Agreed. I’ve always read geo engineering to be up there with carbon capture as bullshit.

Even the “modest” cloud seeding or reflective crap in the atmosphere had the addendum of making enormous chunks of the global south unlivable. Which makes them read more as fantasy implements of mass genocide than anything remotely palliative.

It does from time to time. You’ll see “pushed” (ie really good and hard to get) cards come out and enjoy their time and then either they get banned or the synergistic cards that make them format warping get banned.

I don’t even mind that aspect of the product cycle that much. I enjoy they competitive aspect and some strategies can and will be better than others.

But the cards that define the format being inaccessible AND this type of product design that’s endemic to the CCG business model really sucks. And IRL play is so much better than sims, especially if you’re trying to improve at the game too.

I hate the business model of these card games. The gameplay is usually pretty good and the competitive aspect is nice. But the competitive chase cards being at predatory distributions in the product really turned me off to the whole thing.

All the wannabe crypto influencers were quiet on my feed for a while after prices crashed in late 2022. Gen ai bullshit could not have arrived at a better time for them. They all pivoted to being ai experts immediately.

Didn’t he and the uncommitted delegates get kicked out? Unless he joined the clapping seals to cheer the genocide, what’s the issue?

The proliferation of android as a platform has made it too easy for these companies to shit out garbage iot devices that connect to the internet for reasons unintelligible even to God.
