I keep telling Americans that their "but I need my bank credit score to get a house loan" is the most retarded thing they do.
If you use a credit card, instead of a debit card, you're already failing at life.

That's probably just the number of requests that deal with Google and other trackers.
I'm sure Elon was exaggerating too, but let's be serious.

In a way, it reminds me of our economy during communism. People still had money, and owned things, but you could actually end up making more money than you could spend. Groceries were rationed, quite heavily, and it's not like you could keep buying appliances or furniture all the time either. You couldn't even buy more than one house, cause your home was kinda government issued anyway. You were heavily limited in what you could do with your money.
@LukeAlmighty @Fiddle
The 3000euro limit would presumably only apply to individuals, not businesses.
@LukeAlmighty @Fiddle
I did consider the possibility that this "digital euro" wouldn't be a replacement currency, but a bonus one, to use alongside traditional currency, for small daily transactions. But when the current credit/debit card infrastructure already works so well, for transactions of any size, why even bother? You either attempt to replace the old credit/debit card entirely, or you give up. There is no point to have another way to buy a bag of chips, if I can just as easily do with with my debit card.
You could argue the digital euro would be more secure, but I need transaction security for large sums of money transacted, not for 50euro exchanges.
@icedquinn @Fiddle
I know, I know. That's the first thing that came to my mind too. But that bs will never work.
@Fiddle
>no more than 50euro
Good luck doing your shopping. If this thing is real, this will flop harder than Magikarp.
Even leaving aside the dystopic control the government wants to have on this thing, just first 4 points alone make it completely untenable as a currency. You can't buy your family groceries within the 50euro limit, the 1000euro a month limit is easily exceeded if you decide to buy an appliance in a particular month (assuming we ignore the first limit), the 50 transactions a month limit can easily be exceeded as well by an average city dweller, and people can and do have salaries more than 3000euro.
My conclusion so far is that this is a farce. A bogus copy-pasta someone made to fearmonger about EU authoritarianism. Which is weird, cause EU is already bad enough. You don't need to fearmonger.

If there's something tik-tok videos taught me, is that everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, goes into the square hole.
@LukeAlmighty
It might help. Even just upping the brightness, so that the dark isn't as dark anymore, could help.
@LukeAlmighty
I honestly didn't know anything about this game. I searched for some gameplay after you mentioned the "pixel-finding in the dark". This single frame is a perfect representation on why your eyes hurt.
Mostly dark environments, but the second you do something, you're exposed to blinding bright visual effects, in the middle of the screen, the exact place your eyes are focusing. But the flash goes away in an instant, before the eyes have time to adjust. Only for you to shoot the gun again, and assault your eyes again.
This constant change between dark and light is what's straining your eyes.
@LukeAlmighty
A lot of games have too much screen clutter. I wouldn't be surprised if the excessive use of visual effects fatigues the eyes faster than a game from late 90s, early 2000. Whenever I play something modern, I can't help but scream internally at the fact that devs didn't need to make pickups shine/glow for you to be able to see them in the environment.

Ritsu never did it for me (I prefer Mio-chan), but I'm definitely a fan of the rest.

@MatebaRespecter @lichelordgodfrey @Terry
Does anyone actually say that? Cause what I'm seeing, from most of the users, is a severe rejection of Fedi becoming the place for mainstream normies.
@lichelordgodfrey @Terry
Most instances are not Kiwifarms or Daily Stormer though, and those type of attacks would fall flat. Maybe they'll manage to fuck poa.st, bae.st and a few more, but there are also way too many instances that are perfectly politically correct, that just want their independence and wouldn't be interested in participating in an online government.
