German

Very close, alas no cookie. In German, that would be "Vater". However, "Vader" exists with that meaning in Dutch.

"Memory list blown" was my constant companion 😫

Don't hate me, but I like Cyberpunk 2077. It may have had its problems at launch, and I heard people were promised all kinds of stuff that was not delived, or was delivered only much later, but I never listen to hype anyway. I've played this for many hours. There are great mods for that game that make it even better, and it has such cool characters, such a fascinating world, good music, great design, the combat is fun... I love it.

When was the last RPG they released that didn’t require tons of patching?

I would have said "that terminator game they made in the early 90s" but that is hardly an RPG :)

"Yes, the needs in this area will be a problem, but I'd rather bet on AI solving the problem than constraining it and having the problem," Schmidt said.

We do not require an AI to tell us what the problem is, or the solution. We know the solution. We just have to apply it. And part of that is stripping people like Mr. Schmidt of the power to cause more harm to all of us.

A slight misunderstanding, perhaps. I meant why should Google try, as right now Firefox is no threat to them.

Have you looked at the market share of Firefox lately? Why even waste time on that?

No problem, I have got some prime rust inhibitor to sell you. Easy to apply and long lasting. Shame though, newly manufactured vehicles should not already rust.

A transition that, judging from these here two pictures, could not be more extreme. You are almost unrecognizable! And to think you had all this beauty inside of you all along, just waiting to be freed. Congratulations and enjoy!

The European commision sure wanted TTIP to happen, so there's that.

because they sell cars to China

For how much longer? Can German cars even still compete with the Chinese, or has that ship sailed already? Come, buy the best engineering of yesteryear! Yay!

China heavily subsidizes EV manufacturers (and production in general), plus they have cheaper environmental and labour standards… it’s not like there’s a fair market EU companies can compete in without some sort of handicap.

Hah. Volkswagen is in trouble right now because they fucked up the transition to electric cars completly. What do you think will happen now? That's right, we the (German) people will have to save them now, with our money. Basically the same shit as a subsidy, just later in the process. Kinda like what the Chinese do, just the really stupid way.

Oh, and of course, it will be everybody's fault but their own.
