A second loss should be a death knell of the current Republican party. He won't transition any of his power to Vance or any other Republicans. He could die and we still would see 10% of the Americans to vote for him in 2028 because his death was just media propaganda as far as they are concerned.

We all have happiness, it's just hard to see it past all the other stuff we got going on in our heads.

Every security feature ever made has basically started by absolutely dumping on S3 recovery. S3 recovery requires every device in the computer to give you a complete understanding of how to bring it up cold without engaging the boot flow. Sometimes devices don't do this because they are lazy, other times they don't do this for security reasons.

If you do it that way you are importing a good.

The end of this would not be that Steam relenting enables folks to start using foreign currency to get cheap games on a publicly traded space.

What will happen if that goes through is a swift increase in taxation of export of digital goods. You'd have countries fighting tariff wars over video games.

The idea that you can use foreign safe spots to buy and sell goods at a cheaper cost is something that only rich people get to do. As soon as it becomes broadly available to the general populace the governments crack down on it quickly.

Discrimination only applies if the two parties are similar. In this case the location makes these parties dissimilar due to the inability to just go from one place to the other legally. Brazil gross national income is 1/3rd the US. It makes sense to price things at 1/3rd the US price.

Steam taking 30% is a better deal than any other form of media gets by a mile. It's crazy folks complain when it is so easy to self distribute a video game, people have been doing it for years and years. Steam doesn't even require you to sign up for exclusivity like basically every other distribution/marketing service does for all media including other video game services.

Yea but moving out of country doesn't normally come with you also getting to work less hours for more pay. Leaving Amazon for a competitive offer does.

At the end of the day the question is do you want results or do you want butts in seats. If you run a factory it's fair to want butts in seats. If you run a creative endevor you should want results.

45 million monthly listeners on Spotify. That is 10 million more than The Beatles right now. 60th overall on the top list of plays just above Michael Jackson. Half the amount of TSwift

Remaster doesn't change the original art or animation. Sometimes it is a rerender of original source files. Sometimes it is a treatment of the existing master files.

Unwrap them and open it and then put them all back so they look used. Write on the box in sharpie "Backups 1/127". Delete the critical production system at your work. When someone asks where the backups are, hand them these.

For the US the pretty well known policy bangers are The New Deal and The Interstate Highway System both which are not just socialism but Federal level socialism.

All state run armed forces are by definition socialist in nature. Mercenary armed forces have been used many times to great effect but the backbone of most armed conflicts are the most socialist structure you could create.

Every large modern religion (abrahamic, hindu, buddhist) is socialist in nature and got to the level they are now due to socialist policy.
