You cannot compare with someone in their 15 today: average time spent with families is decreasing, and the average time that teenagers spend in touch with their peers (not necessarily in person, but also via IM) is increasing, and therefore also the peer pressure. Also, what about those kids with absent parents? What about those kids with toxic or incompetent parents?

Sure, I agree with anyone who says that kids should be guided and assisted on social media in the right environments, or in a way to find the right spaces to express themselves (with hobbies, sports, group activities, whatever), and I’ll vote for anyone who could do anything on that purpose. But we can also imagine flying cars at this point.

Stopped watching any live television, and cancelled my TV License. They can ask a certain country from the MiddleEast for the missing subscription, for what I care.

You cannot ask a 15 year old for that. They are subject to peer pressure. The only way is to forbid or restrict the access to Social Media to minors. The real question is: who must do it?

It has been a campaigning topic for the right-wing parties for the last 25 years at least.

I also tried to explain them that if it is a matter of money spent and unrefundable cancellations, I can compensate their costs. No amount of lost money ever can justify the risk they are exposing themselves into.

To be fair, when I hear people screaming: “It’s too good to be true!”, or: “It has so much we have never seen in AAA!”, etc., on the contrary, we did. It’s taking features already defined in other games and assembled here all together.

I have a brother (and his group of friends) who decided to go, and they are full into their sunken cost fallacy at the moment. It would be very tough to reason them out.

I would also add HellDivers 2 , by Arrowhead Game Studios, although the Publisher is a Japanese corporation (Sony Interactive Entertainment) and it is not an indie game at all.
Remedy is a Finnish studio, but the Publisher for Alan Wake is Epic Games, one of the least consumer-friendly companies in the Industry.

From United Kingdom to Italy

Does Mullvad allow sports streaming? When I used it to watch the Olympics on the Italian broadcaster (RAI), the stream was blocked.

Sure: Joplin can actually synchronize all the Notes content with any WebDAV destination. And kDrive (as my personal cloud storage) supports WebDAV. There is a help page where they explain all the steps: https://www.infomaniak.com/en/support/faq/1800/synchronize-joplin-notes-via-webdav-with-kdrive.

Several actually:

• Web Browser: Vivaldi
• Phone: FairPhone 6
• Storage: Infomaniak kDrive
• Mail: MailBox.org
• Notes: Joplin over kDrive WebDAV

Also, general rule for the software is to look for an open source client or for an alternative with no or less trackers implemented.
