Crash Nitro Kart and some of the PS2 Crash platformers are pretty good. The Kart one has a boosting system that I like better than mario kart (and better items and vibes tbh)
Well, a server has to be running software that, you know, serves stuff. Listens and responds to network requests. They do usually also have different hardware-- no need for an integrated screen or keyboard!
Poll is inaccurate garbage because it's asking whether people agree with Trump's fake goals that he claims to want instead of his actual goals that he's actually doing
Ah, I see what the article got wrong now. They think he actually wants to implement those policies instead of just being evil for no reason and using those as a guise.
Did you read his response?
Oh, they care now that it finally hurt them?
Whatever, at least maybe they'll do the right thing for the wrong reasons next time.
"better" =/= "utopia"
I'd go further and say that you can, but might not
I can submit a post to Lemmy by mentioning the community handle in my post
That's why I thought you came from Mastodon; they have the same feature.
I suppose that's fair. Most people I know who do this do it for cis people as well though.
Yeah, therapy is not a viable solution for broad societal issues
Whoa, is this from Mastodon?
I figured using "government" would result in some disconnect, but I'm not sure what else I would call a centralized authority responsible for making and carrying out societal decisions.
Anyways, it doesn't matter if I'm part of the government. The issue remains.
Only if there's a viable path to transition to that state, and it's a stable state. It could also only be a local minimum. The effect you're describing is real, but there's no guarantee that it will lead to your proposed societal system, and furthermore there's no guarantee that the effect is deterministic and will necessarily lead to the same solution unless it is the only solution.
Fair enough. I think you're right to question these things; people have very strong opinions with hard lines here, but I don't think there's always solid reasoning for why some things that may seem like an obvious hard line are considered one.
Right, but I could not get a job unless it's first been created by the government. What if the government doesn't want to create a job that's necessary? What about jobs that aren't necessary, but are still desirable? If I have artistic skill, would I get an appropriate amount of work vouchers? Would skill factor in at all, or only time spent working? What is my invcentive to be efficient if skill is not a factor? If skill is a factor, who determines what "skill" is? Do we vote to make 10 furniture maker jobs and one "expert furniture maker" job with appropriate salaries?
You don't have to answer all of those, I'm mostly just saying that this would result in a LOT of centralized control, which would have to be handled with a large amount of nuance, and that deciding these things by vote isn't likely to work (see also, the most recent election).
All work would be paid for? Who decides what "work" is?
