"A group of four of us around level 80"

Level 50 was the original maximum. You've completed the game. Presumably by now you've unlocked everything, of course it's easier. Try starting from level 1 again and see how you feel.

As a modern Brit, this list is just fucking weird. It's only a very specific type of middle class English that would relate to this.

Signal only delivers a promise that their E2EE will be enough to make the information govts get useless.

Signal do more than just a promise. Their encryption techniques are available to see. You can confirm if it's enough protection for you or not. Telegram are the ones making a promise. I'm not saying they've broken their promise (as evidenced by the arrest).

But it is just a promise when Telegram still has the ability to see messages. Signal can't see messages and therefore don't have to rely on a promise that can be broken (willingly or not). They instead rely on encryption, which appears to be far stronger than any promise could be.

For all we know, this is performative and the French government already has access to Telegram's servers and can see everything. If they have access to Signal's, oh well, they can't see shit.

Which part of the US 🇺🇸 is Austria 🇦🇹 in?

What a strange story. First, they call the middle of Lidl infamous, not famous. What's infamous about it?

Second, they do a mass product recall because of one complaint? They claim the product has had stringent testing and has sold for years in Europe without issue, but they recall it due to one complaint?

If the complaint is legitimate, then this is a good thing, but I just can't wrap my head around their claim of stringent testing and crumbling at the merest mention of an issue. I also don't understand what the issue with the igloos really is, they appear no less dangerous than a fence or hedge

The problem with FPTP is that you can't just vote based on policies.

You also have to consider who is most likely to win the seat and whether you have to vote AGAINST who you don't want rather than FOR who you do want.

Nothing to do with austerity, Brexit, or Liz Truss...

The party also said it would change the law to make gender recognition a reserved matter which only the UK government could legislate on, a reaction to the row over the Scottish gender recognition bill, which was blocked by Westminster.

"Just in case those uppity Scots try to make a safe haven in our fascist dystopia."

They're making a joke on the word high, there's really not much else to read into it. It's a joke. Wave their flags high can mean holding them high up or waving their flags while under the influence.

"to wave their flags of pride high"
