I seriously cannot vote for a party which slogan was/is:

Vote no. Vote SP. (In Dutch this rhymes)

Really, with that slogan it just is a lost vote. They're against everything. Or so it seems. Like Wilders the SP does not want to rule. Because ruling in NL means making a compromise. And they can't. They wont do it. And thats been proven during the Roemer years. They could rule.. but didn't. Couldn't risk it. Couldn't compromise.

Like Wilders they want to stand at the sidelines screaming and fuming about everything which is wrong in their eyes. That's the only way how they can legitimise their existence.

It's better to vote for real parties who are not afraid of the Fallout of ruling in NL. Those who accept the probable hit to their popularity because they think the change they can achieve is worth it.

But SP, PVV, JA21, PvdD even GL of old.. they don't really want to rule. And i should also include DENK here. I'm a bit torn about NSC and BBB because they tried to rule but when faced with the harsh reality of being in government and finding those compromises they buckled. I Guess they're finished because what they stand for, while laudable in some ways, just isn't realistic. There are too many farmers in NL. There is too much nitrogen. A small country cannot produce the most pigs in the EU. It's not sustainable.

NSC is build on the promise of being right, doing the right thing. But whats right for you can be very wrong for me...

Anyway, a vote for one of those is a lost vote.

And to add: Whoever thought it a good idea to put Timmermans at the front of the left.. they are out of their minds. He is not charismatic, comes over as your annoying math school teacher you hated and left national politics not because he was so well regarded. There are so many very cool politicians on the left but Timmermans is not one of them. I just can't wrap my head around that one.

Timmermans will lose them (again) the vote. Do something more with Lahlah. Or whoever. As long as its not the failed EU climate pope, Paulus de boskabouter , Timmerfrans or whatever nickname he carries these days.

He is the face of everything which was wrong with the PvdA.

Not that guy but another: No. You? Because Microsoft is a lot of things but walled gardens is something out of Cupertino. Not Redmond.

You can call MS shitty and I would fully concur but a walled gardens it's not.

You don't need ad, Exchange/outlook, m365, entraid. They're nice for most users but you can live without and use other services in their place on any MS platform.

Now, iOS..... Have fun with that.

FBI? not where I live!

(Laughs maniacally in hetero.)

Never. I sold these things long ago and learned quickly back then they are just scams.

You being lucky is an edge case.

It was finished and buggy.. it's now finished, fixed and expanded.

You must have meant wookies.

Eve just fucked around blowing up shit. Like everything Apple.

Wall-e tried to clean the world.

Untill I saw UP. I just broke at that first scene. It's just such a fantastic tale about life and the journey it is.

Up, wall-e, Toy story 1-3 are Pixar prime.

I somewhat got your arguments. I just don't feel the same about current day powertoys. They are not needed, don't add anything useful and don't work in a lot of setups. Current day powertoys are not what powertoys of the past where.

MS being focussed on the wrong shit to soon: well that has been true ever since the company existed. In the end looking back each and every innovation they did was needed but just years too soon and way too rough around the edges. I Guess we'll see the same with ai. Some things will stick and be used by others but refined.

All the things you say are mandatory are a distraction at best. And hog a lot of resources.

Spotlight run: adds nothing except being a slow down. It's not that different from the standard search/run box. It just looks nicer. Way nicer.

Fancy zones: does not work reliable on multi monitor/big monitor setup. Useless in my use case. Has been for several years.

Fie renamer: .... Really? This is a power tot these days?

Screen ruler: i don't need rulers on my desktop, i need them in my apps.

Color picker: same. I do not have any use case for it. This is standard app functionality.

Every time i installed powertoys in the last 4/5 years i shrugged, cursed at Fancy zones for not working in my setup and removing it after a few days.

That's the same usage loop as rainmaker or most stardock tools by the way. Good ideas but fucks up to many things.

The new tabbed shell. (Or not so new anymore these days) Now that is a real powertoy. Or the lnx subsysteem.

If you don't have the time to read a book,watch a movie or play a game you should not start it.

I'm over 50, like you only have a few hours, i have a tremendous backlog of games i just have to play and a family to provide for. (mechwarrior clans is the first one which comes to mind but i have dozens)

But i came back for this event. You miss nothing. Every weapon you can "buy" does not really alter the game or changes anything. The standard liberator is still one of the very best primaries.

So..we say the same thing? The bottle or the materials get reused when there is a deposit?

 

The rebellion, Sync, is dying.

Maybe it didn't sell enough. And maybe you're making more money elsewhere.

That's cool. We, well, I understand. you're not in this because you hate free time, you're in this to make money. I get it.

But if that's the case, let us know, so we can mourn the death of sync and select another client.

 

"The Federal Republic of Germany was an American creation, with the U.S. having shepherded Germany down the path of democracy following World War II. America was Germany’s big brother, and although the relationship was not always free of tension, there was never a doubt about the military support from across the Atlantic. That is now over."

Interesting read.
