I don’t agree that its possible to make everyone feel personally at risk when speeding.

If people want to be around other people then social accountability is required. Whether you want to call it punishment or not, we have to have ways to signal to each other what we find okay and what we don’t. I dont agree with deceptive setups designed to maximize income for a city, so I do agree with most of what you are saying, I just think ultimately punishment needs to be there for some people.

A camera says nothing about punishment and everything about social accountability. Some people simply need a reminder or are new to an area as well.

I didnt say to destroy it, let it have its natural life cycle. Live service games very clearly have a life cycle that ends. You can debate whether companies are deceptive or not, and we should fix that issue if it exists, but preserving art for arts sake is quickly a fools errand and driven by ego. If you don’t see the obvious pitfalls of curating such a collection then you simply feel bad about things dieing.

Things in life don’t last forever, accept that. Some live service games last upwards of 10 years, like the original The Crew did. Some last decades and have multiple snapshots of the games development, like WoW or Runescape. Most offline games are sold with perpetual ownership, so that’s already solved there. Save a copy of it yourself if its so important.

Sure companies should communicate this reality better but that doesnt change the fact that games will die.

Presumably because you want what they can provide you. Its not rocket science my guy.

And then what? Why are we storing these old games. Move on with your lives. Art doesnt last forever, its not supposed to. But you want publishers to put in extra effort to preserve them, and then have governments put in effort to preserve them, apparently forever.

Its funny how its the people playing the games who want them preserved forever rather than the people making the games, isn’t it. The people making them have pointed out multiple problems with this idea, but who cards about them right?

Do bears even have a fear instinct? What animals are they afraid of?

I think people hoped kamala would listen to their protests and advocate for change, but she did the opposite. I would never be able to vote for someone if they couldn’t at least commit to not murdering my family members. I dont see how thats controversial.

My bad I should have read more. I dont think we can blame them for voting third party or withholding their vote. Thats actually the only morally consistent thing they can do.

I thought they had actually voted for trump or Harris.

Normally I’m one to say we should be understanding and all that, but I honestly can’t understand Arabic people voting for anyone they thought had a chance to murder their relatives back home.

Edit: I was wrong, I thought they had voted for trump or Harris but they actually voted third party or withheld their vote. I think thats morally consistent and we shouldnt blame them for anything trump has done. Saying they helped propel trump to victory is the only immoral thing here.

You do have a fair point there, I should be more inclusive.

Aren’t you simply saying we can’t be wrong about social constructs? Does that make them meaningless?

Republicans support businesses not workers. The people who own the businesses benefit.

At a certain point aren’t we just making stuff up to make ourselves feel better? Obviously someone can be wrong about their own gender much the same as someone can be wrong that what they created is art.

Video games are more like a theme park set up by a group of people. Not all entertainment is art by default.

I think I did estimate walking time too high by about double. I used to walk/bike to work myself I just didn’t give it much thought when I wrote it.

I still think if it was 24 miles a day, that would be a bit extreme but it ended up being 12 per day. Still pretty lengthy but entirely believable.

Well go ahead and educate someone who is apparently too privileged.

Yeah that does make more sense, fair enough! I remember reading about this when it happened back then too.

I’m saying I don’t think its feasible whether she would put up with it or not.

If she’s walking 12 hours a day for an 8 hour shift, she has 4 hours to sleep and eat? I think someone’s exaggerating here or something. I’m leaning towards the story is fake, but I haven’t really tried to verify it.

I’m not sure it makes sense, thats like 6 hours of walking one way. Maybe she’s speed walking but still how fast could she go?
