With that designation/waiver they needed, are these autonomous drones or not? It somewhat kills the efficiency if it’s still manually piloted. It is an interesting premise, basically create an addition tier of warehouse to drive around and load drones. 

There is also the “it’s complicated” part for the edibles. Like you don’t want to eat tomato greens, potato greens are toxic but if the stems are dried then cooked it is a dish you can find in some parts of Japan... 

Didn’t this happen to one of the original top gear guys? The context was that he charged his car and left it on the charger went on a trip for a month or two but didn’t realize the car battery doesn’t charge from the wall but rather from the main battery while the car is in operation.

I know the push for these is because owners don’t like having to pay workers, but these retrofit machines are often only performing single tasks. Flippy 1, it can flip burgers, do visual temp inspections (that may be an improvement over a meatbag worker), and clean the grill but it can’t put food on it, cheese, or…

It’s the part of how they are planning on making all of these things work, you’re not buying anything, you are leasing them and paying subscriptions.

I was taking that into consideration but as there are only 24 hours in a day, how much would a family use on console storage?

Yes, for games made pre-2000'ish. Once DRM got in the mix, short of breaking the law to bypass it, if a company sunsets support and includes DRM servers in it, that game is toast.

I remember, this was decades ago, there was a PC game I played where it had a gamebreaking bug at the final moment of the game and patching wasn’t a thing yet. So, unless you went to the website (this was also back when much of the world was on dialup if they had net at all) and download it. Otherwise you could never…

Digital purchases are already that, and Bruce Willis shined light on it inadvertently over a decade ago when he said he was going to will his itunes collection to his daughter and they said “Lol, no”.

I don’t know if there will be for major publishers, beyond the collectables market. With the large scale patching being normal practice, needing to get past physical space limits on discs, etc. I am not sure if they are going to be able to justify. Arguably, those discs even are just another form of knickknack in this…

My guess is because they are adding actual spirit in rather than using aromatized wine and other tricks places use to serve cocktails without a hard liquor license. To the end consumer, they probably don’t care too much but from people making press releases. 

Now that I think about it... it is a surprise they got rid of those items since they are in the “tater-tot” category where it doesn’t require potatoes to be intentionally cut for it but rather can be made from the scraps of the curly fries and other items. Unless they found someone who would give them a more…

On the surface it doesn’t, but when (this depends on the tools you’re using) you approach it from the development pipeline the final script isn’t always needed. Take a quest, for example, I know it’s going to have you talk to the NPC, accept the quest, do the thing, come back and claim the reward. I can build the…

You could pistol whip Matteo as much as you want without issue. I would say that is GOTY on it’s own. 

You’re not hiring pros for scratch lines, like I mentioned before it’s usually the person working on the part where the line might be played. For example, I am building a quest in the tool and need a narrative drop, I create the scratch file for it using proper naming and get it checked into perforce. Then when audio…

Provided you are able to count that towards your workday, allowing you to bail early, it could be “fair”. Highly unlikely that will actually happen and the tech was already there, I have a lot of coworkers who will take meetings while driving in/home/at home so they can be there to pick up/drop off their kids at…

Don’t forget, they were also just raising prices because they could... in most states. In CA you saw some bailing because the state said they had to justify large jumps and they couldn’t back it up. 

Actually, yes. You are doing work so it could be claimed as worker’s comp. Granted OSHA isn’t part of that discussion beyond “You shouldn’t be on calls while driving”. 

Judging by the message, there is a shortage of parts, having to take in cars they can’t service and just warehouse them is something they don’t want to do and would be a form of the system being unable to process them in a timely manner.

Which is what I was countering, I also work in game dev (on a few RPGs as well) and the talent usually don’t make that much to the point that if I had them do 10 games worth of lines, it wouldn’t be anywhere near a million (and this is using union workers).
