I think what people are really missing is being able to feel disconnected.
Like it used to be you’d send an email and you’d get a response tomorrow. Because people would go online occasionally.
Now if I’m not responding to a text within a few minutes people get upset. You’ll see people answer the phone during a movie to say “hey I’m in a movie I’ll call you back”
I’d like to go back to the world of being connected but having a slight delay is ok
It’s all rigged, technically. If you go to a real life casino, slots are certified to pay out some percentage of plays. It’s like, 8%.
If you play craps, roulette - the house always has the edge because there’s more results favorable to them.
The only “casino” game where the house doesn’t have an edge is poker because that’s player against player. The house doesn’t really have a stake in any outcome, they’re just being paid to host the game.
