How exactly will they force compliance for companies not based in Italy, or even the EU?

Good thing then that I never, ever in my entire life have given Amazon a single cent, nor will I.

It’s been a while but AFAIK you control three or four party members so it’s more like the older BG games than NWN1 in that regard.

Storywise it’s set in the Forgotten Realms near the regions of the first game but it’s a completely new story with new characters. Iirc the story manages to decently subvert some expectations. I remember a conversation with a dead god in the expansion that was on par with meeting Sovereign for the first time in Mass Effect.

That one has already been done: https://store.steampowered.com/app/704450/Neverwinter_Nights_Enhanced_Edition/

Yesss, loved that one, especially the first expansion, Mask of the Betrayer. Prime D&D storytelling (and very decent gameplay).

Put me on the same list whydontcha. Fuck ICE weasels.

This guy understands graphic design

Hahah he really hates Altman’s guts. Good. Love to see those two expend their energy on each other rather than on fucking all of us.

I’ve been on Win10 for years, never had a single problem with any update whatsoever.

Still not subjecting myself to W11 though. As soon as Win10 support ends, I’ll make the switch.

There must always be an “underclass” in capitalism for the upper echelons to threaten the middle echelons. No exceptions. Wether that’s the homeless, psychiatric patients, gay or trans people… doesn’t matter. There will be some regional differences in what constitutes this underclass but the end result is always the same. Capitalism CANNOT FUNCTION without this implicit threat of excommunication and starvation.

The only real difference with the recent past is that all of this has become much, much more explicit than it ever used to be before. But make no mistake, even with a Biden or Harris at the helm, this would still be the case, just much more muted.

This is a feature of the system, not a flaw, and will never change as long as capitalism in its current form dominates.

I feel like that’s one texture replacement away from reality. But knowing that side they would relentlessly attack it and make it seem like some kind of “maga kill simulator” or w/e.

Unironically this. And gold of course. Some things never change. Humans shelling out for shiny being one of them.

Consider the worst comes to worst, you won’t have electricity, let alone internet connectivity. Good luck selling any crypto in those circumstances.

Nope, ye olde Gold & Silver are the way to go. Silver for fractional trades, gold for larger ones. Can’t beat a couple thousand years of history.

Wish I could help. I can commiserate though. 10 years in the same position without a promotion. Can’t get the benefits I’ve built up elsewhere, feel trapped in a gilded cage.

You are more than your job though, and if other people are assholes, knowingly or not, that doesn’t reflect on your worth in any way. It only underscores the fact you don’t jive with those kind of people. I’d consider that an accolade of sorts.

Lol that assclown. Having it so made and blowing it all up for… you know.

Would explain my excessive base-building and decorating in Subnautica.

Imagine being one of the wealthiest people in the world and still having to suck septagenerian donkey dick in order to be “allowed” to do what you want with all your wealth and power.
