Weird to use a game that decided to drop its official Linux support for this meme

Insurance companies seem slightly over-represented here

These are relatively easy to find in Japan

Couldn’t tell you why but they are

Flying cars are also horrifying: they’ve existed for about a century, popular culture won’t accept they’re a bad idea and imagine the research breakthroughs drone warfare would experience if a consumer market were funneling funds in from a whole new closely-related industry
