It’s long overdue and their abuser culture needs gutting with all the scum exposed and punished.
Ubisoft getting purchased? I can only imagine what that would look like.
First there is Ubisoft Basic, which is the studios in Europe.
Then there is Ubisoft Gold, that will include their studios in North America.
Third we have Ubisoft Gold Digital Deluxe Plus to also get their Asian studios.
Pre-order now and get the exclusive bonus of the rights to the Tom Clancy franchise!
You can also spend more money to buy Ubisoft coins, which you can use to get boosters to improve their effort to get rid of the abusers in the company.
Also before you can use any of their studios you need to first travel there and climb a tower to reveal the entire building to you. Gather all the company cards of all the Ubisoft employees to unlock an iconic Ubisoft baseball cap.

And you can only access the studios through Uplay.

Went to vote… Barely saw a single soul below the age of 30.
I’m starting to think more and more we should adopt the Starship Trooper distinction between civilian and citizen.
Yikes, man. Megayikes.

If it gets their butts out to vote after painstainkingly earning that right which their forefathers died and bled for… The thought is tempting.
You can vote in advance and or on other days, right?
Not in my country. When I called my City Hall they expressed that I could only vote on Sundays. I’m not sure if voting through mailing is a thing and I’d be afraid if it was especially when European as a whole understand how unsafe that is.
I’d love to see some sources on how “unsafe” it is. There are plenty of countries that have people who live abroad vote in this way, and I’ve never found a hint of fraud in that department.
It is quite safe, there’s just a political industry devoted to denying that’s the case and changing laws to make voting more difficult/restrict it.
The source is I made it f@#& up.
Meme aside, I don’t have any, but I did consult how to in my own country. In France voting by mail is impossible, you can only vote through other proxy by making someone you trust to do it for you and even then you still gotta make an official request online and show yourself into a state building like a police office or consulate to confirm said request.
Provided its attainable, as in actually attainable. Public service does not need to be being part of the military of a quasi-fashy wet dream.
Aptitude testing is also probably good too. A good democracy needs informed and educated electorates.
Also changing voting to be proportionally representative is also the best way to go about as it forces political parties to learn how to be adults in the negotiation room.
Look at the clown fiesta of the namesake of the Westminster system to see how our political machine is about 100 years out of date.
Of course, It has to be hard, not impossible.
Otherwise I agree with all the rest.
Difference between hard and fit for purpose.
Hmm, in essence I still would like an element of “If they really want it, they oughta put the efforts/time in it.” I can’t say I disagree with fit for purpose, there could be many avenues to it or even placing no time limit on it.
lmao yeah, good idea! Lets make it so only people who are ‘educated’ get to vote.
Certainly nothing wrong with that systemically. I’m sure that everyone has equal access to education, and that such a tool wouldn’t be wielded by those in power to actively disenfranchise groups they don’t like, or skew the tests so that only the “right people” can vote.
Here’s an idea: No. How about we don’t put up walls in front of democracy that can and will be exploited by the people in power to retain that power. “One person, one vote” was the rights that were fought for that you’re so eager to tout. Who’s the person actually betraying that: the guy who doesn’t care to vote (perhaps they’re busy - is it a state holiday?), or the person wanting to actively walk back that right and strip people of the ability to vote?

Don’t know how it is in France, but here, if all the people who every election never votes with the reason being “I don’t like any of the big parties/there’s no point” would actually go and vote on the smaller groups/people they actually agree with, then those small parties would be a whole lot bigger/bring that change people usually claim to want.
But if everyone just stays home/doesn’t commit to it, then of course nothing happens.
Voting is important.

Time/Effort does not always equal “Difficulty” Some people are very much task and goal orientated, others are not motivated by the same principles.
Others are motivated by the sense of public duty or virtue, making their community a better place.
Ideally any sort of system you speculate on needs to encourage positive civic traits.
Some countries like Australia mandate voting on penalties of fines. Some people will simply not engage in the democratic system unless forced, yet will bleat and complain about the results of it.
this isnt true in countries which do not have a decently proportional system - in a first past the post system a vote for a small party is of about as much worth as spoiling your ballot
