You don't think a sovereign country can have a state religion if everyone in the country is part of that religion and wants it that way?

It's referencing the deep divisions between creeds even though they are very similar from the outside.

The whole point is just a way of not revering the prophet as a god or idol. Like Catholic saints are borderline in their focus on the religiosity of that person but the church chose to ignore it because it was popular and helped them spread their religion.

But the implication is that it only matters for people who are already Muslim. It doesn't make a difference what outsiders do.

It's time based. Buddhism also had a similar ban on iconic representation of the Buddha. That's why some early art will just have footprints or things like that. Islam should allow iconic representation of their prophet within 300 years.

Social ostracization or ridicule is an appropriate response to bad statements, not violence

Is it more stable? I always ended up getting either a kraken or like 2 fps with a giant space station.

The recent ones were good. But they're basically a visual novel with some combat, so they're small scale.

It was honestly the design choice to make it procedural generation and then leaving the universe as a new game plus. That killed it completely.

As always, buying a used previous gen flagship is the best value.

You have to keep inflation in mind. 550 would be 450 2019 dollars.

Not really a countermeasure, but the scalping certainly proved that there is a lot of people willing to buy their stuff at high prices.

Yeah, but if you have a high refresh rate monitor and you want 4k plus 240 hz then you probably need this.
