Why the heck did nobody yet develop an alternative like we’ve seen with SimCity/City skylines?!
They would make so much money and fuck EA.

Yep. That’s why I stopped distro hopping years ago.
Once set-up it just works™.
No die, is funni
Wait until you hear of a little state called Arkansas.
The “this would never happen to me” mindset really is cancer to logical thought and reasoning.
I somewhere read (maybe it was thinking fast and slow by Kahneman?) that even psychology students learning about certain behaviors would later anonymously claim they would never fall into these patterns. But plot twist: they are also only human, so of course they also could fall into these patterns.
Another example: People that think they would never fall for a scam. If it is the right scam they will fall even more easily for it than people that know that it could happen.
“Of course it can’t be a scam. Scams are obvious and only idiots fall for them.”
The only AC I have access to is in the supermarket and my car.
Do you live in an area with a lot of ac?
I needed to scroll way too much to see people mention marketing and advertising. It’s a huge deal.
The power of good advertising is not to be underestimated. There is a good statistically proven reason why so much money flows into it. And it’s not only traditional advertising but viral and “astroturfed” advertising.
That’s a strange hill to die on. I mean sure I will also never buy this game but with inflation it’s just a matter of time.
I would much rather have a higher initial cost with no macro transactions in game.
Not surprising. The Netherlands has way more money per square meter.
Jap, die extra Luft hat natürlich eine Funktion, nämlich als Polsterung.
Eine alternative wäre nicht die Verpackungen zu 100% zu füllen, sondern erst im Markt zu verpacken als kg Ware. Gibt es auch schon für Müsli in manchen Läden. Leider natürlich als Luxusprodukt also teurer als billiges verpacktes.
Don’t change that! I need that feature for my workflow
Depends on the author.
Yup it is contrary to normal economic principles, read up on luxury goods and in particular veblen goods and how price finding works there.
In the end humans are not at all times rational. There is no homo economicus. Economics is as much math as it is a social study.
I once moved ~5TB of research data over the internet. It took days and unfortunately it also turned out that the data was junk :/
And with crowd strike we have seen how reliable Antivirus is.
A few libraries come to mind immediately: fftw (I think the most widely used fft library) or GMP (I think the most used multi precision library).
At least 500 years old. Everybody else is just too damn infantile and stupid.
