So, par for the course for Bethesda then?

Oh, I’m sorry… I might be too quiet.

Why start making good decisions now?

It’s the same threat as a 5 year old threatening to hold their breath until they die if they don’t get their way.

These are gonna be some well-adjusted, loved babies raised by only the most responsible and financially capable parents.

Look… There are so many good people out of work…

Just take these jobs to keep them from the kind of people they want, collect the paycheck, and then intentionally sabotage them from within. I don’t think ICE is anywhere near discerning or competent enough to figure it out.

Let’s hook it up to righteously trained AI and let them try to talk it out of guillotining them. If they manage it they just get to lose all their money instead of their head.

This.

They knew. It’s still a win for them. After 4 months anyone who’s not found new work will HAPPILY take a 30% pay cut. This is an across the board attack on tech worker salaries.

Finally! Yes!

Now get everyone else on board please! The sooner the US gets decoupled the sooner the rest of us can get back some kind of quality of life.

…And the cost of that convenience is now $2000 and a bunch of spyware.

Are you sure? Because based on the internet armchair developers I see around, open source developers are an inexhaustible source of unending miracles that work for free and are fueled by incoherent, conflicting, entitled demands from 14 year olds.

Now… I don’t like to brag…

“We’re done editing the files? Good. No need to stall any longer.”

Nice troll bait.

No, I know EXACTLY what I’m talking about. Google’s old results were based on click-through determining which results were best. Now that the quality of the average user is lower, so is the quality of the average click-through result.

That’s as much response as you’re going to get though. You responded in bad faith, so now you’re going to talk to yourself if you choose to respond.

There is more to it than that… 20 years ago most of the people on the internet were likely similar to you, so most of their desired results were similar to yours.

Now people on the internet since the early 2000 are a minority compared to the “democratized” flood of users who joined in the mobile crapplication phase and started skewing search results towards simpler, less useful results.

SEO and ads didn’t help, but the whole ecosystem broke the model.

It’s so nice that SOMEONE is trying to make good use of great technology and isn’t actively trying to engineer microSD cards out of existence.
