I mean, both are kinda required?

I’m reminded of when I was a CS grad student and I was grading finals with a professor and the other course assistants. The papers were anonymized, but hand-written and so one of the other assistants looks at the elegant writing on his and goes “Man, you can really tell that this one was written by a girl.”

Minority gaffers & key grips, and a diversity internship. Truly, the bar has been set high.

As a person who has worked on a large-scale cloud compute service for the last couple of years: I know buzzwords are scary, but “The Cloud” really just means “Someone Else’s Computer”. Games have been running on Someone Else’s Computer since the mainframe days. The data required to make games has been crunched on…

As the wiki article mentions this is was an entire thing in Sweden with “Turk hits”, most of which were in arabic because racism. Since video over the internet wasn’t really a thing yet they were generally flash animations with the misheard lyrics as subtitles. The first one made and the first instance of quote-unquote…

Their position seems to basically be “we’re not racists, we just wanted to see how close we could get to using the N-word in our team name because we thought that would be funny.” Even if that’s true, which I’m not exactly willing to grant, the disconnect is that using a racial slur because you think acting like a…

I can see the appeal but there’s just not that much meat on Mickey, I doubt they’d get more than a dozen burgers out of him. I’m also not sure how much of a premium you can really put on Thumper Stew or their other C-listers. Seems short-term.

It is called Norwegia ... in Latin. Hence Norwegians.

No streaming service carries it here in the EU — including the soon to be ex-EU — that I can tell. You can buy it digitally on Amazon.

One anecdote that I saw in the last day is that Reiner hosted the Director’s Guild of America awards ceremony for years, but he had a last minute health issue in 2009 and Jon Cryer had to sub for him. Cue:

Fun fact: Johan Renck used to go by the nom de guerre “Stakka Bo” and was responsible for a string of eurodance hits in the early 90s. Most notably 1993 earworm Here We Go Again:

Even if they both scratch the same logistics puzzle itch they feel quite different when you play them.

As seen in David Cronenberg’s Downsizing.

It’s Sunday, so he’s probably playing croquet with the Eels.

Yeah, I very much agree that you don’t need an Aeron or Leap or other very high end option — although they are both very good buttrests, I had an Aeron at work for years — but if you’ve got gaming as a hobby and spend hours seated in front of a PC then a comfortable chair should really be something you want to spend…

It’s really hard to tell, especially when a very vocal contingent of, uh, fans? — not sure they really count as that — literally believe that Paradox are a shadowy cabal secretly conspiring to hold features back from their releases. Obviously theirs are very simple games to make, so surely the devs spend most of their…

His music is so blandly inoffensive that some people are downright offended.

It’s just like drawing The Tick, really

Phew, I’ve been a mild Peter Gabriel fan ever since getting So on cassette in the early 90s — I was not one of the cool kids — and I thought he seemed about as nice as a man who occasionally wore a pustulent testicle suit could be. You had me afraid I’d missed some sad, dark secret.

Wait, what did Peter Gabriel do? He cheated on his wife in the 80s, Kiss That Frog is pretty bad and he was once arrested as a member of the Baader-Meinhof Gang, but I’d like to think that all the volunteer work for Amnesty and helping found Witness and so on made up for it.
