The problem here isn't that the games are bad, it's that people are being taken advantage off. A lot of effort goes into making these games as enticing to spend to spend money as possible, which leads to people spending more money on them than they can afford. Vulnerable people are being taken advantage off, and that's not okay.

It's not really passive income, though. You have to get people in there and interview them. Even if you just spend 10 minutes per applicant, that's already 600 minutes, or 10 hours. So yes, this is a decent hourly wage, at least until word gets around about what you're doing, which it will, because what kind of job interview is done in 10 minutes? Not one where you actually have a chance.
And yes, I do realize this post is most likely a joke. Still fun to reply to, though.
No, it's okay to keep your head down.
The Great Depression.
Your behavior would have gotten you kicked out of a high school debate club by now.
Austria was annexed before the war.
That was quite dishonest of Rooty.
Nobody claimed that he is. Or was Rooty's comment edited?
So wait, what things make me a pathetic coward?
It's not the fact that you don't have power, it's the how you'd yield it if you had it. Because even if you'd have power, you'd be too scared to yield it. Want to prove me wrong? Answer me this: How do you think global warming should be solved? Or outline how society could be improved in general? Up to now, you only told me how you'd not solve global warming. Only told me of things you'd avoid doing. Show me some things you'd do if you had power of an absolutist monarch.
I'm judging you based on what you wrote about your position, which is all I do know about you, as well as what you chose to broadcast about yourself. And you paint yourself as a pathetic coward. You're absolutely pathetic, even without comparing you to anybody else.
Should we stop pumping oil right this very minute? Do you think the world will be ready by 2050 to effectivly ban the sale of fossil fuel? We are yet to globally REDUCE carbon emissions, we’ve only decelerated so far and by a tiny amount. We are no where near ready to make the change. Unless you are willing to cause a massacre by shutting off the oil wells?
And a big reason why we, as a species, have not made any progress on that front, is because of cowardice. Decisions are being made by people who stand to profit from fossil fuels, or are too scared of the economic consequences of combating fossil fuel dependency. Even though the transition itself would help mitigate those consequences, e.g. new jobs created for green energy development would offset jobs loss due to the necessary structural change.
I want things to be better, you’re right. And we all play a part in improving it. Right now I actually work in solar power infanstructure, is that pathetic? I vote against fossil fuels, and I am happy my country is cutting off gas and forcing people to be more electric.
Individual action, while laudable, will not help without systemic change, which you are too scared to advocate for.
Game is "Vintage Story". It's similar to Minecraft, but slower paced.
A small workshop with 2 machines, build using the Create Mod as part of the 'AllTheMods8' modpack. I like how the energy logistic looks naturally more interesting compared to other tech mods.
