Exactly; renewables moved too fast, were too accessible to those outside the energy industry - which, for well over a century, pretty much just meant “fossil fuel industry”.
That’s because they’ve got hundreds of billions of dollars invested in fossil fuel infrastructure assets — refineries, rigs, derricks, tankers, etc, etc. All those assets will become stranded assets (ie worthless) if humanity gets over its ‘Drill, baby, drill’ obsession. The people with huge sums invested in oil…
Yeah, but that whole ‘pivot back to’ thing would imply they stopped focusing on gasoline at some point. That never happened. The most they did was spend a tiny amount on examining how they could capture and control renewables the same way they currently do with fossil fuel. The answer was clearly, “No.” So they’re…
Let’s see how that’s going...oh my.
I’m surprised they didn’t sponsor Call Of Duty, since they, y’know, sponsored the original war half those games are based on.
This is what happens when oil companies have billions to burn on lame attempts to improve their images but not on improving the environment, you should definitely be pissed at all involved for blatantly obvious self serving propaganda being licked up by IGN and influencers. It’s indeed sick af when corporate image is…
I can’t imagine Pen Island was not deliberate.
One of the first things we learned in graphic design class and they used penisland.com as an example. Heck I’m old and I read it as “shell station sus”.
“Hey kids! You’re absolutely fucked because we just refuse to pivot our business away from fossil fuels. But at least you can floss in Fortnite!” - the soulless cock-gobblers at Shell
I actually finished that game last year sometime. It’s pretty good, but definitely has some problems:
Already hated this based on this headline and this just makes it even worse
I love how they are trying to be cool with the kids and then have the tag “shellstationsus”
Shell Stations US was probably their intention... but the kids will read it differently.
It’s not your day’s fault.
Maybe I am just having a bad day, but this just strikes me as sick AF. Fuck Shell, IGN and those streamers and I am glad that people are pushing back.
Played through all of it on the Switch. It was a good, fun gap filler between Verdict Day and VI. The mechs don’t have the same feeling of weight that AC masters, and they fly more like 4th gens. It was fun though. It’s not as polished as a proper AC game but it’s totally serviceable if you already like the genre. I…
I havent played AC6 yet but I did play a bit of Daemon x Machina.

I work for a law firm and it’s not crazy to me that someone in litigation has a gaming laptop. The cost difference in a high end gaming laptop and a high end laptop for work is not an important factor. Hell, an IT person could have provided that for her with the idea that it could be theirs for free in two years.
