I despise modern country music and generally consider outlaw country and anything not Nashville Establishment to be the real shit.

The problem is I actually see Trump winning by breaking every system in the process and the ramifications will be, well, bad

I would argue the flat management makes it hard for Valve to produce things and they should re-evaluate it, but you can do this while also not turning into a rank and yank shit out fortnite clones 420 69 flossing scheme to fuck over users and line their pockets.

Unless they fuck it up somehow in recruiting a new CEO, Valve really wouldn’t find it hard to ask a new CEO “Here’s our revenue, and our expenses, our profits. How would you keep this in place without crashing our revenue stream and maybe doing new greenfield stuff?”

If their first words are: “Well, I like the idea of charging our customers an install fee…” you know to keep looking.

My concern is his son despite having this shit DRILLED INTO HIS HEAD (which I can’t guarantee) will chase a cashout. That’s the one problem with nepos.

The other problem is if he’s qualified for the job. Which feeds into point 1.

Its really hard to get a look inside Valve, because I can’t confirm/deny the Steam Deck came about because of the flat management. I’ll be honest, my apprehension about their management stems from the many failed attempts to conclude the franchise they started in Half-Life and how 20 different projects died to get to Alyx. Would a change in leadership get us more of the same? Maybe. It would probably be a substandard product, and i’m still recovering from Starfield being mid.

Well his name didn’t show up in Epstein’s public records (unlike a certain CEO from a company Microsoft bought/CEO that founded/ran Microsoft) so we’re fine there.

And I did look. Extensively.

It’s a good sign because 1) He’s smart enough to not have a paper trail and/or 2) His hobbies are innocuous, like, I think he really only cares about submersibles and knives and he wasn’t stabbing people on some carbon fiber tube near the titanic so he’s not a dumbass either.

I know right, its almost like the dumbass in charge at Tesla is a different person than the one in charge at Valve!

We are living in a future Hypnospace Outlaw sequel right now

“client billing issue,” “client legal issue,” and “safety compliance issue” are my personal favorites

This tracks, have you seen how many times I restart a React project?

I actually have a set of some 74 hand tools from Craftsman my dad gifted me in 1995, and surprisingly they have lasted me for some 30-something years in excellent condition. Power tools, I can’t go that far back. I imagine B&D has ruined everything Sears left behind.

A Republican in the US desperately wants something like a monarchy, where they can kiss someone’s boot forever.

Because I saw accounts elsewhere that Sony is only providing parts and support for these projectors now, and Alamo is changing vendors. They half assed it, not Sony.

These are all accounts I saw on The Verge and I cannot independently verify them.

Good news! Sony has exited the business, and its basically Alamo’s fault they didn’t move faster on their vendor change.

These are all accounts I saw on The Verge and I cannot independently verify them.

I know these are issues with any tech but the amount of expertise and culture around 70mm film at least guarantees its continued adoption for some.

Buy citizenship out of the US and build a better country abroad with your foreign investment. Not much to do with the way things are going, but you can make Ireland or Monténégro a better place.

Its funny because everything about ISO 8601 is covered on its Wikipedia article. Very few people need to spend the francs to need the spec.
