I would argue that those sanctions, if general, shouldn’t include necessities like food or medicine. Also, I feel that sanctions against specific figures in the government might be relatively effective (many countries are doing this already). Make it difficult to enjoy the fortune they stole from their people.

I also don’t like the idea of sanctions that aren’t based on specific/ongoing actions, but the existence of a certain government/regime, though I see where you are coming from.

I would also still argue that the Russian people chose that government, back when they did choose, because they didn’t see many other options, and keeping them in perpetual destitution long term isn’t likely to change that.

Demonising a whole people like this is in itself wrong.

What is your supposed solution, then? How does one deal with tens of millions of people who are supposedly evil and wrong?

Where they, though? People drafted and sent to the front generally have few options. I get that people dying is what happens in war but casting all individual soldiers of one side as “bad”, of the other as “good” just serves to dehumanise people and excuse atrocities.

This was a legitimate military target, but I don’t think anyone should cheer about a hundred dead people.

If you can autofill passwords without authenticating in some way, they are probably either stored in plaintext, or encrypted with a key that is stored in plaintext. Cause, like, how is it supposed to magically encrypt it.

Third party key market places are kinda iffy, and there have been numerous cases of the keys being offered on there having been bought with stolen credit cards, or otherwise generated in ways that aren’t quite above board.

I remember one interview with an indy dev in which they said they prefer people pirating, because chargebacks from stolen cards are actively costing them money.

For people who feel they need the entertainment games provide, but can’t afford current prices, I feel pirating games from conglomerates, and buying from smaller studios and indies is the most socially responsible way to do it, but I’m not your mum.

Edit: Huh, looks like greenmangaming gets their keys directly from the publishers. Didn’t know that was a thing. Guess I was a bit quick on the trigger there, should have checked first. Sorry about that.
