They won’t even let us eat cake. None of those people know their history it seems.

TPB is basically immortal. Any instance taken down can be back up in minutes. It’s a game of whack-a-mole you can never win.

Or 40 cakes.

You ain’t seen nothing yet! Shelves aren’t empty… yet. As soon as that happens, watch it all crumbling down.

Very true, but still pleasantly surprised by this small RCC w. A small move, but one in the right direction at least.

These only exist to make the more advanced (and more expensive) models seem reasonable by comparison. It’s marketing, not product development.

Not to mention that studios like Larian have proven that it’s entirely possible to make a blockbuster game without teams of 400 heads, changing direction and leadership every few years and laying off the people who made the product in the first place. They really seethed at that one, so many salty comments lol.

That’s why they said they prefer a protracted war. As long as it’s going on without a clear winner, they can both supply Russia and keep selling their shit to the EU.

There will come a time they will have to choose, however.

The deeper implications of this are… frightening, to say the least.

Ah man I hate being just old enough to remember the stories about what the alternative is like. I suppose youth have the excuse of ignorance, but still.

Imagine if the CEO who laid you off was also your psychologist/therapist who you have to turn to. What in the actual fuck is wrong with these people.

People fall out of windows all the time, even if they have billions. Clearly, not all of them are aligned.

It also reduces the pool of available replacements because if the leadership keep getting killed, you end up with decidedly less volunteers for promotion.

And just like that, piracy seems to become a viable profession again.

Not gamedev but other software, going through the exact same thing (new, external CEO). Guess the axeman cometh for us all eventually.

I did, but long ago. Problem is when you’re taking ssri’s/snri’s, especially in large doses, mushrooms lose their effect. Taking psylocibin on these meds doesn’t do anything, you don’t even get visuals anymore, only a mild euphoria at best.

I’ve been depressed for three decades and nothing I’ve tried so far has worked, but I’ll be stone cold dead before they put fucking chips in my brain. /oldmanyellsatcloud.jpg

Low ball, rookie numbers! I say we go for 90%, including the added costs of re-hiring previous staff or training new ones.

Can’t we like, globally cut off any and all ties with the US and leave them to fester in their own hellhole? Hell, we’ll build the walls AND pay for them!

There’s always funds for more misery. But never any for alleviation. I’m tired boss.
