It‘s so disheartening to see intelligent and somewhat tech savvy people around me buy into it. They treat these things almost like they‘re living beings and offload more of their own thinking capacity to chatbots. No amount of explaining how this is just one of countless publicity stunts can convince them. They‘re acting like I‘m the one who just doesn‘t understand technology while they‘re letting word salad influence how they think or even IF they think.

The housing bubble that popped in china wiped out twice as much capital for Chinese citizens as the 2008 housing and banking crash in the world. Their standards of living have been decaying since 2020 and there is no sign of improvement honestly. Quite the opposite as tariffs, lower exports, automation and the AI craze drive unemployment.

I’m concerned this will allow China to become even more totalitarian and militarized because they won‘t fear sanctions as much anymore. But on the other hand they won‘t crash the entire world economy when they invade a neighboring nation that way. You lose some you win some but ultimately we‘ll have to see and wait how it plays out.

I too think we‘re long past the point of calling games that released as recent as 15 years ago retro because they simply don‘t evolve in the speed they used to.

Imagine looking back at 1993 when you’re in 2008. Yeah, that’s a huge leap in technology. But look back at 2011 now and you realize that stuff doesn‘t feel nearly as ancient.

From all I know a game needs to be at least 20 years old to be considered retro these days. That‘s the most common definition you will find these days.

Different countries have different type of costumers that are willing to pay different prices. The platform might also be much more popular in some countries vs. others. Amazon has figured this all out by collecting tons of data.

This is also highlights why we need to push back against dynamic pricing. Because it‘s this on steroids.

Right now both are losing points in polls and Merz has no interest in dissolving the Government with such useful henchmen to do their bidding. He might step down but will be replaced by someone from his party. All the while left and greens gain traction against the common main stream media narrative.
