I think this is precisely why I have such a visceral reaction to blurring swear words and using euphemisms like 'unalive'.
Language naturally evolves over time but I really don't like the idea that it's being disproportionately influenced by social media companies and their shitty algorithms trying to please advertisers. Yuck!
Yeah the mystery of the triangle was puffed up by disingenuous authors who lied and fudged details to pretend ships went missing all the time. Things like reporting ships missing but not their eventual returns, claiming there were no storms when records showed otherwise, including sinkings and crashes that happened well outside the triangle, and a bunch more.
When the the data is analysed; the number of incidents is the same as anywhere else on the planet.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. If your site doesn't work on Firefox your site doesn't work. As web developers your job is to develop applications for the web not for one specific browser. This goes double for essential services.
It was also later discovered to cause lung cancer, mesothelioma and also because of its fibrous structure; it breaks into lots of tiny little microscopic needles when agitated. Those little shards get inhaled and poke tiny holes in your lungs which causes Asbestosis (kind of like Emphysema for smokers).
This is also why a lot of beer and other alcohol is bottled in brown bottles. The brown glass blocks some amount of UV exposure which can affect the final product over time.
Green glass has no such benefit though. Just looks nice.
MMOs to MOBAs to BR.... On and on and on. Publishers being 2 years too late to a trend and trying to jump on the train after it left the station fucking over their existing fanbase in the process. The MBAs in charge of these decisions should be fired.... Out of a cannon into the sun.
As someone who is also awkwardly treading the line between being a soulless hack and trying to get my work noticed by literally anyone: please edit your top comment with a link to your game.
I mean it. I can't even muster the courage to post my renders to Instagram without feeling like some desperate influencer goof.
The fact that shrink-wrapped agreements aren't automatically void worldwide is a fucking abomination. No you shouldn't get to push a legally binding contract on me after I paid for the product. It's my property now and if you want to require a license agreement after the sale then I should be able to decline it for a full refund fuck you.
When I bought Fallouts 1, 2 and Tactics from EB like 15 years ago I couldn't run them even with the disc in the drive. The shitty securom was broken and refused to recognise the disc. It was only thanks to pirates that I was able to crack them and play the copies I fucking paid money for.
Another example of "strong men" being unimaginably weak.
