There is a Swedish film on this subject. As described on imdb:
A German business man, Volkswagner, comes to Österlen in the south of Sweden to build Deutschneyland, a gigantic amusement park for German tourists. The local councilors and the member of parliament are all in favor of the idea, although it will turn vast areas into parking lots for cars. The Lindberg family does not like the idea and with the help of a little magic, they start scheming against it.
There are scenes where they are walking around in the middle of nature going
Can you imagine a better place for a popcorn stand?
And stuff like that. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068025/
Hahaha that actually sounds quite funny
That’s why they are dismantling the Forrest service
Well for mining first, then yeah sell the ripped land to companies.
Lots of water for a new datacenter that will allow you to undress minions
This is one sentence with at least three things in it that should be crimes.
Still more legal than what happened with Grok
Isnt it still happening?
Anyone play Satisfactory? Beautiful nature, yet you are directed to exploit the planet. Reminds me of that.
As a Factorio player, what's more beautiful than an endless concrete sprawl.
I’ve been playing Arknights Endfield and what makes it feel silly is that the story is all about saving this precious, pristine grassy environment from blight and destruction…and you do it by making giant resource-mining factories.
My latest challenge mode in that game is to try and develop infrastructure while destroying as little of the natural environment as possible.
This has led to building a number of offshore plants, but the difficulty is having to still run materials to them before unlocking drones to do it for me.
Whenever I have to build in the interior, I've tried to focus on building tall instead of wide so that it doesn't take up much land space. But that does cause the horizon to become cluttered with a few industrial spires.
I can't help but have to destroy some of the environment to get early biofuel power going, but I focus on finding as many crash sites as I can early on to skip to coal as quickly as possible.
You could make structures that get high and then became wide
I once made a computer factory that was essentially a large floating octahedron. It had a condensed feed of materials coming in from one point in the bottom and a few drone ports to bring in other completed parts around the middle. I didn't plan for it, but just started building stages wider as I went taller until I noticed subsequent stages required less space, after which I started going in reverse.
You made me want to do the same challange, but i'il do it on minecraft with the Create mod
You've got to ask yourself, what did Nature ever do to us? Clearly Walwart provides us with food, drinks, computers, entertainment, weapons, ...
Tires, eyeglasses, vaccines, live fish (they stopped this one, I think), medicine.
Nature needs to step up her game.
There might come a day that Walmart has more live fish than nature.
Roads? No wait... That was the Romans.
Not in america I can assure you that.
I used to live in a small town who successfully kept out a Walmart and Cracker Barrel. The former because it would have paved over a historic farm and cost millions to extend the sewer, and the latter because “we already have restaurants.”
I miss that place.
"They paved paradise and put up a parking lot"
How beautiful nature would be if we just plagued it with ads...
I need an AR program "CEO vision" that lets me view pristine natural environments as strip malls
I think I might know where this picture was taken. Not far from here. Weird.
I had the same thought. Wallow Whitman National forest? North Matthieu Lake?
What was your guess?
Jefferson park maybe?
Nature: perfect as is Humans: needs more parking 😭
No no no, first you have to make a subdivision with cookie cutter houses and "whimsical" road planning, then you name it after the mountain ecosystem you bulldozed to make it. The walmart is built at the bottom of the mountain on the less important mountain ecosystem.
🎶 🎵 Paved over paradise,
and put up a parking lot 🎵🎶
Looks like Little Tipsoo Lake. Tons of traffic through that area.
Mmmm, makes my stockholder value go up ;)
Like... On top of the lake?
Might actually be nice if it was all wooden and looked a bit like a big beaver dam. 🤔
We'll drain and pave over the lake.
