Valve is notorious for working on games and then not releasing them. There were several Teamfortress 2 versions which only got leaked and playable in the last few years. Similarly HL 3 was worked on several times since HL2 ep2. But due to the company structure and large scope/expectations for such a HL, first person singleplayer game, every attempt was scrapped at some stage of development.

I can recommend Tyler McViker and gabe follower for two great Valve-Journalists with many insider connections and both fid thousands of hours datamining the engine. Its probably where the article got its informations.

Thanks, sounds interesting altho on first impression it doesn't seem too viable to mee. It reminds me if the "jury" some countries have, where a group of people decide, what to do with a alleged problematic person. Am not too sure thats the best way to do it.

And also the "I am not angry, just disappointed" vibe and love-starving seems a bit odd.

It seems hard to imagine in todays world. But maybe on a local level? In Switzerland we have communal-discussions and votes as local legislation, the other two state powers on communal level are elected. Thats enough politics for most people.

But what about bad actors? Surely anarchists believe, that there are "bad people" who want personal gain/wealth/possessions by stealing or through fraud for example?

So then there needs to be a (central) authority who can make enforce rules, even if they are trivially "natural" or democratically validated.

And for that authority to do their job, they need authority over other people. The ability to lock a appartment up to investigate a murder for example. Or maybe even search a house of a alleged criminal.

Or is all of that just the capitalistic way of dealing with things and there is an other way? Or do anarchists believe that problems of that kind wont exist in their utopia?

If there is a bad tone, Im sorry, not a native speaker and I am not trying to argue in bad faith.

Edit: Thats kind of the thing about the intersection of anarchism and feminism I find curious. (In my city I see stickers like "feminists for anarchism" or "anarchy: ..., ..., and feministic")

And at the same time feminists want a stronger percicution (sorry) and punishment for sexualized crime, better institutional protection in labour-law and so on. In my view all things that are only achiveable with "more government", or at least better government/laws and certainly not with less government/rules/authorities.

Isnt anarchism more scattered and small groups of people fighting one another over power?

Thats what I imagine when I hear anarchism

Weiblich: Die Kuh, eine Kuh

Männlich: Der Hund, ein Hund

Sächlich: Das Mädchen, ein Mädchen

Sie ist ein Mädchen. sie ist ein Insta-Girl. Stimmt doch alles.

It bothers me that "adults" are defined as 25-29 year olds. The year-range is sensible for this graphic, but the title is a bit off imo.

Oh, and "home"≠"with parents"! The title sucks :D

I dont get it. Is this a meme that plays off christians having to ask "god" for permission for sex?

Or am I on the wrong path?

Edit: I'd like to hear the reasoning of the person downvoting my question.

  • Hardcore christian?
  • Brainwashed by russian propaganda?
  • Thinks its too stupid of a question to ask?

Arent Late-Night shows glorified ads?

I've never watched more than 5', mostly funny interview-clips, and its mostly actors or authors who are promoting their latest work. But that might be my ignorance and uninformedness

[–] freeman 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Whats the clip?

Und vermutlich sollte diese eigene Autobahnspur neu gebaut werden, um die anderen Autofahrer ja nicht einzuschränken, oder? Ist das gegreenwashter Autobahnausbau?

Please, we need to say X-hour-week, as a four-day workweek can still be 4 10h days in a week or even more.

The aim is the reduction of work-time, not the restructuring of those hours.

Its baffeling to me, that he kind of talks like trump.

"it was very unhelpful for both of them to make those kind of comments. It’s not going to help them..."

Maybe its because its a transcribed speech/interview or maybe because its because I'm not a native speaker. Or am I right?
