As soon as Trump actually does take Greenland: “Did you even say thank you?!”

I really hope you’re right. Great parts of X seem to be all for it, and usual right wing influencers are also onboard.

Well said, and it really puts it all into perspective. There are vast geopolitical consequences.

I see a lot of right wing influencers arguing a kind of might makes right rhetoric. They say that the US should take Greenland simply because it can, and the US needs it. Which makes me wonder if I as a Dane am morally justified in gathering a few friends, breaking into these influencers homes, kicking them out, and just take up residence. After all, I need their houses, and my friends and I are stronger. Isn’t that so?

I suppose there is no moral obligation for me to obey American laws, if there is no moral obligation for America to obey international laws. If the US is justified in hostile takeover of a foreign democratic nation, then I see no reason why I, as a Danish citizen, should abide by US laws.

Used to be called OpenOffice back in the day. At least the name change made sense.

Oh absolutely, they get off on it!

Here in Denmark, a climate activist was pushed down by a guard during our kings new years speech a few days ago. Most rational people agree that force was necessary (He didn’t move after being called out), and I agree. But the man was violently pushed to the ground. When he returned to the crowd, someone punched him in the face.

This was not a climate activist blocking public infrastructure, or sabotaging a grid. He pretty much just stood there for a moment with a sign, telling the public “Pull the emergency brake, climate collapse” before he was violently pushed to the ground and punched.

I’m not going to argue whether these things are appropriate, right, wrong, or what amount of force was necessary. But I do want to point out the glee, the frothing of the mouth, the absolute intense schadenfreude of every right-of-center person sharing his picture on social media. Everyone was roaring in approval, not just celebrating violence, but in many cases encouraging more of it.

People absolutely love this stuff. It’s intense tribalism, and it’s getting worse. I don’t remember it being like this 20 years ago.

People on X are celebrating as usual. They sure are owning the libs, with their leaders warmongering.

I once interviewed the former chancellor of West Germany, Helmut Schmidt, on a stage in Hamburg Schauspielhaus in front of thousands. It was also on TV.

I think it’s quite important from the perspective of media preservation. We basically have a snapshot of music from a time where it was mostly Human-Made.

I spent 40$ on it back in 2013. I looked forward to playing the single player campaign.

Then I found a girl. Went through university. Got a career. Had two kids. Got a divorce. And now I have time to play it again, but feel like I’ve mostly grown out of gaming.

My favorite one is “Just add multiplayer”.

Sure. I’ll just go right ahead and toggle it in the engine. Why didn’t I think of that?

Diablo4 has memory leak issues. As a software engineer myself, I just don’t see any excuse for a game this long in production to have memory leak problems.

There is no doubt that a lot of games are getting rushed without being properly tested.

This still cracks me up even though I heard it so many years ago
