I think he achieved a lot, and made a huge difference to many people. He can’t change the whole world, but naking a personal sacrifice to bring abuse to light is a good thing.

I sometimes make jokes about Nazis fleeing to Argentina but I really dont know much about the country’s culture.

The story says this happened in Argentina.

I mostly mean before college. There is definitely a path for american soccer players, but its not in America like you say. World class players still “retire” and then go play in America, which says a lot.

American athletes generally are multi-sport players when younger, and tend to follow the best money. The players who have the best chance at being star soccer players simply end up playing football or basketball. The sport being less popular than at least 4 other sports in America is a huge problem for developing homegrown talent for the national team.

Referees can call penalty kicks, which are usually an almost guaranteed goal. They can also kick players out of the game, putting the non-american team at a player disadvantage.

You won’t be able to tell if Claude is giving you good answers or not. You’d have to have someone who knows about this stuff check it for you, but at that point you should just have that person help you.

I also think its strange to tell them that the south can’t leave the nation. I dont see why its a good idea to force them to stay.

Sort of comes off as an old boomer just saying stuff off the top of their head. I’m sure its not an actual legal declaration. I guess I agree then, they are fools.

I literally have one running right now. Its unauthenticated as well.

Sure, but theres a wide range of usage for an unnoficial minecraft server. Some servers make quite a lot of money via gambling mechanics.

The main reason Mojang or Minecraft care is because they need to protect the games image as a safe thing for kids to play. If it was a mature rated game, none of this would even matter.

Sure, and WoW ships with a file that directs you to the official servers, that you can change to any IP address.

Besides all that I’m simply explaining the companies position. If you want to pirate the game feel free. If you want to allow “offline” accounts to join your server, feel free to do that too.

The java version authenticates with Microsoft and Mojang to prove valid ownership and to make sure parental controls are applied to accounts. I believe they are talking about unauthenticated servers that allow pirated accounts to join. Its similar to private MMO servers that are setup in a similar way. Same files, used unsupervised.

Generally this type of thing only matters with games that kids play, because people tend to try to protect kids. Games explicitly for adults seem to be able to be more free with what they allow.

The water here comes out super cold from the hose too, that sounds like a fantastic way to keep cool!

Sounds slightly pyramid shaped.

Linux doesn’t even require installation, they use LiveCDs that you can use as temporary OS’s. They are also used to permanently install them if you’d like to do that.

There’s a guy at my local library that brings his own OS to use on the public computers, and just saves stuff on removable storage.

Shitty rich people have sued most public schools into absurd levels of restriction. Its a nightmare when idiots are allowed to pay to be told they are legally correct by another idiot in a black robe.

I’m at a point in my life where I just won’t use a service or company if it won’t work on my devices. Thats not likely to be a luxury everyone has so I know its not for everyone.

He cited an American visiting the UK as an example of an American learning about Europe. I simply disagree that you can learn much about Europe from visiting the UK.

They seem like quite the outlier then if you really insist on including them.

If its just a geographic thing you mean, then sure its in Europe.
