  • The rural population isn’t the issue, it’s suburbia which is where the majority of the US population lives.

    It’s not dense enough for public transportation to be viable and it’s zoned in a way that makes pedestrian traffic a non starter.

    Suburbia causes a lot of problems. I understand why it exists - owning a house with a yard is nice. I personally wouldn’t want to give that up to live in an urban environment if I didn’t have to





  • In the era of social media it’s become common for someone’s racism views posted on their personal social media to get forwarded to their professional relationships (employer, clients) leading to fallout, for example.

    This is an attempt at stifling that sort of thing. When this first started the people on the receiving end complained about ‘freedom of speech’.

    They where told freedom of speech isn’t freedom of consequences.

    This is Floridas attempt at getting rid of the consequences by silencing free speech, ironically.














  • I argue that the feel of BotW is a return to Zelda origins. It’s the most any game has felt like the original Zelda.

    There original Zelda game was a game about exploring a giant over world to find it’s secrets. The dungeons weren’t puzzle filled, they were essentially just combat challenges.

    … It’s that feeling that you are setting out on a difficult journey of exploration across a giant world with no support.

    Every Zelda game since the original has felt smaller in comparison because the role of the over world got shrunk to just a thing to connect dungeons.

    My favorite is AlttP which I think has the best balance between dungeons and over world exploration, but I prefer over world to modern dungeons we got in skyward sword and such.
