Amazon exec doesn't give a shit. Their whole model with tech workers is to recruit them based on the "prestige" of working for Amazon, dunno increasingly more talking on them, burn them out before they start asking for real raises, rinse and repeat.

I am wholly and unironically on the orcas' side here.

Yes, but the Biden administration is also forcing federal workers back into the office sooooo...

Haha I was saying that 1 week is too long too freeze the gag order. I totally agree that CNN should have put the duration in the headline.

Still too long.

"Guys, getting this whole speaker debacle figured out is SUPER important for us to get done... after we take a break for the weekend."

A CR that's six months long is just a budget by another name.

There is zero reason for Democrats to throw any votes behind a Republican speaker. If the majority party can't find a leader they agree on, that's on them. Dems only need 5 Reps to back Jefferies.

Spend your remaining 18 days playing Lies of P instead. Or TMNT Shredders Revenge. Or Arcade Paradise. Or Exoprimal if you wanna get wild.

Nope. It's money. Republicans are just a symptom.

Get rid of Citizens United and watch how things change.

What a pussy.

Geez, we'd be looking at north of $20/mo. for the modern quality level/resolution.

At those rates, I'll just buy a 4K Blu-ray every month. At least that way I know I'm getting good content (and better A/V quality to boot).

How many Mooches was that?

I get that on the surface, but we all know McCarthy cannot be trusted to keep his word on any deal.

Why would any Dem vote for a Rep?

Honest question, as I truly have no clue.

Do you know if there's a way to access a non-paywalled version of that article?

Ehh there's a pretty decent chance that was a bluff by Gaetz. Reps have no other options for speaker right now; nobody else wants the job, and the very few who do have zero chance of being elected to the position.

"Clean". The quotes are crucial because it's actually, y'know, not clean.

Great review. This echoes my feelings as well.

Loop Hero feels like it's on the precipice of being good, but the path to success with the gameplay loop is pretty hard to sus out. You do stuff, and it seems like you're getting the pieces needed to progress, but then the game doesn't really change at all.

Agreed that it's fun in bursts. Worth playing for 10-20 min every few days. This isn't like Enter the Gungeon or Slay the Spire, where you feel like you always need just one more run.

Not an option for many federal workers.
