I watched a cool video that covered this/the history of wall coverings not too long ago! Been a few weeks, but I think that old style involved horsehair mixed with plaster that they basically just slopped onto the walls.

Kinda just DARVO, isn’t it?
Tencent is huge as well. Though only around 50% of their revenue is from gaming.

Funny thing is, if they decided policy this way I’d guess it’d be more representative than the House of Representatives for California.
There are discord-matrix bridges the last I checked, but I never got around to actually setting one up so not sure how difficult that would be. Also not sure what limitations there are.
Well here’s the thing. Rich people are kinda dumb.
I have this saved on my phone as a “quick troubleshooting guide”
Eh, for desktop I’d say we’re just about there now. For people who don’t use their computers for much more than gaming and web browsing Bazzite works pretty great. Helped a friend who doesn’t do much more than that build a PC and install an OS and they seem to be doing fine with it, no complaints so far.
You win some, you lose some ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I mean in general, “read things -> learn” is a good approach to life imo.
The site’s about page states the book summaries are AI generated for books the site owner has not even read, and uses Amazon affiliate links. What is even the point of this?
I watched this video essay on this topic not too long ago that I really enjoyed (one of the best video essays I’ve seen so far imo) that I think you might find really helpful and insightful as well! If you end up watching it, let me know what you think: https://youtu.be/4d0Q64SQujY
So in other words, gamers are rising up?
Yes, exactly. Its killing problem solving ability and learning. Taking the extra time to search around and figure things out helps you learn. Not to mention its poisoning its own well, making legitimate answers harder and harder to find on the web.
I don’t think its a matter of stowing empathy as much as it is redirecting your energy. I still empathize with those people, but I try to focus energy on my immediate life and the people around me, and thinking about how I can help and improve their lives, support them best, etc. rather than doom scrolling and despairing. Because with the people directly around me I can have a much more tangible impact. I’d like to work up to having a more systemic impact too, but I’m still figuring out that part. But I think its helpful to have a solid base to work from first, you know?
Yes the literacy rate has actually been dropping IIRC.
Sounds like the game wasn’t exactly finished. Plus its just one project they finished at a studio, they could certainly have used the employees to work on a different new project.
