Here is the article discussing the journalist. Reuters made an incredible effort to show, with evidence, how directly targeted the journalist group was.

The person you are replying to did not offer any support to the horrible things done in that area.

...unless you believe their statement was supportive of the actions done by Israel.

Gerrymandering is complicated. Simplest version; it involves diluting the vote of smaller groups who likely would have been able to vote in representation into the government if not for the interference.

This is done by breaking up that voting group among groups that favor the manipulating party.

The wiki on it does a good job of providing the details.

You are right that anything done can be undone BUT it requires the same level of governmental control. And if you can gerrymander the heck out of the voters, you can pass almost anything.

Note: it is not a purely 'popular' vote. That would bypass gerrymandering. Gerrymandering depends on block voting.

Proton Pass has a 2fa option built in

Game wise: started with Pathfinder package in 2016, origin315. Now I'm quite a bit further in... I like the ships that have utility vs combat ships... And there are quite a few of those.

Personally: sold a house, moved to apartment, bought a house, moved cities twice, made 3 career changes and in a fairly decent spot now. Very different from where I was.

I definitely want that 'realistic audio'

Server meshing proof of concept is a huge hurdle they at least demonstrated they can do it on small scale.

Totally on board with those who were not impressed. Expectations need to be tempered with everything CIG.

As an engineer working with power distribution, I actually liked the little FTL like system they are going with. I have feeling highly experienced engineering players will be able to recover highly damaged systems that normally are behind repair, this making them good for salvage teams too.

Relevant quote from the article for the critical info to save some the read:

But the problem with using aeration as a proxy for proof of life, many medical experts argue, is that babies don’t have to take a breath for air to enter their lungs. Air can be introduced when the baby’s chest is compressed as it squeezes through the birth canal. If there is an attempt to resuscitate a stillborn baby, that pressure can inflate the lungs. And if a body has started to decompose, gases from that process can cause the lungs to float in water. Even the ordinary handling of a stillborn baby can allow air to enter the lungs.

Thank you for that 😅 I was indeed a little confused at the title.
