For traffic stops far more more than for anything else.

I went full Linux almost 3 years ago. Games worked very well when I first switched but it’s improved significantly in performance and QoL since then. If your interested in gaming on Linux, I wouldn’t wait for desktop steamOS, just get a distro and try it. I like Arch, but it’s definitely not for everyone, especially if you’re not into tinkering although even archinstall makes getting setup significantly easier now.

I know you live in Europe, so it’s different, but in the US healthcare is almost always tied to a person’s employment. If you don’t have a job, your family doesn’t have medical coverage. Everything everyone else has said is also relevant in the US as well.

I’ve taken pay cuts to work at better jobs. Meta would have to offer me CEO money and a position where I could break shit “on accident”. After the damage is done, I could ride my golden parachute back down to Earth and use thatoney for good, like fighting against Meta DCs and stuff.

It wouldn’t last a day.

I think Israel committing genocide is worse than the US supporting it. Both bad, one is literally pulling the trigger. I think that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is worse than the US attacks in Iran. Both bad, one has a lot more indiscriminate killing. I think the China’s genocide of Uyghurs is worse than the US supporting other bad things. Both bad, one is a literal genocide.

Both opinions are based on reality. You have a hardon for hating the US so will do everything you can to paint it as the worst. I see the US as bad but not as bad as those other aforementioned countries.

You’re not more right than I am, you’re just more of an asshole about it. We can agree to disagree, or you can double down on why your opinion means more than literally anyone else’s.

Do you have a constant stream of cars driving by your window 24 hours a day? If you did, maybe you’d feel different. Also, lots of people do want to ban not just loud cars, but all cars. I hate loud cars and trucks. If I’m inside and hear a loud diesel truck with straight pipes and aftermarket loud exhaust, it pisses me off. I absolutely think that shit should be illegal, and I’m certainly not alone.

All of that aside, these people lived where they live before the DCs got built and now their lives are negatively affected because of it. The DCs should have to make every concession to not negatively affect residents. If that means spending billions more on technology to block noise, close loop cooling systems, and prevent localized increases in air temperature, then they should have to do that. If they can’t, then they don’t deserve to exist. The life and comfort of any individual citizen is more important in every way over the existence of any AI data center.

It actually is my opinion. You typed a bunch of stuff, and I’m sure you make some fine points, but at the end of the day, it’s all opinion for how a person ranks bad to more bad. I feel what Israel, Russia, and China are doing is worse than the US. You feel that perhaps that’s not true. We have different opinions, which is fine.

Correct. I’m just saying that I proof read my work, that I deploy things, and that I don’t proof read my texts.

I mostly mean proof what I’ve written prior to having someone else test. I often will comment out lines when trying different things so I just make sure I clean up what I’ve done. We have a few human checks as well as some automated checks between each stage of deployment for each environment.

I barely proof read anything I type on my phone, and my comment history is a testament to that. I deploy code or system changes most days, but I proof read the shit out of those on top of the QC they goes through. Any company worth anything will have a process for reviewing and approving anything being deployed, or probably destroyed for that matter.

It wasn’t my claim, but I would imagine OP maybe referring to the active Uyghur and Turkic Muslim genocide. The US government and by proxy the military commit numerous atrocities. The most recent action in Iran being extremely relevant. As bad as those acts are, imo they still fall short of what Russia, Israel, and China are doing. Again, not a defense of the US, just my opinion on how those 4 nations stack up. And to reiterate, all should be banned from international events like the Olympics.

That wasn’t a defense of the US. It was pointing out that while the US is bad, others are worse. They even closed out saying they agree US shouldn’t be allowed in internationally competition. Nobody should be genociding, some are genociding harder than others, all should be banned.

They have also been the catalyst for modern drone warfare. On one hand, more drones should mean more targeted strike minimizing collateral damage and casualties. On the other hand, it’s a lot easier for the worst to carryout attacks rapidly and cheaply.

60dB is like a constant conversation happening by your ear, non stop, and at a constant shrill frequency. A person shouldn’t have to significantly alter their lifestyle to accommodate a blight on humanity that’s also destroying the environment.

I will absolutely downvote some people I disagree with if I think they are making a bad faith argument or I think their view is bad. If the masses decide my opinion is wrong then it will work out in the end. If not, then it must have been a bad comment.

I had heard some initial reports that it was suspended due to the way it being reviewed was against the rules. Something about using slow-mo before calling for the review or something. I had hoped that was the case, because this was the alternative. My already extreme disgust for FIFA somehow got way worse.

Like I said, it would be better if they listed the full price. My only argument is that it shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone that’s had a subscription. Mildly irritating is a fair assessment, it just doesn’t bother me personally.

It looks like the monthly price is 10€ per month. I just looked mine up and it’s $9.99. my 1 year option is $4.99 (50%) and the 2 year option is $2.99 (70%). So the percentages don’t line up with mine, but they are consistent in that 1 month is $10. If OP is paying monthly with no commitment, then I don’t find volume pricing infuriating, but I do find it odd that the percentages aren’t the same across the board. Of course if you’re already on a $2.99 plan and they’re grandfathering you into pricing, then I have no problems with any of it. That’s how every subscription like this works, discounts for longer commitment.

Also, the pricing is listed as per month with a month based commitment. That’s also standard practice. Yes, it’s all required up front, but they are more or less itemizing the fees. I agree that having the total listed would be an upgrade, but this is how all of my subscriptions operate.

I don’t know what I’m missing here. The pricing looks fair. Longer term agreements usually mean cheaper per month pricing. It looks like OP is on a 24 month plan that I assume is expiring. What the infuriating part? It’s it that the ad popped up on the first place?
