  • It's weird, I absolutely adored Tunic, it's one of my favorite games of all time, yet Outer Wilds was just "alright" for me? Like IGN 7/10 good but nothing to write home about.

    Part of that was probably because I felt constant nausea due to being unaccustomed to playing 3D games with controller - the fact half of the game occured in space with two additional axis of rotation significantly worsened it.

  • Accordingly, universities in continental Europe usually translate "informatics" as computer science, or sometimes information and computer science, although technical universities may translate it as computer science & engineering.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Informatics

  • That's why informatics is by far the superior term. Computer science is such a boring terms anyways, you don't call maths "number science", biology "living beings science " or chemistry "atoms science" either.

  • While they can do so, that's a very effective way to permanently destroy relations between the EU and the US. The US will be unable to effectively project power onto both Europe and the Middle East once the military bases in Europe are closed down in the aftermath. It will be the US's biggest loss in soft power since its founding.

  • Note that just because Marx said something doesn't mean you should treat it as a gospel.

    Marx lived from the early 19th to the late 19th century and didn't witness WW1. Since then, the military has become almost infinitely more powerful compared to Marx's days, where armed workers stood an actual chance against the military. Nowadays though? Not even remotely. Shut off the internet and electicity in a region, ban the press from reporting, send in the military and wipe out any protest, regardless of how many arms there are. Just take a look at Chechnya and how well they've been doing after declaring independence.


    The US is an exploitative capitalist country despite having an awful amount of guns.

    Northern European countries are significantly less exploitative, while still capitalist, countries without nearly as many guns.

    The amount of arms in worker's hands and the severity of capitalism has no relation anymore. Hell, by having so many guns, the US can reasonably argue for ever greater police budgets without much backlash. You wouldn't want children to die in school shootings, would you, you monster?

  • You cannot ban cars without having a solid public transit network, obviously. Besides, in nearly all cases you'd take a child to a closer doctor anyways because visiting a doctor shouldn't require car ownership, ever.

  • A prison sentence doesn't make sense in these cases, since there is no risk of repeat offenses and therefore no rehabilitation required.

    Just give them a 4 digit large fine and maybe deport them, unless you have a non-functioning justice system focused on cruelty, then give them a significant prison sentence.

  • You withdraw cash at an ATM but the software has faulty code which causes your balance to remain the same after withdrawing any amount.

    You notice this and then empty the entire ATM this way, making $200,000. I'm sure once you explain to the jury that the ATM just gave you a bad contract, they will acquit you.

  • You will change the Democrat-Republican duopoly as soon as you convince everyone to stop participating in consumerism (beyond one's basic needs).

    Which is to say: never.

    The last time neither a Republican nor a Democrat was President was more than a century ago. Good luck changing the people's habits as well as the monumental support structures both parties have erected to prevent any third party from gaining traction, ranging from super PACs to literally the entire American news network, including social media.
