I still don't know how half the games at timezone can be allowed for kids.

The best sims game is The Sims Bustin' Out.

Haven't been there for a long time but I've literally been banned from some subs I never even visited for posting something they didn't like on a different sub.

I use PIA, cheap and they've been involved in at least 2 court cases where their no logging policies were proven.

That is supposedly the case in Australia as well but I haven't got a letter from telstra since around 2004 and I have never used a VPN and watch all my shows and movies via torrents so either I'm extremely lucky or they stopped bothering.

Though recently I started paying the $4 / month for Real Debrid for better streaming performance, which is just as good as a VPN for torrent anonymity. I used to be fundamentally against the idea of paying anything to pirate but honestly this is worth it, I've even been able to watch a few shows that had 0 seeders because they were previously cached.

Possible, but "in debt" can equally mean you just owe the money, it doesn't have to mean bankrupt with the debt on top of it. If you owe your credit card company 10k you're in debt 10k until you pay them, regardless of whether you have 1 million in the bank. Same if you have student loans etc.

Would it still apply if it's not Google forcing it, but simply giving developers the choice? This doesn't seem any different to putting code in your game to make sure it was launched from the epic games store for example.

I mean if we're just naming a price you could say something like 100m+, invest it for profit for X amount of time and either intentionally or unintentionally slip up at some point, pay back the original and be pretty nicely set with no further catch.

Sure it's clearly not within the spirit of the question, but still.

I use DWService. Now everyone go ahead and tell me why I'm stupid.

But the value of these shells will fall

I get you, but "whatever the user attempts" "works out in their favour", seems pretty clear to me. If I attempt to win at the lottery, the outcome will work out in a way that favours what I want. It feels hard for it to go wrong.

Yeah the penny is crazy OP. Ultimately, if something can be done, you can do it. Ignoring what you said for a moment, which is entirely true.

Get rich, create company that is focused on sleep research and ways to reduce/eliminate it while staying 100% healthy, unlimited funds, top minds, and every month you can help speed things up significantly.

And if it's fundamentally impossible, you'll still have plenty of other goals to choose from, and you'll absolutely appreciate having the entire day free to do what you want while having to sleep, vs having to still go to work but sitting up all night.

The other catch is, while it states a cool down of 20 hours, functionally you'd generally have to be awake 23 hours, unless you had the luxury of being able to sleep at any time. Sleeping every 20 hours for 1 hour isn't going to stay at a consistent time.
