I think more game studios (namely those who produce freeware and FOSS games) should be funded via crowd-tipping sites like Patreon or Liberapay. That way, they can receive a regular income while giving there games away for free. It seems like a better way to do the donationware model than just one-time donations. It might even be better than relying on game purchases, depending how often people buy your games.

@deprecated_ii Years back I found some people who came up with a decent solution to this issue. The called it "technostism"/"technism", or "Vyrdism". Of course it has been forgotten thanks to multiple factors, which is a shame because it seems like the most realistic solution to the automation issues we're dealing with now.

In a nutshell, people should group up and invest in the AI companies as a sort of free market alternative to UBI, and use the infinitely-increasing profits to buy their own robots, printers, etc. to become self-sufficient. I remember IvantheHeathen on youtube came up with a similar solution involving crypto or something instead of actual stocks.

(I would also recommend abolishing state-enforce unemployment - i.e. "minimum wage".)

All video games should delete your save file upon dying. Otherwise, how can it be called a game when there is no losing condition.

So let me get this straight, when there is a war happening half-way across the world, all of the sudden, college students start an insurrection, yet when these college students were forced to take the jab a few years ago, they stayed silent. I really don't understand why these students decide to stand up to something that doesn't even apply to them when a few years ago, many of them either had to choose the vaccine or working McDonald's for the rest of their lives, and some of them who took it ended up working at McDonald's anyway due to the mass layoffs.

And before anyone asks, no I am not pro-Israel. In fact, I've been saying for the longest time that both sides of the war are being controlled (look up Albert Pike and the Three World Wars).

They showed a commercial for that hyper-pozzed Fallout show before my anime movie. Night ruined.

@djsumdog but we already have child labor camps: it's called public schools and for most children it's the equivalent of mentally chipping rocks every day, without payment. possibly while being bullied by some asshole and the jail guards are doing zilch as it's too much of a hassle.

Libertarians of Fedi. Should we bring back child labor?

Adding the difficulty curve to the game by making it so that certain enemies only appear in certain levels. For example, for the first four levels, only the slimes and skeletons appear.

I really hate that there are so many people who use Windows only because "the Linux community is infested with trannies."
