  And finally, when they employ zero people, and no one has any money to buy their product they will have finally hit infinite profits. Seriously though it doesn’t look like we’re doing UBI any time soon and I doubt the ultra rich would kill off everyone on purpose because half the point seems to be to have people they can feel superior too. Are we just going to wipe ourselves out in a weird paperclip maximizer scenario where we pile up a ton of shit no one can actually buy but has to keep being made to make a line go up?

  I feel like 1 had the best vibe, 2 had the best story (but also the worst balance) and 3 had the most fun vault hunter designs.

  Also often updates to prior DLC content.

  While pay has also functionally gone down.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Say hello to Bary⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s still not entierly mass dependant, the point is at a distance based on a ratio between the two masses, if Jupiter were closer to the sun then the point would be inside the sun. Its still impressively massive to pull the point outside of the sun at any functional distance but so could a grain of dust with sufficient distance and a big empty universe to prevent anything else from interupting things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Video game addiction in teens likely stems from preexisting mental health issues⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly, We created an increasingly awful world to live in, its no wonder people want to try and live in a different one as much as possible.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The majority of British citizens would not pass a british citizenship test or even those same customs checks. The customs checks are so broad everyones going to ding at least one flag and the citizenship test has stupid innane stuff like sports questions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your thoughts on this?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They could always use a poster…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨On Black Holes...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  To be fair even our attempts at describing a technically possible but implausably simple version of a blackhole are essentially educated speculation. Although worth noting that black hole like objects did appear in fiction before they were discovered IRL.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meat from EU set to be cheaper as UK axes new border checks in Brexit reset⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Congratulations to the meat sellers on their new increase in profit margins.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨VW introduces monthly subscription to increase car power⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And cybernetics that won’t play adds in your brain until you have a seizure!. Seriously settings like cyberpunk and shadowrun are starting to look good by the standards of what we’re heading for. (Shadowrun is also old enough that you could actually just barely survive on a part time job without sharing an appartment even in the dystopia)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨VW introduces monthly subscription to increase car power⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  For $1000 you could get a small furnace for cintering, a regular 3D printer and some of that special PLA that has metal powder in it that you can print and then cinter into a solid metal piece (The PLA bakes off) and just make the fucking thing yourself.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Byeeeeeee⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You could probably gradually get it moving across the surface fast enough to escape though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Game prices should have increased with every new generation, former PlayStation US boss says⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t forget the game development is increasingly shoving the hardware burden onto the consumer by using poorly made tools to streamline development with garbage optimization which is why a gaming rig now has to be powerful enough to simulate a gaming rig from 10 years ago down to the atomic level but the graphics haven’t gotten appreciably better.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is Banished⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is why you just shoot the fucker and don’t try and do a one liner.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Overheated homes: why UK housing is dangerously unprepared for impact of climate crisis⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  it feels like such an obvious regulation, any unused roof space should by law have one of the following:

  • Heat reflective paint (This is mostly there for particularly fragile roof structures or people who can’t afford the others)
  • Solar pannels
  • Artifical meadow
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  • Super mario world

  • Mechwarrior 4 mercenaries
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Off topic⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeh you can watch at lower volume with subtitles because even if you don’t conciously look at them it still helps your brain interpret the sounds and make up for anything you miss due to the reduced volume.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everything is a problem⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I have this smart lightbulb that I got for halloween last year because I thought it’d be cool to make the porch glow purple for trick or treaters. Now I have to replace it because the app that controls it has decided to try and blackmail me for camera and location access and the bulbs default state without the app is to flash on and off in a way seemingly deliberately designed to cause headaches.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK announces £30 million funding package and tax breaks as it aims to be the 'best place in the world to make games'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Consdiering the PPE, the Ferries, HS2… Spending immense amounts of money on projects that never get finished seems to perfectly align with british culture.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How come nobody does anything about North Korea?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not saying its a good reason, just a reason. We could easily afford it if we took some of that magic money that goes into military funding blackholes or magical infastructure projects that never get built yet somehow break records on cost. Sadly the decision is being made by people with no sense of empathy or value for human life.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How come nobody does anything about North Korea?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  iirc one of the issues is that even if things go perfectly on a military front no one is quite sure how to handle and de-program/rehabilitate 25.5 million people a large quantity of which likely lack any skills that would be useful in western economies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨EA reportedly shelves Need For Speed completely to focus on other projects⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I honestly found heats handling atrocious compared to underground, even the grippiest heat care only just barely approaches the feel.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jeremy Corbyn confirms new ‘socialist alternative’ before next election to fight Starmer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Except Starmer is considered a huge dissapointment and no better than a Tory at this point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ubisoft EULA demanding consumers destroy delisted games adds fuel to Stop Killing Games movement⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  afaik both are unenforceable since you can only read them after paying for the product.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Welcome to the Labour police state⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Which is the point, the last time the UK protested in a big way people were brutall masacred by the government.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So if we're just good with careening into fascism 2.0 what does the future look like?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It always amazes me how radical leftism keeps moving further right. Once upon a time radical leftism meant UBI and immediate radical action on climat change. Now ‘radicall’ leftism is anything left of squads of armed men kidnapping people off the street.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cursed⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Visual proofs can be deceptive, e.g. the infinite chocolate bar.

  Chance as in gambling, so often you don’t even get what you pay for even with ‘reputable’ brands. This is particularly bad with appliances.
