No Australian pricing details

  Believe it or not, right to gaol.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Four wheels good, two wheels bad: why are there no exciting cycling games?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Road cycling is a rich persons sport, gaming is circuses for us poors.

  No one wants to play ‘tour de riche’

  A /decent/ Downhill game could be good (Descenders wasn’t it., super wide mariokart-esque tracks - give me some goat tracks that need berms on the corners)

  Four deaths.
