Very few game sequels are that tied in to it’s predecessor narratively that this is an issue. I would say the vast majority of games are designed to be picked up from anywhere in the series.
Even Mass Effect, where you play as the same character throughout a multi game story arc, still has each game giving the player an on ramp, and each game having it’s own miniature arc to play through.
And various local billionaires
The answer to that is very little of it. Their networth is due to their ownership of these stocks. If the value of these stocks dip more than others (and due to the AI craze, they are more inflated than even other tech stocks), they lose collateral to borrow against (this is how musk bought Twitter).
Computers have a life span. Every year, there’s a whole swath of people getting their first one - often for school, which is already prohibitively expensive
There are chips in nearly every single appliance you own at this point. From your car to your toaster.
Hitting the tech sector harder than everything else will remove their ability to leverage their own tech businesses to buy up others.
Which is insane because it was all over the news just a couple years ago about why vehicle prices had gotten so high… Because of a chip shortage.
You think the 3 richest men in the world hanging into his coattails at all times will let him wreck all their businesses in one fell swoop?
Everything he’s done thus far has been at the behest of someone else.
The actual code this church violated has to do with the plot of land, not the building itself. It has nothing to do with safety, and everything to do with the people controlling how others use land they didn’t own.
People who have fully bought into the hard work+talent=success line cannot stand to have that belief shaken by realizing that someone dinner than them lucked/exploited their way to more success than they did.
From the sounds of it he just sucks at all games. The one game we know he plays himself is a little puzzle game that’s on the level of tic tac toe. It’s just a dopamine generator.
As is the mindset of everyone who set out to make a better standard. You don’t seem to be getting that.
How can a building be safe at one point of the day, but suddenly unsafe during another? That sounds like an idiotic code designed to punish exactly this.
Who said there weren’t improvements?
Even in your example of combining two, there’s going to be tradeoffs depending on what pieces they choose from each. Sometimes there isn’t an objectively better thing in all aspects.
That’s… All of them, the dumb fuck. The factories we started building to being done production here, aren’t finished yet. We’re about to have the covid chip shortage all over again.
I think it’s pretty rare that people aren’t trying to make a thing they think is better than what already exists. Even in the comic, they think they’re solving the problem, just like you.
There’s plenty of proof of stake tokens that do not waste all that electricity that mining does
