Yeah. Not sure what it is. It somehow feels more laggy, and for some games I struggle to read what's on the screen sometimes. Plus there's obviously other family members that want to use the TV most of the time. The steam deck really has been the only way I still do any gaming.
I still have mine too, but I never played too much with it because I just can't do the 'play on the couch' thing or whatever. I was always a keyboard+mouse person. Playing on the steam deck does work for me somehow tho.
Yep, if history is any guide, Democrats, if they ever get back in power, will want to look forward, not back. They've done that with Nixon, Reagan, the GFC, torture, Trump's whole ass coup, ...
It just means that the exact same characters will just try again.
I mean, the thing is that a donation to philanthropy is tax deductible, so even if you control the charity 100%, it counts. Instead of paying taxes, you're just paying yourself. And once it's in that charity, you can use that money for any charitable cause, even if that cause benefits the non-charitable side of your portfolio. This means that you can
pay for your own PR
use the charity money to buy a bunch of medicine to eradicate some disease, while you have investments in the pharma company that will provide said medicine
donate to academia to steer research goals and then become a early investor in any spinoff companies that result from that
donate to a charity run by a politician/other rich person to curry favour
It's not a coincidence he's become richer despite 'donating his wealth'.
It's doable if you're not constantly changing the plans. The issue appears to be that he keeps changing things about it. Every plan or rendering they've released is different and it keeps getting bigger with each iteration.
I wonder what a demolition crew does if you don't pay them. Other tradies will typically just rip out their work, but it's not like a demo crew can easily rebuild something they tore down.
I'm actually amazed how he keeps finding new suckers after decades of doing it in the private sector and almost 10 years of doing it as President. The only ones that really came out ahead are the criminals that bought their pardons. Everyone else gets screwed one way or another.
Probably attached it in the CMS and didn't upload the file as private even if the page itself was, or something like that. Users mess up permissions all the time.
Manpower is a bigger issue for Ukraine compared to Russia. Ukraine is at least not doing human wave tactics and doing more to keep their guys alive, but Russia can last longer in that aspect as well.
I do agree that Putin can't stop the war for anything less than complete victory, otherwise people will start asking questions about why this was necessary as you said.
Yeah, they are still able to trade with China (which happens to make everything anyway), and as opposed to most countries, Russia can still draw on a lot of the remaining Soviet infrastructure that was specifically built because Russia needed to be self sufficient during the cold war.
As long as Putin can manage to remain in power Russia can keep this war going.
