Go figure. Probably they are going to monitor traffic somehow to see if you visit certain websites and if you stay on them for too long, they flag you as a pirate. I'm not concerned, I browse the internet through a vpn.

In Italy they are aiming to block not only soccer streams but any audiovisual content. And they are threatening to fine people using the sites, unlike before, when only the site owners could be prosecuted.

The enemy of my enemy is not necesarily my friend. However, when two of my enemies start killing each other, I can't help but to cheer for both of them, hoping for one to kill the other.

And you assumed it was me because... why? Lol mate, I haven't reported you

[–] AbsolutelyNotAVelociraptor 1 points 4 days ago

Yeah, that's been me since I finished Dawntrail. Not considering the fact that they homogeneized all classes so much that most jobs feel like reskins of another one, the content for someone who doesn't have the time for hardcore content is basically... nothing. Sure, yeah, we have the occult crescent now, and it's fun. But I think I just grew out of 14. I don't care about the game anymore. I feel like square is focusing everything on the hardcore players forgetting their main playerbase. Idk, I tried the crescent but the drive to keep playing isn't there anymore. I'm tired of square's bullshit.

Isn't that the whole point of it?

That's why we can have a woman as the pope, right?

Yeah they... are not good parents. They always were more interested in drinking than in growing their kids. And they both try to make you feel miserable because they now have understood that they lost their children due to their own selfishness and ego.

When he tried to make me feel bad for almost dying in another country, it was the thing that snapped and made me cut the already thin ties completely.

Apparently, going from europe to america buying the ticket at last minute is very expensive, they also had to add the stay in the hotel for one of them. For what he said, he spent around 9k euro on that trip (odd, i paid around 1500 for two people). Still, he threw that to me to make me feel guilty of their shitty spending habits. It was some years ago, when our relationship was already ice cold.

They both are shitty parents and now they wonder why I don't talk to them.

Depends. If we take from when I was a kid? Probably something in the hundreds of thousands or even in the millions. I pirated pretty much everything because I lived in a very small town with no electronics shop so I couldn't even buy games.

However, in the last 8 years or so? I find that I rarely pirate games anymore. Bundles, steam sales and refunds allow me to buy without worrying about liking the game.

Music is also something I don't pirate anymore. I'm not one needing thousands of tracks, but rather a small and select collection. So I occasionally buy from bandcamp or other services so I can keep the music I want in my jellyfin server.

Films and shows are a different thing tho. At home whave netflix, so for most stuff we go there, but if something's not there, I'll pirate it. So... idk but... some hundreds? I'm not a fan of movies and most of the stuff I watch (which is not a lot) is on netflix.

letting aside the fact that this looks as a false flag attack, they are not doing any favour to their voter base. Zionism and judaism are not the same thing, no matter how much these assholes repeat it.

Maybe, just maybe, if Israel stopped their genocide in Gaza, people would stop hating Israel.

I am perfectly fine with jews and their religion. But as any normal person would, I'm not ok with a bunch of nazis commiting a genocide. If being against genocide is, for them, being antisemitic, then so be it. I want to be in the right side of history and their words have no meaning anymore. Fuck israel.

I went on a trip to another country. Unfortunately, I had an accident (involving a fucking hurricane) that almost killed me.I had insurance so they covered all the medical expenses, including tickets and accomdations for one of my parents (aka: one of them could come free of charge). They decided that it was a good opportunity to visit the country since one was coming "for free" and they only had to pay for the other one.

Years later, my father told me that they are still paying the debt for the money they spent "because of me" when I had that accident so it was my fault they were in debt.

 

MILWAUKEE (AP) — The FBI on Friday arrested a Wisconsin county judge accused of helping a man avoid immigration enforcement, Director Kash Patel said.

Patel made the announcement in a post on X and said his office believes Judge Hannah Dugan “intentionally misdirected federal agents away from the subject to be arrested in her courthouse.”

Apparently, talking about respecting human rights is "imperialism apologia".
