I feel like the UK is lagging behind and we will see a rubber banding effect. After a decade of cons we will see a weak centrist labour party that will try to right the wrongs of the previous government while also taking all the blame for it. Then come next election cycle, because they were too pussyfoot to change FPTP, a stronger than ever right wing party will undo anything.

Just need a good hacked drone to fly into Putin's limo.

Most living in Bosnia along the Croatian border in the south-west are already ethnic Croatians, and they cross the border unimpeded to Croatia for all its benefits. Those that are not ethnic Croatians are likely ethnic Bosnian there, who cross as unimpeded as well, except they likely give less shit about it because they are just visiting their relatives or enjoying their EUR-bought or built homes during the summer but then go back to Germany to work for the rest of the year.

I'm not sure about that. But most restaurants downtown were semi-open, with some seating indoors, some outdoors along the streets. There doesn't seem to be a law against smoking at the table outdoors, and the smoke just goes everywhere. If it's not the people at the table, it's the passersby or the staff on their break. Really bad experience in multiple places.

I don't understand controllers. I can never get to use them properly. I grew up playing on computers all my life. My brain simply can't grasp them and I always forget where all the buttons are.

When you went up the weird tech tree, barely getting by, just to counter your opponent perfectly late-game.

The owner of Doritos, PepsiCo, bought SodaStream for $3.2bn and owns 50% of Sabra both of which had taken advantage of the Israeli occupation of Palestine.

Junk shit anyway.

Und für alles andere gibt's Mastercard?

When I've visited Lisbon last year, within five days we've eaten lunch or dinner at least once per day at McDonald's. Why? It was early May and it was one of the only places accommodating to our accessibility needs in an air conditioned environment, free of cigarette smoke. Because that's what you need when you have two children and a stroller, and McDonald's is consistent.

Plus some of the localized menu items were pretty amazing and the staff was super friendly.

Going from WhatsApp to Signal there's literally no problem with Signal UI.

Airbnb offered an unfair advantage (venture capital and centralized) in cornering the market on a streamlined platform, vs decentralized bnbs. Then when covid came, the individual bnbs operating on a tight margin shuttered, while airbnb prevailed (with massive layoffs). Both the hotel industry and airbnb were able to jack up prices due to loss of competition from mom&pops.

I can't answer your second question.
