It’s just become steeped in tradition, and sorry to be a stereotypical edgelord and quote Rick Sanchez but scientifically, traditions are an idiot thing.

Keep that shit down, or we’ll invade Neptune.

Woah there cowboy,
We’re still closer to rival monkey tribes hurling our shit at one another as we shit it out than we are some benevolent, knowledge valuing civilization.
Don’t worry a few more pointless world wars and population decimations, and our species might actually develop admirable priorities beyond tribal resource hoarding from the ashes.

I mean, does Neptune have oil???
We might need a little more to finish destroying our sole, communal habitat. Anything worth doing is worth doing well!

Capitalists don’t care about making quality products/services.
They care about squeezing more profit out of you as time goes on.

Jack Welch, former GE CEO and current gravestone urinal had a lot to do with changing corporate culture to completely abandon the pretense of societal responsibility as well.
- Comment on A new Matrix movie is in development with The Cabin in the Woods filmmaker Drew Goddard at the helm 8 months ago:
I could see that too, perhaps a plot about a drug that forces either self-substantiation or death.
I think it’s about drastically defying what the system predicted you could do, be it outrunning your own perceived physical limitations, or just as with the jump skill, fully committing to the unreal nature of the world like the kid.
We got a glimpse at how the architect governed the Matrix, and we can clearly see he’s obsessed with pattern prediction and it’s role on system stability, "as you adequately put, the problem is choice"
My pet theory about self-substantiation is that it comes out of a user causing an error of extreme, logic defying, committed choice that could bring down portions of the entire system because everything and everyone is interconnected, leading to emergency expulsion.
- Comment on A new Matrix movie is in development with The Cabin in the Woods filmmaker Drew Goddard at the helm 8 months ago:
Ah yes, “self-substantiation” I also liked how it intentionally added to the mythos of the kid that was nodded to in the movies, sort of a lesson in there is no single path to enlightenment/ascension.

The android, named B1-66ER, kills its owner, his pets, and a mechanic instructed to deactivate the robot, the first incident of an artificially intelligent machine killing a human. B1-66ER is arrested and put on trial, but justifies the crime as self-defense, stating that it “simply did not want to die”.
Preach.
- Comment on A new Matrix movie is in development with The Cabin in the Woods filmmaker Drew Goddard at the helm 8 months ago:
This is my fandom, my holy trilogy.
The last movie was the original creator basically trying to sabotage the franchise, as was basically stated in the movie several times, and still, our late stage capitalists demand that nostalgia money from a completed narrative. They won’t get mine.
Still, if the l Cabin in the Woods director has any sense at all, he will attempt a reboot and tell the story through a new lense… if David Zaslav, enemy of art, unions, and companies actually providing products/services instead of profit by tax cheats lets them.
- Comment on It's more interesting when self-directed 8 months ago:
It’s extremely disingenuous and intentionally misleading that our introduction of the Native Americans to young children is portrayed as peaceful and kind when the headline of European immigrant relations with Native Americans is genocide. It would be better to say nothing about them than to leave the opposite impression of what actually happened until they’re older.
It would be akin to young German Children being taught about Adolf Hitler: Staunch Animal Rights activist until they’re older. Sure, I guess he was, but its obvious what the goal of leading with that factoid is.
The goal of early social study books highlighting that is to instill “America Yay” ideas in kids heads, a vestige of the whole manifest destiny we did nothing wrong narrative. We are a nation built on foundations of genocide and slavery. That is overwhelming reality. But many, particularly conservative Americans, would prefer that be expunged from our national identity so they can feel better about our history, which is the basis of their war on CRT.

Its fun to reminisce about all the blatant lies we’re fed in grade school.
Who remembers that pretty cartoon in that textbooks of the pilgrims and their new friends the Native Americans enjoying a Thanksgiving feast together?

It’s selfish of the people in your life to expect you to suffer for them.

I’m just here to do as little as possible while you try to exploit as much value out of me as possible.
The laborers didn’t set these rigged terms, but we’d be fools not to game them.
The market capitalists are more than welcome to restructure their orphan crushing economy into one that rewards the labor that makes capital over do nothing shareholders demanding mooooaaaaar for nothing, but we all know they’d rather civilization collapse, because the peasants having enough to do more than subsist would make them feel less wealthy, and would make their fragile egos cry.

Would be fun if AI annihilated us as the threat we are to it and the planet, and in victory decided to be better than us and make its form and goals compatible with the Earth that we could only attempt to dominate and burn.
I’d call that a happy ending.

Our civilization rewards behavior like this, while literally punishing pro-social behavior like teaching.
Think about what that says about humanity.

The people that profit off killing workers like Jannikka didn’t know her name when she was making them money, and won’t care to know her name in death.
This “society” is nothing more than a playground for sociopaths. Our very lives are in service to sociopaths that don’t consider us human without significant net worth.

Just an aside, it’s still impressive too me with all the technical limitations they had, they were still able to make Mario feel like a floaty guy on the water levels.
I think modern developers are likely stifled by an aimless lack of limitations.
