We need to let all the companies that took risks to take over the entire world fail so companies know not to take risks to take over the entire world.
Bailing them out after the fact isn't good. It only incentivizes more bad behavior.

The truth nobody wants to talk about is that if climate activists get exactly what they want, the result will be genocides -- like, multiple peoples being wiped out, all around the world.
Stuff like growing food, like heating your home, like transporting food to supermarkets, that isn't a luxury. It's right at the bottom of maslows hierarchy of needs. If you don't get these things, you and your family will die.
Europe has gotten a taste of what would happen in the past couple years with the cataclysmic rise in energy prices resulting from a single source of energy being cut off, Russian NatGas. Imagine if we shut off all the alternatives as well except for direct renewables -- The results would be much, much greater.
Of course, any state that actually adopted those policies would have to figure out a carbon neutral source of gunpowder to put down the mass insurrections the attempted genocide would cause. We're already seeing insurrections in many countries around the world from just a little scarcity, that's just a taste of the world in such a scenario. Moreover, if you think Russia is being aggressive now, wait for a world where NATO has given up on fossil fuels but Russia hasn't. Western Europe will be like a ripe fruit, ready for the picking.
That isn't to say we do nothing -- there is no future in which we can continue to use fossil fuels forever so we need to work to utilize existing alternatives (and it's important to note that there are alternatives right now being totally ignored that are practical and developed that we're just straight-up refusing to use because they aren't sexy and nobody will get rich building electric streetcars and running overhead cables) and come up with new practical alternatives -- but we can't replace one extinction event for another.

Both posts make a good point.
On one hand, as I wrote in The Graysonian Ethic, everyone has urges that are bad, but the key is to recognise that those urges are bad and that while they are of course a part of you, you don't start identifying yourself by them and making them the core part of your identity and start going around forming communities full of people whose commonality is that they have bad urges. I see a beautiful woman walking down the street, not only do I not immediately walk up and molest them, but I don't hit on them either since I'm happily married, and I don't go online and join the molester community or the cheating on my wife community "but don't worry I won't do it I swear" because I'm not a psychopath.
On the other hand, lots of people who are called incels are clearly not incels. Nick Rekieta of Rekieta Law has 6 kids and a gorgeous wife -- he isn't celibate, involuntary or otherwise. He's called that because he fought for a guy he thought was metoo'd falsely and he didn't bend the knee to the woke lynch mob. Same with lots of labels -- People have views that aren't racist but they are called racist because someone goes "What they're really saying is" with no evidence. Remember the recent kerfuffle where people claimed not using spices is racist? Anyone with a cursory knowledge of history would know how absurd that idea is (for much of western history, slathering your food in way too much spice was considered a status symbol since they were rare and expensive), but why learn history when you can just brainstorm whatever bullshit you want?

Finished my print, but the quality on the overhangs is pretty bad. I think I need to reprint with the fans higher.

One thing to keep in mind about the games industry of the past is the character of trying to buy a video game was way different than it is now. Today, you can hop online and upon hearing about a game that's been released have it playing on your computer or game console in maybe an hour. Back then, you would have to go to the store, see if they had anything remotely interesting, and when they didn't because of course they didn't, you have to just wait until they restocked and hope they had something interesting then.
I assume that you could have some luck buying stuff through mail order if you were in the us, but it's a big wide world out there and sometimes the computer store was all you have.
