I just refuse to support Ubisoft. I don’t like their practices, or most of their games. I don’t feel I’m missing much by skipping whatever they make. Hopefully they go out of business and a better company can pick up their IPs and make good games, for a decent price, without crazy micro-transactions, 30 different special packs, and a required secondary launcher

It’s possible to acknowledge that yes but no they don’t make good games, just half-assed rehashed entries in the same 4 tired series they’ve been pumping games out of for decades

I would say glass shatters but would worry about home alarm systems freaking out or just pavloving the kid to not react appropriately to the sound of glass shattering lol

So what, we’re supposed to watch and support poor quality media in the hopes that eventually a piece gold shows up in the turd pile?

No, if they make good content people pay for it, if they don’t make good content then they can’t whine.

My work had something like this to detect drug usage on premises for a while (it was and is a problem still) and it costed like 30k capital and 2-3 opex a year. We had it for like a year and only took it out because there were too many false flags and security didn’t and doesn’t have the staff to be chasing down every alert anyway.

It was neat that on paper it was able to detect different drugs, heroin, weed, meth all flagged different alerts with 2 of those contacting police when detected. Unfortunately it was only like 70% accurate and we didn’t/don’t have enough security staff to use it properly so it’s gone now.

Go after the owners of the company, stop letting people hide behind these companies they can start with $100 and 20 minutes online when they commit crimes

It’s important to remember that the lore books are intended to be tinged as propaganda by the narrator. Of course the imperium will say it’s angels of death are semi-gods of the battlefield, but in reality armor only stops so much and a 7ft tall slab muscle walking tank is impressive, but a carnifex is still gonna carry its weight on the field as well and fuck up some astartes

I agree but that doesn’t change the fact that intel is collapsing. I don’t think we need to artificially prop up failing companies either, if they are needed and they fail then nationalize their assets and let a closely monitored government entity run the fabs

Probably plan on intel on continuing to implode over the next few years and there not being a competitor lol

Investing in schools is great, love that, but it will take years if not decades to make an impact on the workforce

There are few things more fun than launching the acetylene tanks at everything and everyone at every opportunity

Plenty of amazing small studios make great games for a budget of a couple packs of mtn dew and some cheese whiz crackers

The finals isn’t even a looter shooter though, it’s an arena shooter.

The finals is pretty damn fun though I will say.

I’ll also say I wanted marathon to work, any good competition to tarkov is welcome because I’m not fucking supporting Nikita and his idiotic practices anymore. He got EOD money from me in 2016/17, hope he made good use of it

Because we don’t like pedos… no matter how long it’s been since they’re abuses came to light

You think American car insurance is efficient and/or effective? Something tells me you’ve never had to use it then lol

Fishing ponds is a nice addition, always looking for ways to feed these hungry peasants. They want so much food!!!

If only our vendors made Linux versions of their systems and regulators would approve them or the OS but no, my regulators only allow windows and approved software that they verify the hashes of every few months for changes

If you’re the parent then the child is your property and responsibility, if you break it by accident you can make another. If someone else breaks your kid then they owe you a kid, but you don’t want someone else’s kid, so now you’re in a troublesome situation

It’s a term rooted in geo-political alliances and power standings, not economic status

Yes but that’s far less impactful of a breach than “we’ve actively surveilled and recorded all movements and actions of our customers for decade, stored it all haphazardly, and now someone else got it without paying for it like we normally arrange”
