Well in Dutch they call themselves Nederlanders or Hollanders. Though Hollanders is technically only correct if they are from the Dutch province North-Holland or South-Holland

here is a CGP Grey video about the difference between Holland and the Netherlands https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eE_IUPInEuc

And the reason why the Netherlands is also known as Holland is basically before the unification of the Low Lands every province was a self governing state and Holland was the richest province. Hence why most traders who went abroad from the Low Lands were people from Holland. It’s therefore why people abroad would call the Low Lands Holland since Hollanders were the only people from the Low Lands they met and and after the Netherlands was formed the name Holland for that area stuck in many languages.

It’s not really a mix-up. More a continuation of an old name for the language spoken in the Netherlands. The Dutch centuries ago called their language Diets/Duuts/Duits which means something like Germanic. This was before the countries Germany and the Netherlands existed.

Diets is not a single language but a name for all the different regional languages spoken in the low lands. Diets is also known as Middle Dutch. The name was used to differentiate the languages from the Romance languages.

Hence why the English called the people of the low lands Dutch since the people of the low lands said they were speakers of Diets/Duuts/Duits.

Also in the Dutch national anthem there is a line that says “Ben ik van Duitsen bloed” “I am of Dutch/Deutsche blood” which does not refer to modern day Deutschland but to what all Germanic people in the low lands, what is now present day Netherlands, would call themselves back then.

And MAGA worshippers are watching with glee.

As a non-Merican I hope the Union falls apart before Trump can crown himself King of America.

Is it right to call him a co-founder? Service Games aka Sega existed long before his company merged with Goraku Bussan, the company that owned Service Games

College educated voters lean Democrat and people with no college experience lean Republican. So not the winning idea Matt Walsh thinks it is. Especially considering how dumb MAGA voters are

lol Ubi. Why are they still treated as one of the big ones? Like Mojang alone is probably way more valuable than Ubi in total. They basically double A now and they should probably focus on double A productions. Also their market cap is even lower today they are a sub billion euro company now.

And Tesla had a helping hand in making China the leader in EVs. It’s why China let Tesla operate in the country in the first place. Tesla’s presence accelerated the growth of every domestic business that is part of the EV supply chain. Since Tesla was required to use local businesses. So when Chinese EV competitors opened business the entire supply chain was already in place and up and running.

Same thing happened with smartphones thanks to Apple’s investments and training new Chinese phone makers were able to design, produce and launch a new phone in record time.

It will definitely boost PS5 sales. Sony loves to boast about PlayStation 2 being the best selling console in history but they conveniently leave out the reason. It’s because there are modchips and even software jailbreaks for the console. It’s why it sold super well during the end of its lifetime in low and middle income regions.

There is a threshold. You only pay if you have a net worth of $2 million or more or earned around $200k or more per year in the last 5 years.

And the Old Snake one too

Probably not. Wealthy people like him have to pay an exit tax on their unrealized gains when they renounce their US citizenship

Unfortunately IO gave Conor McGregor, a grade-A asshole, a big bag of money for some dumb DLC appearance. So they never gonna get my money ever again. Who knows which asshole they are going to give it to next.

Matchmaking is nothing more than a user database query. That database sits on GOG’s servers and the only thing GOG does is put users into a lobby and then send that data back to the clients so the game can show it to the user. And then when the game starts GOG connects the clients to the host. So developers don’t have to setup their own lobby and relay server. That host can be another client, then the developers don’t have to pay for anything, or a dedicated server which the devs have to provide and pay for themselves. And in case a game only does multiplayer with dedicated servers then clients do not have the server binaries unless the devs provide it.

Add a fourth bar. The physical attractiveness scale. Attractive candidates are more likely to get hired and even earn more over their career.

GOG Galaxy only handles lobbies, matchmaking and relaying connections to the host. So even if they provide a way to self host it, if the game uses dedicated servers to host sessions it still wouldn’t work if the game devs don’t provide the server runtime binaries. Only games that can host a session on the client would work without the server runtime.

Marrying the advisor of Jean-Marie Le Pen ( leader of Front Nationale a far-right French political party) type of racist. Plus she called Marie le Pen (daughter of Jean-Marie Le Pen and also a fascist) the Joan of Arc of the 21st century in an interview.

Also Brigitte Bardot is a racist pos. People, especially media, want to gloss over that because she was hot. Same with how Coco Chanel still gets venerated.

Those concept designs look dope as hell. No way would they’ve been able to produce that for less than $150 in the 80’s.

Also I see some modern PlayStation design language in them, did Sony copy Nintendo’s homework lol.
