Nothing you said inferred credibility unto Russian sources, I just wanted to add my take on the bigger picture.

Which is, that Ukrainian reporting is probably not 100% correct and there probably are inflations somewhere (like you said), it is still bound to reality, while Russian reporting lost its touch with reality on day one.

I guess its a knee jerk reaction to all the tankies defending russia lol

At least what Ukraine is claiming is somewhat based in reality compared to what russia claims.

According to russian sources, russia has destroyed some vehicle and plane types in higher numbers than ukraine ever had, yet Ukraine still has some.

Weird how that works.

Bad Management and upper level decision makers probably don’t help either.

Here in Germany the forum culture is still somewhat alive, social media did take a big cut though.

My family is upper middle class, although my mom did struggle financially for a few years. I went to school in a poorer neighborhood, so I do have some friends with less money, I have some friends with parents who make about as much as mine, but I dont have any friends with really rich families, although I was sort of friends with one who went to vocational school with me.

It does help to understand just how much it sucks to have no money, so yes.

Yeah, I wouldn’t classify myself as rich, just middle class and I do some of those things, my mom and her boyfriend could do all of those things and I would not classify them as rich either, just upper middle class.

The actually rich people buy stuff that is so expensive that I couldn’t afford it, even if I saved for years, and the price is mostly that high so they can show their rich friends just how rich they are.

I live in Germany, the definition of middle class might be different in other countries, though.

Only put a tax on vacant homes where there is an active housing crisis, rural areas should be excluded

Except Steam never deletes games that you already own or takes them away from you for other reasons.

Yes, they could do that in the future but its the one company where that is unlikely.

That sign looks too much like the sign for the “verkehrsberuhigter Bereich” sign in in my opinion.

The thought that I might eventuelly find someone who I can share my life with and I would share hers.

As a man its even worse, most of the time I dont even get a response when I write something to a match. Its also hilarious, I have never had a woman write me first either (except from a girl from east asia who was probably looking for a sugar daddy or something like that).

And no, I dont write anything insulting like you get, although its probably also not 100% normal, being that I am also ASD and ADHD.

I would send him the money if he cared for you as a child and not abused you, and you can afford to send it to him and he really needs it.

Yeah, thats how it is in Germany, although they may not have a house, they will most of the time get enough pensions to afford their daily lives.

I am an adult, but my mother would rather give me money than the other way around, but my parents are also upper middle class.

But if my parents ever needed money to survive I would support them, its just unlikely to happen.

This isnt about the official servers being online forever, this is about being able to host your own server without having to crack the game in weird ways.

That isnt without risks itself and it might not have been practically possible in some cases.

Would you desert if your family gets sent to a concentration camp when the army finds out?

Well, during the war ukraine has no choice but to kill the russian soldiers if they want to win.

But I think that ukraine treats POW fairly well and if the war ends they probably wouldnt force them to work in Gulag conditions.

Just because they were soldiers doesnt mean they were nazis. A lot of them were drafted and at the end of the war even teenagers were sent to the frontline because all the other young men were already fighting or dead.

If a soldier was part of the SS or SA, he was a nazi.

It is likely that we humans or our ancestors were responsible for the extinction of most of the megafauna around the world, so we would only be undoing our own damage I guess.

We will never live in an ideal world, we can only approach it.

So, yeah, I wasnt referring to reality.

Change it out for a lack of positive perspective for the future and you might even be right.

Thats maybe why the empty promises work to begin with.
