Definitely the case with Genshin for example. Poster child for me for this new kind of game: always online (even if single player), low barrier to entry, designed to be addictive.

I don't read it as one. Culture, as a context, is important when considering actions of people. And the actions of a company are actions of the people who control that company.

Same as how they gained the market share in the first place - deals with sellers, businesses, governments. In some places, it was more expensive to not bundle Windows with a new laptop than to bundle it. Governments were given deals, supp

It's fully processed. The Webb sees in infrared (0.6–28.3 μm), and the human eye sees in visible spectrum, which is like 380,000 - 750,000 μm, so not the same ballpark at all. I believe that the nebula cannot be seen with the naked eye

In case of most space photos, they are not what you would see with your eyes. Usually they capture data differently that how an eye would, and then visualize that. They sometimes strive for getting close to naked-eye perception, but usually

I think that's okay. I'm not opposed to foreigners at all. What I find a bit strange is that (proprietary) tech provides a backdoor to the user - I think this is something that a reasonable govt would oppose, but of course they ha

For sure. It's decades of legacy, many different versions, footguns and caveats everywhere. I personally like to tinker with it, but I also have to look up basic things like "how to write a for loop" or "how to compare n

That is indeed right. People confuse their own perception of their surroundings with actual changes in the world. We're human beings, with a rich inner world, which always evolves as we age and there is a lot going on in there, both on

The return of the 80s is, or rather was, just a current trend. Next up will be the 90s/00s, which can already be seen in make up and fashion, and I'm sure media will follow soon as well. Wrt/ Hollywood: I think they are not t

The individual perceives no negative effects from their data being sold, and this is I think the main reason why people don't care. And this will never change, so if we leave it up to individual choice, then the data will be harvested

It can be part of a long-term strategy, like sowing the seeds of progress through the cultural effect that the animation itself, and the trade relations have. Or, it can just further fuel the oppressive system that they have, helping them k

That's one of the approaches indeed. I think it has merit, since trade relations create dependency, and dependency can be leveraged to enact change in the other's behavior. At the end of the day though, politics is complex, and it

Which, I think, would be a good thing on mid and longer term. Because the vacuum would create positions to be filled. And Europe does have tech, and especially would have tech, if it were given some room.

Indeed, evolution is basically trial and error, where the trial is life, and the error is (untimely) death. I'd argue that it's not science at all, because what's missing is the coordination behind it. To me, evolution is not
