Café crema was the original name for espresso because of the crema it produced. Café crème is the French translation. Espresso became the more popular word.

Now it’s when you make a long black / americano style drink but instead of adding water before / after pulling the shot, you run the full amount of water through a coarser grind when making the espresso.

Americano = water after shot
Long black = water before shot
Café crema = water through shot

Do you normally ignore the bulk of an argument and just go off on a mad tangent to try and win a point?

Does this strategy often work for you?

Librewolf / Waterfox depending on your privacy requirements?

If you believe NATO is simply a puppet of the US, why didn’t Turkey, France or Germany participate in the war in Iraq? Why didn’t they obey their “emperor’s” orders?

I think you have a problem conflating a voluntary defensive organization with the actions of some of its members.

The US is an evil, imperialist power. So is Russia. For smaller countries bordering Russia, the only protection they have from Russian aggression is NATO.

Ukraine decided to try to join the EU. They even agreed not to join NATO. Russia decided that Ukraine was their imperial property and wanted to deny it self determination so started a war that has caused over a million casualties.

Any attempted justification of that is a justification of fascism and imperialism. And there’s only one thing to do with fascists…

“Jaywalking” is a made up American crime.

A pedestrian existing on a street doesn’t justify a driver running them over.

The guy on the quad could have stopped if he feared an accident.

A financial bubble about to pop?

Fast internet is what killed physical games.

If we actually had lots of surviving material like that it would be amazing.

Before the early modern period it was rare for people to write down boring or mundane shit because writing was hard and expensive.

Interns don’t actually do shit anyway.

He’d still have nothing to do in the office. Actually most people in an office are doing nothing regardless of title in my experience.

As Ranzispa says, he goes there to chat and bother everyone else rather than actually work.

They might be trying to integrate wine into the launcher.

Corpos agreeing to a two year delay makes me wonder how much of a shit show development has been so far.

They must have had nothing.

I’d argue that your view is the simplistic one.

Nobody is responsible except Putin. He’s like Santa Claus, delivering every bullet on the frontline himself in a single night.

This is completely false though.

Out of the three of us, the Russian rando is the only one that can realistically influence the Russian state unless you and I are willing to put our boots on and plan an invasion. He is part of the Russian polity.

Now Putin may rule through fear, but he still only rules with the consent of the average Russian rando. If enough of them decide that they’re no longer “non-political”, Putin will no longer rule and the war can end. Frankly, that’s the only way this war is going to end. So this is entirely their responsibility.

With that in mind, the question I raised above still stands, how many Ukrainians need to die to avoid hurting or inconveniencing the average Russian rando? Can you answer that?

To continue on your train of thought, how many Ukrainian children should die to save the life of a Russian child?

Russian parents can decide to end the war today. Ukrainian parents cannot.

What’s the deal with Proton? I missed that.

Alcohol reduces inhibitions, but it doesn’t “cause” violence.

People who become violent after drinking were already violent before their first sip.

Sugar doesn’t make you beat up, kill, or rape people

Cool, neither does alcohol.

Or I must not have noticed last night when my beer threw me into a murderous rampage.

I never actually saw the mail before. I read the GOG apology and assumed they used runes that looked a bit too similar, but looking at the screenshot they full on used the Siegrune at least.

Rereading the apology, they might not be Nazi’s but they’re definitely not sorry enough to give a proper apology for using Nazi imagery. That’s not a good look either.

And they don’t do regional pricing. Buying a game on GOG is nearly twice as expensive in my currency compared to someone in the US or EU.

I don’t know where you’re getting your ball gowns
