Definitely the real one, the last sentence is like a signature!

What do you mean with „Everything on there is actually functional“?

If you read your linked articles and surveys you will see, that they’re even arguing against your argument.

Just to quote some stuff:

David Hemenway, who led the Harvard research, argues that the risks of owning a gun outweigh the benefits of having one in the rare case where you might need to defend yourself.

"The average person ... has basically no chance in their lifetime ever to use a gun in self-defense," he tells Here & Now's Robin Young. "But ... every day, they have a chance to use the gun inappropriately. They have a chance, they get angry. They get scared."

"If we don't even have a minimum standard, not for training, but for performance validation for our law enforcement," he says, "how in God's name is anybody going to say, 'Well, just because you have a gun in your pocket, you know how to use it in self-defense?' You don't."

And some of the other stuff seems very biased:

The largest and most comprehensive survey of American gun owners ever conducted suggests that they use firearms in self-defense about 1.7 million times a year. It also confirms that AR-15-style rifles and magazines that hold more than 10 rounds, frequent targets of gun control legislation, are in common use for lawful purposes, which the Supreme Court has said is the test for arms covered by the Second Amendment.

The online survey, which was conducted by Centiment in February and March of 2021, was based on a representative sample of about 54,000 adults, 16,708 of whom were gun owners. Georgetown University political economist William English, who commissioned the survey as part of a book project, presents its major findings in a recent paper available on the Social Science Research Network.

I mean, a survey for owners of guns… Of course if you own a weapon like that, you will tell everyone that you use it for self defense. And probably enough people who say they did that, just lie…

Well, apparently I can’t consume in or around my house, but in the front yard of my grandma would be fine.

This stuff makes me really wonder, how much Americans really believe whatever the rightwings are peddling… On Twitter they’re now peddling all the time this „great replacement“ stuff and that illegal immigrants will vote for Biden(???). Do they really believe that and does a big chunk of Americans believe that?

Where could someone obtain this mysterious knowledge?

It would be funny, if his whole existence wouldn’t be so sad for the world…

Ich wünsche dir das Beste! Super, dass du eine Lösung gefunden hast, die für dich funktioniert. :D

Exactly this. Any employer trying to put private devices into their MDM is totally unprofessional anyway… Most MDMs allow access to the GPS Data and have a remote wiping function, it would be a privacy mess for the employee AND employer.

This looks a lot like these liminal spaces pictures… quite creepy

Yeah, same here. In Germany WhatsApp is extremely dominant. I tried to move to Threema, but only a couple of people are using it in the end, even after discussing the whole Facebook thing. Some people are also on Signal, but again, only a few. In the end, especially for groups, I still have to use WhatsApp.

Just as the title says, everything that wasn’t in the Early Access is still so buggy. Quests not continuing, randomly dying NPCs, characters disappearing in cut scenes (or dancing while there’s a emotional scene…). I am just so annoyed right now, I invested so much time since last week in these characters just so the game can show me from time to time the middlefinger.
