Last time I played KOPNP2, I saw that you could pay for some stuff, but I never paid for anything. There was a lot of grinding, so maybe they purposefully slowed progress to make paying more tempting. I guess I didn’t finish the game, but I did get pretty far. That is very disappointing of them, though. (UPDATE: I just tried to play the game, and it put a big banner saying I have to upgrade and stops me from continuing my game, I went to the play store to upgrade, and the game is no longer “compatible” with my phone despite me playing for months before… So it is an even bigger problem than in game transactions)

Well, nothing is stopping the super soldiers, with or without open DNA. Most of those are not all that worrisome in any practical way, except employment and insurance. The only real answer for Insurance is single payer insurance at one price for everyone. The way we let insurance companies hold the noose around our necks in the US is flabbergasting. I don’t know for sure that the rest of the world is quite as good as all that, since I’ve talked to people of many countries and never heard one that didn’t have major complaints when they weren’t just trying to dump on the US. I do feel like the US is the worst of the wealthy countries anyway. If we could stop the insurance companies from having the leverage to hold us to the fire, open DNA could facilitate research on lots of medical treatments. So I guess, first put the insurance companies out of business permanently, then open source the DNA. Which I suppose means never at this rate…

I think everybody’s DNA should be open source…

Haven’t played Unciv, but the other two are ones I went long runs of addiction to. I would add Slay the Spire, Knights of Pen and Paper and Merge Maestro to that list.

Thank you. We need to be aware of climate change, but crying wolf and false interpretation of the science isn’t the way to get people on board.

8k is a little high. I feel like 4k is a significant change from 1080p, especially if you use your screen as a computer monitor.

Especially if they come from the invoice department.

A or D… Gotta go with D. They might be watching.

I breathe every day too…

Everybody knows all that stuff. I’m not sure why people make statements like that. Maybe they were ignorant for a long time?

The whole point of tariffs is to make the price high so that American farmers can sell their beef while hiring in the American economy… High prices are the whole goal.

In before they designate these obedience bots as officers and make violence against them punishable by extrajudicial execution.

It has nothing at all to do with religion, not even a little. Without religion, they find a different excuse to do exactly the same thing with no change.

I always thought the metaphor was the easy and fun “it’s all down hill from here” vs the return of the inevitable uphill slog… so the opposite of what OP drew.
