@retoor I think you're small enough to walk a mile in their shoes ;P maybe it's a place to visit

@retoor In certain places they did just indirectly, e.g. If you were medical for instance they could require it, I can't remember what country though. Some places made it the one piece of medical employers were allowed to ask as well

@retoor OMG you breathe, poser ;P

@retoor It's his job description... Whether he slants it to be factual or biased, I do not know

@Lensflare

> Maybe, but definitely not always and even then, wanting to improve the country doesn‘t mean actually improving the country.

Agreed, I'm just saying patriotism isn't bad, there are things I hate about the countries I'm part of and want it to improve. Some would call that patriotic (you can be patriotic to a country you're not born in IMO), but I just want a better env.

>Throwing money at a sports club shouldn‘t contribute to their success.

>If it did, it wouldn‘t be about sports but about money.

Training equipment, coaches, dietitians to name a few - those cost money, and they make a ginormous difference. So yes it's about the money

@tosensei

> but you are mistaken. nobody hated them. especially not for what they _were_ - not for things they could not change.

That cuts both ways though, there were also people saying everyone must get vaxed, or they will kill us all and eventually (and predictably) covid just became weaker over time

Also, there were definitely people who hated people who objected and who just don't agree with mainstream X - in a lot of countries you could get locked up just for asking questions around it, even professionals in the field,

@Lensflare (non-toxic) patriotism does make you want to improve your country, though.

I'm not a sports-ball fan, but saying the fans don't contribute anything is a bit simplistic. Those players need to get their millions somehow

@retoor You want hypotheek, well, you're not the right colour...

@retoor Yeah, there is one of those rules, like never have more than 30 seconds of dead air. That's why for good streamers they are either talking or something is happening on screen

@retoor I've seen people do good with just explaining it afterwards and just "re-implement" it on screen for illustrative purposes

@retoor No worse, banks

@retoor It is, my uncle is one ;P (kinda, he needs to make sure that it doesn't learn too much about "statistics")

@retoor C3 looks pretty cool

@retoor I can believe that little miss hall monitor ;P Is it still Buffon or just genericos? You've made the place a lot better, and it's interesting to hear how you've managed it :D

And more probably

And the only thing want to do is quick save/load

Hey that's 3 things, that means it's a coincidence ;P

@D-4got10-01 Weak ;P we used to do LANs for 72+ hours

@MammaNeedHummus In my opinion, opinions can sprout from the ground fully formed and ready to be picked up. You might not even know you had the opinion until asked, but opinions are like assholes as they say

And any info you can find on it are youtube videos that are running a somewhat different version

@kiki How much have you lost so far?

@AlgoRythm https://theguardian.com/games/...

@TheBeardedOne Honestly, they should pay the equivalent of severance since you had to quit a job to start there.

@AlgoRythm You underestimate where it's used. It's not a complete business replacer, but it cuts a large amount of the skill floor in many markets. There is a reason there are industries in the USA protesting its usage so they can keep their job

@AlgoRythm We're just trying to share the fun we've been having

@retoor In english it's yo-yo. And yeah everyone has an opinion about everything.

@D-4got10-01 The movie is alright, I enjoyed it enough at least. I think I watched it in an airplane though 😅

@retoor Haha, maybe you can make the discord replacement for dev projects. I hate how all that info is lost in "just join us on discord"

@12bitfloat I don't either, there aren't many people who make it through though, you'll be cringing very hard (for the character).

But if you are going to watch the 1 a year that you do watch it is very good

@12bitfloat I assume you've seen watamote?
