Ich verstehe einige diese Worte.

(Be nice please, my German is bad and I'm learning :p )

It's a British idiom used to show endearment. Don't worry about not knowing it, I'm near native in English and didn't know.

There's been lots of great movies lately, they've just drowned in the massive marketing budgets of copy pasta bullshit sequels.

What I do instead is mostly rely on specific directors that I know produce high quality content like Guy Ritchie, Wes Anderson, and Christopher Nolan (especially work done together with his brother, Jonathan Nolan, but IIRC Jonathan mostly focused on series like Westworld and Fallout after Interstellar).

Another thing to look for is A24 movies. They're quite unique and usually pushes the limits with story telling. Their older stuff, while great, might though not be everyone's cup of tea but it seems like they're trying to mellow it a bit out lately to cater to a larger audience.

Having healthy competition is a good thing and I've wished for a competitor to Steam for a long time until one day the monkey's paw curled and we got Epic Game Store. To sum it up:

• Epic actively tries to introduce exclusivity deals to PC, something that goes very much against the nature of the platform. It is something we're supposed to be above on PC and let console players deal with. PC gamers simply don't want fragmentation in the market. We hate all the different shitty launchers publishers are making for the same reason too.
• Epic has a very hostile attitude towards Linux. Their anti cheat for example by default detects the mere fact of using Linux as a hack. For a long time if their anti cheat was included it was an absolute no go on Linux. Their store also works like crap on Linux, if at all.
• EGS lacks necessities for then to call themselves a good store like reviews, good support and refund policies, ease of mod support, wishlists, etc.
• Their UI is just plain bad.

But the main point is the first one. If they bothered making a good store they wouldn't need to make most of PC gamers angry by introducing exclusivity deals, but they can't be bothered to do that, so they go for hostile competition instead at the detriment of the customers.

Even worse. 90 in old Danish is "halvfemsindstyve" but it is rarely used today. The "sinds" part is derived from "sinde" means multiplied with but it is not in use in Danish anymore. That leaves halvfems, meaning half to the five (which is not used alone anymore) and tyve meaning twenty (as it still does).

We are in current Danish shortening it to halvfems which actually just means "half to the five" in old Danish (2.5) to say 90. 92 is then "tooghalvfems" (two and half to the five, or 2+2.5). The "sindstyve" part (multiplied with 20) fell out of favour.

So we at least have some rules to the madness. Were just not following them at all anymore.

I can't possibly think of any way that could backfire.

Thailand is set to legalise same sex marriage and Norway is set to ban ICE cars, both in 2025.

There's probably a lot of these small wins happening around the world. Let's keep an eye out for them so we don't lose all our hope for a better future.
