What will get a native Instagram app first, iPad or AVP?

No, it doesn’t

So the unbiased journalists they let demo the game this week didn’t like it, and now they’re hoping to muddy the waters by letting the players they gave access in November post about it. I’m not sure who the Nov group was, but I’m guessing it included people/non-professionals who are likely to be favorable to

So what’s going on here? Did Ubisoft make some weird black magic deal with the devil to squeeze extra performance out of older platforms? Probably not.

Microsoft was notorious for doing this with Xbox digital purchases. Through the 360 era, all digital purchases were made with Microsoft Points. They used to only sell point in 500 increments, but the conversion rate was $5 = 400 points.

Replacing Hayter was especially stupid considering:

So what you’re saying is purity tests get the politicians who their voters actually want?

No further information was available about the cancellation...

Milk Bar’s cakes are decent, but there’s not much to say about them beyond “sweet” and the textures are garbage. What really propelled Milk Bar was its crack pie. It’s super-sweet, Instagrammable cakes were a novelty at first, but now there are a million places that sell those at the same price point.

The loneliness of Carol’s self-imposed exile and her unwavering self-loathing offers a heightened representation of a sometimes-lonely queer existence

No, the end of the that gen was not going well for the 360 and Microsoft. Sony had ended up surpassing them in sales of the PS3. IIRC, MS was also letting the 360 languish, and it had no blockbuster releases for the last few years of its life.

If you’re talking about that patent where the guy stands up and shouts “McDonald’s!” to end the ad, that was a Sony patent (IIRC)

You have no idea how a VC (or PE) fund is structured. A VC fund like YC is a collection of external investors (called LPs) that pool their capital into a single fund entity. The LPs “commit” a set amount of capital, so that the total fund size is $X. The GP (the VC firm itself) makes up 1-2% of $X.

Do you think when a VC invests in a company, the partners are personally invested rather than the VC firm itself? It’s highly unlikely Sam was able to personally invest in any tech startup while he was heading YC due to conflicts.

The next will obviously be RE1. That installment was last remade in 2002, but it was still the fixed camera style gameplay.

Iger should not have returned to Disney. His second term is going to end up with the company in a lot worse of a position than when he returned. In retrospect, it’s going to make the success of the company during his original look like a fluke of his leadership, rather than due to his brilliant vision.

why why why why the fuck does G/O have this built into the UI of their sites?!

I’m really surprised season 2 is going to cover the second game. What’s their plan for season 3? There’s no way they’ll be ready for a third game anytime before 2026, and even then I can’t imagine they’d want season 3 and game 3 to drop around the same time.

If Episode X requires having watched anything beyond Episodes I-IX, they might as well just kill off the franchise now
