Damn, I should have checked before I posted that video, lol. I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks of it every time I see this meme format.

No, just more emotion in the animations. You know how real people will sort of look up & to the left or something, maybe put their finger or hand up if they're trying to remember something? Or they'll look around and move their head a little, scratch their chin, etc. if they're thinking. Or they'll scrunch their eyebrows up and look at the ground if they're sad?

That kind of thing.

Starfield doesn't feel unfinished or barebones at all to me. There's a ton of great quest content, the art is top notch, and I haven't seen a single bug in 30 hours.

A lot of that stuff existed alongside IPAs like Dogfish Head for years. The explosion of IPAs in recent years coincides with the rise of Tree House Brewing, who may not have invented the New England IPA, but certainly mainstreamed it. At their second brewery, you'd see license plates from all over the country and you had to either show up 3 hours before opening or wait 3 hours in line. It was insanity. They were selling out every day at $15-20 a can back in 2014. They made stupid money, and their expansions since then will tell you all you need to know.

Anyway, within a year, the copycats started appearing, and that's when the IPA craze really took off.

Can also be sprayed on your undercarriage to repel road salt & water during the winter and prevent rust, though it's not legal in every state.

Or just bring it to Walmart.

Check out Affinity Photo. Doesn't do everything Photoshop does, but it's a hell of a lot cheaper and lighter.

I'm sure you'll be able to eventually... just wait for the appropriate expansion & a sale.

Marx believed in the natural progression of economic systems, from feudalism to mercantilism, mercantilism to capitalism, and capitalism to... well, something else anyway. Socialism, communism, fascism, and really any of the other isms that came about in the late 19th and 20ths centuries were meant as post-capitalist systems. Marx of course was a proponent of socialism or communism, but it's not a foregone conclusion that one of those will be the preeminent system after capitalism.

Anyway, my point is that the USSR et. al. were too early to the game. Capitalism hasn't yet run its course naturally.
