Thanks for sharing that, my dood.
It’s been bugging me for years that many rural ppl didn’t have internet. Nowadays it’s almost a necessity of life. Also, thanks for not giving Musk any money.

BREAKING: IMPERIAL DEATH STAR OBLITERATES ALDERAAN, BILLIONS PRESUMED DEAD
By John Patriot, Fox News Galactic Correspondent May 5, 2025
IMPERIAL CENTER — In a show of overwhelming force that has sent shockwaves throughout the galaxy, the Galactic Empire’s new battle station, dubbed the “Death Star,” has completely destroyed the peaceful planet of Alderaan. Imperial sources confirm the planet was reduced to asteroids in a matter of seconds.
Emperor Palpatine defended the military action as “necessary to maintain peace and security” across the galaxy, citing intelligence reports claiming Alderaan had become a hotbed for Rebel Alliance sympathizers.
“This was not a decision taken lightly,” said Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin in an exclusive interview. “But when faced with growing terrorist threats from the so-called Rebel Alliance, we had no choice but to demonstrate the consequences of treason against the legitimate government of the galaxy.”
Republican senators praised the decisive action, with Senator Orrin Maul (R-Dathomir) calling it “a much-needed response to the weak policies of previous administrations that allowed rebel insurgency to fester.”
Critics on the left have decried the destruction as “disproportionate” and “an unprecedented humanitarian disaster,” but military experts note that the demonstration of the Death Star’s capabilities may prevent future conflicts by deterring other systems from harboring rebel elements.
Imperial military strategist Admiral Firmus Piett explained, “Sometimes you need to make an example. The destruction of one planet could save countless lives by preventing a prolonged galactic civil war.”
The Death Star, described as a moon-sized battle station with unprecedented firepower, represents the pinnacle of Imperial military technology. Sources close to the project say it was completed ahead of schedule and under budget, a testament to Imperial efficiency.
Princess Leia Organa, a suspected Rebel sympathizer and Alderaan’s representative in the Imperial Senate, was reportedly detained hours before the incident on charges of espionage and treason. Imperial authorities have confirmed she is being held for questioning regarding stolen technical data.
Markets responded positively to the news, with Imperial Defense contractors seeing stocks surge by as much as 15%. Economic analysts predict a boom in reconstruction and security sectors as the Empire continues its campaign to restore order.
The Emperor is expected to address the galaxy tomorrow from the Imperial Palace, where he will likely outline next steps in the ongoing effort to secure peace and stability for law-abiding citizens throughout Imperial space.
Fox News will continue to provide updates on this developing story as more information becomes available.

Fake news. The Death Star, if it exists, is nowhere near Alderaan, which also doesn’t exist, and we need nothing from it. Though it’s cherished immensely.

That’s a really great question. I will leave it to other people in the comments to answer.
I took OP’s question to mean, “Give me some top-down game suggestions”.
Now that I read it again, I see your point. But also, I can’t think of any of the suggestions in this thread as being unique.

Factorio is a game in which you build and maintain factories. You will be mining resources, researching technologies, building infrastructure, automating production and fighting enemies.

This reminds me of 2010 when lootboxes and gacha games were okay because teaching children to gamble with Dad’s credit card was awesome.
15 years later and YouTube doesn’t even know what gambling is anymore, lol.

Average income is about 60k, I can’t see a way past the triple cost for housing to make up for the comparatively tiny hit you’ll take in income.

Because they don’t know how to do a spreadsheet for household budget.
Once you see the numbers all laid out, living in a small town is usually better in NA.
