Yeah… if you’re german. You know exactly why and how your tech was ‘stolen’. I would suggest you sit in your corner of shame and don’t draw anymore attention to it.

I was there, 3000 years ago when PlayStation was first born. When we rewired the circuits to play CD’s we burned as tribute to ensure our 1MB memory cards would not fall to corruption.

You do not need to know coding to “fix” problems in Linux. We’re not living in 2006 anymore.
As someone that uses both Linux and Windows. Linux is by far easier to fix problems in. That doeant mean everything is easy. But it is easier. And the fixes are actually fixes, rather than a small patch you put on, hoping it won’t leak again.
The thing here is that most regular PC users have been on Windows for so long that they don’t even remember they had to learn how to use windows once upon a time.
I’ve been in IT support. And let me tell you. The ammount of times i had to create a vbs, bat, or powershell solution. (That’s actual coding and scripting) to fix problems in windows are far more frequent than you’d ever imagine. Not to mention all the times I’ve had to go into the windows registry and alter, remove, or create new regs.
I’m not saying Linux is the best. And I’m sure Linux has some super annoying fanatics. But to say that it has more problems than windows, or that those problems are more difficult to solve is just not true. At least not from my experience in IT
It’s fine for you to think Linux sucks. If that’s your opinion that’s your opinion. But your reasoning does not align with the reality of the situation.

Expand your view. Trumps actions damages the entierty of the US on a global scale. That’s damage that cannot be undone.
Everyone in Europe that previously used US services and products are now looking elsewhere. Including weapons manufacturing
No one can trust the US for anything that spans longer than 4 years.
The real damage of Trumps presidency isn’t going to be seen in the US for another 10 years.
- Comment on Saw this at the store this morning, took a double take 1 week ago:
I suspect this is legal because “under aged” in the US doesnt explicitly mean “under 18”, since the legal drinking age is 21.

I’m sure your customers have been demanding smaller bars that cost more.
Well, their customers have kept on buying their products so clearly they don’t care too much.
- Comment on In Open Carry states, is it also allowed to openly carry bladed weapons like Swords? Bow and arrow? 1 week ago:
Funny thing about that. Someone here in Sweden emailed the police if it was legal to own a trebuchet or if you needed a weapons liscense for it. (The police issue weapon licenses)
The response was that of course no one has ever tried, so there is no formal ruling. But crossbows require a weapons license while bows do not. Because the crossbow can store the energy. So leaning on that reasoning. It would probably require a license.
But I love that the question was asked to our police, and that they gave a serious and thorough answer.
So, technically. As long as you’re not breaking any traffic related laws. It is not illegal to mount a trebuchet on a roadworthy wagon and tow it behind your car.

Oh but we are here to answer your stupid questions?
Yes… that’s the entire point of this community.
why the fuck are you interested in the stupid rules of a barbaric uncivilized psychopathic society?
Because knowledge and curiosity leads to personal development. You should try it.
It is a bit funny though that you hate the US this much but still use their spelling of words. 👌
- Comment on In Open Carry states, is it also allowed to openly carry bladed weapons like Swords? Bow and arrow? 1 week ago:
I do find it hilarious that you might be allowed to openly carry a firearm, but a bow with arrows, that’s where we draw the line!
Perhaps in the context of that bow and arrow is silent? Where as you cannot discharge a firearm without anyone knowing.
- Comment on In Open Carry states, is it also allowed to openly carry bladed weapons like Swords? Bow and arrow? 1 week ago:
Because i specifically asked about open carry states. And you start talking about the “rest of the world”.
We’re not here to debate or discuss your personal opinions.
- Comment on In Open Carry states, is it also allowed to openly carry bladed weapons like Swords? Bow and arrow? 1 week ago:
What part of “open carry states” confused you? I don’t live in the US, not that it matters. I was curious about it.
- Comment on In Open Carry states, is it also allowed to openly carry bladed weapons like Swords? Bow and arrow? 1 week ago:
Interesting. Because i was just thinking, an arrow knocked but undrawn, how is that any different from having a gun in your holster, bullet in the chamber.
Knives i get, because of the concealment issue. But an actual sword worn on the hip in a scabard. It’s not concealed. And I’d argue far less dangerous than a gun.
Not that rules or laws are under obligation to make sense, unfortunately.

I’m sure they would vandalise with the rival clubs brands then.

I’m so sorry and ashamed of those Swedes. Tallin is such a beautiful city. I hope the Estonian police can gather enough data and share it with Swedish police to identify and prosecute those idiots.
- Comment on Do non-English speakers learn to code in English, or in their native language? 2 weeks ago:
The words you need to “know” to code, compared to what you need to know to communicate effectively, are but a promille.
He also specifically said “learn to code”. Beginners often struggle with the concept of a loop, let alone trying to import a bunch of libraries
- Comment on Do non-English speakers learn to code in English, or in their native language? 2 weeks ago:
Coding is all done in the language of the code… if, and, or, for, include, except, etc. It’s not exactly a vast array of words you need to know to be able to code.
Also, I can only speak for Sweden, but I started learning english in third grade. These days they start in kindergarten. Basic stuff, days of the week, 1 through 10. But still.

- Comment on Belgium national team's officialsocial media post after beating theUSA national team in the World Cup:"Overturn this" 1 month ago:
It actually is one of the primary sports for women in the US. And their womens team is one of the best, having won the world cup 4 times, 91, 99, 15 and 19
And for 1 in 4 sportsfans to follow football in the US isnt THAT bad. More than i expected.
- Comment on So wise. 1 month ago:
6% of 80. 1% of 80 is 0.8 0.86 is (86)/10 Which is 48/10 = 4.8
80% of 6. I’d probably think of it as (4/5)*6 = 24/5 Which is 20/5 + 4/5 = 4 + 4/5 = 4.8
Both are easy if you know how to visualise it. The benefit of knowing you can “reverse” it is that you can choose which method is easier for you to visualise. Which is incredibly useful for a lot of people

- Comment on Why do people say "my taxes" 2 months ago:
Because your taxes are the taxes you specifically pay and are specific to you and you alone.
While the taxes are the ones everyone pay. Like, taxes on buying groceries, products and services.

Some people pay $50-60 for the latest FIFA every year, some people pay $100+ for Netflix every year. Some people buy chips and candy for $100+ a year. Some people buy fastfood for $100+ a year.
How about we just accept that each person get to spend their own money on what makes them happy and leave it at that.
- Comment on What is a game you can’t understand why its so popular ? 2 months ago:
It doesn’t give satisfaction as itself.
Not for you maybe. Because you refuse to see anything beyond “oh they just hate themselves, they’re abuse victims”.
Like most games. It’s a journey, there’s a story waiting to be told. All you have to do is ask the questions.
Some people enjoy the journey you take together with your character. And by the end, you realise that it wasn’t just your character that became stronger. It was you that became stronger. And the castle that’s in ruins is that way for a purpose. Something happened to it. And if you want to discover what that something is. You can.
But you seem like the person that can’t comprehend why someone wants to climb a mountain. Why not just take a helicopter to the top?

You know how Neo at the end of the Matrix finally understood how everything works? When he counters every move Smith makes with ease despite getting his ass kicked just moments earlier at the train station.
That’s the feeling we get from soulsgames when we overcome a challenge.
- Comment on An 82-year-old YouTuber grandma was raided by police and SWATs during her live stream last night where she plays Minecraft to raise money for her grandsons cancer. Authorities brought 20 police cars 2 months ago:
You thinking SWAT sounds cool is on you. Though the marketing does help, tv series, movies, games etc.
In Sweden we call our equivalent “Strike Force” but in swedish of course. And they basically have access to whatever they need to get the job done. That’s why they exist. And personally, i think their name is pretty cool. It’s very direct and you know instantly upon hearing it what it is they do.
