That’s how these types of collapses work though.
Everything just barely holds together and then the literally straw that breaks the camel’s back hits and then it all goes to shit in an instant.
They’re keeping it together but at what cost? We can clearly see the social and demographic cost that will hit in a decade, we can see the economic costs hitting but how long till that manifests into something they can’t policy their way out of is a big question.
Well with sports games at least its “a realistic part of the experience”
Like when you watch a live sporting event on TV, there’s always commericals in-between the action. In that sense it fits the meta.
Also, sports games are the worst, pay 80 bucks every year for an updated roster and tweaks to the mechanics.
I have fond memories of doing that when ROTK first released and my local cinema ran the full trilogy as LOTR marathon.
I would love to relive that memory.
This is exactly it.
Cable TV was originally meant to be TV with no ads, see where that has come.
Streaming services were meant to be on demand shows/movies with no ads, see where we are now.
YouTube premium will enshittify the exact same way. How do I know this? They already won’t listen to paying customers and content creators who bring customer to the site. They do customer unfriendly moves like removing dislikes to make a quick buck from big corporations. They will make it shittier given the chance.
Because during bad times the ones that make bad decisions don’t survive or at very least are removed from positions of power.
Bad times by themselves do not create good decision makers.
Death is it’s own problem.
The part that’s less known is smokers tend to have other nasty health problems like COPD where even having a conversation needs a breather and climbing a flight of stairs in one go is entirely outside the realm of possibility.

Environmentally friendly peelable wallpaper
Frankly this is all of them.
They only care about Palestine insofar as it furthers their own political goals. Its low hanging fruit for them to stroke the religious and nationalistic fires in their people and redirect their attention away from issues like the economy and civil rights.
Here are a few reasons why thats not true
People talking about these guys being dumbasses does not equate to people taking climate change seriously.
There is limited bandwidth for publicity, these morons are taking publicity away from people actively doing the research, enacting changes, building things the help mitigate climate change.
They give the opportunity for climate change deniers to lump all climate change activists together with these idiots, allowing them to replace the message of “Act against climate change” to look at all these dumbass climate change activists.
No need to worry. That problem eventually resolves itself as any sub that fails to submerge will eventually get sunk by enemy action and successfully sink in the end.
Yo mama so fat they stopped the search for dark matter
Theologically, all mankind was to blame because of their sins.
But it’s far easier to blame a minority and it had the added benefit of pushing whatever agenda the ruling class had.
This is what peak artistry looks like
This is the new normal for highly developed economies. The best they can hope for is a 1 to 1 replacement of their population. We’re not likely to see another baby boom occur.
We’re not going to see a typical population pyramid any more. Because that means a large infant death rate and either war, disasters or a massive suicide epidemic cutting away the young adult population to get the pyramid shape.
Arbitrary bans from overly sensitive mods? Straight to Jail.
Made a comment about tankies in lemmy getting mad over some news about China getting hit with influence ops by the US. Believe it or not, ban.
Never nuke country twice
This I never understood.
Amazon basically has an international presence. Amazon could easily allow a seller to ship to a local Amazon logistics location and then Amazon shipping could just handle the rest, perhaps with a slightly higher shipping fee.
