It's like floating tabs in Firefox, which I still hate to the bone.

Used it years ago, it's pretty, when it works... but it kept breaking and messing up other things.

It's why you cannot trust polls and the likes in authoritarian states. Even outside of state manipulation of numbers, when people are afraid to actually speak their mind, then it completely invalidates any sort of results you would get from it. If I was living in Russia and some random person, be it on the street, at my door, or over the phone, would ask me my opinion on the war or Putin, you'd sure bet your ass I'd sugarcoat it in a pro Russian way, or at the very least try to avoid speaking to said person at the bare minimum.

And yes, people who said something against the regime on his channel got in trouble before. So Russia is very much aware of his channel and monitoring it, or at least have people watch it and report people they see there.

No, but that doesn't mean we should take their word for it. We're living in an age of disinformation. Sources are important.

A simple “this story is bullshit” is all that’s needed

That's what this is? I don't know what else you see or how your "this story is bullshit" wouldn't amplify it either then.

Fact checking and clarifying fake news is not amplifying it, especially when it is already this widely spread.

The main purpose of the online feature is so that other people can invade your games to gank you. For me that's the epitome of games to avoid.

As far as I know they aren't able to do that, since Taurus would require German military personal on the ground in Ukraine to program them, which is not possible without a NATO or UN mandate, as per the German post war constitution. Also, Ukraine does not have a compatible launch platform for them either.

An easy way to test, and revert, is to just rename the top level folder.

Wait. Germany didn't send any long range weapons, or did I miss something?
