Some bloke put that sign up and went. “I don’t see anything wrong with this!”

The whole lot doesn’t seem bright at all. Then they basically drove through to Moscow like they were having a leisurely stroll and lost one truck. Russia looks so pathetic right now.

I’d be shocked if this was true. I would think that would be the first FSB tactic that they would’ve performed. It’s a classic one in movies as well. It’ll be absolutely insane if this is what stopped the coup.

I’m in Australia and have never boiled tap water before. Sometimes during major storms or flooding you get a boil water alert but these are usually advisory and monitoring shows that in most cases the water is still within legal limits. Of course though you should still boil the water if an alert does go out.

You’re correct. They wouldn’t have felt a thing. They would’ve been alive and then the next millisecond they were not. The pressure is insane at those depths.

We learnt from MH370 that there is a lot of noises in the ocean that are plausible for what you’re looking for but not what you’re actually looking for. The ocean is a noisy place and it’s getting much louder as well over time.

6’5” is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. He’s tall but not that tall. Also “president” lol. As if they include that with mugshots.

The Verge posted the actual memo that was released, you can find that below and the article here

Hi Snoos,

Starting last night, about a thousand subreddits have gone private. We do anticipate many of them will come back by Wednesday, as many have said as much. While we knew this was coming, it is a challenge nevertheless and we have our work cut out for us. A number of Snoos have been working around the clock, adapting to infrastructure strains, engaging with communities, and responding to the myriad of issues related to this blackout. Thank you, team.

We have not seen any significant revenue impact so far and we will continue to monitor.

There’s a lot of noise with this one. Among the noisiest we’ve seen. Please know that our teams are on it, and like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well. The most important things we can do right now are stay focused, adapt to challenges, and keep moving forward. We absolutely must ship what we said we would. The only long term solution is improving our product, and in the short term we have a few upcoming critical mod tool launches we need to nail.

While the two biggest third-party apps, Apollo and RIF, along with a couple others, have said they plan to shut down at the end of the month, we are still in conversation with some of the others. And as I mentioned in my post last week, we will exempt accessibility-focused apps and so far have agreements with RedReader and Dystopia.

I am sorry to say this, but please be mindful of wearing Reddit gear in public. Some folks are really upset, and we don’t want you to be the object of their frustrations.

Again, we’ll get through it. Thank you to all of you for helping us do so.

To me, this looks like it was absolutely destined for a public release/intended leak. The victimisation says it all with them crying that their employees are going to get attacked. This is a simply absurd statement.

Thanks Reddit for throwing extra wood on the fire. I was getting concerned that it wasn’t raging enough.

We need to have a running tally on the amount of VC money that has been burned on completely idiotic investments like these.

I think you could’ve told this to a six year old and they would’ve told you this is a stupid idea.

The salaries of the medical profession with the exception of highly specialised roles in the NHS are practically criminal. We had people bang pots and pans for them during COVID but the second they asked for a raise the only thing the hive mind could output was cricket noises and awkward coughs.

“I want my day mildly ruined, not completely ruined.” Well… we didn’t really live up to this one here.

It’s really good to see that they’ve listened to what the community have said they wanted and implemented them very well. The trailer is practically a montage of every major mod that we’ve seen in Cities Skylines since launch.

It’s going to be interesting to see what the modding community adds on top of that.

They seem to have a good track record with releasing good games, but they’re a still like any other publisher at heart. The rights and mental health of devs seem to be a second thought, but that’s pretty much any publisher these days.

However if you’re looking for quality, they seem to be of positive indication.

PC Gamer - Two reports paint a troubling picture of workplace abuses at acclaimed indie studios

Video Game Chronicles appeared to talk to the games creative director Pawel Sasko, who said this.

The developer says it’s still discussing the exact details of when and how base game owners will receive the new systems, but that its intention is to deploy them for free. So as well as adding a sizable chunk of new story to Night City, Phantom Liberty looks like it could finally do good on many of the promises the base game failed to live up to for many, before the game’s leaders move Stateside to establish the sequel dev team.

So really, who fucking knows. Apparently the entire game is being massively overhauled to the point of where it’s practically a new game, the fact it took three years to get to this point shows truly how underbaked the initial release was.

No Man’s Sky is a bit different since it was a tiny studio that was promising the mood. Sony also threw the studio director straight into the limelight even though he had effectively zero public relations experience. Then again, he doesn’t really seemed to have learnt his lesson, as he has big promises for his next game, maybe it’ll be a surprise, who knows. Cyberpunk 2077 on the other hand has no such excuse, they had a very well capable and trained marketing and PR team.

CDPR was probably everyone’s go to of a AAA dev that hadn’t yet been corrupted by money. Unfortunately with Cyberpunk 2077 we found out the hard way that yes, they had indeed been corrupted by said money. They single-handily managed to annihilate any sort of reputation they had gained over the many years of their studio, then managed to squander all of that in less than a few days. As the saying goes, slow to rise, quick to fall.

It feels like we’re close but miles away from what we were promised at launch. Their marketing was such an incredible barrel of lies I can’t believe that anyone is entrusting them with what they’re saying. I’m optimistic that it’ll be a good expansion pack, but I’m definitely going to wait for a bit before I purchase this one.

Over my dead body. I’d never trust a single thing from Meta. Their track record is absolutely horrific in every way possible.

It looks good in the marketing (it always does) but we should all remember that it’s Bethesda making this. Then again, I can’t even name a developer that I would say “hell yeah, this is gonna be awesome!” at this point. The very sad state of the industry.
