Man, I don’t know… the last few decades have shown humans to be surprisingly easy to “hack”

because IT sector wouldn’t have all it’s eggs in one basket that might break if one guy leaves or dies.

Whooooooooboy, that has not been my experience in tech!

Daughter, I think?

This myth is probably prevalent because corporations have spent the last 40 years squeezing every cheat and every advantage they can out of the system — to the point where anything that even smells like a “good gesture” is rightfully met with suspicion and contempt from the people they’ve been so blissfully exploring.

It’s a marketing thing. Stuff like this creates the illusion that they’re good corporate citizens.

Of course, they could donate a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percent of their own profits and make a much bigger impact, but that would set a bad precedent! Giving away your money is only for the working class!

It’s entirely possible these aren’t real players, but are actually some kind of automated testing scripts or service monitors that someone forgot (or just never cared) to turn off before getting sacked, running on a forgotten QA box somewhere deep in the bowels of Sony.

To be fair, that is a pretty funny prank.

“Oh, you wanted comedy? Here, have this harrowing tale about genocide and the great depths of human suffering instead!”

Why has it never occurred to me to cook an avocado? That sounds fantastic.

I don’t think Midgley really did anything to increase the amount of carbon in the atmosphere — just the amount of lead and CFCs.

Environmental historian J. R. McNeill opined that Midgley “had more adverse impact on the atmosphere than any other single organism in Earth’s history”

Ouch.

At least horse armor was good for the memes. This is so bland no one even cares to meme about it.

TBH, I really wish he would’ve just shut up and let the gameplay breathe for a while. They started the showcase explaining how this game isn’t going to hold your hand, but then spent the next fifteen minutes over-explaining every little detail, lol

I’ve been getting a lot of ads for Ground News lately in other media that I consume, to the point where it makes me think most of their revenue is going right back into marketing.

I would not be surprised at all if they’ve tossed some money at the mods here for the purpose of boosting their signal even further.

No Dark Souls?

Shame! Shame!
