Can't stand trying to pilot a spaceship on controller myself. Flight Sims were invented on mouse and keyboard, so I'm a little disheartened that Mobius didn't implement dynamic thrust for keyboards, so that they can stop recommending controllers for what is essentially a space sim game.

Very bizarre. I didn't watch the 3 hour video because it was a 3 hour video. But, it seems like a very uncharacteristic rant of his, compared to all of his previous videos. Hell, even the latest one, which is the one I linked, is just showcasing all of the sheer number of preventable and careless movie accidents, and is very well put together. The comments were completely different to what you see now.

I see too many of these expose videos popping up on a weekly basis. Whose next? Babish? Civvie 11? Day 9?

At this rate, we're not going to have any YouTubers left to watch.

I watch Magic and that's it. Why? Because the game is too damn expensive.

And no 4 player Commander except on the client that is built on Windows 95 technology.

Jace is compleated, so I doubt it.

Country size has a huge impact on the ability to make sweeping changes to infrastructure and public opinion. A country the size of one US state can do whatever they want and it's not going to take 50 years to implement.

South Korea has broadband everywhere? Sure, they are a rich country the size of Indiana and lacing all of that fiber is trivial compared to the entire land mass of the US, or worse, Russia or China. Governmental demands scale much differently the larger the country, and tax doesn't scale in a 1:1 manner to its land mass.

Both of these takes are extremely cynical, and should be taken with a grain of salt. Israel's actions with Gaza and the extremely right-wing PM in charge should not define Israel as a country and the reasons why the US has them as an ally, just like how Trump does not define the US as a country.

To be clear, I'm not suggesting that they shouldn't be criticized. But, let's criticize the actions, instead of making up reasons that the US is involved with Israel in the first place.

Mexican cartels are the government, so this isn't surprising.

Spain is also the size of a single state.

Microsoft is big enough that government would force them to pay up. There is just too much public pressure for that kind of disaster to get waved away.

Also, there are nuclear options that are far safer than water-based reactors. WCRs are literally the worst possible design for a nuclear reactor, and we were stupid enough to choose that over dry material reactors in the 60s.
