    They like to say these things that don’t actually make any sense.

    It’s the same with the crying around Europe’s mandatory USB-C connector. “Oh it stifles progress” Apple protested.
    Forgetting they had the same unchanged connector, and in fact data protocol on their devices for twelve years before Europe decided they wanted a standard, with all the freedom to improve it.

    A standard, apple already adopted for everything not iPhone no less.

    We have basicly everything you play games on, so also both of these. But the Steam Deck is absolutely the gigachad, even moreso than my actual gaming pc if you just look at hours used.

    If you forced me to get rid of all my devices but one, it’d probably be the Steam Deck that’ll be left. And yes this consideration included my gaming pc and smartphone.

    The only regret I have about buying the Steam Deck is being so late to the party, having acquired it but 6 months ago.










  • Your not towing anything with the smaller transits.

    Even the smaller vans can tow 1.5t. I’ll concede it’s a lot less then a pickup can tow but this is not “nothing” and plenty practical for lots of use cases you’d have in any city.

    And they suck in winter.

    This is the Netherlands, not the Yukon. We don’t have 5 foot deep snow on the roads in the Winter. In fact it’s been years since we had any kind of snow at all. We just have a mild chill and mostly just rain.

    The off-road/awd capability’s of any vehicle are almost entirely irrelevant in the Netherlands for the overwhelming majority of people.



  • Trump has the “excuse” of having to depend on El Salvador for this but there’s no way Bukele has no control over their prison system. This is the same guy that had the weight to “sanitize” El Salvador of criminals, i’m sure there’s nothing within El Salvador’s borders this guy can’t control.

    In other words, this man will die in CECOT.

    This guy is likely already dead, which would also be the only somewhat logical explanation as to why Nayib can’t return him.



  • Ik ben al jaren lid van de partij waar ik ook al jaren op stem, maar het probleem lijkt mij toch vooral te zoeken in de hoek van politici die zich laten beinvloeden door mensen met belangen die niet persé heel breed liggen, en mensen die nooit vinden dat ze genoeg geld hebben en er ook niet voor schromen hun welvaart over de rug van anderen nog verder op te krikken.

    Volgens mij is het percentage stemmers die echt lid zijn van een partij ook nooit echt magistraal veel hoger geweest? En lid zijn van een politieke partij of echt meedoen in dat proces en dingen als partijcongressen bijwonen en flyers uitdelen tijdens verkiezingen enzo zijn ook nog wel twee verschillende dingen.





  • Sony: we‘ll make it a little more expensive for everyone else, so no one feels left out

    Let me fix that for you:

    Sony: We‘ll make it a little more expensive for everyone else so our US sales don’t sink harder than a brick in a pond.

    Companies really don’t care about people feeling left out. Company’s fear loss of sales. And that Trumps senseless antics by proxy of Sony make the PlayStation more expensive in my end of the world low key aggravates me, even if it’s only 50 bucks.

    America voted for this, we didn’t.
