I can’t wait until his son’s begin an arms manufacturing company and get hundreds of billions in defense contracts and then entire companies of troops get owned in war when their guns spontaneously explode in their face and the tanks rounds detonates prior to firing. Capitalist efficiency!

I for one am aghast that the corporate world is such cowards. It’s almost like they don’t operate on normal principals that a sane person would and rather only pursue the accumulation of capital above all mother concerns.

The only thing I hate more than AGILE or any other workplace words, is the rock headed coworkers who try to defend it.

Oh no… I hate it.

I’ve really been enjoying ranged touch network of podcasts lately. They have: Baldur’s Gate replay podcasts (mages and murder dad’s), Stephen King book podcasts (just King things), fallout games podcast (too much future), video game academia discussion (game studies study buddies), sci fi/fantasy book club (shelved by genre), A homestar runner retrospective podcast (homestuck made this world)

I think they’re leftists, they’re certainly anti-liberals at least, and they are funny and knowledgeable about things and I always learn more about anything when I listen to their content.

There was lots of Atari/intellivision games my dad and uncles had when I was little. But first first? Probably like Combat though, I have several memories of playing at my great uncles house using the weirdest controller ever built, it had like little picture slides you put in that showed what buttons did what for the game.

Yea but Xbox division is like 2 decades old so they’re probably afraid of shit canning the whole thing. It is likely that Spencer goes down with the ship though after failing to achieve anything beyond securing Xbox’s position in third place so firmly and distantly that the only remaining option is Microsoft just buying Sony completely to get the market the hard way. They’ll wait until Kamala replaces Lena Kahn at the FTC first though.

Sounds like this constitution is a piece of shit that maybe should have been tossed a century ago when it was no longer relevant to the world we lived in.

It’s like people who want help shopping at the grocery store. A robot is basically useless. My average interaction:

“Do you have this thing?”

Is it a food thing or a non food thing?

“It’s a bin, for food”

Okay, you want a big bin or a little one, disposable or resuable? Made of glass or plastic? Aisle 2.

“It’s food, I can’t eat plastics or glass.” Okay… You want beans maybe?

“Yes yes beans that’s what I said”

Okay aisle 5, right hand side halfway down.

Customers frequently don’t know what they want, or even how to say it. So I spent 5 minutes looking for a Greek spice ziitar when they were looking for an arabic/north Africa spice Zaatar that is in the world food section.

Imagine a robot trying to decipher this, especially when many people have accents as well, or they just show you a picture of a thing. I can work it out, it takes a little to time. The robot would also be useless because our store carries like millions of things and has at one point carries most things but it’s a luck of the draw if we currently carry something. So ask a robot, do you carry tahini sauce? Yes we do, we currently have 0 at negative 1 dollar located in section not found. Because that’s all the computer is going to say for like 90% of the tahini stuff we carry since we’ve switched brands a dozen times and they all are still stores there even though we haven’t carried many for over a decade.

The hollywood initiative has paid dividends for the military. Consulting on basically every major picture that even wants to shoot a profile shot of a helicopter, with control of the script means that negative portrayals of the military are few and far between. The official podcast of hexbear talked about it

Shares a granola bar full of peanuts and lies and tells me there’s no peanuts in it. RIP me.

Yeah but corpo speak doesn’t need to concern itself with actual meanings of words. So long as they confuse you enough to let them slide their hand in your pocket they are happy to be scolded on using language incorrectly.

I hope this means we get like entire divisions that the company forgets it has and so people can do nothing and get paid their salary because nobody higher up remembers they exist and the bookkeeper who would notice the pay going somewhere was also let go.

In 30 years they’ll find the remnants of computers and assume graphics cards were just funky portable heating units. Back then the planet still got cold after all, so people needed a way to stay warm.

Able to touch their toes

The most positive I’ve heard is that it is a by the numbers Bethesda rpg game. It doesn’t try to be anything more. If you liked fallout 4 and skyrim odds are you’ll like this.
