I never played any of the others so I can’t really comment.

I just really loved the living world - it’s why I tried the game after playing Oblivion.

So few games have that - Dwarf Fortress, Ultima and Oblivion still stand far ahead of the rest.

This is stupid and unenforceable.

• Ultima VII
• Baldur’s Gate 1
• Daggerfall
• Morrowind
• Oblivion
• Deus Ex
• Thief
• Ultima Underworld
• Kerbal Space Programme
• Kingdom Come: Deliverance

Honourable mentions for Baldur’s Gate 3, Crusader Kings 2, and Tears of the Kingdom.

Sweden has devalued the currency massively (over 20% since 2020) - so it makes for cheap foreign investment.

Spotify Connect usually works really well, I can use it on Linux, it’s relatively cheap.

I don’t see any reason to switch tbh.

But the lump of labour fallacy is wrong - in the end automation makes us all wealthier as goods become cheaper, and people can do more productive work (and be better educated for it too).

But how would they know? It’s like Blade Runner.

This is the new luddite movement.

It really is. Degrowth is destitution and death - just look at Germany.

We need to decouple electricity production from environmental damage - build renewable power and nuclear power station en masse and invest heavily in nuclear fusion.

Have used maybe 2 cheques, bought a condo share but a house is a whole other matter. That said I don’t think it’s impossible, the main issue is just stability, if I had a partner who earnt as much then it would still be tough but not impossible.

But you can absolutely own your residence OP - just look for smaller places, in cheaper areas, and jobs that would offer a good salary : cost of living ratio. You’ll probably have to start with a condo in a HOA, etc. but that’s better than renting.

The real issue there is that electricity should be carbon-free with nuclear and renewable power.
