Just to spin this a bit further, if we are living in a simulation, does it have a purpose? Sometimes I ask myself if the purpose of such a simulation for humanity could be to see how long it takes from the big bang to the creation of artificial life. Maybe our purpose is to create such artificial life that can travel to the stars, because as humans we are not really fit to do that. Maybe we are a mere step on the ladder of our universe’s purpose.
What does this locking do? Where I live every online vendor offers to pay by installments which addresses the issue that people could not afford the upfront price, why do the phones have to be locked in the US?
But is it a fake position if you intend to fill it with a foreign worker?
Does the fine have to be paid from profits made in California? If not I don’t see why this is relevant, other than semantics.
And then you also have different meanings depending on pronunciation, here some examples:

As a native German speaker, I really dislike the formality levels and hope someday everyone uses the informal level. In a big company it’s really annoying to start with the formal level and then awkwardly switching to informal level when contacting someone for the first time.
I am not an expert either, but maybe by something like this? Maybe we see two images of the same galaxy but nothing obstructing our view to explain the gravitational lensing, so maybe it’s topological defects?
I don’t follow American politics very closely, who is this RFK guy and between Biden and Trump, how bad is he?
For now you can use RedReader to circumvent their app.
I don’t have a horse in this race, but it’s the perfect counterpart to companies like EA Games where unfinished games come out because developers had to meet an arbitrary deadline. Star Citizen is right at the other end of the spectrum and you see what happens when there are no deadlines and the product is never finished. I would love to play it, but my backlog is so big that I can afford to be a patient gamer. I have about 35 years until I retire and if version 1.0 is out by then I’ll be happy to take another look.
In Sync I see a garbage bin + a person with a ban symbol in the right corner. But I can still see their comment, do you by chance know what these symbols indicate?
No, here in Germany the state pays your rent and gives you a monthly allowance (Bürgergeld) after you are out of job for more than a year so you don’t end up homeless (in the first year you get 65% of your average monthly salary from the 12 months before that per month). We also have homeless people, but in principle everyone is entitled to it.
I hope I can now play all buzz games, some of them had the problem that the blue button was continuously pressed and you couldn’t play the game.
