However, not all of us are blessed with this sometimes overlooked right as there are a number of countries in this world where governments actively censor their citizens, especially those whose profession is to report facts. Journalists. In a number of places around the world, journalists are banned, jailed, exiled, and even killed for their words. In order to make their message heard and reach the places where they’re banned, Reporters Without Borders (RSF) opened a special type of library that could reach millions. They built it in Minecraft. The creators reason their choice by explaining the library’s accessibility: “Reporters Without Borders (RSF) used this backdoor to build “The Uncensored Library”: a library that is now accessible on an open server for Minecraft players around the globe.

Enact radical reforms, tax the rich, transform the economy, tackle the most pressing issues without alienating voters or bankrupting the government. But beware: the ruling class won't give up its power easily. Even your closest allies may turn on you. *Hundreds of choices based on existing policy proposals*Randomly generated scenarios and multiple endings*Room for different play styles, ideologies, and strategies*A cast of extremely opinionated anthropomorphic animals*Original Soundtrack by Jesse Stiles The Democratic Socialism Simulator is an attempt to prefigure the opportunities and challenges of a Sanders (or Sanders-like) presidency.

Först när Mats var död förstod föräldrarna värdet av hans gaming

Ville inte att han skulle vända på dygnet och sådana saker, säger Robert Steen. Det är 23 augusti 2018. Robert sitter på ett kafé ett stenkast från sitt kontor i Oslo rådhus och berättar om sin son. Han säger att det gör ont, men också känns bra att berätta. - I efterhand tänker jag att vi borde ha intresserat oss mer för spelvärlden han var så mycket i. Pappa Robert och de okända vännerna Knappt fyra år tidigare stod Robert vid sonens kista i Vestre gravlunds Nye kapell och höll minnestal för Mats. Bland dem som satt på kapellets blå stolar och lyssnade på Roberts ord – mellan familjemedlemmar och några få från hälso- och sjukvården som kände Mats väl – satt människor familjen inte kände.

Read more predictions about the Future of Gaming. When I discuss diversity in video games, I ask the audience to pull out their phones and Google the word gamer. “What do you see?” I ask them. “How many people look like me?” Often times, the answer is “none.” The story that has been told about who plays video games is wrong. Research shows that most people think the average gamer is a white, heterosexual man. Diversity of game players Several studies indicate that African Americans, Latinx (the gender-neutral term for Latinos and Latinas), and Asians are more active in the gaming community than their white counterparts.

People of color also play for longer: A study found that youth of color between 8 and 18 play games roughly 30 minutes more per day than white youth of the same age. The data on women are just as telling. In 2014, the global games market was worth $70.4 billion. Diversity of game-makers. Your Brain on Video Games Video. Art by Oskar Stålberg.
