This is potentially the worst possible outcome for this whole debacle. This way the austrian conservatives earn points because they managed to restrict the percieved illegal immigrant flow from the east. Also the current governing parties in romania get to keep their crooked border staff, through which they siphon hundreds of millions of euro, as well as earning some electoral points. This partial agreement will also make sure that further schengen talks can be put on the back burner. And in the end the true beneficiaries of a schengen accord - romanian/bulgarian businesses that ship by truck - will get the shaft. Oh, and this whole scandal plays right into russia's hands, as this will fuel serious anti-eu sentiment in romania.

So we are concurrently developing plastic-eating bacteria as well as bacteria-killing polymers. I smell epic battle potential

Not sure what you mean. I've played the game through every update and, while shooting was always pretty enjoyable (minus some nasty bugs pre-1.2), the driving still blows. They did tweak it a bit but it's still noticeably bad, especially if you switch between another car game and CP.

Romania: PM uses poor results to justify cancelling promised raises to teachers' salaries, raises that were negociated after protests earlier this year.

Education Minister pretends the results are excellent, despite them being worse than previous ones.

So business as usual I suppose.

Ah, but you see, they are not the same. Control Panel is an archaic tool that lets you configure your windows quickly and efficiently. The new and improved AWS will be designed from the ground up to waste your time and discourage tweaking. It will probably obfuscate some settings, quietly remove some settings, track your usage, etc.

This quote is now so old that a catholic priest wouldn't touch and abuse it. Even the guy is dead now. But yeah, it's still an insight into how fucked up their mentality is. They probably still think like that, except they're not saying the words out loud.

Acti CEO reading this article: "so they want more lootboxes?! excellent!"

Wait, Infinite Warfare qualifies as "the grand old days"? Manufactured drama much?

At this point we can safely assume that Raxxla will prove to be the friends we made along the way, CMDR

They did completely rework a bunch of gameplay systems, so bugs were to be expected. I tried a 2.0 playthrough, and while bug-wise it felt like the 1.2 days ( the death-on-boarding-delamain bug being particularly infuriating ) the gameplay changes are certainly interesting. I'm still holding off on getting PL just yet, maybe wait for a discount.
