For free? That sounds like communism to me!

These chips will be in everything. Cars, phones, computers, TVs, cameras, drones. If they can mandate location tracking in all of these AI chips, then they’re mandating location tracking on everything electronic.
I have no bad words about the game, other than the fact that it takes 10 minutes (I timed it) to go from not yet opening the game, to get to a title screen. It also crashes pretty regularly. Meaning you gotta wait 10 minutes AGAIN.
I just started up the game now and it took 20 seconds to load into the title screen and then less than 3 seconds to load into a saved game. It sounds like you have some other issue causing the slow loading.
According to howlongtobeat.com, a leisurely pace takes about 28 hours to beat it. If you’re particularly slow, you could probably take a good amount of time more. That doesn’t mean you’re bad at games though, especially since this type of game can be played very slowly since it’s turn-based and there’s nothing pushing you to play fast.
Play at whatever pace it takes you to enjoy whatever it is you’re playing. As long as you’re having fun, you’re doing it right.
Because most of the world is already on WhatsApp, and changing to Signal would isolate you from most people and businesses.

I’m pretty sure Guillemot was a sociopath. There are many people whose deaths I would feel bad for, but he’s not one of them.

Agreed, they deserve to know.

Yes, causing harm to thousands of people is significantly worse than one person dying in a crash.

Part of the 0.01%, made absurd amounts of money making games worse, heading a company actively fighting against unionisation.

I still think that’s fine. Sometimes the world is better off when someone dies.

Meh, I don’t wish death on anyone, but that doesn’t mean I have to be sad that a shitty person died.

Sure, the wires are larger because they needed to be, but they are still functional, which is what matters.
I’d say one of the issues with repairing things these days is that everything is getting smaller and smaller. Where thick gauge wires were required before, now they use much thinner wire. Where thinner wires were used before, printed circuit boards are often used now. New circuit boards are chock full of miniature surface-mount components which are much more difficult to replace compared to the much larger circuit boards of the olden days. Every step of miniaturisation makes repairs require more skill.
I feel like Kevin Mitnick could have but wouldn’t have done it willingly.
