- Comment on Apple is placing warnings on EU apps that don’t use App Store payments 1 day ago:
No it wouldn’t need to be Apple.
If a payment processor won’t comply, you can ask for a chargeback at your bank, and if it keeps happening, the payment processor can be blocked from accepting EU payments at all.

If anything that sounds more Hungarian than German, with the lack of diphtongs and the “sz” at the end, but funny thing, Hungarian does the same thing as German with compound words, except it makes it even worse with turning prepositions into suffixes.
For example:
legösszetettebbszóhosszúságvilágrekorddöntéskényszerneurózistünetegyüttesmegnyilvánulásfejleszthetőségvizsgálat
meaning
Examination for the treatability of the manifestation of the syndrome of neurosis caused by the compulsion of breaking the world record of the most heavily compunded word.
Technically this isn’t correct, as you should put a hyphen in there somewhere between the two main parts to improve readability if it’s more than 6 syllables. Good luck finding the “two main parts” though. Maybe:
legösszetettebbszóhosszúságvilágrekorddöntéskényszer-neurózistünetegyüttesmegnyilvánulásfejleszthetőségvizsgálat
But you can also go crazy with suffixes, the often cited example is megszentségteleníthetetlenkedéseitekért, which is not at all a compound word, it means “for your acts of repeated demonstration of your beliefs that you are unable to be made unholy” (with a plural you).
And finally, you can just do an infinite loop to construct arbitrarily long words using suffixes, like this:
úszik - swims
úsztat - makes someone or something swim
úsztattat - makes sy/sg make sy/sg swim
úsztattattat - makes sy/sg make sy/sg make sy/sg swim
…
úsztattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattattat - makes sy/sg make sy/sg make sy/sg make sy/sg make sy/sg make sy/sg make sy/sg make sy/sg make sy/sg make sy/sg … make sy/sg make sy/sg make sy/sg swim - Comment on USDA Reverses Course, Commits to Restore Purged Climate Webpages in Response to Farmers’ Lawsuit 3 days ago:

I think Trump himself just likes to be in the spotlight and also evade prison.
As for his backers, they want the collapse of the US (and nation states in general) to found company town-esque technocratic city states.

I can almost see the grey face of the marketing intern shuffling out of another pointless meeting to write this, debating whether their health insurance would cover jumping out of the building window.

Come to think of it, what happens if supply lines break down and fuel stops being delivered? I could imagine the mother of all famines, as food won’t make it into the (food) desert and people can’t come out.

Well the difference is that all the people who are not wage slaves right now would be, and the current wage slaves would basically be relegated to serfdom.

- Comment on The US is Collapsing Like the USSR – So What Comes Next 2 weeks ago:
Not technically. If Trump succeeds in turning the US into Russia, most countries would be fine, especially if they or their close allies were nuclear armed.
US citizens would become effectively slaves though.

The point is that they shipped an update that was mostly pointless, or even completely pointless on PC, that basically blocked the release of a huge scale very anticipated mod days before the release date.
The argument is that they like profiting off their mod creators, but they try to squeeze the community for more money every time they can, like with the paid mods nonsense, and also don’t give a shit about them.
