    An unfortunate consequence of developers playing to the lowest common denominator of users for the last twenty years. Everything has been designed to be as easy and intuitive as possible for mobile, and troubleshooting skills have suffered as a result.

    Not to mention that phones are crazy powerful and can do virtually everything these days, so fewer and fewer people are buying PCs.

    If the general population is indeed “going backwards” in regards to tech literacy, it seems like demand for IT services is going to spike in the coming years. Good thing to keep in mind for young people choosing a career path!






  • I see your point, though I wouldn’t necessarily view society, or a “toxic culture”, as the medium, but rather a group of individuals who share similar generational trauma/nurturing. Another way to look at it would be that a Global/National/Regional/Familial "culture is the equivalent to Class/Order/Family/Genus in my example.

    What I find interesting about generational trauma/nurturing, is that it usually evolves independent of our blood relations. Friends, teachers, community leaders, etc., each have their own level of influence on both individuals, and the broader culture, which often produces downstream effects for later generations.








  • Yesssss. I also loved the pistol in that game. It was one of the first games i came across where the pistol was just as deadly (in the right hands) as most anything else you could get.

    Side note, why the fuck don’t we have games with destructible environments anymore? I know BF4 has it, but the only other FPS I can think of that did it as well as red faction was ‘Black’ in 2006.
