Oh, I thought they made it for story, gameplay, fun and such things, not for the obscure and overcomplicated ruleset.

Why is 2e so important for you for the game to be BG?

People didn’t like it? It was great.

Seems you are confused how those blocks work so let’s talk about their services that are definitely not blocked like mail. You can easily and legally buy their mail service in those countries. Do they have to comply with their laws with their mail service?

Didn’t understand your answer about the US laws. If some judge in the US decides that Proton need to make a backdoor, what happens then?

It works sometimes, and Proton did not stop providing services there, you can buy their vpn, the government just blocks the protocols.

The US has a law that may require you to add backdoors to your software. Do they have to comply with that one in your opinion?

Who will prosecute them in Switzerland and for what? They didn’t break any Swiss laws.

What happens if they don’t pay?

Let’s imagine they don’t comply. What will happen then?

Do they comply with Chinese, Russian or American laws then?

How does it work?

Did they move after that? Sweden was a bad choice to begin with given their history with the pirates bay.

Obvious answer is because they are not liberal, calling yourself liberal just works better in elections. After the elections they do what they were paid for.

They sure try to advertise on that but they are a Swiss company so Canadian laws have little to do with them.

They are not a Canadian company though, so they don’t have to comply with Canadian laws.

I’m not American, pretty far from liking American politics not just current but most of it. Or even Americans frankly, I mean you guys don’t have basic human necessities like healthcare, education, workers rights, you routinely do bad things to other people, and even then you act like you invented algebra.

Yet I don’t think your modern interpretation is correct in historical context. At the time you talk about(and most times in history) killing other people was often necessary for people to progress or even survive. Times were bad - people didn’t have healthcare, education, workers rights. So limiting the American Dream to common interactions does not explain why it ever became a meme.

The thing about the American Dream is the idea that you can change your destiny(be born, suffer, die). Like you were born poor(aka 99% people then and mostly so now) but you can go some other place kill people do some pretty normal stuff you could do at home though you wouldn’t have such problems if you actually did that stuff at home to some certain people and suddenly you can have life, home, kids - all those things you can’t afford today.

So the American Dream is a good meme and a positive thing you just need to use it to interact with very specific people now for it to work properly.

Why don’t people send police to the white house and houses of CEOs on a cooldown?

I read that Linux Foundation spend only 3% on the Linux kernel. Where the rest go? Well one of their biggest spending is AI.

might as well discuss the color of Frodo’s shoes in that scene

He didn’t have any…

Daemon spawning mmm

That’s a great game
