If we are talking about art and not technique the winner of the contest is not inferior to the second place. I would argue it even does a better job at communicating the subject’s emotions.

For all the things the Soviet Union did wrong, education wasn’t one of them.

By companies, do you mean one guy living buying cheap crap from Alibaba and reselling it on Amazon, using a fake company name?

And now you need to replace usb-c with usb-d, unless you just bought an iPhone 30 then you need a thunderstorm cable (modeled after Steve Jobs dick).

Even if it’s not Elon Musk. Do you want to have brain surgery every 2 years to implant a new chip because the old one is obsolete?

Also Operas aren’t necessarily much more expensive than a cinema ticket. Some Opera houses have reasonable prices.

Well, more than half of Stellantis factories are in Europe and have at least an half decent collective working agreement in place. I don’t even want to imagine how bad the contracts for the factories they have in Asia and Africa are though.

There are plenty of progressive Rock and Metal albums that are also supposed to be listened to as a whole.

And people have been playing Ode To Joy on its own long before there were recordings - single instrument renditions of symphonic pieces exist for a reason.

Symphonies still have subdivisions that can stand on their own, so a symphony is more like an album and not a single song. The movements of Beethoven’s 9th Symphony range from slightly more than 10 minutes to slightly more than 20, for example.

The same way any company that has a contract dependent on the other side’s revenue (or the tax services for that matter) does it. If you use Unity you have to report your revenue, and if you are caught lying their lawyers are going to shred you to pieces in court.

It only kicks in after you make a certain revenue with the game (200k USD for Unity Personal and 1Million USD for Unity Pro). So if revenue is 0, it will never kick in.

At very least it transfers all the risks of economical downturns or even operational fuck ups to the workers.

What generation? Gen-Z starts somewhere from the mid-late-1990s and goes to around 2010. The eight console generation, that got rid of the start button came out in 2013. So I would assume that almost all Millennials started playing videogames on a console with a start button, and all Gen Alpha started with options. What other generation would be the cutoff point?

What boomers? Gen Z was the first to mostly grow up without a Start button - and even then, the older ones might still remember the PS3/Xbox 360 Controllers.

The trick with Reagan is to shoot him at the end of his union leader period, in a way that incriminates a conservative group.
