I was about to respond "but that was the Haitian police, wasn't it?" But to be fair I don't think that matters. You are right police was involved and that whole mess will not have led to acceptance of UN troops.

But I'm not sure if the courts are saving people from trouble because the situation in Haiti obviously reached a point where the Haitian police and government are not able to handle that kind of crime rate. Otherwise they wouldn't have asked for outside assistance. And I think the first time they asked was about a year ago.

I would also hope that smart people have thought things through and came to the conclusion that this would be helpful the most likely and did not willy nilly decide that sending troops would be a famous idea. 🀷

I'm not going to deny the shitshow it was last time the UN sent troops to Haiti but here's me naively hoping that this kind of mess doesn't repeat.

On thing I read these days it's a good thing they're sending police officers (who are generally charged to return things to order and peace) and not soldiers (who, generally, are tasked to destroy an enemy).

Granted that's a broad generalisation since I don't believe UN peacekeeping troops are sent to places with the explicit orders to destroy something but I think there is a difference in the general mindset and training between police an military.

So maybe, maybe this will do some good? If Kenya is allowed to send police officers.

His games were never the gods gifts to humankind the Peter made them out to be but they were at least (almost) always novel and interesting.

So I won't hold my breath for what he has in store but I will keep an eye on it.

Damn it. Already spent a bunch of money this sale but I somehow didn't think to get the ATS DLC that I'm missing. Thanks (or damn you?) for reminding me (and making me spend more moves >.< )

There is a Decky Plugin called ProtonDB Badges which links to the games ProtonDB entry and people tend to document the settings that worked for them there. Might be worth a look.

As far as I can tell that plugin is currently not in the Decky Plugin Store because the Dev didn't properly maintain it. Though I've read the developer is working on a new version.

Got myself a steam deck and what do I play on it? Euro Truck Simulator 2. This game, I tell you, it's so incredibly relaxing and doesn't take a lot of brain power so it's great to relax with while sitting on the couch in the evening. 🀷

That actually makes sense but it didn't take that into consideration...
