I was mostly surprised because Spelunky 2 is so much harder, and Spelunky 1 is already hard enough for a newcomer.

Diabolical to recommend Spelunky 2 to someone who hasn’t played Spelunky 1

I mean, it’s free. For the longest time they were great. Though, It even looks like if you scroll to the right, you can make a circle just fine

Would not recommend Crypt of the Necrodancer, considering barely anybody ever beats the game even by default, and then completing the full story is far too hard to not be frustrating

avoid these run ruining pickups because you happened to forget what THAT weird egg looking thing did with a different weird looking egg thing.
The stupid behavior of X item sucks is part of the fun of the game and why it’s so great, though. You pretty much forget all those broken runs you got, but I’ll never forget the times I found Plan C or used the Bible on Satan. I also think you’re missing that repentance modernized all this and there’s even fewer bad items than before. At this point there are only a handful of truly bad items.
Hades is great and holds your hand, but the fact that every upgrade is more-or-less the same type of skill addition to your build is also boring.

I think the mistake here is thinking it’s about “things” or material objects. Most people interface with money at a basic level: you can buy a new jacket, reliable car, a sizeable home, etc. However, at the level that you are with these billionaires, it’s no longer about having things or owning things. It’s about having more power to do things.
For example, there’s are some fun little calculators where you can calculate all the things that some could spend their money on neal.fun/spend/ www.spend-elon-fortune.com
At this point it’s an imperialist kind of mindset, where you want to own multiple corporations, properties, and show it off to your wealthy colleagues that you are the best at X. It’s probably not unlike how professional athletes will destroy their bodies with steroids to become the best in the world, just the negatives are externalized.

retired boomers went and volunteered at chain restaurants
Source on this? This sounds insane

Yea the picture is not related at all. Elder care is bleeding their money dry, they’re not choosing to spend it on lavish vacations.
Once you get to a point where you run out of insurance and health savings, you have to go to Medicaid, which will take your house and the rest of your savings after you die. (And if you try to give your house to your child before you die, unless you do it 5 years before enrolling in medicaid you will get a huge delay in services)

And electric car parts. It’s an engineering / machining company, you would be very hard pressed to find any companies like it that don’t work with the largest source of funding in the world

This isn’t :(
I understand that we are angry, BUT we know nothing about this guy – the company seems like a small niche manufacturing business. The guy isn’t some super elite C-suite executive, he’s just a high-level manager/director. Maybe he was an asshole. Don’t know if he is guilty of anything though
