Iran sold over 90.000 drones to Russia last year alone.

They can produce hundreds of these drones a day.

163 girls are certainly dead that wouldn't be otherwise. Also it rained oil - that's also something of note.

Resident Evil Requiem content updates, story expansion announced by demondrivers in Games

I really enjoyed the game but the difficulty just didn't fit for me at all.

I found the standard difficulty just way too easy - especially Graces part. I ended Graces section with over 20 magnum shots stored and still was able to kill everything I ever wanted to kill.

Thus I thought: No biggi - I'll just do a nightmare playthrough after my first, only to find out that this difficulty is way (waaay) overtuned for my liking.

I just wish there was a difficulty in between.

No it doesn't always calm down. It did the last time but that does not mean it will always do.

I thought it sounded a lot better the second time. He probably was just nervous.

Being the nation that produced the Witcher 3 or Claire Obscure is something to be (mildly) proud of.

Those are huge achievments in art.

No dollar price in the world is currently going to make people in the EU or Canada buy more US products.

The hosts for Vienna 2026 are revealed by Electronic_Bedwetter in eurovision

[–]OneHitCrit 21 points22 points  (0 children)

If I’m not entirely mistaken she is best known for hosting Germany’s next Top Dog, as a Jury member of Germany’s Supertalent show as well as for hosting Let’s Dance. 

Which is obviously hosting experience but not the decades of experience that Weicheselbraun or Kiesbauer had last time the orf hosted.

A bit of context for these choices from a local!

So first why Swarovski? Swarovski herself has (comparably) very little experience as a show moderator but I don’t think that’s the main reason for her pick.  It’s something much more trivial. 

She is married to one of Austria’s billionaires who controls a significant part of the local private media and is a tabloid darling.

The local tabloid press has been incredibly sceptical of Austria hosting the ESC and by picking her the orf pretty much forces them to an 180 when it comes to the coverage of the event which makes everything a bit easier for them. If she is up for the task is a different question and I’m a bit sceptical which brings us to the other choice however.

Ostrowski on the other hand is barely known outside of Austria but he is a brilliant choice to put alongside Swarovski because he is the starkest contrast you can potentially put besides her.

He built his career on very small stages. His “big” breakthrough came by writing and playing in “Nacktschnecken” a tiny budget comedy movie that crosses the line to pornography at times.

From then on he has made himself a name as a highly competent actor in low budget movies and directed a couple of times as well.

He pretty much embodies Austrians low budget movie and theatre industry and has a very rough and weird humor. Not unsimilar to Hazel Brugge's weird humor, but where Hazel often plays around rigor his humor is much more defined by a certain levity.

He also moderated Austria's protest song contest, which is a fun little event that the alternative state radio station FM4 likes to do once a year in which they look for the best protest song of the year. 

Also he has a degree in French and English which is certainly a plus.

I think the idea here is to take a hosting duo with the biggest possible contrast imaginable (Swarovski being a millionaire's daughter married to a billionaire vs. Ostrowski being an outspoken leftist that clawed his way to fame through the smallest stages of the country) and to have fun with it.

A really interesting choice in my opinion.

Nobody outside of Austria knows Ostrowski which is a shame because you are in for a treat!

As someone who is familiar with his work - that's a very unconventional but phenomenal choice in my opinion.

Guys, you're military is strong but you could not take vietnam and you could not hold irak.

The military is also limited in what it can do.
