Tie more positive things to the federal minimum wage, for example tax brackets and retirement fund contribution limits. They go up every single year, so the government will either have to keep raising the minimum wage or go on the record to justify why the ratio is wrong.

Retirement should be 45

Red Alert 2 remaster

git send-xmpp & darcs send --xmpp for realtime, decentralized collaborative patches. The extensibility could fix the UX issues with patches by email & wouldn’t require accounts on someone else’s server or using the severely flawed ‘pull request’ model.

Also nationwide lead removal fund.

Every airline seat should be fixed at the reclined position

put all the health sensors in wireless earpiece rather than a watch.

Craggles™

Sandles for the crag allowing belayers to quickly slip them on and off. Toe area capped with light armour and good rubber soles for scrambling. Of course they have accessory loops for quickly attaching to bags for multi-pitch, Gone are the days of sore feet from belaying in climbing shoes, toe damage from catching a whip in flip-flops, or holding up your climbing partner by trying to find your approach shoes and a spot to put them on.

They have these in Amsterdam. Each room comes with its own maid.

Mozilla should make a search engine.

I know they will lose all that sweet google revenue.

Automation AI replacing CEOs

There's this suit of useful little programs called Microsoft PowerToys, I always thought it should include a tool that allows you to quickly swap the contents of monitors around in multi-monitor setups.

e.g. move all open windows from monitor 1 to monitor 2 and vice-versa, while retaining their (approximate) position.

This may already be a thing, I haven't really checked.

Bloodborne remaster and on PC

(Pls miyazaki I beg you!)

All gamepads that have it having a BAXY control scheme. That's B right, A down, X left, Y up for the buttons on the right side of the gamepad. I can't tell you how many times I have pressed the wrong buttons when playing certain games all because the 3rd party switch controller I have uses ABYX or because I don't remember where the symbols are on a PlayStation controller. Dreamcast and original Xbox had their shit together with how they used BAXY for their controllers and to this day I may shit on Microsoft, but not on the BAXY control scheme on their gamepads.

German take: Parking on the side of the road and on sidewalks should just be banned.
Its legality is based on a single court case from the 1950's where a judge decided that it should be a legal use of public space, because it's necessary and useful for motorizing the country. The justfication is obsolete. It's not enshrined in any laws. The traffic law specifically forbids it, with exceptions.
Yet it's practiced everywhere and even where parked cars block sidewalks, police simply don't enforce the law.

"But where should I park?"
You should have thought of that before buying a car.

"But what about rural areas where you need a car to live?"
No problem here, just park it on your turnip field.

Wrecking ball duels!

I'd like citizenship swapping services. Some people just don't wanna stay stuck to their country of birth, especially if renouncing that citizenship is literally impossible (I'm Moroccan, and according to Moroccan law I'll stay that way to my own detriment, even if I get another citizenship which thankfully is possible).

Airport lounges where the seats are just like on the plane, with little spots for luggage to the side. Then people just get up and board in order, putting your stuff right above or in front of you. If you're late, you board last. No more airline rat race.

Global peace and security.
