Honestly if you're removing meta tags from the html of a page for page speed/server space/bandwidth/environmental benefits -- it's time to do something else

I hate FB/twitter as much as the next tech-savvy person but accept that my users use those platforms and it's good for my website to show up optimally when they do

"but part of the secret sauce of why these big orgs generally operate as effective institutional ecologies"

Nah

the secret sauce is "who you know"

it's a tale as old as time

Do you think I was trying to defend China rather than pointing out that if US continues on its current trajectory it will effectively become one of most important Russian allies?

Huge NHS and government leases of tens of thousands of vehicles.

Same goes for the Jaguar iPace. You can get 90,000GBP of car for like 35,000 with all the gadgets.

Even in essence brand new EVs are getting very significant discounts over there if you are not choosy. I wonder how the financing companies will be able to handle these if their guaranteed buyback prices need to hold. And they are underwater...

Doesn’t exactly answer your question, but I am hoping zerospace is the ‘next big thing’ / thing to reinvigorate the genre

Recent steam demo is super, super fun

It’s a shame aoe3 didn’t manage to pull over the sizable aoe2 audience and build upon it. That is basically the only major rts release in years. And it is really good but it was never going to be aoe2 and that’s not good enough for that hardcore player base.
