Dolphins are apparently better at detecting smaller things that are difficult to pick up with sonar like divers, so they are utilized as early warning systems.

Can cast fairly well from the phone app or even the browser. Chrome cast is funky though.

Took us forever and is still contested now and again, but we managed to force the sales process yo include product managers or owners. Without an estimate from them, which is created in coordination with the engineers and developers, no offer is being made anymore. Certain sales people are butthurt, because the estimated costs are often too high for our "price sensitive clients" as in: they don't know how to sell our products on added value rather than on lower cost.

Great! Then they won't mind if more sanctions are added.

No one needs to buy a rival or steal their tech anymore. Just get them to launch on the stock exchanges and then destroy them with your wallstreet buddies right there with some good old short and distort and cellar boxing, etc.

If anyone thinks that Russia does not have plans to invade Europe at large, they are sorely mistaken. I bet Ukrainians do find such plans fairly often.

Question is when they will attempt to act on them. I agree, it would be fairly insane to open a second front. Then again, I thought it was fairly insane to open the first one.

I am well aware and you are right. But it is a sign that hope isn't entirely lost just yet. A lot of modern right wing nutjobs are as stupid as they are racist. So their movements might lose important figures to law enforcement before they gain that unstoppable mass.

Then again, looking at the Netherlands and almost any country around us, might be closer than we think and time might already be up.

I am very glad that these raids against these fascist assholes are happening.

With how everything is moving to the right and far right, AfD at all time highs, cases against right wing assholes being ignored, dropped or never even taken, police and military being undermined and having plenty of these assholes in their own ranks, it is good to see action being taken.

Their thoughts and beliefs aren't fringe anymore. They've made it well and truly into the middle of society in all German speaking countries. It went so far that I had to keep copies of the instructions on how to deal with these idiots, on my work PC because I have heard this kind of rethoric from our CEO.

It's insanity. I hate that conspiracy beliefs have become perfectly acceptable to such a large part of societies everywhere.

I really don't agree with: get stronger must also have world get more difficult. This is how you get scaling difficulty, where you never feel like you're going anywhere, because every upgrade is made pointless by enemies just becoming more dangerous in turn.

Bullethell rogue likes like vampire survivor are getting it pretty right in my opinion. Just have the chance to get ridiculously powerful, but take a bunch of tries. Then add in Hades way of not ending the story with your death and failure, the nemesis system which is sadly patented and you'd have a fairly ideal game where some things will inevitably kill you, but you will get better and the small stuff will only get you still, if you are not paying attention.

Obsidian is very solid and has a huge addon eco system to change it most ways you might thino of.
