Too bad many of the people in my generation who grew up with GTA games stopped caring since we're all middle aged now anyway.

Also the impact of a new rockstar game today is very different from what it was in the 2000s. There's so much to play now that waiting a year isn't that big a deal when you have a giant library of Steam games.

I work in this area of research. The issue is the headline findings from all of these studies will get reported and people will comment on how it's obvious or offer their own explanation. The truth is that it's a very technical / stats heavy field with a lot of the results depending on the assumptions you make and how you treat the data. The results then have to be qualified with 'there is a positive relationship, given x y and z'. But of course that's usually too complicated to report so all of those details get omitted, and all we are left with is a simple statement followed by hot takes from the general public.

There are plenty of mechanisms that can be employed (as there already are in many countries) to ensure profit is not made from essential living. You either own or have strict rent control which tends to mean many properties are publicly owned. Recreational stay is different, it is part of a hospitality industry which provides an additional service on top of what fundamental housing provides.

I would re think your seating posture. You're probably trapping a nerve or something which means your posture is not relaxed. Also consider alternating between sitting and standing especially if you're playing electric.

Absolutely, there is an obsession with increasing lifespan yet so much that can be done with so much less effort in terms of making people happy and comfortable for what life they have, yet this is generally neglected.

Because the US doesn't make engine immobilisers mandatory like the rest of the world does
