Is it simply impossible for you to imagine that other peoples have different opinions and viewpoints on things?

There are an infinity of viewpoints, and many (most?) of them will be wrong.

  • "Lebanon, Iran and the Palestinians can defend themselves" is not wrong.
  • "Lebanon and Iran are currently defending themselves" is wrong.

Lebanon isn't even included in this, Hezbollah is not Lebanon. Iran is attacking Israel. They could stop doing that anytime and have Israel leave them alone. That includes giving up on their uranium enrichment.

Palestinians are a much more complicated situation, because the settler land theft is agression from Israel and should have stopped decades ago. But the current Palestinian leaders (both Hamas and Fatah) don't actually care to solve that. They would rather have their citizens continue to die so they can continue getting richer. Which is why they encourage deadly attacks on civilian which will keep Netanyahu and his ilk in power, because Israelis like all humans tend to respond to violence with violence.

These are human beings sick of imperialist aggression.

Bullshit. How can you be so blind? Iran is led by right-wing theocrats leaders, they would be imperialist themselves if they could afford to. Actually they are, since they supported Syria when it fucking invaded Lebanon for 30 years. And then left Hezbollah to continue controlling the place, where it has more influence than the actual Lebanese governement, which is supposed to represent the Lebanese people.

Hezbollah does not act in the interest of the Lebanese people, they are murderous thugs that obey their masters in Tehran. If they truly wanted to help Lebanese people, they would not be shooting at Israel. There are so many things in terrible shape in Lebanon they could be fixing, but no, they are a large part of the problem because they want control over making things better.

Tell me though, which company will not hand over what data they have when asked by their country's judiciary?

The question here is how much data they keep. Strict legal minimum or more.

Not 100% but 99.9%... IIRC Guild Wars 2 servers had like 1 actual outage in 11 years. They have pretty amazing structure.

The other big reason which isn't covered is privacy (in protests for example)...

But thanks for finding the law, you saved me some time. I'll just add the equivalent text in the Constitutition

3 The law shall provide for exceptions. These may only be justified on the grounds of health, safety, weather conditions or local custom.

Our sense of humour is worse than germans, what did you expect?

So why not lean into it fully and make the GM responsible for the whole balancing?

Because having things balanced properly in regard to the myriad options that are possible in people imaginations is hard, especially related to combat. Improper balacing leads to people having a bad time, while having an established, fair ruleset lets the DM and the players focus on other things.

No need for the framework to do balancing, because a good GM will do that.

But at this point why even have rules? A "good GM" can just entirely improvise a system.

I mean, to each group their own, but 4176 is the total of all together, which is a very unfair way of presenting it.

You'll never have to choose between all of them, or even a decent fraction.

While leveling up, you'll have to choose between 4-8 class feats accessible at your level, and you would usually prioritise ones available from your current levels to those available beforehand. Plus, at some point many feats require prerequisite, which means you can cut down half of options you can choose from really. Same thing with the race feats, skill feats and general feats.

8 possibilites maximum at every level up might be too much for some people, but really isn't in the same ballpark of having to choose between 4000+ every time.

Any source which has "freaks out" in the title speaking about a country should really be avoided...

Summer will become ever harsher, and the older parts of our populations will suffer ever more from it. AC is slowly becoming a necessity to survive...
