- Comment on Blizzard's Overwatch Team Just Unionized: 'What I Want To Protect Most Here Is The People' 4 days ago:
Yeah, the team has been in a good bargaining position because the higher-ups are seeing OW players switching to Marvel Rivals in droves and realizing that they need to start listening to people who actually know what they’re talking about. Props to the team for sensing this is a good time to gain some ground and unionize

My favorite part of watching WWE is the way their main commentator says “WWE”. You can tell he savors every syllable of it
- Comment on Elon Musk’s Grok AI Has a Problem: It’s Too Accurate for Conservatives 1 week ago:
I get it but maybe something different like “Musk-led Tesla” would achieve what you said while also making it clear he plays no creative role in the companies (which he very much wants, just look up reports of him sitting in on engineering meetings making stupid proposals)
- Comment on Elon Musk’s Grok AI Has a Problem: It’s Too Accurate for Conservatives 1 week ago:
Agreed but we should say something different like “Musk-led Tesla”
- Comment on Elon Musk’s Grok AI Has a Problem: It’s Too Accurate for Conservatives 1 week ago:
Can we agree to stop saying “Musk’s Grok”, “Musk’s Tesla”, etc.? It only plays into his desire to be viewed as a genius instead of just a guy with blood diamond money. He’s never created anything.
- Comment on I can't pay rent because devs just don't care 1 week ago:
You tend to see nonsensical, disjointed product UX and usability decisions a lot more in bigger, highly hierarchical organisations, with big teams, highly specialised, siloed ICs several levels removed from their end users by layers and layers of middle management fat.
Yep, and those layers and layers of middle management will never walk away from a UI/UX review saying “yeah, looks good to me!” because that wouldn’t justify their existence, so they feel compelled to say something even when there’s zero real issues, which is how you end up with inane bullshit

- Comment on I can't pay rent because devs just don't care 2 weeks ago:
Author did kinda reference this with the ✨Development Velocity✨ part, but the truth is managers and businesspeople* are the ones that just don’t care. Well, not about users at least. Managers just care about promotions and maintaining the upper hand in office politics, and businesspeople just care about money.
If devs were given the proper amount of time to implement things, they wouldn’t be adding GBs of NPM packages from which only one function is used.
If devs were given any power in the decision-making process, the “17 tracking scripts you put on your websites which added 0.004 pence to your bottom line” would never be added

The Bay Area is probably the only thing keeping that company alive. Every stoplight you pull up to there has at least a couple Teslas
- Comment on Suspected 4chan Hack Could Expose Longtime, Anonymous Admins 3 weeks ago:
I feel like the result of this is gonna be a big ol nothingburger. There’s no way someone works as a mod/admin for the most controversial website on the internet and uses an email address that can be linked to their real identity, and doesn’t use a VPN/tor.
Pretty sensationalist article IMO. I mean, they act like the source code being leaked is newsworthy. Somebody with a month of coding experience could write that website in an afternoon.

Sorry if this has already been discussed but is anyone else worried that “Nicole’s” pictures are from the webcam on a compromised computer? They’re always from the same angle and she’s not really posing for most of them

Ah man, I miss that app. So good that my university tried to ban it.
But federation would be a weird choice for something that’s supposed to be limited to a small area. I guess if multiple people in one town wanted to run an instance…

- Comment on Marvel Rivals - Season 1 Trailer 4 months ago:
I get it, people have understandable reasons for why they personally wouldn’t want crossplay in competitive. All I’m asking for is the option to enable it. I’m on PC and almost all of my friends are on console so we always have to play casual. The wild swings in opponent skill level get really annoying sometimes. Solo queuing in this game is exceptionally awful because voice chat is disabled by default, which makes no sense for a game that requires teamwork
And yeah, the blanket live service hate gets pretty annoying. Like this is a great game with purely cosmetic microtransactions that can be easily ignored
- Comment on Marvel Rivals - Season 1 Trailer 4 months ago:
Ok new heroes, yeah, cool, but an option for crossplay in competitive would be even better 🙏 My competitive rank is low because I can’t party up with my friends and has absolutely nothing to do with my own skill ^trust me^
Also why is this post getting so many downvotes?
