Were it a political show, it would have happened last month, not after the midterm.

I think Nvidia is now America's biggest exporter, overtaking Boeing. What's going on there matters quite a lot to the nation. It is a vital interest now.

Though I kinda wish they had stuck with just making videocards. I might still be able to afford one.

No, it's a funny name but not a good one. You don't want your new term to be one that can't be used by the news. Doctorow was being too clever by half with "enshittification", which is never discussed by major news outlets because they can't. This falls into the same category. Also how the hell do you pronounce it? Starsshole? Sssss hole?

Yes, it's a little better since it doesn't actually contain an obscenity, but it is clearly meant to imply one. That impacts the ability to inform people about it.

To serve an affluent 1st world clientele?

Because you want to make a movie that involves swords, and American audiences won't go to see it unless the actors have British accents because anything old or involving swords is, in our minds, inherently British?

Because you like the food? Okay, that one might not be as realistic.

Yeah, it's about a Paraguayan bank, but not the central one. Central banks exist, in large part, to reduce the risk of political mismanagement of the monetary system. But no system involving humans is invulnerable to corruption.

Though it may not be corruption here. After all, it was the central bank that did the audits, found the problems, and locked the bank down. It did its job, despite being run by someone associated with the now shuttered Ueno.
