Apparently Tim Sweeney’s dad sent floppies of ZZT to anybody who ordered them until he ran out, sometime in the 2010s IIRC.

His name is Jack Welch and while he’s dead he sure left around enough “management advice” to get inside his skull.

I have to wonder what’s going to happen as the market shifts. It’s pretty clear that large pickups and three-row SUVs are not appealing to most people born after the Kennedy administration, and yet that’s all most automakers seem to want to sell

While I would be amazed if Tesla’s per-unit profit wasn’t calculated rather generously in statements that won’t be evidence in court, Tesla has been audited often enough by enough people that I doubt they’re pulling a Crazy Eddie.

What makes this worse is this is an EXTREMELY well-known AWS error. 

Government tends to skew old in its formats. They’re tested, they’re widely compatible, and the risks for using it are generally well known.

You and I both know that the way “cancel culture” is used by guys like Spencer deliberately ignores people like Quinn. And you're a damn coward trying to lump them in with "the internet hurt my precious white man feefees." Take a seat.

Re: The 194X games, postwar Japan’s view of World War II is... complicated, to understate it by like a thousand orders of magnitude.

Also McGuinness did love him a detailed outfit, as was the fashion at the time.

LOL my dude if you think "experiencing negative consequences" is "being cancelled" I have some really bad news about how life works.

Quite a few. I'm not the biggest fan of David Graeber but "Bullshit Jobs" is fascinating in this respect.

Yeah as a cheap prick I can't say this horrifies or offends me. Especially since the devs have signposted this kind of thing clearly from the beginning. Everybody knew what they were getting into and got what they were promised.

Technically it's on sale now.

I don’t know that a recession in the way we think of one is inevitable. Part of the problem with the narrative is that everyone is acting like the only way to solve this problem is by reducing labor demand. You’ve got people like Larry Summers spraying urine everywhere over “wage inflation.”

I have a sneaking suspicion that Activision has figured out a way to game the system and inflate Calladuty’s numbers and that’s why it’s acting like Enron before the hammer dropped. I can’t prove it, but if in the end it turns out Kotick and the board were, like, automating loot box purchases to pump the stock price…

Whenever I’ve ask who does the canceling the most precise answer I get is “liberals.” They won’t even tell me which “liberals.” Just that “liberals” cancel people.

I love Polaris and I am amazed in all the “X card is OP” whining she hasn’t been subject to a nerf demand.

Well, the entire impetus of the game is to regularly swap decks, to the point where if you have a winning streak with a deck the matchmaking will actively start pairing you with people who can effectively trash you (can I prove this, no, but I know it in my soul.) So just play a death deck, or if you want to be a real…

Whenever I hear somebody prattling about “cancel culture” I just roll my eyes they believe in that fucking hoax. Nobody picks up a book and thinks “Will the Tumblr kids approve of my purchase?”

Nor will buying Activision, which is emitting like every POSSIBLE sign it's been up to Some Shit. In fact if Microsoft paid those 10,000 people to fuck around at the office they’d probably get a better return on investment.
