To be fair, that’s also how I would describe confluence.

Like sure, but that feels beyond the scope of a bed making discussion.

What highly sought after goods?

I don’t doubt that their predatory financial institutions claim to own that much of the economy, but what do they actually produce?

As far as I can tell all they produce is too big companies that expand globally and send profits back home.

Real talk: why does everyone care so much about trade with the US?

Can the EU, plus AUS / CAN / NZ / UK, plus non-China South-East Asia, really not replace the US and it’s great output of … predatory financial institutions?

Fatal counter point to all your arguments:

It feels better when you do.

Literally none of your logical arguments matter one iota because the human brain does not care how much you logic an argument. It feels nicer and more comforting climbing into a made bed then an unmade one.

Also, lying on wrinkly sheets is inherently uncomfortable.

Stop living in a dumbass fucking filter bubble.

Blocking is for people who are abusive, not people who coherently express a point slightly different then the one you made.

And they are literally unquestionably and objectively right. Literally every single tool ever created was made to reduce the amount of labour it takes to do a task, which reduces the value of human labour. It’s called automation. Read Karl Marx if you think you’re such a leftist, he’ll explain it you.

🤔

On the Voyager app you can see that it wasn’t edited at all.

That really does not matter. Spend some time camping with no phones and notice how differently you feel and behave. Humans did not evolve to have smartphones and social media, it triggers numerous emotional responses without actually satisfying them, by its inherent nature.

Social media. You use it up spending time on Reddit and Lemmy etc.

If that description is accurate then there’s nothing unprofessional about that.

What would be unprofessional in that situation is the original devs not doing their jobs and then allowing a fan backlash to grow.

Again, we don’t know the reality of the situation. I think everyone would be curious to hear from other devs at the studio that aren’t part of management or the three who were fired but we haven’t yet.

I do, I don’t trust the outraged opinions of people using the outrage machine.

They did not have any reason to personally attack the leads except out of spite,

Lol what the honest fuck are you talking about?

They were facing a boycott because it seemed like they fired the original creators to avoid paying the employees.

They could have issued a statement saying that they would still pay the remaining employees and everyone would assume that they still fired the creators out of greed reasons. If the creators actually didn’t do their jobs, then they would want to make it clear that they are the ones actually committed to making a good game and this has nothing to do with greed.

That may not be the case, but at present we simply do not know what the reality of the situation was.

It’s honestly fucking absurd.

People should start removing the construction fencing unilaterally at the completion date unless Metrolinx has given a new one.

That’s not why people get outraged, they get outraged because it’s addictive and they spend too much time on social media.

To be fair, they didn’t trash anyone publicly until they basically had to.

Metro has started stocking Brine co pickles and they’re honestly way way better than Bick’s. Crunchier and a more complex flavour.

And yes, things break naturally as a function of time.

Why don’t you go ahead and explain the exact mechanism that causes software to change and would cause a computer to interpret it differently over time, without a human intervening and updating it to break it.

Don’t worry, we’ll wait.

Yes, they can have their software continue to support Windows by simply not breaking the version that works for windows, without having to provide full customer support and service for it.

False.
