They didn’t lose actual money, as the headline says. They lost market cap which is closer to (but not quite) value.

Key bit there, “newfound relevance”. Ethan, do you remember every question you were asked three month ago, let alone three years ago?

I had to check ages because Kendrick always looks so young that I was about to be like eeewww but its not that bad.  She is 36, he is 43.  Good for them.  

How big did they think the pool of “People who could relatively easily afford a peloton (without or without payment plans) but didn’t” was? They all fricking bought it when we were on actual lockdown and were getting stimmys. After that huge backlog of orders was completed that was it. All these companies that…

“Pamela Anderson called it quits with her fourth husband this week”

The one about the women’s football league. The writer basically villainized their ex husband in the piece without providing anything to suggest that he was a bad husband, commenters took them to task for it, some of whom even pulled up past articles and interviews from the author where they stated how supportive their…

I..... Am I the only one having trouble picking out major differences here? Is this the type of minutia that makes people feel good about themselves these days? Man I am really out of the loop....

Really you don’t understand why someone that has spent most of their life at a non-union place, in an industry that has had notoriously low organizing; would be unfamiliar with Unions?
I don’t think you have a great deal of understanding people like your subject if that is the case.

Honestly, for someone that probably does dozens if not hundreds of interviews in any given year (especially during E3), I fail to see how 1 question from 3 years ago for a topic that is currently irrelevant at MS would make him bother to do research on the topic.

All of this hand wringing about what’s going to happen is silly. I guess there’s some weird expectation that Microsoft is going to somehow fire Kotick, purge upper management at Activision and Blizzard, “fix” all of the shit going down there, and install a brand new fresh-faced management team...two days after the…

Totally agree. I’ve been at my current company for 15 years. I’ve been taken care of by this company, so unionizing has never been part of any conversation. Outside of a basic understanding of unions, I wouldn’t feel comfortable commenting on the situation with Activision/Blizzard either. Sure, I’m not as high up in…

Why would he? He was asked about the topic in one brief question nearly three years ago in an E3 interview in Kotaku that went on for so long that it had to be spread across three different posts and the guy was probably in and out of interviews constantly during the show with all manner of publications.

It’s hard to believe that an executive at one of the largest tech companies in the world isn’t familiar with the basics of how collective bargaining works.

What’s worse is that when Republicans are in power they are never, ever pressed by media on either side to cooperate with Democrats. The media as a whole assumes that Democrats must get permission from Republicans to do anything, but Republicans are just allowed to do whatever they want with whatever power they can…

I don’t disagree, but there is something to be said about also being able to make tons of money off the #1 game franchise on your competition’s console. Play it “free” with game pass on our console, or give us $60 to play it on our competitors’ console. MS still has the upper-hand in that scenario.

I couldn’t tell for sure what the article’s stance was on low vaccination rate “blame”. It was mentioned right after/alongside pointing fingers at Biden for not doing more testing, sooner, so it seemed like a “guilt by association” attempt to me. If unintentional, then I withdraw the question.

Soooo….what’s your plan? Have White House interns hand deliver tests to people? Get the Army Corps employees to start manufacturing tests in-house? Arrest and force vaccinate the people who refuse to get the shot or forcibly remove them to remote locations?

What is this article even about?

I feel like the part of this article that addresses what’s in the actual title, Emma Stone saying he’s a liar, is.... missing.
