Fucking useless German politicians. The same politicians who imported these people now pretend to give a fuck. Every time something like this happens the interior diversity hire says "We will not tolerate this!". A couple of days later she's back to her far-left bullshit ways, enabling all of this in the first place. You know they're lying when their lips move.

I considered migrating my old CDs to more modern storage but it's all stuff I haven't touched in a decade and probably never will again. So it doesn't really matter if it still works or not. The CDs can continue to exist in their Schrödinger state .

Why? It's basically the Patreon model.

As long as you're subscribed you get the monthly release for free and you get a discount in their store where you can buy previous releases. Unlike with software or streaming subscriptions you don't lose access to the stuff you've unlocked if you end your membership.

Burned disks are trash for longevity. I've had many CD-Rs that developed literal physical holes in the data layer or where the data layer simply flaked off after a few years.

They probably have a whole gaggle of pink-haired UI and accessibility designers who have to justify their existence every now and then.

It's been back for a couple of days for me. Let's see if they've given up on the redesign or are just tweaking things before it comes back.

Dunno, a lot of people willing to vote for Trump are anti-Biden. They'll vote for anyone who's not Biden. Political ideology doesn't matter to these voters.

We've seen that in Germany. A right-leaning party rose rapidly in polls because people were unhappy with the socialist government. Suddenly a new socialist/communist "alternative" party sprung up and mainly stole votes from said right-leaning party.

Point is, even leftist candidates can steal protest voters from the right. Protest voters vote for anyone who's not the current thing, even if they only pretend to not be the current thing.

Yea, resin 3D printers have gotten really affordable and high-resolution in recent years and you can print much more than just Warhammer minis.

Suddenly it's okay for the media to talk about how they are paid protesters. Before it was just a "right-wing conspiracy theory". Imagine that.

They tailor-make laws to get Trump for sexual assault that never happened but they let this guy go.

To be fair, at least one of them is "all of the above".

TikTok is "dangerous" because it's a platform that they don't control.

There's currently a media campaign against TikTok here in Germany because leftists found out a right-leaning party is more successful at reaching younger audiences than all of the left combined.

A repeat of the Munich hostage crisis (i.e. Palestinians taking Israeli athletes hostage) might be in the cards given current events.

Maybe we'll get some entertainment if muslims riot again during the games.
