  I remember when Microsoft bought GitHub everyone was worried.

  And then, they actually made it a little better while not burning it down.

  There was a time during the 2010s that seemed like big companies had learned not to ruin a good thing.

  While this is a great detailed explanation, it still sounds like very poor decision making that would be obvious to anyway except out of touch execs.

  To be fair it does work out sometimes. I found metal gear rising revengence to be an amazing game. So that’s what I do with his games, try them hoping to hit a home run. My original comment was about wishing it was more likely.

  But I play games to enjoy the story, the art of game making is about telling a story in an interactive way.

  More like a patience issue.

  I just don’t have the time to invest in something that I don’t find fun for the sake of it getting fun later.

  God I wish his games were better.

  I’ve tried to get into them many times, and everytime I find the experience to be soooo lacking.

  It’s sad cause when he does get it right, the game can be really good, but he focuses too much on things he thinks everyone wants, like very long cut scenes.

  Something most people miss is that the speed of change is a barrier.

  You can do socialism fast or slow, the fast way is like a revolution, which most people don’t want since it sucks for the individual.

  The slow way, which imo is the better way, is just doing policies that get you closer and closer to socialism within the capitalist framework.

  The second way often means helping people who are less fortunate than the average person first, before getting to your average voter. That’s what individualistic societies can’t get past, they want their lives improved now. They fear they will vote for things that benefits poorer people and then the next government would come in before it’s their turn.

  IMO the solution to this is obvious, focus on policies that literally benefit everyone. Don’t do select benefit programs, do problems that help everyone. UBI is a perfect example.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I wonder why the world is on fire? A mystery⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  IMO the challenge isn’t convincing them about socialistic policies, it’s convincing them to vote for less exciting candidates with low chances of winning in the immediate future.

  FPTP is the real issue imo, it only allows the most bland and diluted policies through very slowly while market conditions change things rapidly.

  But it does provide nothing. Whatever AI gives is a hallucination, that’s practically nothing since it’s not information you can rely on and you have to verify it anyway.

  Think about it this way, if you get connected to an AI chatbot instead of a real person, does it feel like the company is giving you their time? Or does it feel like they are giving you nothing?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Real Purpose of Wealth 💸⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  While I fully agree, the meme kind of misses the point.

  Money is power and power is the ability to do what you want. Once you get so much that you can do anything that society allows, if it’s gone to your head and corrupted you, you see the social taboos of society as a restriction on your freedom.

  That’s why they always talk about freedom and that we should be removing social and government barriers, they teacher the limit and honestly don’t know where to go from there.

  What? No. I just meant that we are too much of an echo chamber to have endless polarizing debates.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hello There 😠⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  To be fair it makes sense. If you’re nice, you can rely on that instead of putting in the effort of looking nice.

  If you’re a terrible person, then a nice mask would probably help you far more than the above scenario.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Good morning!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Do we have political arguments on lemmy? Maybe I know where to avoid but it’s more like we are competing on who can rage the hardest vs who has the best dark humor.
