Acceptance of death as a "permanent terminus" may compel one to place a greater degree of value on various aspects of the life they do have, such as the worth of their time or the magnitude of their actions, than they would if they didn't believe death was a "permanent terminus". From this perspective theism may even pose a threat to one living well or effectively.

I don't pre-order anything, but I am looking forward to it.

This is far more processor intensive than you realize. For example if you have five players in a game, each in different areas with unique materials and sound reflections (eg: upstairs, ground floor, basement, backyard, and front yard) that are all shouting out to one another, then you have to apply precise filter and reverb/echo effects to twenty audio streams in realtime. This is achievable but the processor cost can quickly get out of hand. And how do you deal with audio input lag?

As far as I know it does not. The best you can do for multiplayer is local play.

You could install retro game emulators using one of two different methods, as described here and here, to play Super Mario Kart games from the SNES to the Wii and everything inbetween on your Xbox Series X. Or you could get a Switch.

Cutting back energy use, adopting carbon sequestering technologies without the requirement that they're profitable, and implementing nuclear / solar / tidal / geothermal are already viable today, the only deterrent is they're expensive and would require the 1% to chip in. It's not even clear fusion on the other hand will even be technologically viable in any of our lifetimes.

It's not actually clear if fusion power will even be viable within any of our lifetimes though -- for example there's supply issues with the necessary tritium, there's problems replicating the breakthroughs, etc. -- so "betting big" on fusion is quite literally gambling on an uncertain technology, at least for now.

I feel like we're gambling on (uncertain) technologies like fusion because the (proven) alternatives are so much more difficult.
