it was stopped because there were still powerful opponents of fascism who eventually managed to stamp it out

Of the western countries that fought fascism, most were flirting with it before the war. Certainly the UK, US and France had their fascist sympathizers. Germany just went a little too fast and the frog jumped out of the boiling water.

Hopefully it'll go similarly this time: one nation goes full nazi and the rest pull the breaks.

The slop will be caught, your rating lowered until all your messages are simply filtered out as spam.

you could try to cook up some kind of trust chain, without totally abandoning privacy.

Get a government-certified agencies minting master key tied to your id. You only get one, with trust rating tied to it.

With that master key you can generate infinite amount of sub-ids that dont identify you but show your trust rating(fuzzed).

Have a cross-network reporting system that can lower that rating for abuses like botting.

idk Im just spitballing

Truth.

Valve been private company allows them to avoid some shortsighted decisions of public corps, but they're no saints.

We need more stores, with an interstore protocol allowing you to move your licenses. EU get on that please

This isn't a binary. You can oppose absolutism, revolutionary terror and the current neoliberal status quo all at the same time.

A few years ago I was living in fear of local government turning internet into intranet north korea-style (dont ask). So - no joke - I've had factorio archived with latest versions of seablock, space exploration and nullius. Figured it'll keep me going for a decade or so.

I'll check it out, thanks!

Windows' lightweight photo editing thing. Great for highlighting screenshots.

All image editing software on linux (that I've tried) is 10x more clunky.

I remember being super excited over 13, only to fall asleep playing it. 98% of combat encounters was just mashing X-button :/

Better question is what doesn't it import.

Cars? Imported. Induatrial tools? Imported. Electronics? 100% of it is imported.

It has decent agriculture production, but all the tractors and factories for it are aging, cause maintenance got really expensive after the war because yes all that machinery was imported.

Oh and weapons. They do produce weapons.

All imported goods will be more expensive. So, like, everything.

Same. I've been having a blast for the last year with three other ppl from work: we go for coffees, play board games every two weeks, chat in messages.

Haven't been so happy with my social life since, like, ever.
