They were conserving energy because it was hard for them to find the crystals they need. That said the lights are bound to be nothing compared to converting energy to matter or maintaining a warp field.

"Give away your vote for nothing or you're a genocidal bigot" is "Pokemon Go to the polls" but for terminally online armchair activists and election tourists.

Yeah where is this energy during the actual cycles of governance? Campaigning on important issues, grassroots activism and canvassing, volunteering with the various lobby groups... Nope the only thing that matters is that you Vote Blue.

You people should be less worried about leftists who despise both parties and more worried about the huge amount of people who just don't want to vote. Now it would be easier to convince people to get out and vote for an actual candidate rather than an artifact of campaign financing but hey, that's your problem to solve. Tell the Democrats to do better next time.

During the pandemic lockdowns, many hospitals were barely able to function as their equipment continued to wear out. Meanwhile they were waiting on the manufacturers to even diagnose the issues, let alone actually solve them.

We need easily accessible replacement parts, repair guides, software, and legal protection to be able to repair things when stuff goes wrong. We need backup plans for when hospital equipment dies en masse, or people's implants stop being supported, or when a single production facility gets knocked out and we end up short on IV fluid or baby formula.

I had a dev respond to me 5+ years after a review saying they had fixed the problems I mentioned. Now I have to download the game and play it again or I have no balls. God damn devs holding us accountable.

"Trickle-Upon Economics" really does capture the vibe and the reality of the experience.

There’s a great book called “The People’s Republic of Walmart” that suggests a lot of the underlying computational problems of economics have been resolved within these mega-corps, using the same theories and policies once practiced by Soviet-Era states.

Sounds interesting. Chicago school being wrong yet again would hardly be surprising but it still sounds like an interesting read.
