Yup! From a very fast search, the sculptor was a confederate apologist or somesuch. He died in 1940 something, and was building for the KKK during the KKK schism of 1920 of which I don't have any idea what it means.

I'm pretty sure early 1900 american racism was not exactly as modern racism considering there were actual bounties on first nation people... Like we pay you to kill them type of bounties.

My (first nation) grand father like to talk about thoses stories but he's a liar and I have no idea if what he say is true at all

It's well documented, I'm pretty sure whatever source I will give will be rejected as not good, so do the research, it takes a few minutes...

Edit : oh! You did!! Nice!!!

It's not true tho.

The sculptor worked on KKK projects but Rushmore itself was not funded by KKK.

It's still a monument to wrongdoing but we don't need to lie to make it look bad.

No,

Serious teams know that building big software is hard and that starting by having a set deadline is the first failure point of a project.

Serious team wants a set budget and feature set. They also want a dialog with the aquiring party, because as you dig deeper in the software you uncover oddities. These oddities are more often than not a failure of the aquiring party understanding of their own business operations.

And thus, a serious team will help the aquiring party refine their business process by either removing useless steps, adding missings steps or changing a step in the overall workflow. And that's were the most of the value of making a new software comes from.

Doing waterfall will stop this from happening and will remove actual value from the software because it's going to be bloated with useless things that were badly understood by the aquiring party.

Agile is about producing as much value as possible, as fast as possible, in a set budget.

English is my third language so sorry if it's hard to understand or feel aggressive.

I have no idea what I'm talking about but would that be enough to replace the magnetosphere? From what I understand, a Magnetosphere is needed to have a sustainable colony, unless this has been disproved recently ..

I don't feel like I have to discuss with someone who clearly is in bad faith.

Go learn about a subject before talking about it, that's it. All you said was petulant bullshit. Go read La conquete du pain or something before talking about anarchy, you clearly have no idea what you are talking about and instead are reugitating speudo-intellectual word salad.

If you're so fragile you feel you need to block me, i have no words for you other than : go touch grass, go read about your subjet and come back a better person.

I wish you well!

I never said anything like that. I never said i beleived in anarchy. You just are factually wrong on all counts.

Go read the anarchist philosophers, you'll see what I mean.

You are still writing word salad by the way... Really ... Touch grass, read a book about the subject you want to talk about and come back a changed person!

I wish you well!

Well, I don't understand why you think anarchist means no rules.

It means no hierarchy.

It's even the whole word itself.

An-Archy. Hier-archy.

So your thesis is based on wrong assumptions and is a word salad from my point of view.

I like the sentiment but aa is ... Urgh...

But yeah this looks like a call for help.

Well, to be fair, they sold out since a while a back.

"At that time where our finances had become healthy again, I brought up that since we had the means to do so, we should pay back the employees who gave up their paychecks to keep us going. That comment was met with silence by all the owners."

They are not in there for art anymore. Money's the game now ...

The outer worlds world building was cool, the voice acting was nice... I can't remember the game story at all. The gameplay had only one quality : it existed. The weapon selection could have been cool but it was not. They didn't weave the good world building they did in the other elements of the game and it was a shame.

So, I think it's a lost opportunity of a game. It could have been way cooler with not a lot of efforts. I feel it took some risks while avoiding all the risks a game should take.

TL;DR : This game is like horseradish. It starts strong then offer no more flavor than what it started with. Then you get tired of that flavor and ask yourself why you are eating horseradish in the first place.

Anti-communist propaganda is all the rage everywhere.

If you like the game, but the propaganda is affecting you, sorry.

I know games are an escape but you don't have to be ideological about everything... playing a game with bad takes won't make you less communist if you really are communist.

You can take that as a test of your resolve, to make it more fun.
