does anyone remember what a "welfare lever" is from when I last explained it
when dwarf fortress had money for a very brief period (this was before I started playing it and back when you couldn't dig down at all), players ran into a problem: a functioning society does not require 100% of its members to be productive.
so you would end up with dwarves for whom there was no work available, but because there was no work available, they could not afford any of the abundant high quality food and clothing and other goods.
and from this starting scenario and essentially physics-mandated capitalism comes a logical solution found by players.
if dwarves must complete jobs in order to earn money that they can use to purchase comfort, but comfort is extremely abundant, the solution is to create jobs that don't produce anything
and because of how Dwarf Fortress works, "pull the lever" is a job.
so players found they could build a room full of levers, not attached to anything, and assign the task of pulling each lever on repeat to whoever was available.
dwarves who could not find work otherwise would walk into the room and flip their lever from side to side, accomplishing literally nothing, until they got bored or hungry or tired and left to use the money they had "earned" to rectify that.
Tarn Adams found it was a better solution to simply delete capitalism.
and that's the story of why Dwarf Fortress no longer has an economy.

一ヶ所に留まって長く撮ってると、ファインダーみてる右目に力込めすぎなのか、だんだん疲れてくる。実際、右目の方が視力低いのがさらに進むのではという恐怖がある。ということで左目でファインダー見れないか試しにやってみると、右目を手で覆わない限り、左目の正面をまっすぐ見れないことに気付いた。子どものころから右目に頼りすぎで、そのせいで左右の視力が違うのだろうが、手で覆えば出来るなら、慣らせばそのうち手無しでも出来るようになるはず。

뱀파이어가 죽을 수 있는 것은 태양에서 나온 입자인 Photon가 아닐까 합니다. 포톤을 감지할 수 있는 피부를 뱀파이어가 가진거죠. 그럼 달에 반사된 태양빛은 포톤은 달을 한번 때렸기 때문에 포톤이 약해진 상태입니다. 트란실베니아 사람들을 그때 벌써 포톤을 알고 있었죠. 어라?
좀 더 세련된 방법으로 포장하겠지만 결국 MMO도 명시적인 버전 또는 시즌을 도입하고 버전 또는 시준 사이에 재화 이동에 제한을 가하는 방식으로 변할겁니다. 진짜 방법이 없어요.
