Noooooooooooooooooooooo

Don't make it triple A, make it indie or at least from a smaller studio. It will be more of the same slop with nothing innovative if it's AAA :(

If Reddit pulls these kinds of moves two more times or so, I'm 100% certain Lemmy will have all the niche communities you'd ever want. This place is much better!

I would have at least visited museums and the likes in cities I can't afford to visit, as well as making food with all the tasty high quality ingredients I can't afford.

Maybe drive around on some expensive motorbike just to see how it feels. If my financial situation at the time was especially dire, maybe take a "loan" from a bank somewhere before unfreezing time.

You'd have to be a saint to have that power and not do anything illegal. But one thing I would never do is fuck over regular people, only corporations and big businesses. After time unfreezes, those can recover from whatever I did and I doubt I'd but a significant dent in their profit margins, but regular people would have to live with the consequences of what I did, so that's a no go.

AllYouPlay and another online game store wouldn't let me register with a protonmail address

There were 2 online game stores that wouldn't allow me to register with a protonmail account, AllYouPlay and another one that I can't recall, which was weird to me

Some sites and services won't accept accounts with e-mails outside of the mainstream ones though.

As someone who doesn't know much about China aside from the high competitiveness of their academic environment, I'm curious as to what sort of issues your friends face due to surveillance? Does it affect their day to day lives? Or does it just foster an atmosphere of "be careful what you say"?

I would legit use it. For-profit dating sites suck

I think non-militarized cops, so most non-American ones, are not that bad and are generally more decent people than militarized cops. It's amazing how much better policing can be when cops don't carry guns with them all the time

No, the solution would be for every app to be able to licence the music without any exclusivity, making them compete over the features their apps and services have instead of on the music itself. Video streaming is an oligopoly right now, which can be just as bad as a monopoly.

If a friend asks me to help with something, I don't removed and moan about my unpaid labour. Fuck that, they're my friends and I wouldn't take the money even if offered. That's just what friends do. The same applies to if I wanted to do something nice for them, like sending them a cool mixtape I made. That's how you build communities! Focusing on payment like you do reduces everything to capitalism but with even less empathy and humanity.

The summary for this video hurts my eyes to look at.
