This game's primary mechanic is decision making and deck-building. There is no wagering or gambling of money real or otherwise. Only someone grossly misinformed could consider this game gambling, and by their logic would disqualify all games that had any elements of randomness.
I did a double take when I saw this title on the front page of Hacker News. I didn't think it was super well known and I just started playing it again. I hate gambling in games more than anything, and it kills me to see 2K continue to get away with literal slot machines and roulettes, with real money and given an "E" for "Everyone" by a group that is run by a lot of these triple-A board members.
Of course it's a naive statement on its own. I mean only to enforce the fact that YouTube's advertising stance is predatory and has been since day one.
This is what I thought was the case since the "Adpolcalypse". I made the point to my colleagues that what YouTube wanted was slightly predatory in nature. Kids have no spending power, why are we catering to them on that platform? Why can't an adult, who has spending power, watch edgy content if they want to? Kids are exploited while adults are being treated like children.
Then there was the instance, a sort of another soft "Adpocalypse" where all these videos featuring children had creepy comments. This caused a culling of comments on certain videos, but it was ultimately a situation YouTube had fostered.
The milestone that marks GNU Guix 1.0 is their package manager I believe. At its core, this system still uses Linux as its kernel, so it's not the 'pure GNU' system that I believe you're describing. As it stands, GNU Hurd is still another 30 years away from completion (sadly). The GNU project's vision has been effectively realized with the Linux kernel, which itself is protected by the GNU GPL. GNU succeeded long ago, but this is their iteration of a free system with the Linux kernel.
I don't think capitalism and RMS' principles are mutually exclusive. RedHat was a big step towards proving this. One of my favorite games is open source (ToME), and I happily bought and paid for it. I'd happily pay for an open source, freedom-respecting operating system if my support was prioritized and didn't consist of canned answers from someone's clipboard. Closed, proprietary software has greatly benefited from many free software principles, albeit by strip mining the ever living crap out of them.
