Oh yeah, I know plenty of people abusing adderall, mdma, coke or what not, then turn around and judge some others for having the bad luck to get addicted to the wrong drug
Exactly. Most people don’t realize you are infinitely closer to being the homeless person than the billionaire exploiting them. A few bad events and suddenly the street is your best option. A few good events and maybe you can buy a house instead of rent
That’s a good point. The US is pretty hawkish in general and I’m sure the higher ups in the DOD even more so.
I’m for reasonable gun control. Waiting periods, no fully automatic weapons. And the US is on the decline from being a superpower now. I don’t need or want America to be the world police. The world should have more partnerships, treaties, and such, and less superpowers dominating the landscape.
I don’t think we should be grooming children for leadership, I think leaders will emerge naturally as people grow and develop. We should be giving children resources to be their best selves with free education, housing, and food. People can elect those who feel best represent them and their interests. I’m a moral relativist, mores and values shift constantly and it is hard to predict what would be best with future technologies and societies.
If they’re calling it a physical copy it should be a physical copy of the game data. Having a case to hold a code is a ridiculous slap in the face. And a waste of plastic
Fully automated communism would be the goal. But steps to get there: (not super ordered)
I’d want people in power who actually care about their constituents. Their incentives should be to help people, not pad their pockets
Cars: bad for the planet, bad for physical health, bad for mental health, bad for urban planning. What are they useful for again?
I had zero hope this would get blocked. Still not totally sure but the FTC is definitely putting up a solid fight. I’d prefer the consoles be fighting to prove they are the better hardware and software experience, not that they can buy the most studios
Free software is foundational to our society today. We should be much more aggressively protecting and encouraging it
