That's a good tip. I keep hearing lots of positive things about the story and the world, so it'd be fun to check it out for myself
Oh trust me, I know myself. I really haven't had the energy to play challenging games in a while now, so games like Cloudpunk, Sable, Lightyear Frontier, The Invincible, etc etc have been right up my alley. Anything I don't have to grind, I have enough of that in my life as it is
Souls-likes are pretty much the antithesis of what I personally enjoy in games. They seem stressful as fuck and my capacity for handling more stress is currently somewhere near zero
Ha, fuckin' touché
Joke's on you, I was never good in the first place
Yep, no disagreement there. This sort of mass surveillance is a fucking terrible idea no matter who's behind the wheel
Doesn't change who's in charge now
Yep, and as I pointed out in another comment in this thread, Chat Control isn't the only piece of legislation like this that's in the works.
Considering that the extreme right just won big, I have no doubt that one of these fascist surveillance packages will go through. Yeah, at first it may be used for catching criminals, until it isn't
And "Chat Control" isn't even the only thing like this in the pipeline. There's the so-called "security by design" bullshit (which does the opposite of what then name implies) that's actually even worse than Chat Control and has also been worked on in secret, and which'd include mass scale surveillance of not just photos but pretty much everything, and is much more likely to pass than Chat Control.
That load-bearing "mostly" is doing a lot of work here.
I invite everybody to find out how everything "mostly" works if you disable "most of" javascript – also have fun deciding which parts to enable because you think they're trustworthy
