  • That really sucks. I guess I can see why Valve is not so permissive when it comes to one of their major cash cows. But it seems like they handled this really poorly by initially signalling permission for the project and then deciding otherwise at the last minute and after years of work.

  • Yeah, but I don't think the nutters make up the full quarter of the voting population currently willing to vote for them. Lots of them are protest voters who are just vaguely "against". Besides, I don't think it'd be the deportations making some people reconsider, but the sheer economic stupidity of the Trump government as well as their attitude towards Europe. I fully expect Americans to be far poorer and more miserable in 2-3 years and that might do wonders to dispel the myth that the far-right could "fix the economy".

  • From my European perspective:

    • Countries are finally starting to push for independence from the US when it comes to defence etc
    • The UK and Canada moving closer to the EU, increasing political and economic cooperation
    • Brain drain from the US leading to American academics moving to Europe, bolstering our economy and research
    • Hopefully seeing how fucked up the US is will eventually lead some people to reconsider voting for the far-right in Europe
  • Could you give us an example of such a location please?

    Russia, which is blocked from other international payment systems. Or any other authoritarian country where you might not necessarily want the government to know where you donate your money to.

    Whataboutism fallacy.

    We're still throwing around fallacies like it's 2010? Okay, I cast fallacy fallacy!

    When talking about whether a donation button should have a specific payment option, it's relevant if the alternatives it offers are better or worse. Otherwise, the argument might as well be to not have a donation option at all.

  • Depending on where users are located, it might be the only realistic option they have if they want to donate. Besides, traditional payment systems like PayPal, MasterCard, Visa etc are all problematic in their own right.

  • I don't really get the need for a term like this. People are attracted or not attracted to all kinds of aspects of other people, so do we also need hyper-specific terms based on hair color, ethnicity, body size etc as well?

  • I live in an old house, so sometimes mice find their way in. Never really a huge problem though. I catch them with live traps and let them out a few km away. Don't think I've had any in the last couple months.

  • Yeah, this seems like an attempt to create a token leftist community to prove that they're not right-wing (despite all active political communities on there being just that). I find it quite funny that they're still looking for an actual leftist to run the community... Good luck with that!
