Maybe partially. The socialist governments wanted secularism, got overthrown by the CIA, then that government got overthrown by theocrats. How much of Iranian society supports these policies regardless of the US’ intervention, I don’t know
I can’t blame him too much. Usually the more trustworthy people in the scene only release big games, or popular indie games. If you want to play really obscure games, it’ll be released by some random guy with a botnet
I only buy resold keys for games from large studios 
We need to elevate this by creating an industry for entire robots of dead relatives. That we eliminate coping and allow everyone to live in a fantasy world forever 
Gossiping about other people. Venting is fine, but when you start pointing out weird random unflattering traits from people we know just to giggled I just lose interest
More Chinese people living in China believe their government is democratic compared to Americans living in the US
Well Lula, MBS, Macron, Bill Gates, the Taliban, and Olof also attracted the attention of Beijing. So this shouldn’t really be surprising
Judge: “well, you saw his plea. What more can I do? Not guilty.”
Yeah until they start buying missiles and drones from the US that require windows 95 with back doors to function
Preferably, they pay for my relocation to an area with reliable public transportation. But I’ll also take Company car, and company pays for gas, insurance, and maintenance. They also pay for babysitters and my commute. Also, bonuses and raises on a regular basis.
They’ve deemed that it’s important enough that I take my precious time away from family to stay with in traffic and sit in an office all day, so they should pay dearly for it.
Nevertheless, it’s completely idiotic for most jobs. The logical business owner would salivate at the idea of all their employees preferring to use their own equipment and working space. That would eliminate so much overhead costs and company rent. Not to mention it has been proven that employees were as productive or even more productive when they worked at home. But our world is full of idiots who wasted a bunch of money trying to profit off land speculation and debt, so you have businesses wasting money requiring people to go back to the office . It just doesn’t make sense
I generally prefer iPhones too, but god damn are they trying their hardest to break repairability. Like you can even change the battery without jumping through hoops or paying a bunch of money so some teenager can follow a YouTube video. Also, jail breaking on iPhone sucks the soul outta me sometimes.
I also prefer Acrobat over Linux options. I’ve seen hardline users criticize others for asking for an app that can do multiple things, saying you should use different apps for different purposes. I agree generally, but I really don’t think have a PDF app that can read, rotate, and merge multiple PDFs and photos together to create a PDF is THAT much of an ask.
I can only speak for myself, but it’s nice to have more international presence here. Right now it’s mostly Anglos and other Europeans

“why would hexbear do this?”
Same energy as calling any bad thing done by Americans as “like North Korea”
Probably had more time to train than Reddit brigades that got blown up
Got laid off because I didn’t beat up and kidnap enough young men off the streets and send them to boot camp
How is the US benefitting from this?
According to the most cliche liberal line: the US is killing Russia’s soldiers with no loss of American blood and putting old equipment to good use while bolstering domestic military industrial complex to acquire new stockpiles.
It’s a great return of investment.
No, workers staying healthy through preventative care is not a “return on investment.” Stop talking about healthcare.
That’s how Soulja Boy boosted his numbers. He would upload his own songs and rename them to popular ones lol
AMLO merges the Sinaloa cartel into the Mexican military, insists less than 9% are still drug lords, praises El Chapo for being a Mexican revolutionary who was wrongfully imprisoned by the U.S.
The Ku Klux Klan contractors marched towards Washington DC following a proposal by President DeSantis to force them to sign contracts with the Department of Defense. The president reassured black Americans that they don’t need to fear the Klan because they’re just American patriots, and no longer hateful
