> The bottom floor has a big area full of chess and go boards, and there were in fact a couple of people using them!

Very cheap, relatively benign, with light educational and recreational value.

Decent.

> and a built-in cinema, which shows classic movies for little money.

Some of it can have benign cultural value, some of it can have malign cultural value. A bit expensive. Could have limited it to more boring but educational movies and films, perhaps with a focus on edutainment friendly to young children. Why spend taxpayer money on enabling people to watch braindead, mindrotting zombie movies for free or cheap?

Bad and soulless, fire whoever was involved with this.

> professional digital working stations, with high-quality screens!

Expensive. Some educational potential, some startup potential, but will that be realized?

Serves some fields but not others. Did they take a look at demand and supply regarding society?

Vulnerable to theft, grift and corruption?

Too expensive, cheaper hardware would probably have made more sense, unless they can make a strong case for the expensive hardware.

> There’s a big number of recording studios and sound production studios, all of which you can rent!

Is there really a dearth of professional musicians in Finnish society? This seems focused on startups and budding professionals, but a much cheaper space with much cheaper instruments that could be given to children both young and old, where instruments can be cheaply replaced once the children breaks them, would have much higher educational and creative value.

Bad and soulless, fire everyone involved with this.

> Oh, and while we’re at it, why don’t we rent some instruments, as well? There’s full-time staff maintaining them.

Grift and corruption, fire everyone involved with this, go straight to prison, do not collect $200.

> There’s many small and big group rooms which you can rent, many of them in active use! I see group meetings, students working, and podcast interviews being recorded!

Genuinely great for students, not that expensive. Good.

> Wanna rent a kitchen and cook with your friends? Sure, you can do that here!

A bit expensive. For homeless people and grift. The library staff might end up discriminating against homeless people, or have extra grift. Could have been good if limited to educational usage for children and teenagers, with adult supervision.

Have fun with homeless people committing theft in the library.

Bad.

> You can also rent game rooms with modern video game consoles and VR gear, along with the games to play in them!

Bad, corrupt and expensive. Could have been used for some more meaningful purposes like education and startups. Like letting children and teenagers try VR gear and program software for it, and possibly get inspired for non-entertainment usage of VR such as remote healthcare.

If really insisting on mindrotting entertainment that people can do at home, then it could have been done much more cheaply.

Fire everyone involved with it.

> There’s a makerspace: It has several 3D printers, multiple laser cutters, and engravers. And staff which can help you learn how to use them.

> Sewing machines! Shirt presses! Cutting plotters!

Expensive. Could be great regarding startups and education. Did they analyze needs for society, or did they do it due to it being trendy? Probably still good.

> fire everyone involved with this.

I know you’re just trying to show off how superior you are, and you haven’t really thought through the implications of somebody getting fired for making a mistake, but I’d like this rhetorical flourish to end. Making a mistake (or disappointing an internet commenter who’s put in very little thought and even less effort into a solution) isn’t something that should threaten people’s livelihoods.

On a related note, your style of post comes across as immature and/or socially inept. You might want to rethink how you present yourself online.

>Why spend taxpayer money on enabling people to watch braindead, mindrotting zombie movies for free or cheap?

Might want to open their webpage at least once before you spout such uninformed opinions: https://kinoregina.fi/

Their whole thing is showing mostly culturally important films from known and lesser known directors/actors from around the world. I honestly don't think it could provide much more cultural value than it already does.

I was going to write more but the more I read your post it just looks like troll post so I'll just point out that yes, they do also provide movie and arts education, which is also stated on their website.

>Have fun with homeless people committing theft in the library.

Oh yeah.

In Finland, the country notoriously famous for its unmanageable homelessness problem.

Get a reality check, my friend.

It almost reads as you were not a fan.

Corrupt and soulless people will downvote this.
