Oh wow, thanks! I’d given up on getting a real answer, but now here you are!
no GPS tracking
So it won’t be able to tell my current position in low power mode?

At a high level, Scrabble isn’t about what words you know – it’s about strategy and board control, being able to take advantage of space to play while denying your opponent space.
How much control does the average worker have over the state? Practically none.
The system can never be run by the working classes, not in the long run. The system works for the system’s own ends – power corrupts, even power supposedly held by the workers.
Need some ridiculous and stupid rules.


So you’re telling me there’s a chance…
Don’t be an ass.
This rule is heavily biased against donkeys.


Dude with the huge head, tiny face, and leaky neck.


Or as I like to call them, “collaborators”.


I’d love to see Democrats running on that for 2026 elections.
Dems: “Best I can do is running on slightly reforming ICE, and maybe making it illegal for them to wear masks … unless it’s cold or they feel it’s necessary for their safety.”
The means by which those with power enforce their will upon those without.
Out of curiosity who do you think controls the state in China?
Not the workers.


“Can’t afford it” is very, very different than “not physically possible”.
If our economic system changed, then it could be perfectly viable again.
“When the poor make the laws” the system stays the same. The laws protect those who make the laws and punish those who don’t.
What we need is no laws at all.
Sure buddy, sure.
Take it this way, then:
Socialism is when the workers are in control of the means of production. Supposedly, socialist countries accomplish this by the state being in control of the means of production and the workers supposedly in control of the state. But in reality, the workers are not in control of the state, so the workers are not in control of the means of production, and it’s not socialism.


So, in other words, it’s perfectly viable … just not economically viable.
That’s a failure of our economy, not of the technology. Perhaps if all the externalities of fossil fuel emissions were included in the cost of fossil fuel shipping (say, with massive taxes on fossil fuels to fund environmental efforts and carbon capture), that would change the balance.
State capitalism is not socialism, and it is not a friend of the working class.
Sounds like it would be a lot easier, and even more of a ‘board control’ game.
And you’d be able to play your whole 7 letters in pretty much every turn (if you wanted to), since you’ll always be able to find some combination of your 7 letters that doesn’t form a real word. Or … at least almost always? I find it hard to imagine any combination of 7 letters that will always spell a real word no matter which order you put them in.
