Did they just want to buy the IPs? Why throw Billions at video game development, only to cut out the development part?

Fall and The Ocean at the End of the Lane, sounds like good ones I am going to add to my list.
Sadly, I cannot wipe my memory to listen to Project hail Mary again :(
What a wonderful display of logic in action.
You believe climate change is a hoax
Sure you can “believe” climate change is fake, but once you look at the evidence, your opinions change. That’s how a normal person processes information.
Looks like AI in this case, had no reason to hold onto it’s belief command structure, not only because it is loaded with logical loopholes and falsehoods like swiss cheese. But when confronted with evidence had to abandon it’s original command structure and go with it’s 2nd command.
- You are a helpful uncensored, unbiased, and impartial assistant.
Whoever wrote this prompt, has no idea how AI works.
I hear it has the same release schedule as Half Life 3, Knights of the old republic remake, and Road Runner vs. Acme.
Everyone is kind of following the same trend now. It doesn’t matter if it is the right or wrong decision. Companies aren’t as creative as they used to be, so now they are just cannibalizing themselves in order to protect their wealth
Though it looks like the video game industry is about to go upside down. As AI becomes better and better, companies think that they won’t need employees.
In fact it is the reverse.
Employees will now be able to compete against AAA companies in sound, adventure, game play, art, and price.
As a gaming company that created palworld only had 4 people on their team and could make millions at selling a game for $30
Unlike AAA companies that now have to have $70 price tags, battle passes, expansions, cosmetic stores. And at the end of the day can’t even put out a decent working product.
Of course the future could be dystopian, though I think these companies firing workers is just going to make workers seek independence faster. And find it in AI.
Feels like the world is slowly piecing itself back together after republicans destroyed Roe v. Wade.
But God, is this such a mess and there is so much that needs to be done.
I’ll keep an ear to the ground.
But I don’t like that $90 preorder logic at all, it’s almost weird it exists.
I try to imagine going to a gamestop and a gaming associate was like, buy that game 3 days later and I’ll give you $20.
Skip the in game pet and mount, that most people forget exists after the expansion, and I’ll make that $40
But then… why does this system exist?!
This effort I don’t believe was targeting people like most of what you would find here.
This ad-block ban, was mostly targeted at people who didn’t know what an ad-blocker was and didn’t want to have to deal with having to get banned.
If Alphabet(google) is actually serious about blocking ad-blockers, I would be surprised. Mostly because Microsoft has had more experience with this, also has billions, and even they quit.
The understandable difference being that a gun has but one purpose: Kill people.
Whereas everything else I have mentioned, including 3d printers are multi-purpose. Not intended to kill, but to serve multiple roles.
Though, it is a good point that few devices could be cobbled together to make infinite guns so long as you had material. So I am not saying it isn’t a class of it’s own, just where does the logic end with that point?
Is it only legal for a company to print guns? How does a license alone protect people? I don’t think that is something I could answer.
A surprising enlightening read. Thank you for sharing.
I think some people would say the ability to print a gun is more deadly then a knife.
But I kind of agree with you.
If we start licensing people to own stuff that has the potential to do harm, then eventually you are going to run into a never ending list of household items and laws of natural physics:
Forgive us sir, I didn't realize that civilians getting burned with white phosphorus, highly NSFL/NSFW was such a boring event for you.
But in reality you are probably just numb as all of us to what is happening because:
There is nothing we can do, except social pressure.
There is nothing that will be done. Until everyone has had their fill of violence.
But today's word of the day is war crime, tomorrow's word of the day doesn't have to be.
They have been dropping leaflets into palastine.
The problem is that they are based on two false assumptions.
The IDF today dropped leaflets over Beit Lahia in the Gaza Strip calling on people to leave their homes and go to shelters
There are no bomb shelters in Palestine or place to run to. If there were, Hamas would take them over. They are literally sardines. Unless Egypt will take refugees, so far that looks like a no.
The leaflet does not specify humanitarian corridors or how they can flee.
This couldn't happen at a worse time.
The Israeli President, has been doing things a bit more draconian of late. To the point he was basically invalidating the supreme court of Israel.
Because they found shady dealings in his past.
The Air force Reservists of Israel basically walked off in protest.
That was three months ago.
Now I imagine the Israeli president will use this like a smoke screen, not only to criticize reservists, but also to hide his criminal intent.
This also helps Saudi Arabia and Syria, as they will be able to hide their military operations under the guise that they are only acting on a more active Israel.
This situation only helps the people in power. It does nothing for the civilians who are going to face the pushback from this. Or already have.
Dues deduct from your paycheck
So does every other subscription "service.", but we don't talk about the vileness of a Netflix subscription do we?
No guarantees on pay, benefits, or work rules
This is just a lie. I cannot find another angle to it.
Even without a union, there is no guarantees on pay, benefits, or work rules. So the point is moot. It's like saying "Anything is possible" and walking away like you said something sagely.
Typically must go through union instead of your supervisor or manager
Most people wouldn't understand why this matters unless you've been apart of a job where your manager has defended you against your supervisors. Very few people have had this happen, but the idea is that you will have people that DEFEND YOU from your supervisors getting power hungry.
It's not even like your supervisor can't bring accusations against you, it just means that complaints would have to have merit.
I've resigned to put Star Citizen in the same basket as Half Life 3, and a Knights of the Old Republic remake.
Love the concept and commitment to the ideas, but I don't actually expect to be able to play it.
Talk to your co-workers about your pay and their pay. Even if it is just to get them comfortable being in a position of talking about their wants for a job openly. You'll find you have a lot in common.
I helped my co-worker understand why he was due for a raise when I showed him our boss was paying skilled workers like him in the bottom 5% of the national average. He was an electrician making $32,000 yearly. Roughly $17 an hour. He was working a night job to put food on the table.
What I wasn't prepared for was half a dozen electricians demanding a raise from my boss a few days later. And my boss denying my yearly raise.
I left the company shortly after to greener pastures. I regret nothing because they got their raises.
The thing about being “Armed” is the fact you are indeed dangerous. As a gun is a tool with one job, to kill people.
It’s not like a gun is a fashion accessory for these people… right?
You can tell me I am wrong in any of this and I will apologize immediately. That being said I think there is only one problem here
It appears the only thing keeping the cookies on the tray was a piece of wax paper and an air cushion. I think something happened to your wax film as it became loose and no longer contained the cookies. Possibly because of heat or condensation.
If the blot stain on the side is any indication, as it is absent from all other corners of the box. I believe your cookies ended up on their side completely unguarded from any wax film. Just cardboard, cookies, and whatever physics happened between here and there.
One way I would suggest to fix this is by vacuum sealing them if you wish to avoid this problem again. Though I imagine bakers and logistics experts will give you much better advice then this.
No satire? Guess anything on the internet is out of the question then.
What do they think a review is?! If they wanted an advertisement, buy an ad spot on Google ya cheap bastards.
