I've often wondered at what point toying with healthcare at a large enough scale becomes eugenics with extra steps.

Eurorack is very cool and I totally understand the appeal of having physical devices to interact with but one thing I never understood is how you can recreate a specific configuration you liked later. Do you manually document every connection? Or just take pictures?

Once it's gone it's gone. That's part of what I like about analogue modular synthesizers. It's a liberating approach to doing music if you embrace it for what it is.

I should start a running list of all the people who say "Trump isn't going to...!" and then how they act like it was all part of the plan when he actually does it.

his first term, despite all the clownery and drama, ended up being run of the mill republican politics. Why do you think things will be different this time?

Don't worry, I think it's only a matter of time before you'll be able to do this. Either through an official PS5 remaster, an official PC release (less likely) or via some funky unofficial emulation.

Even though it's only 30fps the game is quite beautiful for being 9 years old and running on a previous gen console.

it is something to worry about if you care about playing the original. I'm only interested in straight ports with minimal QOL features like 60fps(or unlocked if viable), higher resolution and controller rebinding.

I haven't played a single remaster that I preferred to the original game. I'm fine with remasters existing, but only if faithful ports are made available as well.

Nothing socialist about it. Eu is neoliberal to its core.

Isn't Japan the industrialized nation with the lowest fraction of foreigners?

There are other reasons for that. Application is cheap and relatively fast(~3 months in my case).

Silicon Valley is not "far left" by any stretch, which implies socialism, redistribution of wealth, etc. This is obvious by inspection.

I assume by far left, you mean progressive on social issues, which is not really a leftist thing but the groups are related enough that I'll give you a pass.

Silicon valley techies are also not socially progressive. Read this thread or anything published by Paul Graham or any of the AI leaders for proof of that.

However most normal city people are. A large enough percent of the country that big companies that want to make money feel the need to appeal to them.

Funnily enough, what is a uniquely Silicon Valley political opinion is valuing the progress of AI over everything else

indeed they are not really left but neoliberals with a leftist aesthetic, just like most republicans are neoliberals with a conservative aesthetic.

Late stage capitalism got started started in the thirties...
