I think all food packaging should be standardized and reusable, with a deposit system similar to reusable glass drink bottles (at least in Germany).

For instance: All the cereals should use the same returnable 'cereal box'

I mean, all the phones I've ever had (including my current Samsung A52 from a couple years back) have a headphone jack, but I haven't used anything wired in around 6 years.

I just find Bluetooth to be much more convenient and a nicer experience. I even bought a Bluetooth adapter for my desktop so I could use the same headphones there.

Not to mention, I just looked and there are plenty of phones with 3.5 mm jacks on the market, so it looks like the option is still out there for those that prioritize such a feature.

In Vermont (US Bundesstaat) sind die verboten und es ist mega schön dort.

Man merkt sofort den Unterschied wenn man über die Grenze fährt...

The democrats tend to be less organized but way more friendly and accommodating, the republicans are very their way or the highway, but tend to have all their ducks in a row.

This is the most believable thing I've ever heard.

It's mostly the "hobby" bit, which implies that this is one of your favorite, regular free-time activities. If you are someone who smokes weed a few times a year in social situations, that is a different situation.

A lot of people would find it difficult to be around someone who spends their time smoking unless they are really into it too. The smell especially can be really grating/annoying, and the person smoking often doesn't realize because they have become smell-blind over time (similar to tobacco smokers).

I want to see a new Home Alone where 44-year old McCauley Culkin plays an 8 year old and no one acknowledges that he isn't actually 8 years old.

Yeah that one looked nice, actually

You are right on those points, but it's always easier to police/regulate local corporations than foreign ones since you have more tools at your disposal.

With foreign networks, you can only really levy fines and ultimately threaten to ban them from the country.

I mean, I know this won't be a popular opinion, but it's a huge security risk to allow any non-european social network.

Yeah, I played through the whole thing on my steam deck and it was mostly a great experience.

The last act was, performance wise, pretty rough though. Maybe there was some setting I could have changed to make it smoother, but the framerate was only about half what I got during the other acts.

It's even more popular than the 'main' version!

Yeah controller would be really rough.
