We even “upgraded” to teams voice from a local PBX. Really great having calls drop and fail to connect.

Run kids through 12 years of school. Teach them little that engages them or makes them feel valuable. Tell them for half of those years that their best hope to achieve happiness is to go to college so that they can earn enough to consume the good life and then retire. Then wonder why so many lack a sense if purpose and belonging.

Some kids are fortunate. They have a family that truly support them, helpinh them gain experience in life and some insight into finding their way. For those with families that aren’t that way, finding your way can be much harder. A significant amount of kids have parents that are checked out. Sometimes it’s because the parents are too busy working. Sometimes its for worse reasons.

I wish I could go back and play it again for the first time. It was one of the first games I played after getting my first voodoo card. It felt like I was experiencing the bleeding edge of tech.

Thinking about it, i can’t remeber a time in the last decade that a game made me feel that way. Crysis was probably the last time.

More on topic, yes everyone should own it. I think I bought a steam or GOG bundle and got all the doom and quake games for like $5-$10 or something like that.

I hope they win. I fear they probably won’t.

So be it. Humanity got along just fine without the internet for milleneia. Its clear at this point that the public internet isn’t going to be used to improve our human existence. If there is anything to bemoan, its that the practical usefulness of the internet will only continue to get more and more narrow.

Best anti digital hate movement ever: Going outside and doing something of actual use or recreational value.
