He's not a fed elephant buddy .. or probably not.
No, this is the intention of the entire Epstein thing. Also Israel. Also maybe Ukraine.
There are not two parties. There may be a couple of different actors behind the scenes (CIA, MI6, Mossad, Bilderberg, WEF, etc.) who hand out different scripts to their little puppets and might work at slight cross purposes against each other, but in general whoever these powers are seem aligned in keeping everyone outside of the $1 billion club fighting among themselves.
This person you're arguing is likely the most danger type of actor of all: The True Believer. An identity tied to a figure, whether that be a church or a mosque or a Hollywood mogul or an Elon or an Orange Man .. the faith in a cult of personality or organization is what helps turn off that frontal part of your brain to reject obvious problems presented before you. It's a natural defense mechanism. It's the way religion is created.
The MEGA-MAGA base splits apart and yells and screams and do not even notice the fake left and fake right use that outrage to further enslave them.
The United States is currently trying to introduce legislation similar to the UK Online Safety Act. Both parties support this. No one is talking about it.

I noticed now that I made the game too easy by having the player heal between levels. To somewhat compensate, I increase the prices of the white and blue swords. Maybe they should be even more expensive.
I also realized that while the bosses take a while with the wooden sword, they are easily cheesed with the blue sword so I think it should be pretty expensive.
Balancing difficulty is basically the only thing I have left to do. I could release this game unbalanced, but since permadeath is a key feature, I want to make it so that you can lose and probably will on your first playthrough, but not have it so that winning is impossible. Though there was a Japanese PC game known as Xanadu which was infamous for being popular, but having very few people actually beat it, so maybe I could do that.

Improved the shading in #MakeRoom which is a lot smoother and softer now, and more efficient to render! ✨
Age verification is creating an information desert.
The Online Safety Act sets every UK user to child as default.
Teenagers? Blocked. Adults? Content denied unless we do age checks with unregulated companies.
It's not just porn! News on Gaza and Ukraine is being scrubbed from view, threatening #freedomofexpression as well as #privacy ⛔

@zenhob It really is. Venture capitalists and companies have spent billions and billions on a tech that has no future in any of the things they've been spending on it doing. LLMs can have uses, but not one single one of them is anything these corporations are trying so hard to force them into. They will never -- no matter what -- ever be able to become true AI and will never successfully perform as well as alternatives in any of the things they're using them for.
What scares me is it may be another housing market crash type of thing if everyone lets this get much further. Governments are already starting to become receptive towards it. I'd love to see corporations knocked down a peg, but chances are they'll just get subsidies to support them when this fails.

>who obviously has some kind of seething hatred towards straight people.
Ironic, given that the Earthbound ROM hack he made back in high school is infamous for Dr. Andonuts' "eat shit, faggots" line.
@hachi @zeroraining107 @LukeAlmighty Most community gardens require you to pitch in in order to be able to take some of their food. Otherwise, you would have greedy, fat leaches who just take everything.
So it seems like most people agree with me that $5 is a reasonable price. I'm going to go with that, then. I just need to balance the difficulty and compile a Windows binary along with Linux and I'm done.
Though I wonder if the recent situation on itch will affect any potential sales, even though my game doesn't contain porn and the current situation isn't itch.io's fault because I bet some people are boycotting itch anyway.
