True. This might be a more personal thing for me, which is why I felt the severity might be higher than it actually is.

Agreed, not every minute needs to be productive.

Hobbies (like woodworking, to which I was trying to relate my text) can be very self affirming, especially if you get very good at them. I was thinking about this self affirmation, not about productivity when I was writing that.

Yes, everything can be, but games are designed to be addicting. Most are designed to keep you engaged as long as possible, some even to profit as much as possible from the player.

That's not an OS, that's three spywares in a trenchcoat!

Endlich tut mal jemand was!

Mehr Wohnungen! Ich wollte immer schon in nem Containerberg wohnen.

Mehr Arbeit! Ach, was hab ich das rumkriechen auf dem Acker für 0,8€/h und den nie wieder heilenden Rücken vermisst.

Achja, mit eigenen Reserven den Fachkräftemangel beseitigen. Mit dem Angriff Steiner kommt alles wieder in Ordnung.

Yay, mehr LKWs auf der Straße! Auch eine Option ein Geschwindigkeitslimit durchzusetzen.

Wird die Cargo grade vorbereitet zu versagen? So wie eine Bad Bank?

It's way too easy for people to be exploited through video games, just as with gambling, for it to be "just another hobby". They can also become addicted.

Yes, it can be a very nice hobby; with some games you can even show something for the time spent (As in skills, not "achievements").

But it can also become a symptom of dangerous reality abandonment. The worst for this is in my opinion still better than substance abuse, but a danger nonetheless.

At least in corporate they can disable the annoying features easily with AD. And the rest doesn't really matter because you don't own those PCs anyway.
