Eh, you’re right, but also I think Nintendo is usually kinda in their own category. We see xbox/ps comparisons all the time, but rarely nintendo, since it isn’t really a drop-in comparison. I think this is a similar case – the switch outsells everything strictly for “handhelds”, but it isn’t really solving generalized handheld gaming.

Wait you don’t straddle your desktop tower?

EndeavorOS is what you want, fits the same niche but without being fucking Manjaro. :-)

Dhalgren by Samuel Delany

(Close race with House of Leaves, but ultimately House of Leaves was telling a specific story, whereas Dhalgren is a semi-incoherent drug trip. Loved both books, though.)

Believe it or not, straight to jail.

Sucks that AstroBot isn’t couch coop. LBP series has been great with my kid. I wonder if this forebodes doom for Sackboy as well.

Better vehicle, same people. 🤷🙂

Excuse me sir I think you dropped your monocle. (╭ರ_•́)

As an engr manager, I’ve often seen disparity as a result of being hired during good years vs bad years for the company. Or when someone gets a better offer to leave, the company may change their pay but no one else’s. Or hiring externally vs a transfer from another internal team. Or whether the team is coding for frontend web vs dev tools, even if using the same language. Or if female.

It’s always a challenge for one person to fix – with HR, with the department head, with yearly budget. And sometimes fixing one disparity means not having the sway to fix another as well.

Which is to say – pay transparency and unions are good for everyone. And if the company can’t afford to treat the employees equitably, then the company shouldn’t exist. (Or it should reduce its avocado toast budget.)

Well now there’s an apt metaphor… :-P

Objectively, it sounds like it’s an innocent tradition and a healthy charity.

Subjectively, it’s tone-deaf af, when the rule-makers perform superstition for such a massive world-changing problem. Basically “thoughts and prayers.”

Like the G in “gigantic”.

If you don’t laugh, you didn’t get it, but if you ONLY laugh, you didn’t get it.

Mental health is a medical issue. Ergo any vacation is medical.
