If they don’t comply that is going to play into Putin’s hands and piss off Europe.
How so?
I personally doubt Trump will comply either. Israel has deep pockets and Trump loves money. But guessing what Trump would do is a very difficult thing to do to be fair. I could be wrong on this.
Layovers? For the PM of Israel? What is he? Lower-middle class?
America is not part of the ICC, they have no legal obligation to comply. Nor would they. Betraying or abandoning one of their assets would not be a good look.
I’m actually surprised. I didn’t think they would actually do it. It’s unlikely to lead anywhere, but this is still a big step.
Because the game was incredibly successful and other companies tried to copy the formula. The same reason a lot of companies tried to copy Fortnite or League of Legends.
The toe gets re-used.
That does not reassure me in the slightest lol.
In mid-October, residents of Dawson City – notorious as the birthplace of the “Sour Toe” cocktail which included a mummified human toe
Wat?
No other gaming platform has the userbase Steam does. I see this more of a numbers thing than anything else. If 2% of the gaming population is far right then it’s going to be much more noticeable when one company has a userbase of ~100million. I’d be very surprised if the other companies like Ubisoft and EA have this kind of content moderation.
What industry standards is he talking about here? Steam code of conduct only says you must engage in lawful behaviour. There’s no American law banning far-right symbols. There’s no doubt Steam has a content moderation issue and I would love to see those things go as well. But unless there’s some kind of law then Valve is just going to ignore this problem like they’ve done in the past.
I guess Ukraine is making a final push before Trump takes office. It’s a sad and haunting reality to face.
It’s a propaganda piece. It even reads like one.
They can’t even hold Israel back currently.
The best thing about online games is the opportunity for Mats, and others like him, to be who he truly was. Once you find the right group of people, it doesn’t what color your skin is, what’s between your legs, what your physical advantages/disadvantages are. All that mattered was your character and your determination. And you aren’t limited by your geography even. You can interact with people all over the world and enrich yourself along with enriching themselves by providing a brief glimpse in each others lives. It’s actually a beautiful thing how many stories there are like this one there are out there. Games like WoW enabled Mats to be the person who he truly was before he passed. It’s a bittersweet moment for the parents. I hope it gives them the closure they need.
So POTUS was comfortable with attacking hoping it would force a ceasefire? They didn’t stop to think that maybe warlord Netanyahu has no interest in a ceasefire? Something is fishy here.
A flight from Israel to the US is mainly over the Atlantic. Not sure if diverting it to a nearby country is an option.
