The problem with making things you make free, is that people as a whole are terribly selfish and lazy. They will take anything free and claim them as their own. Individually, tons of people will respect the wishes of original creators, but it only takes 1 single person who doesn’t care who will ruin it. The problem is the Internet has billions of 1’s. You can ask please don’t copy my freely available thing all you want, but it’ll never happen. There will always be those that will repost as thier own. From ideas to assets, nothing is sacred when it comes to the masses.

A good tactic when going against a shardblade.

Is that not just 2.4 trillion?

Me running to the bathroom after getting halfway through with the 3rd cup.

It’s religion. The truth doesn’t matter, only the practices and values they want you to adopt do.

I mean, it’s true they have a lot of games that use predatory systems designed to trick you into spending more money than you need to. As well as games that are designed purely on capitalizing on base feeling of satisfaction of big number go up. But I feel like this is akin to suing casinos for their games having odds in their favor.

How much of it is on the company, and how much on the player? Like where is the line? If a game is designed to be solely addictive with no other value or purpose, probably should not be acceptable, but how do you make that determination as a games value is different for every individual.

Almost impossible to make a blanket judgement on this, and any legal precedent set by this lawsuit will be troublesome no matter which outcome.

Can’t wait to hear about space X satellites falling out of a window.

Oh, of course. What was I thinking? That is the best page in the universe. I mean if it wasn’t, then it wouldn’t say so at the top of the page.

The only limit of course, being ourselves.

Ah yes, I sometimes reminice about all the good times I spent with a chicken on a raft.

Remember looking at the time counter to see when the first verse would repeat? Ah, good times.

I think we’re all confused by the question.

TikTok just starts showing a lot of Bill Cosby shorts for some reason.

Pretty similar to what’s going on with Twitter right now.

Let’s be fair here. While that is the point of the Scott and Ramona story, the movie didn’t really put a lot of effort into portraying that. The comics went a little more deeply into that dynamic and fleshing out the relationship, it was still pretty much the background against the character personality showcasing, and over the top dramatic fights. The movie really did nail the vibe and the characters but the whole “I think I learned something” and the end of the movie really downplays the “lesson” of the whole plot. So much so that I don’t think Scott himself even fully understood the actual lesson he just learned. Just that what he was doing was wrong, and needed to change, but not why and what exactly it was he needed to change.

Great movie for sure, even better comic series, but a deep complex plot it isn’t.

In the end, nothing. I had a good solid 9 months of a job I loved, with decent enough pay. But then tanks to corporate execs laid off the entire IT team and outsourced it to a staffing company and reduced the size of the team from 100+ to about 8.

I’m still there because I still need the pay, but now it’s just like every other garbage corporate job out there. Miserable and soul sucking.

Ah it was easy enough to get the iron key unlocked during post, as those HP servers take forever to boot, problem was the bios couldn’t recognize the USB. Whatever firmware is on it that does the security confused the system, and while it saw the drive, it didn’t know what it was and wouldn’t boot from it. In both uefi mode, and in legacy bios mode

One thing I can tell you, it’s that you can’t use them as bootable drives to install an OS from. And if you try to pass the USB connection from an ESXi host to a VM on it, it won’t work.

Aside from that, they’re really annoying to work with.

Stuck huh? So FFXVI doesnt count?

The last 20 years spent on FFXIV doesn’t count?

Dragon Quest, doesn’t count?

SaGa Emerald Beyond doesn’t count?

Foamstars… Well arguable if it counts.

Point is, they are not stuck. It is far from the only thing they are making. They just have created an amazing world with FFVII with great lore, great characters, and an amazing story. Multiple games taking place in that world is not that crazy of an idea, nor is it uncommon in the RPG genre. Some of the games sucked, the remakes are awesome. It’s grown beyond a single game at this point, it’s a series. Making more games in a series, does not make a company stuck, especially when they are still release games in other series.

At my company, we just have a standardized remote management suffix that we just throw at the end of the hostname, so we don’t actually track the urls. For example the server is named frosty, the url would be frostysuffix.

Then we track our servers with either an outdated access database that nobody updates, my locally saved personal Excel sheet, or by logging into one of the 4 different health checking applications that each monitor a piece of the infrastructure. (This part actually really sucks and I hate it.)

Honestly surprised that Tesla allowed him to modify his car without charging him a $30,000 fine or something.
