Works every time and after playing just about all of the modern paradox games, you really don't need the dlcs unless you're really into the base game and even then the time to learn means most of it won't even be within your grasp until you're like 50 to 100 hours in.

100% agree but curious on your speculation as to why.

What's your policy solution or position?

Simple, it's not really about the kids, it's about control of the internet.

Why is that worse?

I think they knew and it didn't matter to them which is oddly prophetic when I look at the state of the world today lol

People panned the game but this was the whole point of the NG Resonance character in Deus Ex Invisible War. People would basically tell this AI pop star intimate details about their lives and then the data was used against them and their local communities.

Corpse Conglomeration is a badass band name though

It's because degrees aren't unfortunately full proof certifications of your skill set. They should be, and they should require recertification to prove your skill set. This is handled differently in different countries and with different industries but requiring more deep and trusted educational programs would resolve the problem. It makes sense that a company wants to ensure they're getting what the candidate says they are.

Hiring processes are a joke currently and involve a clearly bullshit song and dance that everyone knows is a lie. I ver much don't like tests in this capacity but it's clear it's a symptom of issues in higher academia.

Many groups have wanted an "online passport" for a long time now and it's hard for me to not see this as another attempt veiled by "won't someone think of the children".

Once this starts it'll be required for everything.

No, you made a series of claims above without evidence. Let's start with your claim that instant gratification has spilled into the workplace and is a cause for the problems as you see them.

Yeah but are you going to back your statements above up with data or are these just your feelings?
