Ghost Runner has many of the same aspects, and definitely scratches the same itch for me. It’s much more combat focused, but the combat actually feels like it was an intentional part of the game, at least.

If I’m remembering correctly, the game was originally designed to have no guns available to the player, but the team was pressured into adding the shooter mechanics later on. Ignoring guns is definitely the way to go with this game.

I made an extremely half-hearted attempt at it at some point, but couldn’t immediately find any cli commands to toggle that option so I gave up pretty quickly.

Yeah this is really annoying for me as well. I found that if you go into the system tray and click on ‘power management’ and then tick the box for ‘manually block sleep and screen locking’ it’ll solve the issue. Unfortunately it means that your display won’t go dark when the system is idle, so I have to remember to untick that box after I’m done gaming in order to keep that behaviour.

I guarantee you the C-suite at reddit regularly kick themselves for giving into public backlash and keeping old.reddit. People weren’t happy with the redesign, but they would have definitely gotten used to it fairly quickly. Now, removing it will be another nail in the coffin they’re so desperate to build.

I wonder if these vehicles could be remotely piloted by a human when they become gridlocked, rather than have someone sitting in the cabin the entire time. Seems like just sitting in an autonomous vehicle while it drives long distances would be a particularly terrible job.

Both of these things can be true at the same time.

Unironically, the terminal.

I find it interesting that many of these complaints essentially boil down to: listen, I know you have vast amounts of data about who I am as a person, so why aren’t you using this data effectively?

This simply means it’s a question of how far do the values of these buildings need to fall before it is economically viable to perform these massive conversions. Government could certainly incentivize these conversions. Too bad it seems most governments don’t care about alleviating the various housing crises.

Per the article, it seems that the main barrier here is that it is currently not economically worthwhile to convert these buildings, as the conversions require massive changes to the buildings themselves. If the value of these properties fall enough, however, it could easily become an attractive proposition for these buildings. A continued push for work from home can hopefully damage these property values enough to make it feasible.
