The red circle is helpful for me because Stack Overflow’s UI is garbage. I always read the post, and then read the thing under the post, which is a bunch of nerds nitpicking over TLAs instead of an actual answer. Every time I open that site I forget that the answers are underneath the neckbeards, because it’s so unintuitive.

It sounds like you don’t want capitalism. It sounds like you want market anarchism. Look up mutualism some time.

WOW is proof that human beings are biologically programmed to work together to achieve goals. It’s a shame capitalism suppresses this desire in people and forces them to only let it out in games. Imagine if we had a society where people’s work was properly valued, where they could self organise to accomplish great things.

“Yes, we already have more empty houses than homeless people, but I’m sure building more houses is the solution to homelessness. We can’t disrupt the economy, after all.”
We need to instill voters with the courage to vote for actual left wing parties so we can get some politicians in Parliament who’ll just do what needs to be done, and seize the empty houses from the investors and landlords.

Capitalism manufactures scarcity. Even when we have plenty, capitalism must create limits on the sharing of free resources

But it’s not hard.

I haven’t played Morrowind, but I hear that you can connect to an enemy with a hit, and then a die roll determines whether that actually happens. It seems to me that while such a feature would be good for making a character with their own unique strengths, it would be damaging to the immersion required to inhabit that character. Thus, immersion building features that make the character do what the player does, can easily be considered roleplaying features.

That’s what hack and slash means? I thought it was a game where you hack and slash

If Zelda is an RPG then so is Halo. Master Chief and Link both have exactly the same number of thoughts in their heads. I would argue Halo ODST is more of an RPG than any Zelda game.

TES definitely focuses on story over action. Those games have much better lore than combat

Why isn’t 2018 GOW hack and slash?
If I’m an experienced D&D player, will I need to worry about knowing how to build a class? I didn’t have any problems understanding KOTOR’s character creation, and I actually prefer Mass Effect 1’s combat and levelling over 2. I love crpgs.
Assassin’s Creed 1 and 2. I’ve also heard good things about Morrowind but haven’t played it.

The son scammed her. He told her she needed to disinfect peripherals. The tech is just allowing that to happen and charging a not listening to the tech fee.

That would be a great solution, because while I love Typescript, I hate compiled web code. One of the coolest things about the internet is that as it’s supposed to work, you can download the source code for any website you go to. It’s open source by design. I hate closed source websites and I hate compiled website code that helps close the source it’s quite a contradiction because typescript is awesome and I recognise that compilation is the only way to get it to run on our web infrastructure. So it would be great if we could just type JavaScript and solve the contradiction that way.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•I just ask my problem bro...chill....English
2 yearsI’m clearly not understanding the problem, because I think the only answer is 14!. What am I getting wrong?

If I were in Olga’s position I’d go create another Natasha account on the same platform and start making videos saying “Hey, Natasha here. I just learned what things are really like in Ukraine and I’m furious about what Russia is doing to innocent civilians. Putin is an evil man. Also my main account has been hacked, please report it so I can get it back.”
If Natasha is Olga then Olga is Natasha. Olga probably has a case to take over the accounts, given they’re videos of her, and start pushing out antiwar propaganda.
Maybe I like mischief too much
