It's quite cruel of that compiler not being happy until you're exhausted.

A type of bondage suit

Disco Elysium for me. Too many open directions. Too much player agency. I had no idea where I should go.

The title isn't very good. The Bundesamt für Verfassungsschutz (BfV, Office for the Protection of the Constitution) found the party AfD to be "proven right-wing extremist", not the far right in general. The BfV doesn't look at parts of the political spectrum, they look at specific organisations.

Other parts of the far right are evaluated separately. The party NPD was almost banned before (only didn't happen because the court ultimately found they were too small to be a danger to the constitution). "Der III Weg" and "Identitäre Bewegung" are evaluated separately. "Die Rechte" was evaluated separately but recently disbanded.

This sort of precision is important, because it shows that there is an orderly process in defence of democracy happening, and not just a random repression of viewpoints as Rubio would have you believe.

Yeah no wonder. The administration he's part of is behaving unconstitutionally, so it's only logical he would condemn the Office for the Protection of the Constitution in other countries for doing its job. Can't have that if you want to erode the democratic basic order.

Your title is borked. Maybe edit that

Yes same here. I did watch a bit of someone else playing the one with the two Mexican brothers running away, but never really had the motivation to play it myself. I guess I just found time power to be much more interesting.

Oh yeah, and wasn't there a Vampire who became crime scene photographer but had a vial of blood in his chest pocket. Just in case the flash would kill him, the vial would break when his clothing drops and blood would instantly drip onto his ashes and revive him. (Could be the same vampire, not sure)

Or they could just have been infected. Especially the ones on Windows 8, which has been EoL for over a year.

Hey OP, regarding Minecraft: It's a Java program that uses OpenGL for rendering. Therefore it's not a Windows game, but inherently cross platform. Here's the official .deb package https://launcher.mojang.com/download/Minecraft.deb

the school’s IT

I wonder if that even exists. A mix of Windows 8 (EoL) and 10 (almost EoL) running on Haswells with students freely installing Roblox... all gives an unmaintained vibe.

Agreed, I played it the first time when I was 26, and I'm a straight Swiss and German man. Freaking love playing as Max. I played it two more times after that, and also the Chloe focused prequel.

Oh I think I know a good one! Haven, and it's currently 60% off. You play as a couple who escaped a controlling society to a foreign planet. (Three gender combinations can be chosen for the couple)

There is a combat element, and I don't think you can avoid it, but what you do is essentially clean the corruption off the local wildlife, instead of killing. Don't know if that works for you, but it's worth giving it a look I think.

at least constantly struggling for recognition, and are exploited as night shift workers in the emerging industry.

This reminds me a bit of Reg Shoe, leading dead rights activist in Ankh-Morpork.
Of course the Discworld is more funny, less grimdark, compared to your ideas.

It's like people still don't know about Schrems II or the Cloud Act.

Or they somehow seriously think that the EU-US Data Privacy Framework resolves the issues that killed the EU–US Privacy Shield?

In my org email went to shit after they outsourced it and lost the institutional knowledge. Now we suddenly have random things happen, like a second layer of quarantine appearing, and nobody can explain it. Any support request is copy pasted forward and backward to the outsourcing provider. If the outsourcing provider's response makes no sense it's forwarded to you internally none the less, and without comment.

My colleagues tell me that back in the nineties we were running an X.400 email gateway in this very company before it was clear that Internet email would be the one to win the protocol wars. We were at the forefront of email developments then.

And we're still a god damn tech company. We're a registry (not registrar), network provider, security services provider, cloud provider, etc. But email is now apparently too hard for us, it's a sad state of affairs.

I like how their release announcements always kind of read like press releases. Even when it's just the third maintenance release for some normal release train.

Yes, then you only pay tariff for the powder, for the big jar, and the transpacific shipping of the big jar. That's what I meant by "as far as it was packaged in China".

I hope these CEO's get their reckoning some way some day.

They seem to think it's all just business and cruelly wielding power is no issue, but I think they overestimate how isolated they are.

I feel like it's a CEO's job to care about all aspects of the company he is supposed to lead.
