All Gawker sites seem to have gotten a silent mandate to absolutely minimize any possible outside links or screens unless they have been explicitly supplied to them. There’s an article up on AV Club right now talking about Lindsey Lohan’s ‘fursona’ with no actual image of it even though it’s directly in the linked…

Ehh, it’s really mostly because there are several different ad networks out there, and each does things differently in display and functionality. When you toss multiples into your game (which you should otherwise it’s really easy to run out of ads for the user), you end up with the crappy user experience of every ad…

Yep. I can’t think of a single standup where we didn’t have *someone* chime in with a comment or update or offer to help with something during it. This would just slow things down. Also, I can see this slow communication DOWN.

Watched this movie in theaters during high school on a date. Nearly empty theater, we sat near the back row and....... watched the whole thing, enthralled. How many romcoms can say that?

Episodes will arrive on Netflix three days after airing in the U.K.

Heh, from the description:

It’s worth noting that Daring Fireball is run by John Gruber, who has super super tight ties to Apple. He interviews product heads and others attached to Apple after every development conference and press release.

Incorrect on the sub time thing. The only thing that changed is that you can’t get 30 day *time cards* anymore, only 60 days. Any pre-paid subscription is unchanged.

I’m confused. There’s a Smash Bros speedrun on day one and there was a Lethal League speedrun in SGDQ in 2019. They aren’t super common but they’re definitely not prohibited.

Most certainly, which is why I’m honestly trying to get things straight. It *seems* like this is some really weird sudden outrage against a person who by all other accounts (that we’ve seen/read about) has grown from the experience and become better from it.

Just so I’m understanding: John Barrowman did some really crappy things in 2008 (and probably before). He was formally reprimanded. He apologized. He hasn’t done said crappy things since then. He is now being cut out of things due to these issues 13 years later.

Wait, Mercedes Lackey? What did I miss here? I’ve read her entire Valdemar series multiple times, part of Elemental Masters, and she’s often posting on Quora. Nothing I’ve seen from her would lead me to a “Classic fiction, at a cost of repulsion.”

It will never happen because Indy is as white as white comes, but I think Donald Glover could *totally* pull off both a quippy and more serious Indiana Jones.

I’m confused. This lists Phoenix as a new expansion and is spoken of as such in the article, but the LA to Phoenix line has been around forever (called the Sunset Limited, goes from LA to New Orleans). It *does* fall under the whole “pretty much the middle of the night” train thing, but it’s certainly nothing new.

Robin Pronovost, a trans non-binary creative ... and uses they/them/he pronouns.

That’s always been my top of the line argument towards “good” DLC. The small boutique publisher I work for has *always* done DLC that way, even for stuff that was technically kinda sorta on-disc. The closest we’ve had to a “it’s just an unlock” key was for a set of weapons that had finished models but dummy stats in…

Not quite. The realms will progress to TBC, but you’ll be able to clone your character to a Classic Only realm before that happens.

Not at all, and especially not during the pandemic when most (if not all) employees are working from home. Source code needs to be pulled, worked on, and committed. Email needs to be read and replied to. There’s no way to airgap any of that. Company docs, maybe, depending on what those compromised documents actually…

Already “Out of Stock” according to the Ubisoft site. How Ubi can be out of stock on its own game on its own store I dunno, but there it is (or isn’t).

Just waiting for them to reboot what is already a masterpiece into something unrecognizable, Uno: The Movie.
