And how many people will actually see it? when he releases a video, i get it on my feed. but i have never seen a text post from any of the creators i've subscribed to.

A petition I don't think will do much.

This isn't just any regular change.org petition, that can be ignored. It's an official partition based on EU rules, where EU parliament is forced by law to listen to the initiators and talk about the topic, when it passes.

I think he's talking about all the other shows and movies on the platform, that he doesn't watch

firstly, in the comic, none of the streaming service has the movie, so a site telling him this doesn't change that point.

second, even if one streaming service has that movie, it might not be the one you are subscribed to. so instead of "just watch"ing, you have to make a new subscription on that service and pay for all their content although you just want one movie

thirdly, often it's not a matter of whether or not someone wants to pay, but how much someone is willing to pay. This depends on many factors, which boil down to how much they want to watch the movie and how much they can afford. imo there are two acceptable ways to charge for entertainment: paying once for that particular piece and you get to enjoy it as often/long as you want forever, or you pay a monthly fee and get access to everything for as long as you pay. unfortunately, thanks to the fragmentation of streaming services, option b has become quite expensive and not a lot of people are not willing to spend that much, but they would be willing for a lower price.

That may be true, but that wasn't the point he tried to make. The problem is that netflix used to have everything at a good monthly price and once they dominated the market, enshittification and price hike started, plus all the other companies wanted in on the action, starting their own service.

Now MS is trying to do the same to the PC gaming market.

For motorcycle riding i use calimoto. It has an option to find the most curvy route to your destination. It also works offline, which is great when riding in remote areas with poor cell coverage or foreign countries with expensive roaming conditions.

Also it can track your journey and show elevation, acceleration, speed and lean angle.

Unfortunately it's subscription based now, but i was licky enough to buy it before that, so i basically got lifetime premium account.

One more downside is the shitty search function. even with the exact address copy pasted it almost never finds the location.

I think it's a joke abaut how closely related the countries were, when they started the first 2 WWs (and maybe Hitler being Austrian)

Not out of the box, AFAIK, but there is a plugin. I never got it to work though, because you also need some up-to-date certification file.

How has no one mentioned the tetris theme? Dum dada dum dada dum dada dum dada dum di da da da

Not sure if this is true, but i've been told, when you flush food down the drain or toilet, rats living in the sewer might come looking where that delicious meal came from.

Also many young people are so used to games requiring online connection and being shut down, that they can't imagine a better way.

We don't know how good AFD would be at doing, what they claim. But none of the parties who have been in power over the last 20-30 years have done anything significant to improve the average workers economic status (e.g. make housing affordable, guarantee a reasonable pension, lessen the fear of unemployment, etc.). AFD claims, "if we get rid of the immigrants, everything will be better again" and people are believing it.
