        I wanna live in tbe timeline where the colonies lost the revolution. Mayeb then the crown would have prevented western expansion and allow indigenous nations to form

          The timeline where Columbus’s crew did a mutiny, and Europe didn’t invade.

                It's not as cool as that: Columbus still gets to the Caribbean, and for some reason a lot of the indigenous people convert to Christianity.

                Lots of CK fans seem to have a hate-on for that DLC for some reason, despite the devs making it clear it didn't take dev time away from anything.

                  Well the way Paradox deploys DLC is kinda bullshit. If you're not onboard from Day 1, you could easily blink and realize that if you want to play the most up-to-date version of the game you need to pay a hundred dollars or more for the privilege despite the fact that you bought it at full price when it came out. Then there's the fact that ongoing development and patching of a game takes for granted DLC ownership, so it's not unheard of for them to completely fuck game balance for people playing without the most recent one. Then there's the modding community which is perpetually split between updating for patches and updating for DLC and maintaining versions that work both with and without it... it sucks.

                  They should use the MMO model of making everything except the most recent expansion part of the base experience, but then they would lose out of NEET bucks by not inflicting FOMO on the playerbase every couple months.

              I know Orson Scott Card is problematic but I loved the Ender series and Pastwatch

            Yeah good point. But at least we would have a parliamentary system and not have to listen to idiots worship the constitution (they would worship the queen instead)

    What’s gonna be fun is the current gig economy companies (Uber, Lyft, etc) dying as they have unsustainable business models, but the gig economy actually expanding to replace the vast majority of salaried labor over the next few years. Behold the “future of work”

      unsustainable business models becoming dominant feels very late stage capitalism tbh

      I’ve been dreading this ever since I learned about how much money the healthcare industry was willing to throw at travel nurses. I think this is another step towards making all labor “gig” work, unfortunately

      We're going back to the daily hire system, except instead of bricklayers and dockworkers it's gonna be nursing home staff, EMTs, and CNAs in the hospital.

      I am demanding a mass de-urbanization and an immediate return of the traveling country doctor as the sole provider of medical care.

    Cool. I hope chuds can't review bomb the nurses until the entire medical system is staffed by antivaxxers
