And they can react to in-game state as well
If every action produces logs and the logs are given to every npc along with some flags, suddenly,
Just punched a guard? That goes in the context
Player is rich? That’s in the context
Wearing mage clothes? Context
It’s a cool way to increase immersion for not much effort without breaking anything in a traditional game

It doesn’t matter that they are one time setups, the question is how many one time setups will you have to do in a year, year over year?
Same for “insanly edge cases” (editing a pdf, lol), the question is how likely are you to encounter an edge in your daily life?
When there’s a one-in-a-million chance to encounter a defect but there’s millions of them, it just becomes likely.
Turns out the world is made of a lot of edges for some advanced users.

“Why do gay people always act flamboyant?”
“Why do vegans always push their lifestyle?”
Because you don’t see the ones that don’t
Any advanced user will face dozens of hoops a month on Linux
It’s never the simple things, nor the very difficult things. It’s small, niche workflows & use cases of your computer that you “sometimes” do, like, I don’t know, editing a PDF, installing shareX or an equivalent that can take a screenshot and upload it to imgur / run OCR on a part of your screen, running a Space Engineers server for your friends, running SSEEdit.exe to dump the contents of a potion overhaul mod in Skyrim and calculate which are the best ingredients to plant in your Skyrim greenhouse and garden for maximizing gold output.
No need to look up ways to do any of those, I’ll get different ones next week, and then more the week after.
You know, the millions of things that no one ever does except that guy in 2019 on StackExchange, but that you will have to do and then never again.
the annoying stereotype of vegans pushing their diet
Also, vegans actually do something good for the planet instead of just choosing a different OS for their PC. So, maybe acknowledge that to your neighborly vegan next time, instead of telling them a story about how you once met someone who was really pushy about veganism.
“Innocent until proven guilty” has nothing to do with it. When a cop stops you he’s not indicting you. Switching your gas off remotely replaces chasing calling in reinforcements and chasing you over several blocks when you start speeding up, or flipping your car over. Both of those already impair or override the driver’s input quite a bit.
Having the opinion that your driver input should override the cop’s order to stop, and that society should trust you to stop instead of putting a kill switch in your engine is an insane opinion, and prime driver entitlement.
And I would love the same for drivers without insurance, license removals and cars that didn’t pass the tech inspection
Cars kill 43 000 people a year in the U.S.
I’m talking about people’s reactions in this thread when they haven’t read the article. All of those people opposing a hypothetical “cop presses a button” remote kill switch are insane.
Private citizens do not have a right to operating a motor vehicle any way they see fit. You license it, you license your skills, you get it looked at periodically and you use it on public roads with the state’s blessing only if you can manage to get along with other people using that same road. There is no sense opposing a kill switch for “freedom”.
We can’t trust cops with their stupid car chases that result in crashes, and their maneuvers for flipping cars over on the freeway.
You give them a killswitch
“Disadvantages”
43 000 deaths a year and you cry at the slightest inconvenience
Drivers need a reality check
Driver entitlement episode 456: “what do you mean my death machine needs to have a remote kill switch???”
Insane.
