State subsidies and a huge protected home market.
But to be fair, they really made the most of it. So absolutely also talent.

Yeah farming or mining whatever you can do.
They sell everything for real money, complete accounts with upgraded characters, or rare items or whatever has value in a game.

Interesting. How was this data extracted?
AFAIK Linux is not doing well in China, and China has been known to skew the Steam stats a lot before. China uses bots heavily on Steam for mining in games.
Anyways it's cool that we can see Linux is doing well on Steam now, despite influential factors like China.

It would be interesting to see the amount of purchases made on Linux vs other operating systems. I think that's the number that counts more than anything else.

could all just as well come from an autocracy.

Isn't it?

[–] Buffalox@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Maybe read again, 14 states have 16 year as the age of consent.
Where does it say 14 year? The part you quote CLEARLY says STATES!!

[–] Buffalox@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

WTF? And where is 14 years state law? That's a slippery slope argument.

[–] Buffalox@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Except the supreme court is breaking with many decades of legal practice.
I'd argue the current supreme court has been stacked to follow a political agenda over upholding the law. Which makes the supreme court itself illegal in their practice of the law.
Which is why it is insane that Americans have kept allowing this since George Bush! To a point where the system now is completely broken.

Yes

OK that's really enough said.

I was interested in girls my age +/- one year

As are most at that age, except it would have to be +, because if you go minus 1 at 16, it's illegal! But you do not present any real argument only your opinion.

But really that wasn't what I meant at all, what I was referring to was the ability to decide for yourself at the age of 16. Which most countries find you can.

Considering he is above the age of consent it is obviously NOT pedophilia.
If she had been a neighbor it would be legal. The reason it isn't is because she is a figure of authority. Which technically from a legal perspective makes it rape.
In 14 US states it is actually legal!!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_consent
Are you really saying 14 states have legalized pedophilia?
Do you even remember how it is to be 16?

My sister has been happily married to her husband who is 15 years older than her for 30+ years, are you saying my brother in law is a pedophile because of the age difference?

You are judgemental and pushing your norms on other people. And it's disgusting you have so many upvotes!

I had decided to resign from this debate, but some of the comments here, like yours are just so far beyond what lawmakers have decided in by far the most countries it's insane. Are you also considering LGBT immoral?

It's wrong yes, but the term pedo should be reserved for when it's justified, which it isn't here.

Considering I linked the info from wikipedia, this must be the stupidest comment in this thread.
Age of a consent is a common thing in all countries, but the age is different.

The article says Mac sales are declining too.
Apparently most of the decline is people that are simply ditching their PC because they don't need it anymore.

 

The main motorist interest group in Denmark strongly suggest people who own a Tesla model 3 or model Y have their cars safety checked before warranty expires.

Loosely translated:
Among the problems are play in the steering wheel, and bad suspension.

These problems are normally only seen on way older cars with heavy mileage. These problems are worrying because these parts impact the safety of the car.

Tesla however is claiming if the play is within the limits of the service manual, they will not have an impact on safety. "We design our vehicles so they exceed safety regulations." literal translation!
/translation summary

Lately newer cars from Tesla have failed 25-30% legally mandatory inspections, and Tesla is spewing bullshit about it!
It's not up to Tesla to decide safety standards. and failing to such high degrees right after warranty, is definitely not exceeding safety standards!

I'm stressing the European parts, because my post from yesterday about Russian losses in Ukraine war was removed as "off topic".
Despite this sub is about:
News and information from Europe 🇪🇺

 

Den Europæiske Menneskerettighedsdomstol har dømt Danmark, efter en mand afgik ved døden i en benlås i Kolding Arrest i 2011.

 

Merz pointed out that the restrictions have been lifted not only on German weapons.

"There are no longer any restrictions on the range of weapons delivered to Ukraine, neither by the UK, France, nor us. There are no restrictions by the US either,"

 

Putin is getting more and more desperate. As he is running out of options, he is just increasing the meat waves!

 

Regarding people questioning durability:

https://thetechylife.com/how-long-do-byd-batteries-last/

BYD batteries are designed to last for 3000 to 5000 charge cycles

If a car has 400 km range on a charge and can handle 3000 cycles, that's 1.2 million kilometers.
While we don't know for sure, there has been nothing to indicate BYD should have compromised on that.

In Denmark when a car reaches 6 years, it needs to be safety checked to be used on the roads. After that it's every 2nd years.

Tesla model 3 managed these safety checks extremely poorly, with 3 times the average failure rate.

In total, 1,392 errors were found on the Tesla model, which is three times as many compared to the other electric cars.
