Report: Activision Blizzard expected to cut 136 jobs from Cork office

  • Acquisition in the tech world just means future layoffs.

    • Why aren't more people using NixPKGs?

    Jump

  • Steam Deck is using Flatpaks so.....

    • Is there a downside to Flatpak?

  • Endlessly reading on social media that is not a good from Linux "gurus". LOL

    It's been great for me, but I wish it had a official gui for permissions management.

    • Sony misses PS5 sales target as console enters ‘latter stage of its life cycle’

  • Steam has won me over. Cheap games and free online play. And now amazing Linux support.

    • Oregon’s Drug Decriminalization Aimed to Make Cops a Gateway to Rehab, Not Jail. State Leaders Failed to Make It Work.

  • It's a fucking mess. Fentanyl costs less than a dollar. There's open street drug markets. It's not uncommon seeing people shooting up or smoking out of tinfoil. Tents are randomly everywhere with people doing drugs.

    Portland used to be vibrant and clean. It's pretty much a toilet for the unhoused. Cleanup crews comb the early streets. I routinely see a guy spraying disinfectant on store fronts because people are peeing and shitting in doorways. I would guess that half of the businesses have left. Lots of stores are boarded up.

    We have had recorded crime the last couple of years. Crime is finally starting to go down, but not as fast as similar cities.

    I don't like addicts going to prison, but expecting them to just seek out treatment after getting a $100 ticket is dumb. When incentive is there?

    The process failed because it was stupid to begin with. It should have required treatment and training was ready before decriminalizing.

    • Sudo is coming to windows

    Jump

  • If my crystal ball is correct, Windows will be Linux in 10 years.

    • ditch discord!

    Jump

  • Discord seems okay for chat, but not good for information that is going to be retained and indexed. Isn't this already known? Why is this news?

    • Nightclubs on the brink as clean-living Gen Zs ditch scene

    Jump

  • Average cocktail around here is $15 + 20% tip = $18.

    • Microsoft’s recent layoffs contradict what the company promised of its merger, the FTC says.

    Jump

  • 🐆 8 my 😶

    • The FTC isn’t too happy with Microsoft’s Activision Blizzard layoffs

    Jump

  • Like when do big mergers like this not end in layoffs? The redundancy in management wouldn't make sense. Like what does the FTC think Microsoft was going to do? 😆

    • What's an underrated/life changing product that's cheap?

  • Wooden closepins at the dollar store. Use them everywhere.

    • McDonald's is promising 'attention to affordability' after the price of Big Mac meals hits $18

    Jump

  • I usually just stop for coffee. It's like $1.25

    • Microsoft revives aggressive Windows 11 upgrade campaign with intrusive popups for Windows 10 users

    Jump

  • Every 6 years I have to about people that are not updating. The drama.

    • former smokers, do you ever have random moments months or years later where you just get textbook "cravings" symptoms?

    Jump

  • Mostly, I just want to hang outside work, bum or share a smoke and socialize.

    • Do you think there are any homeless people who never use drugs, have no mental illness, but are just sick of society and choose to walk the Earth like Caine in Kung Fu?

    Jump

  • Totally! But sadly probably not the norm.

    • How much should you spend on a smartphone

    Jump

  • Divide the total cost by how many years of OS updates are given by the manufacturer.

    • Are there any studies done on how much linux can save governments money if they do a whole migration?

    Jump

  • The issue with Linux is getting middle management to support it. I'm my experience is based on them laying you off and hiring somebody else. Linux is great but management needs support contracts.

    • It’s Surprisingly Easy to Live Without an Amazon Prime Subscription

  • Amazon Prime is the biggest scam.
