Not a shred of evidence that non-life can become life and loads of evidence to the contrary. And now we are supposed to believe it didn't just happen once but twice? Can they not see why the reputation of "science" is in the gutter right now?
False. Also, you need to re-read what was written. You're arguing about something the article says the opposite of.

The accepted dogma of so many 'scientific' explanations is hesitant to even accept that our knowledge and understanding may have evolved. What we once thought was true may not be. But established dogma digs in its heels...
Look at COVID. The powers that be were unwilling to admit 'we do not know, yet,' and the narrative changed multiple times within the same week. That bred distrust and split people along political party lines.
Science can be bought. Results can be skewed, fabricated.

I was a hardcore GOG advocate, because they opposed DRM and offered native Linux runtimes of their games. However, their Linux support was pretty lackluster in recent years. Game versions meant to run on Ubuntu 16 and 18 and unusable on any recent version. About half a year ago, after many attempts to get things running on current Linuxes, I finally caved and moved from GOG to Steam, since they offer a hassle-free Linux experience with a curated central Linux-compliant runtime environment.
I presume GOG has noticed people giving up on GOG and now has decided to follow suit. I hope they can build a compelling experience, but they've lost me for now.

A day after I wrote the the post I actually was in Hamburg to meet up with old school friends. My buddy and I went to check out the site afterwards. Quite impressive. They had the street covered in sand and gravel covered with steel plates in order to spread the load more evenly. The bridge has since been moved into place but there are pics videos floating around on the Internet if you want some visual details.

Submission + - Hamburg is replacing a bridge in one huge piece (tagesschau.de) 2
Qbertino writes: The northern German City of Hamburg is currently in the process of replacing one of it's bridges in one single gigantic piece. The new replacement weighs 3700 metric tons and is carefully being moved into place in the next few days over a stretch of 500 meters, requiring extreme patience and precision maneuvering. Some places leave only 40 cm of room to neighbouring buildings. The bridge is expected to be put in it's place by the end of next weekend.
