Seriously we need to stop this idea that Charles Martinet would be a good mario for 90 minutes. He does a fantastic job with the short quips and reaction lines but god if you hear him trying to do long form mario it is just grating and awful.

A reminder that the Mr. Blue Sky video in Just Dance 2022 is utterly delightful

I think you’re minimizing in the extreme. She didn’t just “defraud rich people”, she destroyed the livelihoods of thousands of employees and crushed their retirements; she clobbered her suppliers and customers and so on. Crime on her level is a cascade of harm, not all of it visible to people who concentrate solely on…

This. The average meta developer makes 3 times what I do even when you factor in the silicon valley cost of living

There are still a RIDICULOUS number of tech jobs out there. They may not be for “the big dogs,” but for example, my company (in Atlanta, GA) has been trying to hire new web developers for like the past six months, and for extremely generous salaries. We’ve not been able to find anyone because there’s so much demand.

oh, if i was getting paid at that level, i could probably be good for a year or 2.  

Especially after you look at Meta salaries and realize 4 months pay there still puts you among the highest paid people in the country.

He’s the controlling shareholder — the only way he can ever take responsibility is by losing money. Him resigning wouldn’t change the fact that he retains de facto control of the company. Facebook is Zuck’s toy to screw up or not, and everyone who works there should be crystal clear that they are placing their…

honestly, those severance terms sound pretty sweet. I could make that 4 months pay last for 6, easily. I’d volunteer for a buyout like that. Not that it absolves Zuck for his callous idiocy or anything...

As someone who spends the most of my time playing support, it’s just not really fun to play in Overwatch 2. It has all the same problems as Overwa1ch (stupid teammates, being blamed for losing everything) but with the extra pressure of having one less tank to protect you. Like, playing support may as well be playing…

jason schreiers update is interesting and makes a lot of sense. as union minimum rates are based around $/hour of recording, the offer of 4k from the very beginning assumed only a small amount of material recorded, which Jason Schreirer confirms was a cameo offered as condolence after re-casting her when negotiations…

I have heard several Devil’s Advocate arguments that are causing me to reexamine (note: not fully reverse) my sympathies for Hellena Taylor.

Just tried to read up on this story and Google was suspiciously unwilling to finish her name or assist me with the spelling, after I got it right, every result is just porn, could have done with a heads up :/

Definitely more than just her side of this story. She could have raised all of this publicly (or leaked it) when the game was still in development, to give her leverage, but instead she decided to take her shot a week before release. Why? What’s the whole story here? Were they planning to drop her for legitimate…

That’s why there’s more to the story than just one side. You don’t “cheap out” when you go with Jennifer Hale. Her resume is massive. She’s more experienced. She’d cost much more.

THRILLHO, come on

Murray also stayed by Radner’s side until the end when she was dying, and they remained great friends up until her final moments. As noted elsewhere here, he also punched Chevy Chase and devastatingly called him a “medium talent” for being insanely terrible to the women on SNL. Maybe he’s a human being with flaws,…

Sounds like an idea Barry Zuckerkorn dreamed up.

twitch was a mistake

How about we just nuke the whole thing from orbit?
