I don’t think you can generalize to the degree you are implying here.

There are significant differences between how we (as in humans) act outside the family and inside the family. Somebody may be toxic, have substance abuse issues, or display sociopathic traits outwardly but be a kind, loving and caring person towards their children. This discrepancy would of course create conflict, but parents not being perfect is also perfectly normal and happens in middle class families too.

I personally know a couple of people from fairly rich families. And while some of them definitely had toxic parents, some did not. Most of them are just people. In a lot of cases its just a case of ignorance. How they react to being confronted with their ignorance is IMHO more relevant for character judgement and that is also a trait instilled by their parents.

For what it’s worth, the absolutely worst parents I know are thoroughly middle class.

Yes. It was a Neonazi from Britz doing it. He primarily targeted foreign cars, vehicles of local left politicians (Die Linke and SPD candidates of Neukölln both had their cars burned). He also lit up a few expensive cars, but that might have been because he ran out of “legitimate” targets.

What is the use case you are looking for?

Is it for accessibility to read out text on a website? Recording voice lines for YouTube videos?

It’s almost like you could check out the linked campaign and answer that question with a couple of minutes reading.

The money goes to supporting pixelfed, loops and sup development, with the goal being financing full time development for the entire team.

Unfortunately, the only hardware component you can actually download is RAM. And increased hardware prices are going to be the primary cost factor.

I generally agree, but there are two addenda.

First: Even the worst should be burried with dignity, because their behaviour is not the standard by which we measure our actions. Nobody is so evil that they can take our will to be decent human beings. So we do the right thing (decent burrial) to spite evil.

Second: With dignity is not the same as “with reverence” or “with honor”. In many cultures criminals are denied certain parts of funeral rites (like processions, official or acknowledged mourning periods). This reinforces social norms to the living (don’t do the bad thing or you will be shunned by society) and can also prevent retraumatizing their victims. The most common form of this is not allowing to have their gravesite marked. This is done so that their family may have a place of grief (the unmarked grave) but to prevent the grave from becoming either a shrine to their followers or a target of defilement by the victims. A fairly well known example of the last part is Adolf Hitler who was properly buried in an unknown location and then a parking lot was put over the area with the possible grave sites.

I cant speak to CoD specifically, but being able to locate opponents, shots, activity etc by sound is a massive advantage in many multiplayer shooters. I can personally vouch for its relevance in CS, Apex Legends, Arma 2&3, The Finals, DayZ, and Battlefield.

The toolset they use to run their containerlike system wrapping the games is called “pressure vessel”.

No. He is bad and he should feel bad. He was sad because his evil plans didn’t work out the way he had hoped. He is alone because he abuses the people around him because he considers himself a superior being for whom others are just play things.

His backstory of abuse goes a way to explain why he is the way he is, but it does not excuse it.

What is the upside of allowing the government to kill citizens?

Kultur, Sport und Gemeinschaft extrem in der DDR gefördert wurden.

Nur konforme Kultur und Kunst wurde gefördert. Jedes Zeichen von Nonkonformität wurde hart gedeckelt. Wer Kunst benutzt hat um die Partei oder den Staat zu kritisieren ist dafür in den Knast gekommen und wurde das Ziel von Zersetzungsmaßnahmen durch die Staatssicherheit.

Und die Sportförderung kam natürlich auch mit politischen Zwängen und einem systematischen Dopingregime, für das der Staat bis heute Opfern (ehemaligen Athleten) Entschädigungen zahlt.

Gemeinschaftsförderung ist auch so ne Sache. Wer nicht bei den Pionieren mitgemacht hat, durfte halt nicht studieren. Unabhängige (also nichtstaatliche) Gewerkschaften zu Gründen war verboten. Und die Existenz der Stasi deren bekanntes Ziel es war, “asoziale Elemente” (Leute die über Spitzbart, Bauch und Brille gelacht haben) zu finden und zu entfernen und die dafür massenweise Spitzel in der Bevölkerung benutzten war sicherlich auch nicht förderlich für ein nachbarschaftlichen Vertrauensverhältnis.

Another reason to use Logitech mice: ease of repair. Apart from skates covering the screws on the underside, Logitech does not use glue to keep it’s mice together. And due to their popularity, replacement parts (including the battery btw) are widely available even for older models.

What I would like instead is a browser that treats tabs more like virtual machines that you can roll back, suspend to disk and resume. Little package of data that get frozen in time and are externally searchable.

Maybe look at ArchiveBox. IIRC it has pretty much everything you ask for including an import from your browser history and bookmarks.

I’m not going to tell you that you’re managing your information wrong. I would physically die if I had ever more than 20 tabs (my ADHD couldn’t handle it).

But I think you might be using the wrong tool. A browser (like Firefox) is not really designed as an information manager. It’s primary purpose is navigating and visualizing web pages. So when you talk about “a few megabytes of text and images” thats not what your browser sees. Your browser handles more than just the text and images. It also handles fetching and prefetching, a browser history for every tab, a JS context and much much more.

What you want is some kind of personalized archiving system that processes websites into machine processable (ie searchable) structures. Firefox is not that. Maybe data hoarder communities will have the answers you seek.

I don’t think that is an accurate reading of what he is expressing. Crate (his company) is a smallish indie studio that makes high quality games (in my opinion) and supports them long term with both paid DLCs and free updates.

He made that statement when talking about Embracer Group that was looking to buy Crate. When he told them “we are currently working on an RTS” they said “Why don’t you make something multi platform and a different genre instead?” (i.e. a cashgrab) to which his reply was “you can’t buy my company, fuck off”.

RTS are inherently limited to PC. RTS are not popular as eSports anymore. His company is making one not because they want a short term profit, but because he thinks they could make a great one for a niche target group that will stay loyal for a long time (e.g. their 2016 game Grim Dawn just got a massive free content update and a new story DLC in February this year).
