Hasn't Trump and the passive support/ acceptance of the Republican Party - broken "the System" ?

But could high income people just claim to be living in Backwater, Florida and just pay floridian state income tax instead of californian income tax?

It was i ntended for Pächter Factor. Sorry cant provide a link (chtome just shows german sites) but Eurogamer and IGN reported that next xbox should have Epic Store out of the box.

You guys don't have a statewide or national personal identification document/ card? Dont You have to register your "official" place of residence neither?

Hi @michaelpachter.bsky.social what may be the rational for Microsoft to open the Xbox enviroment to other stores like Epic or Steam?

That brought back memories-thanks!

Made me think - even post Trump what will become of the "city on the hill"...

Leaves the question are we being boiled...

Naah next will go to PM of Greenland or Denmark or something similar :-)

Get well!!

Too dark...

Yep I wouldn't count that and I did not understand why Dumbo the Prssident never got any blame for the lack of preparation (he even met with the Taliban at Camp David etc.)

"Immerwahr" = allways true (german) :-) so I would assume its a pseudonym...

Not trying to be a "Richard" - but which war?

Its nuts...

They asked once did u miss it?

It's just a tale to tell his surporters and to maybe scam some money from the oil industry.

Still worried about the china(ceramics) that will be gone after the stupids are done.
But it will be interesting to see how the second term will be processed historically and by the justice system.

Hi Michael,
assuming next Gens consoles will be a very premium product (+ €/$ 1000) - will the current gen become the "tech-floor" for the foreseeable future? - as I doubt that Sony/MS should/will exclude a majority of their current user base.
Happy Holidays!

I think only one didn't??

Too dark...

After a pardon for Maxwell and all photographic evidence against DJT will be claimed to be AI...

Hi Michael,

starting with the obvious:

So EA gets bought...

Technically those are "plain" crimes.

It's nuts

I am worried that even a Dem President might have Problems once this 15% generell import tax is established, as the loss in the fed budget has to be substituted and the really smart people on both sides might then realize it's a tax increase!!

Small government/ free market Rep. spinning in their graves. This and the export tax on Nvidia is truly crazy. But the 15% import tax is here to stay - I Wonder how strong the effect on the global economy will be and how much harm will come from taking away the "innovation pressure" on US industry..

It's the problem with niche journalism like sports, cars or games - the writer may be to close to the "flame" and might not even know it. (And yes "influencers" are even worse).

They always sound like pre school schoolyard "tough guys". Btw. who will be paying for this "show of force" in DC? It's sad that with a little more funds for social services much more could be achieved...
