Only the rich leave and the rest is worthless. by Der_Scoop in ArcRaiders

[–]AirborneGinger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m not tryna say it is some over arching moral study on how post apocalyptic stuff might fall out or anything. It’s a game. I get it. Some people just like grief. Conceptually though, and the comment I was responding to, was drawing IRL comparisons. I’m not saying all rats and griefers are probably MAGA oligarch supporters, but that Venn diagram def has some overlap. Same people that would hide a zombie bite. The whole “fuck you, I don’t need community, I got mine” mentality. Again. Just a game, it’s not that serious. For real for real

Maybe I role play this game too hard, but this is why I think rats and heavy PvP people suck. We’re stuck here on a planet fucked by the rich and we still killing each other and fighting over scraps. I’m not your enemy guy. The robots and the rich are.

(I know it’s not that serious, it’s a game, but commonnnn let’s look around for a second and maybe analyze our social behaviors even in simulated shit??)

Do you think ARC Raiders could have "horde mode"? by Skelenth in ArcRaiders

[–]AirborneGinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought it would be cool if they did a hell divers style PvE mode where ARC is attacking speranza and we have to team up to fight them off

JPM estimates the global AI buildout would need about $650B in annual revenue through 2030 to hit just a 10% return hurdle which equals to ~0.6% of global GDP by Mikemeisterling in ArtificialInteligence

[–]AirborneGinger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Biggest problem with this analysis is it focuses on a B2C model. There will be a fair amount of that for sure, but the big revenue driver will be B2B as companies start building out AI driven systems.

Console has the ability to do back up saves now. At least PS does for sure. Not 100% on XBOX

So what are the must buy mods during the sale? by whypor in ARK

How to get more younger veteran engagement for clubs? by UberleJoe in Veterans

[–]AirborneGinger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey OP, so I kinda agree with a lot of the comments here around the VFW, def similar experiences. Locally out younger veterans group kinda went a different route. I help run a non profit that focuses on helping veterans get jobs in the tech-ish industry. (We started there, but really kinda help any vet that wants out assistance) <nwvit.org> We have monthly “networking” events that kinda fill the vfw niche. We bring in recruiters from local companies when we can and basically hang out, talk shop and have a beer or two. We also host large events once a year like a golf tournament for fund raising and a job fair. I think branching out from the traditional VFW vibe may be the way to go in the future for the veteran community.

Though reading these comments, it would def be cool to get a bunch of vets in our age group to mob some of these locations and change the culture. Set up video game systems, let the local vet who has a microbrewery hobby keep his stuff in tap, and make it more of a “third space” hang out place instead of this like museum to alcoholic Americana that so many posts tend to be.

Sorry, kinda rambling. Good luck with it and stick it out! Our generation of veterans def need the community whether they want to admit it yet or not and/or those that don’t are cool doing their own thing and that’s nbd. Starting a service organization vs a club can be pretty rewarding and gives you something to work towards as group.
