That's why math is a superior discipline Danny boy

I was obsessed with Goldeney and Legend of Zelda on the N64 in the 90s but then I lost interest in video games for ten years

couldn't get intot he newer consoles after that generation

I used to play video games a lot

now I just barely play anything but try to know about games

so I can gamergate troll when I want to

Quit a year ago and have noted dramatic improvements in my life

Not attributing them exclusively to games, but I think quitting was beneficial

prioritizing your time is always important

with games I'd have to reason why I am playing a game, what effect it will have on my psyche and how long it will take

that requires prioritizing your activities, too

and what I'd be doing otherwise

"could I be deadlifting? have I finished my book?"

Essential activities are obviously most important

important is too loaded I think

how about, higher order?

creative pursuits are fundamentally of a higher order than non-creative ones

Whatever

I agree with that I guess

I said "superior" originally

that works too

maslowe's hierarchy maybe relevant here

the only time I play videogames is if I would otherwise be watching tv instead due to brain drain and weariness

but that ends up being like an hour every two weeks or something

or maybe you could have two axes, one abstract one material

within abstract, some would be lower, some higher

but overall, the highest would be abstract

I guess the lowest would be too

sounds like we need a curvy Z axis

nothing is worse than watching automated online training modules

that's epic

I'm saving that

you need to see @Nester's drawings

I wonder if he has them saved

but we must also asked what is produced/created

what is produced may be an effect on the self and remain valid

yeah, the above is just rudimentary

probably wrong too

IT'S AWESOME
