The moment who is waiting for exactly?
The moment who is waiting for exactly?
He’s not actually dead.
The election is almost guaranteed to happen though, all they’re protesting over is the timing.
Netanyahu is claiming he wants to wait till the war is over. The protestors are saying that he’s just using that to keep himself out of jail.
The longest Netanyahu can draw this struggle out is October 2026. Another election is guaranteed, Netanyahu isn’t going to suddenly make himself dictator with his tiny popularity.
I mean it is though, (unless you count Iraq and Turkey), that’s why this protest against the war and for an election is even allowed to happen.
Oh definitely, I’m not blaming Dolly, just saying that as one of the largest draws in the area, (along with the National Park) that she basically is the local economy, which does have its negatives along with its positives.
The area became a tourist destination long before her too. The tourism industry really started after F.D.R. came to town and established the national park.
I’ve lived within driving distance of it almost my entire life.
It’s in her hometown and brings in quite a bit of money for the rural area, however the tourism has changed the town/towns massively, almost like the redneck/hillbilly version of gentrification.
For example, in that county, there’s 10 times more hotels, cabins, Air B&B’s, for tourists, than their are houses on the market and apartments to rent for locals (I actually have written a few college essays about this). Which has effectively priced out most long-term generational residents, to the point where almost 50% of the county’s labor force comes from outside the county and can’t afford to live inside it.
Yes, but it comes from a domesticated genetic line. Imagine if a Pug or Chihuahua went feral. It wouldn’t exactly be the same as the original wolf-like starting point.
It’s the same with horses. After generations of being bred by humans for specific traits, they’re very different than the original wild population. They’re probably also easier to re-domesticate than wild horses.
Why would it not follow that Steam using the same percentage - with lower costs and none of the physical-based risk - is simply greed?
Most of the retailers mentioned in that article were also digital only and had the exact same or less risk. Steam certainly does a lot to try and get people’s money, but they aren’t just greedily fucking over Devs for that 30%, that is in fact industry standard.
I also have no doubt that Epic will enshitify itself and raise its rate closer to 30% after growing.
Can vouch for Viture being much more open source friendly, there’s a redditor making a plugin for the steamdeck to make it work far better with the Viture’s, and Viture has apparently given them access to some things that Xreal has refused.
Their openness is what won me over for them over other AR glasses. Not only are the willing to help what’s effectively a competing software developer, it’s also incredibly helpful when the product is so niche, don’t have to worry about a company going out of business and your device suddenly becoming a paper weight.
There’s this thing called social democracy,
and almost every nation in the world has a social democratic party. The left wing of these social democratic parties tend to be full on democratic socialists.
There’s a good chance that the welfare system in whatever country you live in was built by these social democratic parties and influenced by its left wing of democratic socialists.
Even in the U.S. FDR’s Liberalism has been called “bootleg social democracy” by some historians, and his policies were influenced (though often more as concessions than willing adoption) of the more socialist leaning unions of his time. Even today, the progressive wing of the Democratic Party could be described as social democratic, with its leftmost members (Bernie Sanders and AOC) being democratic socialists.
Idk man democratic socialists seem to have been succeeding in doing it almost globally for a century now.
Look at the left of any social democratic party and you’re bound to find some.
But you see that small socialist elite proclaims it’s doing it for the working class, therefore it’s okay now.
Don’t look at those prisons full of attempted trade unionists pls.
It’s called second campism, and it’s been happening for a long time, it just used to make more sense when it could actually seem like there was two hegemonic camps during the cold war (still an oversimplistic view).
Now they just support any regime that’s anti-US/the original capitalist camp because they have no hegemonic camp of their own to support, just a broad smattering of authoritarian regimes with completely different ideologies.
It’s important to note this was a minority of congressional democrats, only about a quarter, still a quarter of the party too much.
Yeah? Then give me evidence of a large campaign by the U.S government to force companies to change media narrative in the past 2 decades.
Every time I’ve seen anything even close, the media companies have screamed bloody murder.
Did any other congresspeople do that? I’m genuinely surprised if not, few things really invoked how that moment felt better than the pictures I saw of him solemnly cleaning the capitol floors.
In the US, the government is just a figurehead for the wealthy elite.
Odd that the country supposedly being ran by a figurehead for wealthy elites is infinitely better to live in for working class people, than the supposedly completely working class inspired “socialist” country.
You never found it weird that the Chinese government cracks down harder on independent trade unionists than actual capitalists do here?
The massive difference is that even if that’s true, it’d be on the corporations deciding to change narrative independently, not being forced to by the government.
Outlets like the Guardian are certainly willing to piss off the U.S. government, they were literally one of the publishers of the Snowden files.
I’m pretty sure this is happening in the US because of those pages no longer being profitable to run.
There’s a big difference between that and losing chunks of the internet because of rampant censorship, something we aren’t experiencing in the West/US.
Yeah the recoil is much weaker on those and there’s no muzzle flash, and certain cinematic shots just can’t be done with them like they could with an actual gun.
