That was frustrating. On the plus side, they didn’t show every partner of all drivers. I appreciate that.

Sadly, the capital has stronger weapons and professional fighters on its side to fight for their interests: soldiers. I don’t see how civilians owning guns would help, especially if some of them support a fascist regime and would fight for them.

I’m afraid your logic doesn’t hold up.

We can agree that humans have violent tendencies and that some will inevitably act on them. But let’s flip your argument: if people are violent and will always find a way to harm others, should we then legalize automatic weapons? But why stop there? Explosives? Heavy artillery? Personal nukes?

Maybe we can agree that limiting an individual’s capacity for violence is a sensible goal. Most countries restrict access to guns which seems like a reasonable place to draw the line.

Of course you’re right with that. Broadcasting and licensing is regulated by territorial copyright law. What I’m referring to is this:

Regulation (EU) 2017/1128 of the European Parliament

This Regulation introduces a common approach in the Union to the cross-border portability of online content services, by ensuring that subscribers to portable online content services which are lawfully provided in their Member State of residence can access and use those services when temporarily present in a Member State other than their Member State of residence.

I assume they are either not allowed or willing to track how temporary my stay in my home country is which means I can watch without VPN.

Ah, it might be an EU thing. If I remember correctly, it’s against EU law to restrict online content by region. You should come back. It’s fun here, I swear!

Yep, also doing it via Google Pay from Germany. Sky has exclusive rights here which means a stupid price tag, a horrible app and I can’t stand the German commentators. I don’t need to use a VPN, however. I opened my account with one through the Netherlands but since then I can stream without one.

Worked flawless but in recent weeks the f1tv app has been kind of shit. Not opening for a couple of minutes, not buffering right. Kind of frustrating.

Yes, it’s very annoying. I don’t care about them at all. The same goes for most viewer shots. I’m a simple man; I just want to see cars go wrooom!

I’m glad someone from the grid picked it up and commented on it. There’s a tiny possibility that something will change.

Wow, I can’t wrap my head around hitting someone with a car and then berating them before driving away. Psychopathic shit. I hope they catch him.

Thank you for your service 🫡

I get you point. I guess I’m a simple man. OP made me laugh. I expect because of sarcasm. If he actually thinks the guy is a mastermind I’d have to laugh even harder. In any case, I enjoyed his contribution to this community. Nevertheless, you point is valid, especially with topics that are more complex.

I’m not sure that’s true. I observed more sarcasm without the need to flag it (/s) compared to reddit and I like it. My post are often sarcastic (probably a coping mechanism, the world has gone crazy) and I wouldn’t be a big fan of flagging them as such: “Hey look, I made a joke. Now laugh and press the upvote!”

No worries, enjoy your coffee.

I mean he was caught asking his daughter who is also describing her mother as her best friend to cover for him with a plan that was likely to fail to begin with. That’s not the plan of a mastermind. Actually the opposite.

It’s sarcasm, my dude.

This really hurts my brain. How can politicians be this shortsighted?

I’m living here and you are absolutely correct. Public transit is good. Most streets are 50 km/h. Some are 30 but that is oftentimes not enforced.

Several studies have shown that a speed limit of 30 km/h can massively reduce the number and severity of accidents. But as Germans we hate the idea of slowing down for other road users. We bought those shiny non electric cars and we want to blast through the city, god damnit!

I prefer the Microsoft store version.

Thanks for the giveaway! I would really like Wolfenstein II.

Edit:

Forgot to mention one of my favorite gaming moments from over 10 years ago: Organizing a LAN party with friends, some of them not gamers. They had a great time as well. One came with a Mac and didn’t. We shared and made it work.

Below Zero was very much lackluster so I’m sceptical about this one. I would love for it to be as good as the first which is one of my absolute favorite games.

The race engineer was wrong. The stewards confirmed after the race that the first incident between Max and George would not be penalized and Max taking the escape route was fine. There was no reason to give back the place in hindsight.

If you run your own server you can have a look at bazarr.
