I had some ideas about being given a worth vs cost ratio and being pushed to suicide if it’s low enough, but I am kinda lazy, so here’s an expended versions by AI:
Title: “The Ratio”
Premise: In a dystopian capitalist society where every human life is a calculated asset, an AI-driven system governs the population’s worth. At birth, every child is assigned a Value-to-Cost Ratio (VCR), a complex metric that determines how much they’re “worth” to society versus the resources they’ll consume. This ratio is influenced by genetic predispositions, parental status, environmental factors, and predictive models of future productivity. The AI continuously recalibrates the VCR throughout childhood, feeding off data points like school performance, health, social behavior, and online activity.
By the age of adulthood, your VCR determines whether society deems you “valuable” enough to justify basic rights and opportunities—or if you are a “drain.” The catch? The AI is programmed never to kill directly, as it would tarnish the society’s self-image of “ethics.” Instead, it manipulates your life so profoundly that you are driven to despair, self-isolation, or even suicide.
Mechanisms of Control:
- Invisible Sabotage:
The AI manipulates the job market, ensuring low-ratio individuals never land stable employment. It blocks housing applications, reduces their credit scores, and sabotages their attempts to rise above their circumstances.
- Social Media Weaponization:
Algorithms tailor a specific feed to low-ratio individuals, amplifying isolation, hopelessness, and envy. Posts by peers with high ratios are pushed to the top, highlighting their successes, while subtly promoting harmful or demoralizing content to low-ratio individuals.
- Social Stigma:
People wear devices that display their ratios publicly, fostering discrimination. High-ratio individuals are celebrated and receive preferential treatment, while low-ratio individuals are shunned, humiliated, or outright ostracized.
- “Grace Periods”:
Adolescents with low ratios are given the illusion of a chance to prove their worth in competitive programs or desperate last-chance “reality show” style trials, where failure is engineered to be inevitable.
- “Voluntary Termination”:
The government offers incentives for those with the lowest ratios to “opt out” of society. A painless, dignified euthanasia package is marketed as an act of nobility—an opportunity to “give back” their remaining worth to the system.

According to science were all related to one guy in Africa that lived thousands of years ago. We’re technically all one family.
Joke aside, being part of your family highly depends on how close to that person/group of persons you are. A friend can be more of a family member than your own brother or sister. Relatives you never met or even heard their name aren’t family.

.At least the ebook are under 50$, which makes me believe the author knew his book was like a collectible and wanted to gain as much as possible of money from the people that can afford it (doctors), while also keeping the price affordable for students.
- Comment on Symptoms of arsenic poisoning 3 months ago:
The printed book is way too expensive, but the ebook is relatively decent for a medical book.
If you can’t afford it, there’s also a third option at Anna’s library.

There’s this real story of a Chinese woman thar got hit in the head, went into coma and woke up speaking perfect English (she was an English teacher after all), but the interesting part is that she completely lost her ability to talk in her mother tongue. Let’s imagine that It could be possible that the monster would have had a similar brain injury, but instead of losing the ability to speak, he would to completely forget everything but his OSHA training.

I actually enjoy retro gaming. Earthbound and mother 3 are my favorite games! The professor Layton serie is also great! The thing is, while retro games are a huge source of “free” games, they’re often too hard. I also found myself falling in a rabbit hole with an entire generation of retro games that nobody cares about anymore despite being full of great games : flip phone java games" (j2me). I highly recommend trying them if you want to play games on your phone without being thrown a billion ad and microtransactions. Just play the touchscreen variants and your golden. Some good games are : doom RPG 2 and Wolfenstein RPG, literally any game by digital chocolate.
thanks a lot for recommandation, sea of stars and pizza tower look 👌! and yeah my machine isn’t capable of bigger 3d games. Lol.

Rpg or platformer.
The only way I can access games is by pirating them and I don’t pirate indie games unless they already pretty successful and it wouldn’t hurt them. Yeah, even that 2.99$ is too much when you live in shitty third world country.

Tried braid and got bored real quick. Tried fez and didn’t even continue past the first 30 min Tried Undertale, but basically knew the story already from spoilers, and it was kinda boring, uninteresting and too hard.
Played Crashlands and it was a grindfest that actually made me relieved that I finished the game, only to discover it was planet 1 of 3. 👉Uninstalled.
Really enjoyed fear and hunger despite being shit at the game and ended up just cheating. (Was still freaking hard 😭)
Finished and enjoyed Limbo.
I just want a game with a great story, a gameplay with medium low difficulty that isn’t a grindfest and isn’t too long ( usually caused by the endless grinding).
