The implication in the post above mine was that spending many hours in Factorio was a waste of time, and that a better use of time would be to do something IRL.

I simply wanted to express my opinion that playing Factorio is still a form of doing something IRL despite appearances, and that if we were to consider playing Factorio an inefficient use of time then we could make the same argument for reading fiction or listening to music.
I guess I could have structured my comment better without resorting to strawman tactics.
Sorry about that.
- comboy 6y agoI was just entertaining, probably mostly myself. Fantastic of you to consider your comment and not my interpretation as possible reason for strawman appearing in my prev reply. For the record, I consider me just listening to the music with my eyes closed not doing something IRL. (but yes, music, book or factorio can change one and then one can change the world - and working hard on some cool tech, or changing the world, may in fact only be speeding up our demise.... or save us... so we can suffer longer... who knows)
