Young men, there’s no need to feel down
I say young men, they have all left the town

was anyone waiting for him to go and say “whoops, all my fault” or what

If that’s true, why have all the other Actions failed?

Cause it’s nominal and “bring underway legislation” is a catch all term. Petitions to democratic parliaments are bullshit, why would any of them care about - as you point out - a single issue thaat 0,22% of the population signed up for?

They might have to have it as a point of order for the next meeting, in which they all decide “nah, no legislation needed, shit’s fine” and be done with it. That’s how most petitions go, anyways. You cannot force a law into existence by petitions.

Does that mean as a US citizen I get to decide EU laws?

No, not how petitions work in the EU. Nominally it means they can force the EU parliament to bring underway legislation concering the topic, albeit there isn’t really a control mechanism for this. But say they do it anyways lest they lose even more credibility, considering games despite having existed for at least 50 years at this point are foreign objects to basically everyone that is the leftovers in the EU Parliament Ubisoft or whatever is gonna send two lobbyists and it ends up at at some sort of EU law that says “under reasonable circumstances video games should have to be playable after the copyright holder abandons service except if it costs them any money”

I didn’t know the NATO is the arbiter of this. I’d’ve figured there’d be something less openly biased towards certain states here

Just being in HR gives you some kind of brainworm but being in HR and posting about it with what seems to be a personal account is more like having a brain shai-hulud

how’s this explain germany, which abstained?

It’s not an improvement over the previous meme but I take any chance I get to post this image

Honestly good litmus test, if you got a Thinkpad that means somebody seems to listen to IT on what to buy which does bode sort of well for a tech job

I do know a few young people are tech/programming wizards but “generally tech savy” people seem to be declining. It’s either you’re really into it or barely know anything outside popular apps.

I feel like we also got a new kind of guy, the tech-forward digital illiterate. They run most of everything.

YMMV on the CDU vis a vis being fascists but I’d argue you can look back at Adenauers “Radikalenerlass” (“Radical Decree” or something) that purported to stop extremists from both sides from holding certain important jobs and somehow managed to find 1000 left wing extremists for every right winger in '70s germany.

Doesn’t matter, judiically. The german parliament approves it, therefore it’s fine.

If North Korea brought this case I’d take a similar double-take and ask questions.

What makes you think Nicaragua is similar to North Korea?

Not even international law, but their own civil laws.

Speaking for germany I’m unsure as to what you’re getting at here on a judicial level. Any arms sale has to be approved by the parliament, as such I don’t see much hope for a civil law suit here.

made me realise that this place is a piece of shit with absolutely zero empathy for anyone.

Is every person the king of england or how do you get to this conclusion?

love to have people in management who cannot for the life of them manage their own workload or inbox. I don’t even know when I last got a response from my manager for anything, I just send it to the void at this point as shit falls apart

wow that sucks, good luck though

it’s “the computer is a magic box that can do anything (customer side)” clashing against “the computer is a magic box that can do anything (IT folks)” and boy do these two seemingly similar views not mesh well

Allthough I swear to god, unless you’re actively developing new tech like LLM or something most everything is a problem of processes and organisation first and foremost and then an IT problem much, much later

Are the Russian people going to be angry at the lack of clown/king related branding?

I point to things like Aunt Jemima or something and tell you I can see how this might seem like it works to the US

Yeah, little online test about it, too, but in the end even that took years and there isn’t really any feasible way to get what you want other than suing the company
