I could read the lifework of Marx, but it wouldn't change the unviability of planned economy. My parents and grandparents lived in one.
If we ever stumble upon some kind of mathematical or technological miracle, able to predict the future, I'd be worth to try again. Until then, socialism is a dangerous cult.
"In Marxist philosophy, the dictatorship of the proletariat is a condition in which the proletariat, or working class, holds control over state power. The dictatorship of the proletariat is the transitional phase from a capitalist and a communist economy..."
Except, there's no such thing as a communist economy, so the transitional phase lasts as long as there's capital to reallocate. Then peoole start to flee across the barbed wire and the facade falls down.
All kinds of people fatasize about the end of times. From the losely asociated groups of rednecks, to the religious cults. The rich just has a better budget for their hobbies, and their toys are more visible. Which, paradoxicaly, disqualifies them from the prepping game.
Number one rule about the secret bunker is not telling anyone about the secret bunker.
The first original recovery image did not support ethernet connection. Steam wouldn't let you through the initial setup. Not sure if there's an updated image available these days.
rest of it reads like a copy-paste about the dangers of 5G cell towers
I was just about to say boo-hoo, a dog gone bald, but 85 decibels measured from outside your window is brutal. There's a reason these farms are mostly built in the middle of the desert, on the oil fields, or near a dam, with no residential housing nearby.
Yeah, every medical emergency in town will be blamed on Mara from now on, but I'm not even mad. They've got themselves into this mess. For those who don't know, they've built their entire marketing on being compliant with regulations :D
The whole thing is awfully similar to the wind turbine controversy. The reasonable people spend years assuring the public that the windmills are not going to kill them, and then somebody comes up and says "Great! We're gonna build our windfarm right next to these houses".
Fellow macaque here. Not only that, but time does not even run 1:1 between 2 places in our own universe. Plus, there are all kinds of quantum fuckery, where we can't really detect all the properties of a certain particle, or the particles act like waves as long as they do not interact with anything, because... who knows?
Before the steamdeck came out, I've been actually thinking about buying an android handheld console. The fact that the most android games were pay2win convinced me to wait for something better.
However, getting an android app support, that's reliably set up, by someone else than me, and basically for free would still be nice!
Honestly, we should call FPS games for what they really are... point and click.
