More access and easier access to the negative elements of society that prey on children with bad home lives. Prior to the internet, they had to find you on the streets and recruit you. Now they just need good SEO.

Most of the teams I have worked on for the last decade have been spread across multiple offices which lead to going into a small office for a dozen people to be on different teleconferences in large open areas disrupting everyone. We starte

I'm a huge gamer across a few platforms and I wish this was consistent across all platforms, launchers, and companies. I have a fast inner city fiber connection as well and a Sea of Thieves download from Gamepass recently took multiple

The Switch is an excellent piece of hardware. Nintendo knocked it out of the park so far it's only just starting to see competition at the end of it's lifecycle.

I also have a preference for more linear RPG's that tell a great story over big open worlds. The time and investment in a 100 hour open world RPG is too much for my FOMO/ADHD addled mind to handle. I can't commit long enough

And even in a subgroup like trucks, try buying a basic stripped down pickup like you could 15-20 years ago. Just two doors and an 8 foot bed, a truck... they don't make them anymore. Instead you get one of these giant penis extensions

Wholeheartedly agree, my knock isn't on the servers and staff it's on these "small business owners" who require public charity to run their business and pay their employees.

Absolutely, the demand for 7 to 9 figure a year jobs that are contingent upon building a functional auditing and compliance org and not openly breaking law would completely evaporate. I mean we have no lawyer or doctors for the same reason.

I love how sitting and having a cup of coffee after a meal costing $100's is labeled as entitlement.

There is 100% a single name and that's the CEO. If CEO's were actually held liable, they would do a lot more to ensure they didn't end up in jail.

I'm guessing it's access to that IMDB database of metadata. Anyone else would need to create that or license it which if I was Amazon I would either not sell or charge out the nose for.

So much this, Hulu might be one of the worst burying the "Continue Watching" section 3 pages down. They all just want to slam you with what they want you to watch but make it intentionally difficult to just pick up the last thing

I like the way Reddit structured that EULA tho. If you make apps to improve and/or give back to reddit or for academic research, you are good. If you are scrapping their data and exploiting their user base to train your AI, fork up for

Who buys luxury electric cars? The same liberal elite that he regularly mocks and who he has alienated on the platform he bought to un-woke. I don't think his new climate change denier fans are all that into electric cars.

I mean bullying your customer's and advertisers is a business plan I just question it's success. I don't know that threatening Microsoft with a lawsuit is going to get them quaking in their boots. It's kind of their side

Not research and development in the traditional sense which was tied to the creation of a new product, drug, etc. It was intended to offset the cost and risk of invention. I would not describe what most software engineers do as invention.

My last startup CEO basically got called out for exactly this on Glassdoor... - Forced a team to pull in their estimate by a month - Verbally berated the team when they missed the estimate he forced them to set. ...surprisingly enough the e

He had a job running the commissary but even that only filled so much time. He would have loved anything that allowed him to learn a skill he could have used on release.

Anecdotally, my brother in law was in US prison (federal) and we would send him books all the time and he would read them and trade them around for other books. It's hard to contextualize how much nothing they have to do in prison. Rea

We pay for Premium as well and I started using music because "Hey it's included." It quickly became my main platform mostly because it stays out of the way and plays music.

I'm not sure if Metaverse was a bad idea so much as selling out everything else to go full steam on Metaverse was a bad idea. It felt like they sold out their core user base and destroyed their existing platforms to get there. They wer

I think the Dominoes have been falling for a while. I mostly quit the bird in November. I pop over once or twice a week these days to see what's happening and the degradation of content is very apparent. It may be because of departures

I haven't seen this brand since I was a kid. It was every plastic container in our house. Their differentiator used to be quality. We still use some of those Tupperware containers 50 years later as opposed to the modern versions that e
