 all strategy games should (by default) show other player's mouse cursors.
 players should treat them like units in the game. they should lead and command
 with them. they should talk to the other player, and visit and vview
 invormation as they will.

 another cool thing about FAF is that you can download a mod that shows the
 position of your cursor to other players. So weird how after a while all the
 cursors started staying permanently in the top-left corner.

 it is significantly more engaging to watch people play MMOs when they've
 unbound all their action bars from their number keys and are forced to click
 on all the abilities. That way you can actually follow what moves they're
 doing.

 can also bind backspace and delete if you have enough keys

 [2] players who played better should be compensated to a higher degree. no
 more than +/- 50-100% or so - this encourages players to "play their best"
 while also keeping the stakes relatively similar.

 That happens a lot with online people. You can only see one side of them, the
 side they present to the camera, and so it's difficult to find new ways of
 looking at them. Hopefully you can find the brighter sides of this person! I'm
 sure they exist, unless the person is spiralling. Then they'll often be
 pushing themselves first one way, then the next, but both directions point
 down... And that produces the ":(" feeling. Good luck!

 sometimes, comments need to go on the left side of text. Like for parts of the
 script which should be user-editable, the fields should all be right-aligned
 to the farthest required bit of text. Instead of [picture A] it should be
 [picture B]
an example script written in the bash computer language that has all the variables hidden behind comments on the left. makes it very hard to try new variables. the same picture, but the variables are moved to the right.  now it's easier for the user to update them since they don't have to use their mouse.

 Consumption is contribution to a capitalist system. Normalize taking whatever
 you are given and living as humbly as you can. Only when everyone does that
 may capitalism die. Talk to them, learn from their stories. Teach them your
 ways but don't force anything upon them. Any ounce of regret is defined as a
 mind not aligned to the angle of perception that designs the line that the
 collective mind co-re-assigns.

 Wikipedia would make a lot more sense to me if they included pictures next to

 might pattern match meaning onto the visual understandings gleaned from the
 perceptual conceiving which were arrayed within and alongside the textual
