I would like to know what Modi said exactly to elicit such response. I know the guy is not of my liking already, but lately I am interested in knowing whether he is just playing as a relay for Putin or rather distancing himself from him.

I will go against most opinions and I would say give it a try.

My friends who are into the book quoted much more from the second and style-wise I can tell you this: I LOVED the first one. I HATED the second one.

So, since the book seems really to be about deception, war and religion (the last 2 I despise to see in movies because I find them boring as hell), I could suggest you watch it.

You mean Putin, the Poisoner of Underwear?

I don’t wish any such thing to the Russian people as a whole, against whom I have absolutely nothing. The thought of it as a possibility deeply saddens me.

That’s how we lost the possibility of a Metro 2033 film

He used Not Sure as a smokescreen since the beginning, the whole point is that he never really understood what was going on. I am quite sure that American presidents are approaching that level of idiocy.

This is what I love about Mike Judge’s work. It turns out to be always the best metaphor/reference/prophecy of the boring dystopia. Since 1999.

Israel controls the maritime space in front of and air space over Gaza, the anagraphical and fiscal systems and the access of goods and people.

Do we have /c/swoosh in here?

DuckDuckGo is surprisingly good. It is my go-to atm on all my computers. If it only had better maps…

I recommend this game to anyone who has only played AAA games as a gateway drug to indie games.

Just finished Full Void, a pixel graphics cinematic puzzle platformer in the style of Another World. Cool original soundtrack, nice style and animation, great atmosphere and world building despite no words.

2 hours long main story, cool indie project with great attention to detail. Well worth the money.

If you play it you will be surprised who it is dedicated to, as you can read at the end of the game.

Without the need to resort to blatant racist theories, my bet is still on tax arrangements.

My “politics” is because I don’t think that any politically relevant (especially for the rest of the world) decision in the US is taken in or by the appointed institutions. And recent events, including the news we are commenting on here, are confirmation of this.

I’ll let you onto a little secret about Europeans: we don’t don’t give half a shit about the US and their “politics”.

You may well argue that we have your bases in our territory, NATO and your social networks influencing our lives, but I see that as our internal problem of still having to grow a proper pair, rather than an interesting consequence of whatever medieval situation you’re brewing in there.

And you wish you were in a cyberpunk dystopia. You’re in a boring one.

I think this could have been the normal evolution of the social network under anyone else than Musk. I repeat, it has always been built this way, for broadcasting. And I am sorry to fire on the Red Cross, but Mastodon is just the same: the only reason it is somewhat better than what Twitter was is that it is novel and barely populated and therefore elicits what in Italy we call mountain path courtesy.

And a huge disruption of astronomical research.

I don’t really see a difference in Twitter pre- and post-Musk. It is literally built for this, for broadcasting with minimal discussion afterwards. I left Twitter a bit before Musk got it because I realized Reddit was better for discussing and obtaining informed opinions. And now I left Reddit.

You guessed it, I am not American.

Nor I have time to spend following the domestic politics of a country that was decadent when it was founded by terrorists (according to its own Constitution).

I am surprised still because this is 2023 and you are behaving literally medieval de facto instituting a new kind of feudalism gibing power to these people.
