Reddit is a frivolous time waste, video game backlash is a frivolous time waste. A game engine is fundamentally a year of learning investment on the side of the game dev before employment. For a business a game represents half a decade or

Yeah Northern Virginia trapped themselves with that thinking. They can't stop building Datacenters, less they lose tens of thousands of jobs in the region. And the Datacenters know this, that they can beat concessions out of politici

That's some magical thinking, thinking that you don't need hardware people because you wrote some software. All the same gear is still there, its control functions are just ceded to Amazon panels. And integrated to the point of e

Yeah, Stanfield doesn't even guarantee consistency like NMS does. Already a couple screen shots around with different encampments for different players on the same terrain/landing site. SF is also limited to short distance travel

Money is moving without the politics of Washington being involved, favors are being "gifted" to orgs for access to novel tech. If that can't get power brokers in Washington to force some change, nothing will.

This is probably more of a case of Washington insiders realizing they were passing chances at corruption. Essentially Skunkworks style projects of other countries' left out of their hands for trading favors over access, and/in ins
