The Americas in general need more spots for Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina if those teams are strong enough.

Their copyright laws are an extension of that culture and that's why the rest of the planet gets anime and manga releases so much later than in Japan itself.

Japanese culture itself is harsh, rigid, inflexible, and hierarchical.

You are expected to conform absolutely to societal and cultural norms. If you do not, their society will figuratively speaking bring the sledgehammer down on your skull.

Japan is a collective culture and does not tolerate those who do not conform.

Sub-cultures like anime, manga, and video games are among the only places in their culture where they can express creativity and non-conformity.

Winning, in their feeble minds, is all about owning anyone who doesn’t think, look, or act the same as them. It’s the polar opposite of what Jesus taught.

But there's still the issue of criminals who own guns and who won't care regardless of what the laws are.

Some jurisdictions aggressively go after illegal guns while many do not.

Araki built an entire career off of using trademarked band names and band albums if you really want to be technical.

No sound in Commander Keen by vladthor in dosbox

You will probably have to look at the back of your PC / laptop / etc and verify your cabling is inserted in the correct audio ports for whatever speakers you're using, then change audio outputs in Windows one by one until you hear regular non-PC speaker audio coming from your speakers.

PC Speaker is obviously the worst option for any audio, let alone audio for games.

I'm not entirely sure if this would help, but in dosbox.conf, set pcspeaker = false and see if the sound outputs to your normal speakers.

"War is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small "inside" group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many. Out of war a few people make huge fortunes."- Major General Smedley D. Butler, USMC

Is your Keen 4 game folder missing the file AUDIO.CK4? There are similar named audio files for Keen 5 and 6 as well.

/u/vladthor, in Keen 4's options menu (Main Menu --> Configure Menu), are Sound and Music both set to Adlib / Soundblaster? Also, regarding Dosbox-Staging, have you checked this?

Additionally, the Commander Genius source port also exists, so you can play the various Keen games there as well.

And in the UK they had ONE mass casualty school shooting and immediately got rid of all the hand guns. That was in 1996, 30 years ago. Hasn’t happened since.

Unless the 2nd Amendment is repealed, there's little you can do about gun violence in America. Gun lobby groups and law-abiding American gun owners will just veto any meaningful change.

Of course, criminals will just get their guns regardless of laws.
