Maybe when they see another human once per month

I mean the situation is about 60% wearing and 40% not wearing. And it isn't compulsory outside of healthcare and some other jobs to people wear them. I would say that situation in Finland would probably be much worse if social distancing wasn't part of our normal cultural behavior

You know that you are with you concerns nearly 15 years late. Cloud providers have had power to decide to kill business from beginning and they have done it constantly. And funnily situation is big part thanks to republicans (but they have not been alone with their 'pro' business stand) who have blocked all attempts to put restrictions for companies unilaterally end service contract that breaks their ToS, which they are able to change any point unilaterally

Recommendation for using mask come in September. I would estimate that it was October when majority started to use them in public places. There has been people using them from start, but they were mainly those who could not avoid human contacts because of their job.

In some countries that did early lockdowns and mask, things went well until they removed restrictions, like for example Restrictions help to prevent spread of the virus as long as people follow those restrictions. Which is why it is pretty impossible to say which would be best strategy to follow until the pandemic is over (given that it actually ends in some point) It really is not, but we have good PR teams and you only heard things that we have done right

Yes. As long as there is almost unlimited contractual freedom then company can but almost any stipulation in their ToS they want and those stipulations must be followed if they don't break specific laws. And there is almost no laws when it comes to service contracts between two companies. Which means that it is usually for small companies take or leave situation. EU has tried to create directives that would put some rules that big companies need to follow, but almost all of those have been blocked by member countries. And US has even less restrictions and EU and as Parler is US company it would need win their case there. And good luck with that. You can just look how well it has went for musicians who have tried to get their abusive contracts nullified even in cases where other party is actually physically abused them.

Apple and Google have let Parler not follow their moderation guidelines for couple years for some reason, usually they throw apps out much quicker, now recent events have forced Apple's and Google's hands in matter. When you do app that allows people post content Google at least demands you to write clear policy how you will prevent them breaking terms that you as developer need to agree when you publish your app. https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/10286120?hl=en And if Google's moderator (or their AI algorithm) determines that you have not followed their enforced policy enough they will remove your app and some cases all your apps from the app store. And Apple has pretty similar policy in their store. And there is quite little hope to win court case against them when they remove your app for any reason, as they have pretty solid terms of services that give them right to do pretty much what they want and they have money and will to fight decades in courts just to make other companies see that it is pointless to sue them.

I would say that it would do good for InXile to create their own setting instead of using existing ones, as it would help them become more their own than ghost of Interplay

12 hours even with Twitter ban for over half of it

I love how big sunk of reply's are "but but but MSM is evil"

You know that conspiracy leaning people, sites, news etc. are already claiming that there was no Trump supporters, right wing people or Qano etc. people among those who stromed in Capitol, but that all the stormers were actually disguised members of antifa, regardless of fact that storming was live streamed by well known figures including right wing politicians and well known right wing/qano/etc. people are easily identifiable from videos and pictures taken from the Capitol. Meaning there is probably nothing that you can do to de-escalate situation with those people because for them only acceptable situation is where they have total control and they will invent narrative that justifies any action they take to get that point. So you can't take munition for fearmongering that isn't based reality and which changes constantly to fit current situation, meaning there is always new fearmongering stories that will be spread regardless of actions that are taken. There is no good way to counter such, but showing significant consequences, does not necessary slow down believers but it has impact people around believers which makes believers work harder.

People who try to commit coups or otherwise cease power usually think they are doing right thing. Even people who commit genocides often think they are right side of history, which is why there is often plenty of evidence of their crimes as they don't think what they are doing is a crime, but betterment of their nation. Ignorance and intentions aren't valid defense for bad actions and I don't think that anybody should accept them as valid justifications

Kevin Sorbo gives excellent summary what actually happened

Maybe it is because you don't want to see it?

Police seems to have different approach to these things in 2021 than they had in 2020 Looks like some people didn't read their master's tweets From "kneeling during national anthem being insult towards USA's flag and military" to Guesses will this fine impartial real news journalist from the Blaze get visit from FBI any time soon, considering that he tweets having access to information that is classified.

https://twitter.com/bubbaprog/status/1346920198461419520 My **** post seems to be closer the truth than I thought

Sorry but I need to correct you, I am just speaking alternate patriotic truth by stating that true patriotic Capitol troops support true and only leader of America, God Emperor Trump

Last four years they have done their best that there are only Trump supporters working in all governmental organizations , so security probably is part of those who are storming in the Capitol

Democrats winning both seats seems most likely out come. They have become quite good with their strategic vote dumps

At least Trump knew it already year ago.

Sometimes I wonder is it actually possible that people don't actually understand that these things are bidirectional which is why there was agreements in first place

Maybe this new 'study' will help people get over their fears

I don't think there is any general feeling towards it, it is seen as swedes doing swede things. Although majority of people think we should fully close borders for swedes and swedes tourist feel like they aren't welcome in Finland and make effectively this old meme as reality
