I was born in the GDR and still have a few things. Like my old vaccine passport with the red cover and the state emblem, an electric drill that I still use, and some smaller tools, but you can find those easily on any flea market. The vaccine pass is always a fun thing for the doctors when I go get my flu shot.

You mean there's a version of Pepe that isn't like that?

Civ 6 was the one that finally got me, and I actually found that easier to get into than 1 and 2, which I had tried before. I did go back from 6 to play earlier titles and also liked 2, 4, and 5, but I keep coming back to 6. Unfortunately, I could not get into 7. I really tried, but I just wasn't having fun somehow.

Edit: If you like the older titles better, maybe try FreeCiv, which is similar to 2, or UnCiv, which is similar to 5.

Ha, this is basically me. Still wouldn't recommend rolling release to newbies, but my Linux knowledge is basic at best, and I've still used Arch for 8 years without many issues.

Common mistake, but they're actually the same person, just two different stage names.

My Anxiety Goes AAAAAAAAA!

You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

Reminds me of the mandatory classes on Marxism-Leninism that my parents had to take at university in the GDR.

I mean it's called Windows 11, duh!

I don't even think many people will disagree with that. The appealing thing about Star Trek was always the utopia, the idealism, the philosophical questions, and (in some cases) the sciency details. Most attempts to make Star Trek into some kind of uber-galactic-struggle-between-alien-races or quest-to-avoid-the-destruction-of-the-universe that were the focus of many later sci-fi shows ended up making it worse.

As fully fledged sci-fi universes that were explicitly written with these "big" stories in mind, Mass Effect or The Expanse are clearly ahead.

Geldbeträge wie beim Sozialleistungsbetrug finde ich immer so abstrakt und schlecht vorstellbar. Kann mir das jemand mal in Maskenaffären oder Mautskandale umrechnen?
