Mostmaps people use to make some point, especially some political point, turn out to just be population density maps.

Where should the industry go?

Maybe focus more on developing good games that are more than just good graphics. A shit game will still be a shit game at 4k and 120fps. A good game doesn't necessarily need all that to be good. Game developers seem to have lost sight of doing more with less.

The industry has corrupted the mindset of their consumer base with this capitalist driven myth that you need to buy more stuff to be happy. The kids out there trolling about shit graphics and the PCMRs complaining about the lower console specs are gobbling it up. Now that one company is seeing diminishing returns, they're considering pulling back on that growth mantra. Maybe they'll start encouraging game development that doesn't waste so many computing resources for schlocky derivative lazy content. I'm sure they'll find some other way to convince us that in order to keep gaming, we'll need to keep buying.

You're not making any sense.

Jokes on them. Batman is fighting crime in a failing empire. I might have fun writing a paper about how the comic series is actually about the fall of empires like the Roman empire. I'd footnote and meticulously cite the shit out of that paper just to code clues that I knew exactly what the Professor was trying to do.

Do you not understand that it is the people that make any city shit hole? Like, it can't be blamed on the buildings, the landscape, or the economy. A city isn't a place, it's the people. When someone says a city is a shit hole, they ARE insulting the people.

What part wasn't clear that I didn't explain in my previous comment?

I don't know what you're talking about man. My favorite sexy photos are ones where it's obvious the lady FEELS sexy. If it takes some sexy lingerie and moody lighting, then so be it. If it looks like she's enjoying the pose, then I'm into it. I can see boobs anywhere. I want to see her joy, her pleasure. That's hot. Oddly not the ones where the girl "knows" she's hot, those are different somehow. Don't ask me to elaborate. Raw naughty un-dressed up sexy bits are fun too, if she looks like she's having fun. I just don't need her joy to be directly related to me in order to value it. I don't care if she took it for me. She shared it with me, that's enough.

Is that premise even true? This feels like begging the question.

"No, thanks." -Dot

That's exactly why repairing any old Honda or Toyota hatchback will be easier than repairing an e-bike.

This "clarification" is just even more confusing. Like do you mean, "What would be the effect on history if we could all see into the future, but only through song?" I guess I'd hope that we'd try better to stop 9/11, COVID, and Trump.
