they are also confusing the software with the firefox brand.

I guess is people were using the oracle VM without license and were caught. Oracle makes it very easy to not notice that the Java distribution you download requires payment.

they are tons of cheaper and free java vendors. There is little reason to choose Oracle’s

what exactly do you mean by “locking down” in this context?

This is a false dichotomy. There is absolutely no reason to do both. And honestly, people who advocate for animal welfare tend to also be more outspoken against human suffering.

I've been enjoying the game a lot. My kids did complain that the battle mode is so barebones. 8 had a lot of battle modes. Going back to just balloons and coins is not great.

But I haven't seen reviews complaining about this so I guess nobody really cares

and it requires line of sight which means it is hard to scale, will have issues with adverse climate and probably will need frequent realigments

they still could play nice and show some good will. they have been behaving awful recently

he clearly mispoke. He meant "poor kids"

there is a very extreme reactionary version of catholicism in the US (like Vance). I dont know much about this new guy but at least he doesnt seem in that track.

I think he realized his papacy was not going to be enough to make a tangible change so he stacked the deck in his favour by creating a lot of new cardinals. This way it was most likely someone like him would succeed him.

theoretically the whole curia should obey the pope, but in reality it is a very large appartus that is very hard to steer, I doubt we'll see meaningful changes. I remember the first years of Francis reign, there was a lot of shift and scandals but also a lot of pushback. Eventually things became quieter and back to 'business as usual'. The same happened with Benedict, it was clear he quit due to his inability to steer the institution.

I think that is the reason Francis made so many cardinals.
