What?! Ha ha, what is cheating in an online comment? Things aren’t "supposed to"ing like you want so its cheating? Cheating means breaking rules. Are saying adhering to some kind of rules or regulations would make our conversations more productive?
No one has ever dealt with people before, you clearly have an advantage over every one else. Businesses work exactly like wet wood, it’s a flawless analogy.
I wasted so much time speaking with politicians, learning about economics and history, and all I needed to do was have experiences with people and I’d be a political genius too. I mean here I am, almost 40 years old, having spent my entire working career and off time dealing with people, but that doesn’t count. None it counts but yours.
When I look around now vs years ago and see how deregulation is the cause of for almost all of our modern woes, I am left to agree with you, the solution must be even more delegation. Unmitigated greed by earth’s most ruthless people has always heralded a golden age of universal prosperity. Just look at the industrial revolution and the 20s. Children working and dying in factories and mines again is a sign of good things, but society can only succeed if we can sell these kids hard, addictive drugs without legal interference.
“I’m libertarisn” followed by an assumption like businesses are “supposed to” do anything except make money and bump their stock prices by any means necessary. Yep, checks out.
Businesses are horribly inefficient due to their short term thinking. Efficiency is a marshmallow test. Doing things right in hopes of making a $150 tomorrow will always be tossed out I favout of a garunteed $100 right now, doing it fast and dirty. The idea that businesses are naturally incentivized to do x because of market forces is bullshit if x is anything other than whatever makes the most money right now.
They send our natural resources to the other side of the world so slaves can turn them into goods that they ship right back to us. Efficiency is an expense that businesses are often incentivized to avoid when doing it wrong is cheaper.
Of you want businesses to do anything but chase short term profits as ruthlessly as they can get away with, you need regulations.
But if they were made in USA the pages would be in the wrong order and the corners wouldn’t be square. The Chinese ones are at least usable for the 8 months they last before falling apart.
I just meander without purpose, going whichever way feels good. The unaimed arrow never misses.
I thought of a third gripe! I would have preferred to play this game in Japanese, but only the main story lines are translated. Being loving to your horse or overhearing villagers talking about your deeds is totally lost in playing with just subtitles. You really need the dialogue to be in your native tongue to get the full story and atmosphere. Every spoken word should have been subtitled and translated. This is an accessibility issue, too. Deaf people just don’t get to experience that part of the game.
That’s fair, I loved that side of things, too. I’m more talking about the conspicuous and samey cliffs that look and feel a little too contrived, strictly made for gameplay purposes like creating paths, blocking off areas, providing platforming challenges and assassination opportunities. They were overused and unnatural looking sometimes.
Larger than life beauty for beauty’s sake is done so well, in that game, it’s an amazing experience, the overuse of little cliffs everywhere is really my only gripe. I spend more time walking on my horse along paths than I do galloping straight to my destination. I like just soaking it all in. I’m playing it right now for the first time; I did the first act and the DLC, I’m about a quarter of the way tbrough the second act now. Loving it.
Edit: Oh I do have a second gripe, but with the DLC, and it’s the same gripe I have with all DLC. It was obviously written by the B team, the writing is less subtle and everything is a bit more extreme. Still a good time, but just a wee notch lower in writing quality than the main story.
The world design is very gamey in Tsushima. A bunch of platforming jungle gyms with landscape filler in-between. Such a beautiful game, I would wish it looked more realistic. More Red Dead, less Far Cry.

And the fate of the entire country rests in their hands.
They are for half of them.
Very yes. They could reveal their location for starters, which could spoil a mission and put lives at risk, but if they use the same device on both this and the ships network, you risk compromising the ship’s network or even the Navy itself, giving our enemies all kinds of sensitive info.
We are in the midst of a world war being waged in cyberspace and the US is losing. Incidents like this are a genuine threat.
That’s anecdotal, not data.
The same way as every other job on earth that doesn’t tip.
She could still use her old job to woo progressives so long as she fraames it as her experience giving her insight into the broken parts criminal justice system like the police problem and crazy, unqualified judges. But if she goes all thin blue line on us she can get fucked.
Both seem keen on fighting corrupt politicians, be it in Medici or Midgar. Hard to tell.
Taking other people’s creative works to create your own for-profit product is illegal in every way except when AI does it. AI is not a person watching videos. AI is a product using others’ content as its bricks and mortar. Thousands of hours of work on a project you completed being used by someone else to turn sa profit, maybe even used in some way you vehemently disagree with, without giving you a dime is unethical and needs regulation from that perspective.
The Last Kingdom. Better than Vikings.
Mrs. Maisel is one of the funniest shows I’ve seen.
Maybe that’s just what dancing is for man of his extremely advanced age.
