I didn't know that there were countries that required that. Can you give me a few examples?


Most of Eastern Europe, including EU countries. Romania is the one that I know the laws best, police can stop you without any reason and detain you for identification if you don't have an ID on you (and fine you for that).


It looks like dry humor to me.


> dedicated cameras have mainly been innovating in video production rather than stills in the last 5 years.

Well, not Sony. Their mirrorless cameras have gotten much better autofocus and battery life and slightly better ergonomics, usability, speed and weather-sealing, but there has basically been no change in their video capabilities.


Before I introduce a new game, I start by watching a video, reading the rulebook, playing a couple of games against myself, and then practicing and refining a script so I can teach it as effectively as possible. It's a lot of work, but I like working out an optimized rules explanation, and if I'm inviting people over to play my new game, then it seems impolite to waste their time.


Two petabytes, according to PC Gamer.


...Oh. Okay then. I guess that makes sense.

Still would be nice for them to have a ~300 GB download option with a resolution somewhere in between the standard offline mode and full quality, but they're clearly operating at an inordinate scale here...


The game already has an base installation size of 150GB and contains an offline mode that reduces the level of detail.


> It has absolutely nothing to do with pas as in a step.

"Pas" as in the negation originally came from "pas" as in a step, through expressions like "I will not walk another step".


According to NATO's 2018 report, Estonia was one of only six NATO countries (out of 29) that met the goal of dedicating 2% of their GDP to defense. Not that dedicating 100% would stop Russia if they wanted to invade.


The entire French and UK nuclear arsenal raining down on Moscow and St Petersburg is not a deterrent?

Try not talk nonsense on HN.


I think they meant 100% of Estonian budget.


As the current American President has shown, treaties and obligations only go so far. That destruction of trust may be the most lasting damage that he causes.


> High levels of oestrogens in the womb linked to autism

I wonder how this fits with the "extreme male brain theory of autism".


After 30 years in IT, I've never once seen anyone use a Mac for anything business-related, much less programming. That is not an exaggeration. (At my current company, we're using 75% Windows, 25% Linux.)


You seem to be literally saying that harassment is necessary when developing operating systems. Is that your intention?
