God that's so corporate-coded - instead of fixing your divisions so they are all profitable, just take your two successful divisions and squeeze them like you're trying to get blood out of a stone.

If money is imaginary then why can't we guarantee food, shelter, clothing, and education for every single human on this planet.

The US has never been a country that's good or fair. It's only very slowly gotten a little better through the sweat and blood of good people.

If we want it to get better it's going to be a lot of difficult and painstaking work.

So why even bother with a game engine? Write your rending from scratch and it's as free as you want.

But what if we would rather have an engine that's good?

[–] FaeDrifter@midwest.social 1 points 9 months ago (5 children)

Yeah but then how do you attract game developers to your engine?

It becomes a chicken and egg problem: consoles won't support the engine unless there's a demand for the games, developers won't make the games unless there is support for consoles.

A lot of teens in the US have jobs; I've worked since I was 14. At $10/month that's like 1 fast food meal, and if you use it as your major chat platform that's easily worth it for the convenience it offers you. And teens don't generally have other major bills to pay.

Apple, Google, and Microsoft commit antitrust violations too fast and numerous for the legal systems to keep up.

That and they spy on consumers for the US government so that gives them free passes at a lot of things.

Makes more sense but I assumed you were being sarcastic anyway, which in that context made me lol pretty hard.

This was actually a pretty funny comment and I feel like everyone missed it.

It's 35m deep - for comparison recreational scuba divers go up to 30m deep and professional scuba divers up to 60m deep.

It will have to be well engineered and difficult to repair compared to a land facility, but nothing compared to like the space station.

Very cool idea, after 25 years there should be significant cost savings overall.

Damn you my go-to password in the 2010's was "P4nc4kes!".
