Hideo Kojima literally predicted this.

He saw the entire problem of an overwhelming amount of dubious slop being produced on the internet, to the point that AIs would be constructed to manage and curate this information.

This is literally the plot of MGS2, released in 2001, very early days of the ‘public’ internet.

… but no one came up with a better solution to the problem.

When that game came out, that was a futuristic scif-fi political thriller plot.

Now, it’s basically just reality.

Not everybody can handle multiple days of bicycling.

A lot more people can handle multiple days of driving.

A van can also move multiple people, or a lot more stuff.

Seems perfect to me, if you live within around 60 miles of a nice weekend vacay spot… maybe I’m spoiled by growing up in the PNW, but basically just most of it is within 60 miles of a decent spot for a weekend vacay.

Even if its further away… just do things like an old fashioned road trip, plan out your travel times and routes and days, such that it all lines up. If that means a day or two in a slightly less interesting spot while you’re recharging… who cares? Bring beer, a deck of cards, a horseshoe ring or bocci ball kit or something.

Can you fit fold out solar panels and a power station in it?

FTA:

It also has enough space to transport someone in a wheelchair and be charged using regular power outlets at home, with a plug similar to what you would use for a microwave or refrigerator.

So yes, and also, your power station doesn’t even need a special EV charging port adapter, just an extension cord.

Yeah, top speed ain’t high, but uh, just park, camp for a sunny day or two, recharge your car.

Infinite range at tortoise speeds, at least when the sun is out… which I hear is fairly often, in Mexico, and/or when most people would want to go on a vacation.

Ok so from here, it has a 14.7 kWh battery, in the car.

So, roughly realistically, to fully recharge the battery from empty, in a single sunny day, you’d need something like 8 500W panels, or 10 400W panels, or 12 300W panels.

Or, if you assume 2 sunny days, half the panel count.

Now, that many solar panels + power station is probably about half as expensive as the car itself, but you absolutely could fit them into this thing, or just mount a rack on top and strap them down, fold them out when you’re camped.

Yeah, that they’ve even been going back and cracking older games that shipped with Denuvo, but had not been cracked around their initiap release date… suggested to me that somebody figured out some method that applied more globally to Denuvo itself, as opposed to particular implementations of it.

Welp, that would explain why seemingly every Denuvo game has been getting cracked, lately.

I suspected somebody(s) had just figured out how to bypass the entire thing, but hadn’t had that confirmed untill now.

Ma’am!

Your tear ducts appear to have escaped your… eye sockets.

I think.

… everything ok?

Shooba dooba dooba dooba

No touchy booba.

… yet.

I fucking hope not.

I’m legitmately traumatized from it, in many contexts.

If your RV breaks down (and/or if you just can’t afford some kind of parking lot rent for it), and you can’t afford to fix it or regularly move it, your home gets impounded, you are now homeless, meaning you are now a criminal, meaning you will soon be slave laborer for someone elses profit.

Technically, extremely technically, politics is possible without violence.

In practice this is basically extremely rare over any appreciable time scale, but bleh.

Now… the state?

The state literally is the formalized use of violence, by definition.

Like, Poli Sci 101, the state is precisely that.

Anybody who says ‘violence has no place in politics’ is either … an anarchist… or … they are extremely lost in the sauce, the propoganda that states produce to normalize and justify themselves. The latter are thus being disinegenous by way of either ignorance or active rhetorical fuckery.

To point toward a currently ongoing example that can illuminate this -> go to youtube right now and look up ‘bricks and minifigs’.

Long story short, Mormons constitute a gang, a mob, a mafia, that has legitimized itself as the state. Laws exist to protect wealthy property owners, the cops are corrupt and work for them, the legal system will bend over backwards to protect those in the gang, and steal from, gaslight, punish and harass those that sufficiently annoy the mob.

Its really honestly shocking how incredibly sociopathic and brazen the entire scenario is, but it really is a great example of … how the state actually works.

I will never be able to take the T Pose seriously again after half a childhood of T Posing Kleiners with Phys Guns in their crotches, squeaking and screeching like demons, with their moms and/or vacuum cleaners in the background.

Tank/tractor tracks, but dumber.

Oh and the tires are runflats as well, because ‘what if tire pop?’

… jfc.

Is… are the tracks even segmented?

If you break a hole or dent into some part… do you just have to replace the entire tread?
