Psychological torture is still torture

That's what you do if you actually want info. Torture is just for the sadism, it isn't effective.

The same as NAFO: shilling for the MIC

Do the programs you develop run on wine? It could be an option while developing, but either way you'll have to QA it on windows at some point.

Why would they arrest themselves or their friends?

Oh, they are building something

The context will be more telling of if it's actually rude or not. There's a lot of chat software nowadays where you can "react" to a message with a thumbs up and people use it to acknowledge what was said.

Over time they realised that, while holiday windows or whatever have high sales, if there's a better or more popular game coming out then, yours will just be forgotten.

That said, most "industry specialists" are just glorified influencers, so take it with a grain of salt

Moving to my own house. Still need to get some work done over there but we should be there by the end of this month.

Actually the plan is to peacefully reunite, but the US would never allow that

The censorship surrounding taiwan is super lame. You can't even ask about stuff that happened 50+ years ago. Even if you ask about something else, if somehow the answer includes the world Taiwan, it deletes it.

Removing sinophobia =/= censorship.

China does good thing Average lemmitor: this is bad actually

A few years from now people will have nostalgia about these early fediverse days and the weird and lame stuff like "the fediverse chick"

It's not really about changing it for cold hard power, but changing how their soft power will be projected. I've seen some theories that the rethoric is going to change from being about freedom of expression and LGBT rights and similar to ideas about traditional family values or something, and I think it's very plausible.

The Us already does this. This is only news if you think Biden was any different.

This isn't fundamentally changing anything. It's about using different tools for the same goal.

Yes, it's one of the US's propaganda presses

My wife did the same as you. Ten years later her wisdom teeth, in the process of trying to get out, broke one of her other teeth so she had to not only remove them but restore her once healthy tooth. Much more expensive (and painful) this way.

A draft is political suicide, nothing would get him off the white house faster. There's a reason the wars against China and Russia have people from other countries slated to die.
