Let's face it. Dude is just finding excuses left right and center. One time they said it was because "easy kernel modification could lead to cheating" this time it's because of "staff shortage" and next time it's because the planets aren't aligned.
When they announced EAC to be compatible with Linux they literally said " ... developers can activate anti-cheat support for Linux via Wine or Proton with just a few clicks in the Epic Online Services Developer Portal." (Source) and they know that the Linux community would likely tinker their way to get it working if they were to allow Wine/Proton on EAC...

Future of American Dream 🏡
To me, a european, those urban areas packed with the same house over and over again always seem so depressing and boring. Is there any variety or does it look like this for kilometers miles?

Austrian parties to begin talks on forming government after far-right win
A short list of things the FPÖ is famous for:
The party fund scandal when then head of party H.C. Strache used 10 000€ party funds to purchase emeralds in "Clash of Clans" (I wish I made that up but I didn't).
Trying to strike a deal with a "Russian Oligarch" to purchase Austrias biggest news outlet "Krone" and turn it into a FPÖ propaganda machine. The "Russian Oligarch" was a bait and high ranking FPÖ politicians (like the mentioned H.C. Strache) had to explain themselves and said they were "having drunk fantasies". It caused the then ÖVP-FPÖ government to collapse.
A song containing the lyrics "Let's go! (which can also mean Release gas! - I wanted to mention that since it gets lost in translation) We'll make it 7 million!". Then minister of inner affairs Herbert Kickl (who is now likely to could become chancellor) reacted not by criticism towards his party, but by criticism towards the "Verfassungsschutz" (Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution) who, according to him, leaked the song. He then ordered a normal police unit, that was meant to arrest drug dealers and gang members, to raid the Verfassungsschutz and they took any evidence for far right extremism linked to the FPÖ.
Now head of party Herbert Kickl is also known for:
Calling the neo nazi group "Identitäre Bewegung" a "project worth supporting".
Claiming that horse deworming medication could treat covid.
Refering to himself as "Volkskanzler" a title also used by Adolf Hitler.
Saying that "politics should be above the law and that the law should not be above politics"
Having friends that donated money to the Christchurch mass killer and that really wanted to "meet him and drink a coffee if he visits Vienna one day".
I bet I have forgotten a lot of shit that has been going on. Let's just say the last few years have been a wild ride in Austrian politics.
Edit: as has been pointed out, Herbert Kickl is not a likely but possible option for chancellor since the ÖVP could form a coalition with the SPÖ and keep Nehammer as chancellor. It was bad wording from my side, I apologize >~<

Oh oh, I've got one too. It's not containing Asbestos but Thorium (or Radium respectively) tho.
"Doramad radioactive toothpaste"
"Creates natural freshness in the mouth!"
"Special biological healing effects by radium rays. A thousand times medically prescribed and recommended."
"What does Doramad do? Through its radioactivity, it increases the defenses of teeth and gums. The cells are charged with a new vigorous life energy, which inhibits bacteria in their destructive ability. Hence the exquisite prevention and healing effect on gum diseases. Polishes enamel to the softest shiny white. Prevents tartar approach. Good foam, new taste, pleasant, mild and refreshing. Use extensively."
Quick disclaimer: The last two quotes can be found on Wikipedia but they are not backed up with sources.

You can choose normal, fancy, or wildcard.
Why choose when you can just randomly mix them

Do we get points for comments and post ? I just downloaded Connect and noticed the points.

Which leads to reposting, karma whoring, karma requirements and "ThAnK yOu FoR aLl ThE uPvOtEs" comments.
Personally I think the aim should be to have fun (inclusive) or enhance your or someone else's knowledge and not to brag about how much internet points you have :')
On the other hand, I sometimes like to get lost in account statistics so I'm also not completely against them as long as one sees them as values only and not as some sort of (dick) comparison.

Whoever wrote this headline has never encountered a passenger train before in their lives
NO WAY! Did they just copy the Siemens Mireo and made it a double decker
It looks even more obvious in the German version of the site where the first picture is literally this one:
Edit:
Now that I have taken a closer look I question if the "Tesla" train is even a double decker or actually the Mireo
Edit 2:
And I am unsure if Yahoo just used a random train as their cover or if this is the Tesla train in question. I am so confused O.o
Edit 3:
Soo it's not a double decker and it is "Tesla's train" sooo... If I was Tesla I'd get back to the drawing board because I doubt Siemens will be happy with what they did here

ESC 2024 in a nutshell:
🇨🇭 The Swiss finally found Nemo, who is non-binary and won by breaking the code and riding a Tagada
🇮🇪 Ireland performed a demon summoning and was awarded 6th by the jury, 6th by the audience and ended up in 6th - 666 intensifies
🇳🇱 The Dutch dude was disqualified for allegedly being an asshole
🇮🇱 Israel did not decapitate Netanyahu on stage and still finished high up in the ranks, sending pro-palestine Twitter users into rage
🇪🇪 We saw Estonian VSauce
They desperately tried to bait the audience with Abba just to show us the worst deep fake in human history and letting some previous ESC winners (including Conchita Wurst) perform Waterloo on stage.
(Did I miss anything?)

Finds auch ziemlich kurios wies im "Unsre Heimat" Pionier Lied darum geht, den Staat und die Umwelt zu schützen - und dann leitet man ungefiltert Industrieabwasser in die Flüsse und vernichtet die Wälder.
