I am the lead on a team of 5 and technically we have an on call rotation but it is rarely used. In the last 3 years I have been called after hours a total of 4 times and TBH it was usually due to an AWS outage which resulted in us saying well let’s see how long it takes for them to o restore services and then someone run a safety check to make sure shit is normal.
For that I make $120k, have unlimited PTO, and work from home.
It worked for The last of Us and Spiderman. Optimization through exclusivity allows the publishers to spend less time chasing down random bugs and rendering issues.
Came to say this. I enjoy hunting and outdoor activities so I have a multitude of gear. What I use depends on where I am going, who is going with me, and what activities we plan on doing. Such as:
30ft Toy Hauler Camper
UTV and flatbed trailer
Truck bed Tent
Tents of various sizes and various types of climates
Sleeping bags for various climates
Hiking/Hunting clothes and shoes for various climates
Binos and Spotting scopes of various styles
Backpacks… So many backpacks
Rifles of various calibers for hunting different game and environments and various fishing poles
Lifejackets, paddle boards, and kayaks
I know 2 people who wrote COBOL code for some major healthcare systems a long time ago and they came out of retirement about 5 years ago to update/convert that code. They made six figure salaries working from home to update that code.
I use Windows for work and gaming, MacOS for app development (mostly because I can code for iOS and Android in one environment), and ChromeOS for my daily browsing.
I just enjoy how chrome always works when I need to just browse the internet or buy something online without issue.
When I worked as a IT Tech at a University years ago we had a lot of MacOS users who believed they could just pick it up and use it like their iPhone. It was absurd how well their marketing worked because those users either forced themselves to learn it or dropped it and went back to Windows.
I know a lot of iOS users who have iPads and iPhones but still have windows PCs because they don’t have to worry about compatibility issues.
Well Bears are fucking massive so if they slapped you without claws they still have the ability to break bones and cause other severe injury.
I wish Wild Arms had an official mobile port. Such a great series with no modern IP usage to take advantage of its cult status.
Came to say the same. Why are you driving users to their platform at all?
My cousin is a lobbyist (the shitty insurance kind) and it’s difficult conversing with someone who literally sells out the rest of us in the name of capitalism. I can’t imagine how difficult it would be to have a kid on the opposite side of the political spectrum doing a job you feel is dishonest and hoping they do the right thing.
I think that’s actually closer to the mark than many realize. Awards are great when they are not directed at the company or it’s rep in a negative manner as they show positive engagement and help the company with sales marketing. When awards and upvote/downvote counters are used to highlight that the users are having a negative experience then it hurts the platform image. Similarly to how YouTube removed the downvote tracker because their marketing team realized it hurt their sales revenue with business partners.
I got super paranoid about clickers in The Last of Us and I really enjoy stealth gameplay so I maxed out shiv and used the bow a lot. Near the end I just went full Scarface once I realized all my enemies were just humans and everyone got a Molotov.
My son plays this game. I always hear him getting pissed about something LoL
Years ago I started on WoT and went to WoWS and was immediately hooked. Loved it at first but they really do not give a shit about their player base. I haven’t logged on to either in about 3 years.
I have owned temtem for a few years and I haven’t spent a dime beyond the initial purchase. I enjoy the more modern Pokemon type experience but I haven’t played in about a year due to work and other interests. I had no idea ait had become so transaction focused.
I was really hooked onto Marvel Snap for the first 4 seasons I played (6-7 total now). The game can be a lot of fun. I haven’t made infinite the last 2 seasons and I stopped paying for premium after my 3rd season. I don’t regret doing that since the game has become more transaction focused and I feel it’s quick turn around makes it more enjoyable than MtG. That said I wouldn’t recommend someone to pickup the game if they are serious about competitive card players.
You mean fuel scoop. Nothing worse than making jumps with a full tank only to get to your destination and realize you forgot to equip a fuel scoop. Better hope they have a fuel scoop you can afford that also doesn’t take forever to refuel!
Elite: Dangerous.
Hell of a good space trucker sim. If you like spending 2 hours managing your ship before making a 6 system jump only to dock and do it all over again.
How is this not a clear attempt to defraud investors at this point by forcing the company into bankruptcy?
I have read and watched every piece of SW media I could get my hands on for the last 30 years. There were absolutely some trash books or plotlines but nothing is worse than the 3 sequels and the Book of Boba Fett. Also, Solo got a bad rap.
