I've given the demo a go, but unfortunately it has a nauseating amount of stutter. Wouldn't recommend it if the full game is anything like the demo.

I'd argue that nobody relied on the EU for defense in the first place. Prior to the war in Ukraine, Europe was not exactly known for getting militarily involved in conflicts or as a defensive ally, quite the opposite. See all the "strongly worded letter" jokes. I don't think Taiwan is under any illusions about getting major military support from Europe, no European country (except Vatican) even recognizes it. The EU and Ukraine were never formally allied prior to the war, so if anything, the amount of support was/is larger than expected.

That's true, though notably even the solo and friends-only options in SoT are still entirely online and share their progression with the main online mode. I agree that it would be cool to have a modding-friendly option that's completely separate.

While I would still prefer no anti-cheat

I'm curious, why's that? For me, cheaters are extremely detrimental to enjoying online games.

I'm glad to live in a place where that kind of surveillance is already illegal. I recently read that in some places, it's already commonplace to track every single keystroke and mouse click on workers' PCs. That's bad enough even without putting AI and facial recognition into the mix. Truly dystopian.

So ein Patriarch wie in den orthodoxen Kirchen ist jetzt auch nicht notwendiger.

Depends entirely on how you use it. There are many perfectly valid uses for the word, like in science or on a checkbox where you select your gender. The point where it can get offensive is when referring to individuals or groups of women as "females" where you could instead just use "women". It's language often used by incels and the like.

Vor allem beides NATO Staaten, wenn Deutschland im Krieg mit Russland ist sind das Norwegen und Dänemark ziemlich sicher auch.

Only recent Apple product I have is an iPad. Android still isn't that great when it comes to tablets and doesn't have many tablet optimized apps. The iPad is nice for drawing using the pencil and Procreate, watching movies and reading the newspaper. I don't use any of the Apple ecosystem stuff like iCloud etc. Some things are mildly infuriating though, like having no real browser choice (hopefully soon to change).

That sounds like a specific problem to whatever country you live in, not trades in general.

Yup! I think I got it as a goody in some Mickey Mouse Magazine in the mid-2000s.

Kinda true in Europe though. Don't know anyone who uses iMessage, it's pretty much irrelevant. I know the situation in the US is quite different, but ultimately they don't regulate for the US market.
