There are conspiracy theories on the Internet that Google and Facebook were created to centralize control of the Internet in a few large corporations, who then would be able to control what information people see. You also have to think bigger than government. Who has more influence? The President? Or the CEO of Blackrock and other large hedge funds, who control all the voting shares in pretty much every public corporation?

For example, if you control the mainstream media and big tech, you can make an issue seem like a huge problem by overhyping it everywhere. You can cover up real problems by never mentioning them at all. The CEO of Google is NOT elected. A couple of hedge fund managers get to pick the CEO of Google.

How do you know that there's only one person working the account? When you're a reddit moderator, it's anonymous (same on Wikipedia). For all we know, all the power mods are working at a PR firm somewhere. Spreading misinformation could be their full-time job. Controlling the flow of information on Reddit and Wikipedia could be worth more than Reddit's actual profit.

With lemmy, if someone is squatting a bunch of forums and moderating them, you can always start your own lemmy instance and start your own forum with the same title.

There's nobody to sue. The CEO is dead. Oceangate is a bankrupt company with no assets.

There's really no reason to have more than one. You can only carry one at a time. I buy one and keep it until it breaks or is obsolete.

I currently have a 2 year old RG351MP.

There are lots of free asset packs available, or cheap ones to purchase.

If you're making a 2D pixel art game, you can make cheap sprites in GIMP. You can also make cheap 8-bit style sound effects with jfxr.

The one I'm waiting for is the GPD Win Mini. It goes back to the original clamshell design. It's the only Windows device on the market that is actually pocket-sized.

No, they're already dead. Most likely the sub cracked under the water pressure, instakilling them. Or they froze to death. Or they ran out of air; they have oxygen but no CO2 scrubber.

Those charities have huge overhead. Very little money goes to the actual cause.

Godot was a fine choice. I tried Unity and found myself spending more time fighting Unity bugs than working on my game. Godot also is better for 2D. You should try 2D games before making 3D.

You also need to learn basic programming first. Things like for/while/if, function calls, variables, object oriented programming.

Your first game idea should be something REALLY SIMPLE.
