Honestly, I'm amazed by the hatedom for Starfield. It's ... a Bethesda game (and it's actually better at being a Bethesda game than Fo4). I'm not sure what people seem to have expected?

Make your own instance then. As long as you're using a service someone else provides for you (free of charge at that), you have to play by their rules.

That's even worse though. Plenty of games (e.g. Stellaris and RimWorld) are also available on platforms like GOG or, ugh, Epic. But if you want to use mods and you bought the game on any platform other than Steam it's fuck you.

It's probably still going to take some projects with it. If you've sunk hundreds or even thousands of manhours into a project you can't just... do it again, or at least not always. Especially not if you've invested money as well as time, which is probably the case for most indie projects that aren't literal one-person shows.

Sie ist gegen AmeriKKKa und mag Daddy Vladdy und Xi Jinpooh weil die auch gegen AmeriKKKa sind und deshalb ja einfach gut sein müssen.

Das ist unironisch in etwa das Weltbild der Wagenknecht-Linken.

And yet somehow a mandate worked for seatbelts. The people who politicised basic safety measures between then and now have blood on their hands.

Correct, all diminutives are neuter in German. In this instance the base word is die Magd (historically the maiden, nowadays the maid), which is grammatically female.

31, Germany, I can't drive at all. City kid.

I'd assume that fucking it up is the goal. Some people are just irredeemable sociopaths who get satisfaction out of ruining other people's days.

Prinzipiell eine gute Idee, aber der CDU traue ich nicht mit der Umsetzung. Mehr bezahlbarer Wohnraum wird bitter benötigt, auch wenn die NIMBYs was dagegen haben. Nur wird's mit der CDU halt kein bezahlbarer Wohnraum werden.

Not yet. It's the inevitable outcome of tolerating Nazis on your platform but it takes time, especially with a userbase as large as Twitter's.

Which just highlights how exploitative the whole endeavour is. Rich Westerners hire poor locals to risk their lives for no good reason beyond clout. These aren't scientific expeditions, there's no actual value in them.
