how has slow progress worked for you in the last hundred years

This is all happening under the Democrats...

Do you realize that the Democrats have been in power the whole time this full on genocide has been taking place?

Democrats were the ones giving false ultimatums.

Democrats were the ones making excuses and giving the green light.

They're exactly the same on this issue. Do you think Democrats have held Netenyahu back at all?

while you're busy debating whether these are Nazis or just sparkling fascists you'll end up in the same spot regardless

that's just simply not true. if you look at the project lifecycle for a game very little resources are spent in preproduction, the bulk of the time is in production. preproduction usually has all of the core mechanics and ideas implemented by the end, then it's just about executing on that plan. there's not a lot of experimentation and iteration once you are in full tilt production mode

much of a game's development time is spent creating assets, using a new engine doesn't mean your existing low fidelity assets suddenly look better, just better lit

certain essentials are already not subject to sales tax, do you similarly object to that?

I'm down with what you're suggesting but I'm also down with palatable and actionable short term solutions that might actually get implemented and appeal to the voting population

we just need to use natural gas as a bridge fuel trust me, let's just build pipelines and special refineries and special cargo ships that can handle these new fossil fuel supply chains. just a bridge fuel though just until solar catches up don't worry they're just multi decade leases of course we're going to hit net zero trust me just use gas it's clean burning trust me just ship the gas across the world it's the greenest choice there is just trust me

yes and if human well being was the goal over profit. profit benefits the few, and it's an amoral driving force. unfortunately it's been conflated with freedom and fairness.

If your goal is to achieve realistic looking city streets the best way to do that isn't an expensive online infrastructure and much more advanced simulation.

If the developers had the skills and time to do that they could more easily have more dense NPC crowds and richer local simulation.

The reason the games aren't already like that is likely just cost, talent, and target performance, which you'd need a lot more of to execute your plan.

there are lots of systemic forces that incentivize being an asshole as well

Of course in the liberal worldview the only political action is voting and so now that voting is over you go after people who didn't vote or voted wrong and wait four more years until you can (hopefully) vote again.

Instead of retreating with your tail between your legs and waiting for another chance to vote join up with those that are taking direct action through protest and political pressure and fucking riots and strikes.

If more of you joined the anti-genocide voices instead of chanting "vote blue no matter who" your party wouldn't be the milquetoast status-quo-upholding pro-genocide garbage party it is today.

You can punch left or you can stand with the left and build up the power to punch back.
