And hope the EU will oppose it.

There are three battles wise men know not to fight:

  • A land war in Asia
  • The Finns in winter
  • Swedish Unions

"The European Commission went on to point out that Safari's functionality and underlying technologies are near-identical across platforms. The Commission even highlights Apple's own marketing materials for its Continuity feature, which appear to contradict the company's claims, touting the tag line "Same Safari. Different device." As a result, the Commission rejected Apple's claim and insists that "Safari qualifies as a single web browser, irrespective of the device through which that service is accessed.""

Governments and stately instances so rarely have a proper grasp of technology. This is beautiful.

Not at all surprised.

This bit got me: Evidently, all of Epic Games' business had been "heavily funded by Fortnite" in the last six years, and different parts of the company became "disconnected" from their revenue streams.

...Did you not see this coming? Have you really not had a plan for when Fortnite started to lose momentum? I get that having a product blow up will leaf to a period of manic spending because your cash flow suddenly feels infinite, but come on. You're not a small player in this, Epic. You've been around since the 90s. You know better than to mindlessly ride the wave of a success.

Of course the Fortnite money was going to run out. That's why you invested so heavily in UE5, right?.. Right?

They're not worried about threats to the nuclear family and abortion, they're just trying to make people who consider themselves nuclear families (potential voters) think that Democrats are the ones who are threatening them, so that they will be more likely to vote for the Republicans.

Did you not read the article?

Tencent own preference stock. They could sell their stock, which could potentially harm the company, but they hold no voting rights and carry no decision making power.

I am not a fan of China, nor Tencent, but spewing bile without understanding the context does NOT help this discourse.

Not to be a dick, because I agree, but this doesn't really answer the question.

My family and I took the train from Copenhagen, Denmark to Bologna, Italy and back again this summer.

By and large it was a good experience. Taking the train through the alps is something I'll never forget.

To my great amazement, the trains in Italy ran smoother than the trains in Germany.

On our return trip, we zipped from Bologna to Milano and from there to Frankfurt in just under nine hours. Smooth sailing. The Frecciarossa was by far the nicest train I've ever been on.

Frankfurt to Copenhagen, a noticeably shorter distance, ended up taking fifteen hours. Our 7:14 train out of Frankfurt Central got moved to another station a mere fifteen minutes prior to departure. From there, everything devolved into a mess of missed trains and lack of communication. I think we ended up switching trains five or six times.

Deutsche Bahn is a shadow of its former self, and it makes me profoundly sad that a nation globally known for precision and efficiency has such terrible train service.

I'm curious as to how quickly BG3 rule changes will start making their way into tabletop house rules and 3rd party supplements.

My guess is pretty quickly, if my own group is any worthwhile measurement.

Or they're switching packaging, and one is selling less / more than the others so is from the older / new packaging.

For all those replying with "well yes, we already knew this".

Yes, but now you have the numbers to back up the conclusions you've already drawn.

Of course food produced from plants will be environmentally better than those made from animals, but now, next time you see someone actually doubting that, you can rebuff them with numbers and science.
