The press coverage for Cyberpunk seems to be far worth than what you usually see for games similarly bugged at release, especially for a game with good review on PC. Then again, it's a Polish game from a studio with no American office

That's more than thirty times the average US salary so at least thirty times the average amount of taxes paid by a person - a bit more would still be fair as utility of money decreases quickly past a certain point - and different taxes

But certainly, the UK has been against any kind of concerted efforts by the EU which might go further than the single market for as long as they were a member. They lobbied heavily to be left out of the common agricultural policy and tried

Yes but it's not really easy to make 60-80k in France in the tech industry outside of Paris. I used to be in charge of part a product and lead a small team for a formely state-owned large industrial company in the suburb of Paris and w

I really like the language Microsoft is using regarding the EOL and ESU things. I mean when you think about it Microsoft is doing pretty much the same thing during the two periods. It's just that past a certain point they are sure you

That's completely false. People are not surgeons. The goal is not to maintain a sterile environment. The masks people generally use are not even rated for that. The situation is simple. With airborn virus, people will get contaminated

In this case, I think quoting the introduction to the The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte by Marx is more apt: Hegel says somewhere that great historic facts and personages recur twice. He forgot to add: "Once as tragedy, and ag

No, if you extend, you get 90365. You have to multiply by 12/10.5 but that's low balling because winter months usually have more deaths than summer months. Also deaths are usually reported monthly. I have no idea of how statista g

Ideally, I would like a rolling average of monthly death per capita on a year to smooth out seasonal variation on a suffisently large time span to substract any long-term trend. Sweden publishes enough data to do it actually [1] so I did [2
