Neither are you, considering your posts.

I’ll bet $5 we’ll start seeing more CEOs become CVOs, or Chief Visionary Officers, and the current pay for CEOs will switch over to CVOs because AI can’t be a visionary or some bullshit.

I vote for “Long-Term Supported But We Cut The Staff Down To The IT Intern”, or LTSBWCTSDTTITI for short.

How in the fuck is Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance not mentioned yet?

A+++ OST, A+ gameplay, and a surprisingly good story for a Platinum game.

GDP isn’t the end-all be-all for economic performance. Consider that real estate also contributes to GDP, and we have been getting some fucking expensive housing in recent years. It doesn’t equate to more money, so it’s effectively padding our GDP. All GDP does is give a rough estimation of how much a country is valued at best, and at worst it’s a padding game to show who has the biggest number.

If you want a good indicator for how well a country is doing economically, CPI is a better start than GDP - which, by the way, China is fucking decimating the US in that regard. Their reported CPI is around 100 points while the US is at around 300 points. You generally want lower CPI as it indicates inflation if it’s super high like the US.

Because this only harms the ones who aren’t corrupt and doesn’t do anything for the ones who are corrupt.

What they should be doing is getting rid of lobbying and disallowing corporate and business interests in politics, but we fucked that up decades ago, so I’ll settle for forcing politicians to wear tracksuits that have patches from every single person and company that had paid them.

Additionally, you’d use a different kind of light for street lights. On the island of Hawaii, that island specifically has a light pollution law that mandates all street lights have to use an orange light bulb, and they can only be in certain places. It’s amazing because you can see so many stars in the night sky.

If city lights are gonna be on 24/7, we should start to see if we can get traction for reduced brightness and installing less light polluting lights.

Obligatory plug for Godot if you want a FOSS game engine

I guess it’s because it could be he was distributing them? Sort of like how somebody a ton of drugs gets more than taking them.

Personally, it doesn’t make sense to me either. Anybody who sexually abuses and/or records kids in lewd situations should get the death sentence.

That’s a state problem, and it’ll never happen because they also operate either Central Pacific Bank or American Savings Bank over here - I forget which specifically. They basically run one of the biggest local banks here in addition to having a large monopoly on power across most of the islands.
