Not paying youtube a cent until they remove all the transphobes and quit blasting people with their shit ass bigoted content. I’ll pirate and ad block just to spite them every step of the way. Make your bed with fascists, lay in it.

and we’re soon going to find out if Biden’s student loan forgiveness is going to be canned by fascist ideologues or if the midterms spooked them well enough to handle it correctly. If they decide to pull some shenanigans, there’s a real possibility that we’re staring down the barrel of a 3rd once in a lifetime economic crash from yet another bubble.

I haven’t played Elden Ring (not my cup of tea tbh) but a game that I have have played that also does this is Witcher 3, and it has the same natural feeling progression of doing content at your level as you go through the story, but some things “out of the way” are leveled way up. Never played it super deeply, so I’d guess some of those higher level things are there to come back to during the end game, which to me solves a problem Skyrim had where you could just start a new game and then go slaughter some falmer in a megadungeon before stepping foot in whiterun. Like sure that’s fun to just roll up some flames to the face of everything in front of you, but it took them years and adding in a whole survival system to give a feeling that you need to slow down. Witcher 3 just sort of had this naturally as it was a very well paced and let the story breathe and let emotional beats land and sit with you. I might just be huffing my own supply of hopium right now, but I do hope this is true of Starfield as well.

Yea…everyone joining the same one really defeats the purpose. Now if more than beehaw defederates from them, there’s going to be a mass exodus.

The best way I think is to have specific set of servers with the sole purpose of cataloging. Reddit grew to it’s size organically, and the same would have to happen here for it to actually work. But I think for just internet historical purposes and to drive content here to have something searchable to add some utility early on is absolutely worthwhile.

And on top of that when those “tools” don’t materialize and they’re more overworked than previous mods having to manually squash bots and alt right trolls, even more will bail.

This is why it’s a bubble. It can be guaranteed all the bankers want, if people cannot afford it…they will choose food and a warm bed long before they make that payment.
