    I agree, it shouldn't be. Particularly as I can't imagine them removing reviews if it praised a feature that was subsequently removed or changed.

    It will be. The best case might be valve turns into some form of co-op, it might keep some of that culture going.

    I don't see MAGA surviving post Trump. I'd say it will morph, and elements will remain in the republican party but not intact. Trump is a huge magnetising force but without him, it…

    Tokyo is one of the new cities, interesting. Is this the first non-US city waymo has tested in?

    A few here have commented on different aspects, and they have their part to play but I agree with you, market fragmentation is the scale killer. From an outside perspective it migh…

    I don't know if this is the answer but Fiskars is an old company, founded 1649, which is publicly listed https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiskars

    There is the expression in English, rubbing your/their hands with glee. All context dependent as for the physicality. Someone holding their hands tightly and rubbing them might be …

    I don't agree with that framing. It reads more as saying what Google did was worse than it appears, not waving away. Whatever your own opinion, Google did it out of what they perce…

    While I'd say so, I don't think in the medium future it would have made much difference. China wants ensure control over strategic elements anyway. I suspect that the west has star…

    And misery if done wrong. I have to temper my perfectionist temperament to avoid the self flagellation that comes with small failings.

    I wouldn't classify that as wholly accurate. Yes there is a substantial rural community but that's quite true for lots of Ireland. Letterkenny in Donegal has a sizeable tech sector…

    That appears to show that the volume has returned but not its price. "The revenue is still down 43% from a year ago, the IEA said, as Russia is forced to sell its barrels to a more…

    But they aren't selling at their original price, Russia is now selling to those partners at a reduced price. At the very least it reduces the amount of funds Russia has at its disp…

    While it might not have been communist, Korea certainly was oppressive when it built the chaebols which did involve a fair bit of government management.

    Being from Europe, my perspective might be as biased as American fatalism but as the article says I think the key most important aspect is lacking a true single market and I'm scep…

    I took a look at toolbox just now and seen they've only just got symmetry and stencils last month, which would make me worried about what other aspects they are currently missing. …

    I think the democratic aspect can be overemphasised. The Weimar Republic lasted only 15 years and lurched from crisis to crisis. It was rife with political violence, several attemp…

    Even customisable like your character's appearance. This was one of my criticisms of Fallout 4, the voice actors weren't bad, it just didn't fit very well some player characters.
