The UN used to be involved in peacekeeping. The problem is that the world is more divided than it was before. UN peacekeepers used to patrol Gaza. They defended South Korea.
As it is now, the US has completely removed most funding from the UN. Even if the deliberative bodies wanted to be more involved in world conflicts, they don’t have the funding anymore to do so. Trump is trying to strangle the UN to make room for his dictator council.

Exactly. If you are in a parking and going in front first into a parking space on your right side, you are driving dangerously against traffic.

Where on their website does it say that fascists can subpoena your payment information on their website? All I see is false advertising saying that no one can read your emails and that their service is secure.

Maybe they’ve changed the website, but when I started using Proton, they never gave me any warning about paying with a credit card.

It’s not theoretical. Protonmail should not have handed over the personal data for victims of political persecution.

People shouldnt need to think about opsec to have private emails. False advertising on Protonmails part, and government policy issue in the countries in question.

Yeah, it was fair to complain about power tripping reddit mods 4 years ago. Now I just feel bad for them. But I also haven’t used reddit in years.

The GDP per capita of those countries are skewed because most of the workers live outside the city state and commute in. You’re just seeing the GDP benefits that cities have over rural areas.

- Comment on Why is Valve being sued for almost $900 million, but Epic Games wasn't sued when they bought Rocket League and Fall Guys to remove them from steam? 1 month ago:
I could see Valve controlling a bit of a monopoly in the game launcher and gaming social media markets.
A pro-consumer change that the EU could impose would be to split up the game marketplace from the game launcher and gaming social media markets through intercompatible APIs.
Maybe you could download games from steam in GOG or Lutris, and the steam overlay works on GOG or Lutris too. Maybe your discord friends could show up in the Steam friend list.

Not allowing devs to sell steam download codes on other stores, But the ban only applies if they are selling the download code for cheaper than Steam
-
Not allowing devs to sell steam DLC download codes on other stores
I don’t think 1 or 2 puts other stores at any disadvantage. If a store wants to sell steam download codes then Valve has to get their normal cut. If they don’t want to pay the valve tax, then they don’t need to offer a Steam download code.

I think ideally Greenland would have their own military as part of (European aligned) NATO when they decolonize, but that’s a few decades off probably. The Trump situation is accelerating decolonization though, as long as they don’t end up getting colonized through American conquest.
- Comment on Wikipeter was the founder of the site in 1993 when he wanted to know more about model trains without having to visit the library 2 months ago:
The point isn’t that Wikipedia is wrong, the point is that your research papers should cite primary sources published by the field instead of a generic encyclopedia. Even if the pages on encyclopedia are maintained by respected authors, it’s not immediately obvious, and the information is likely surface level and not worth citing.
