I see OP in their comment history uses “tyres” so they’re probably not from the US.

C-Walking has been a prominent fad in the US, more so in the early 2000s than recently, but most people are familiar with it.

I don’t understand the context of this post, but there’s not much here of note if you grew up in the US and made it past late teenager.

At this point, Snoop is inevitable.

Now make it so you have to beat e1m1 for the alarm to turn off.

It’s bullshit all the way down.

Lol uh I mean I don’t think the author* is giving the generally normal people just working their job enough credit. In my anecdotal experience, the growth mindset stuff is just an excuse to say certain things at meetings, or make certain decisions, nobody is extremely bought in or anything.

In fact, I knew some folks that left Microsoft because of the growth mindset changes for more “old school” places like Boeing.

Generally speaking I think all these companies have some kind of cultish exterior, I can say this about Google, Apple, Amazon and Facebook for sure. If you’re ever let inside the walls though, it’s mostly regular people trying to live their lives.

You’re right, because a lot of it was “game not horny” and I don’t have time for incel garbage

This dude used to point out legit game quality issues, but I’m not sold on “the game isn’t horny anymore”. I dont really give a shit about that.

That and the RE4 remaster was genuinely good. Starting to feel like an edge lord.

Nvidia does the same shit for GPU drivers, it’s obnoxious

To add some more context. Microsoft (and a lot of tech companies) have a relatively big presence in Israel, and that includes a lot of Israeli employees and acquired business.

Nice comic.

Used to have a copy of Wild Arms on the PSX, and there was a scratch so deep that stopped progressing past Cecilia’s intro, but man we tried.

I’m pretty fucking sure it doesn’t work like that outside of your black and white interpretation.

I’m not saying it doesn’t happen, I’m saying a lot of people find themselves in that (bad) situation either outside their control, or they can be manipulated, coerced, pressured, or hell use your imagination.

To be clear, it’s definitely not always “oh so-and-so was so obsessed with climbing the ladder that they became the bosses bitch, Oooo.” Thats a kindergarden take and, IMO, helps empower people at the top hoarding all the wealth.

I’m gonna assume you don’t know any better. Not saying there aren’t bad or stupid middle managers, but usually the middle manager is the person who got shoved into a “management” position they probably didn’t want, and all they really get to do is take all the heat when decisions they didn’t make blow up in their face. It also usually comes with false promises of raises but upper management never really intends on giving it.

It’s like, top level squeezing the bottom out 101.

And Apple will finally sell the iPhone starting with 256GB

Waste of time?

Yet another example of companies making irresponsible anti consumer choices. You should have to pay the piper if you want to start dancing to this tune. That or you should be forced to open source your proprietary works.

It must be exhausting, being mad about shit that doesn’t affect you all the time.

God damn, every time with this.

Ghost of Tsushima was amazing, I’m looking forward to the sequel.

I understand your take and mostly agree with you. I just want to emphasize I’m not trying to call anyone a dummy or anything, just that it’s OK to like what you like.

If companies aren’t going to cater to you, yeah that’s annoying in most scenarios.

Java when you don’t put in a try catch, vs Template<typename T> in Cpp

If you ordered a cookie and didn’t get what you want, that sucks and is indeed frustrating.

However I don’t know what that has to do with anyone else. If someone wants to eat an almost raw cookie, or a too soft cookie or whatever, I don’t think that should bother you.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but Python, like most languages, can be as complex as you make it.

Context is king, so I don’t think this is universal. Decent list though.
