Internet used to be an escape from the real world.
Now the real world is an escape from internet.

Imagine being two years old and your mom sits you down in a cushioned rocking chair in front of her new windows 98 PC. Somewhere along the way this is one the first programs she teaches you how to use and due to not understanding what time is yet really, or perceiving as an adult would, exploring these halls proves to be an infinite adventure.

A vote for Trump, a third party candidate, or no vote at all, is a vote for a dystopian future.

Christ that game was amazing, wasn't it.
Easily in my top 3 of all time. Maybe even #1.
I don't play Elite: Dangerous anymore, but I still occasionally play UT, even after 20 years.
And THIS quote from the video: "The bots are still highly effective at killing you off, especially on Adept and higher difficulty levels. And Steve Polge's bot tech remains some of the most human-like deathmatch AI I've ever seen in gaming."

One of titles someone can have nostalgia for is Settlers IV, which came out over 20 years ago. I think it's one of the best installments in this classic series of economical RTS games. You expand, build, search for resources, gather resources, turn them into useful items, recruit soldiers, use magic, fight. Modern Anno's are better than modern Settlers, but it was different in the past. There are 5 factions: Romans, Vikings, Mayans, Trojans (in the expansion) and the Dark Tribe. You play differently with each of them, like in the newest Age of Empires. There's a heavy focus on economy and production. You watch as your little settlers walk around carrying things, making things and using things. There are campaigns, scenarios, random maps and multiplayer. The upcoming game will simplify everything, instead of expanding, that's why I don't like it.
Global economy doubles in product every 15-20 years. Computer performance at a constant price doubles nowadays every 4 years on average. Livestock-as-food will globally stop being a thing by ~2050 (precision fermentation and more). Human stupidity, pride and depravity are the biggest problems of our world.
