If you die in space, you die in the real world.

Go find all of the armor pieces in the game. Some are quite tricky to find. Then if you want the extra challenge, upgrade all of that armor to its max.

We’re already heading in a direction that mainly benefits those who are already in power. The real impact of these lawsuits appears to be favoring corporations and copyright holders, without sufficient thought to how they might limit individuals like us. People are already anxious about AI taking their jobs, right? But if we keep creating laws that continuously favor the same powerful few, it shouldn’t shock us when the average person can’t keep up. Just to give you an idea, instead of being able to use Large Language Models (LLMs) to make my work easier, I may be forced to completely abandon this tech due to this kind of shortsightedness. LLMs should be a tool available to ALL of us, not just those at the top.

That it went missing due to the controller used. I find it utterly absurd to believe that a submarine of such high caliber could possibly go missing due to a low-grade Mad Catz controller. In my opinion, when you’re dealing with equipment as expensive and sophisticated as a submarine, you’d expect nothing but the most advanced and reliable controls, not some generic gaming joystick. It’s quite a far-fetched conspiracy theory if you ask me.

I feel ya. It’s like there’s this widespread dulling down of folks, and what you’re talking about is a piece of it. I’m spotting it more and more in my day-to-day life. Do folks not remember we’ve got the internet to look up solutions for most stuff? Some of the silly things people do regularly really make you scratch your head. Like, why haven’t we done anything to get us back on track?

Totally with you, pal. The fediverse does feel like it could be the answer we’re looking for. Fingers crossed that the majority will catch on to this too.

Haha, it’s funny how people think centralization will do any good for something that was designed to be decentralized from the ground up. I swear, it’s like folks have totally forgotten what crypto was initially intended to solve.

Well, the irony is hard to miss, right? Crypto was born out of this grand idea of decentralization, but then everyone just rushed over to these centralized exchanges. Kinda sounds like a death knell to me. Seems like the original spirit of crypto got lost in the rush for profits.

I do think the tech and the concept will keep evolving, and eventually, it’ll morph into something new, get a new name or something. Here’s hoping that when it does, people will get that it’s better to trust the collective ‘us’ instead of just a select few. After all, these are often the same folks messing things up. But, what can you do, huh?

Man, I seriously hope you’ve hit the nail on the head. I’m holding on to the idea that good folks out there are all trying to make things a bit less sucky for the rest of us.

I concur with your viewpoint. There’s no doubt that individuals have historically been catalysts for change. However, my concern lies in the recent trend where these change-makers seem to be acting against society’s broader interests.

Take the French Revolution as an example - a time when collective action effectively enforced justice, albeit in a harsh manner. Large groups came together, stood up for what was right, and held the wrongdoers accountable. It’s a compelling case for the power of collective action.

In contrast, the current pattern of individualistic actions appears less beneficial for society as a whole. That’s a trend we might want to discuss and address further.
