top/bottom, clearly.

Joke’s on you capitalism, my employment EULA prohibits me from making outside income!

Speaking of Rare games, I was on track to 100% DK64 until my save corrupted on the final fairy. Never tried again, damn those bananas.

 

As per title. Most computer games these days are made with such unnecessary padding that I want to murder the devs or myself by the end. See, for example, Hyrule Warriors, the 100% 1000 Hour Nightmare, the Review.

The second game I ever 100%ed was Arceus and I still can’t stand the thought of picking it up again, years later. The first game was Horizon Zero Dawn, which is still fun.

I’ll assume you’re being intentionally obtuse because no one could actually be that dumb.

“Yeah, the load times are shit, but they aren’t shit enough to tell some intern to spend two months figuring out what’s going on.”

“What about when some nerd fixes it in a week and embarrasses us when he shows how it was caused by the addition of the shop?”

“We’ll fucking sue, that’s what.”

“What if we just paid him the bug bounty instead?”

“Fine, no need to Streisand this time, I guess.”

Rockstar being actual rockstars in their response :D

I want to see the companion program that queries the size of your number and then decides which part of the executable to mmap. It’d be so much faster and just require one or two more pieces in the analysis pipeline. We can totally set up a k8s cluster for this, right?

Thanks for shutting the trolls out at the gate, instead of letting them shit on the lawn like they wanted.

Unfortunately, I am not from the EU region, neither do I live in one

So, the GDPR doesn’t apply to you. So, you’re probably SOL?

Elon convinced everybody The Boring Company’s weird underground car holes a mile long was the only option. And then he quit once he chased off competition from the public option.

Look, these things just happen sometimes, okay?

Sure, verifying chicken is deboned before it leaves the factory makes more sense than installing x-ray machines at every pizzeria.

Your wisdom is deep yet fleeting, like the glacier.

It’s the weekend, let’s have a poll. Or a debate. Whichever.

Maybe stuck, but definitely still ship.

 

It hasn’t turned up anywhere else yet, so I’ve occasionally been checking the grocery store for the last few years.

 

I prompted Bing with Ian Malcom's timeless quote, "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should," and it gave me this nightmare in return.

 

Moral Crumple Zones discusses how humans are used to absorb liability from automated systems.

With Tesla’s Autopilot and Full Self-Driving linked to hundreds of crashes, dozens of deaths getting traction, it’s time to remind everyone that Tesla’s design choice to disengage self-driving in the instant before impact is intentional to ensure the driver is in control during the moment of impact, even though self-driving disengaged way too late for the human to react.

In my opinion, they’re sacrificing both bystanders and customers to preserve immunity from liability.
