“Corporation” is a legal term; Valve is privately owned, but it’s structured as an LLC or Limited Liability Company.

We’ve practically exhausted the Exploration and Expansion phases

The Ocean and Space both called, and they disagree

Edit: damn okay we’re done exploring and there’s nowhere left to colonise, my mistake for making a throwaway joke comment on such a serious topic 🙄

Oh, so it’s okay for you to have reasons for doing things other than fighting the system, but nobody else gets that consideration? Here in the US, we can be summarily executed for speaking out, and we’re doing it anyway. Quit being insufferable.

And here you are, commenting on social media, instead of doing something about it.

Sure, but reading the article, I think he might be knowledgeable enough. His mistake seems to have been blindly trusting the keys to the kingdom to an enthusiastic junior dev who’ll be very sorry if they nuke your system, but won’t think to do a damn thing to make sure it doesn’t happen in the first place…

This. We’re all overworked so we all have less energy for things like keeping ourselves fit. And actually exercising really doesn’t sell itself either, it hurts and it’s hot and I’m still trying to catch my damn breath from my sets earlier. Stupid maintenance.

But it beats the hell out of literally slowly suffocating in my chair at my desk.

Oh, I know the answer to this one. It’s because we don’t have single-payer healthcare, which Republicans don’t want because they don’t want bureaucratic death panels of disconnected doctors denying people access to medication.

They’d much prefer to have bureaucratic death panels entirely disconnected from any medical expertise denying people access to their medication and for spurious reasons.

I like the irony of that.

Our code is hallucinated but our legal team is very, very real

Control. I’ve always had a fondness for SCP-related stuff so when I saw Control on sale for $3 or $4 it was an instant mindless purchase. Bored a few days later I decided to give it a go, and then I went and beat the entire game and the DLC. Great power fantasy, great lore, great voice acting, fun moment to moment gameplay balanced between exploring, upgrading, story beats, and boss fights. Also ties in to their other games like Alan Wake; I haven’t played that one, but I’ve strongly considered it just because of Control and wanting more of that universe.

It’s an anxiety thing; the actual name is “rejection sensitivity dysphoria”: https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/24099-rejection-sensitive-dysphoria-rsd

A lot of AuDHD people suffer it. Great example, I started a business and I’ve gotten 99% positive feedback on the product from dozens of people, but a handful of negative comments and two of my best friends didn’t like it, and I’ve actually considered giving up entirely because of that.

Which is insane. I love my product, I’m very happy with it… but my buddies not liking it makes me very sad on a whole bunch of levels.

Also I did delete my old account and comments, precisely because as MagicShel said above: it had existed long enough to be a liability. It’s not as big a deal here as on Reddit though, you can export your preferences and get back to the same subscriptions and blocks very easily on any new account!

Agree completely, these shenanigans are a big reason I’m on a selfhosting rampage at the minute. Speaking of, does anyone have favourite self-hosted alternatives?

If you want to, ask her and put it in your calendar! It’s always nice to know someone remembers you fondly enough to send well wishes 😊

With the number of school shootings here, I think it’d only take weeks.

Nah dude, he harassed her into it until she said yes. Consensual affairs don’t involve official harassment complaints.

Edit: And don’t look for anything but hypocrisy from people who protect Trump, it’s a waste of time

She’s gonna have power over your employment; if you don’t trust her not to use that to fuck with you (and it sounds like you can’t), don’t go work there. You’ll be able to find a position elsewhere.

I’m always a little shocked when people ask me if my product is on Amazon. I never even considered it because I’ve known what they are for so long; it’s been a bit of a wakeup call that most people still have no idea how fucking awful Amazon is. It sucks struggling with market visibility, selling just from my own website, but it beats the hell out of being bullied like this until I’m big enough to have my product stolen and copied by Amazon Basics.

So elegant! This is too valuable for GitHub, sell this directly to the Saudi government.

Edit: Ah, sold privately, as in directly between individuals? I’m not sure about that, but they totally could. They can track the location of the car; if it starts getting parked at a different house regularly, for example, it’d be easy to tell it’d been sold.
