Whenever I think he can't dig the well of douchebaggery any deeper, he grabs a shovel and proves me wrong.

I don't get why HP continues selling in the consumer market if they are struggling so much to make a profit.It seems like they are trying to force a business model on the wider market that doesn't work.

The subscription model makes more sense in the B2B world where companies just want fixed costs without doing too much shopping around (for things like printer cartridges anyway).

JFC, talk about blast from the past. this is all I will hear for the rest of the day now.

My husband and I watched a bunch of it this year and there was some great stuff on it. Was really impressed by the doom run and the BL2 coop run was easily our favorite with a ton of crazy tricks that made us want to do a new playthrough. The TAS run of super metroid was really cool too. My husband really liked the ocotpath travelr 2 run and I liked the super Mario 2 run.

Frasier + Cult of the Lamb

LOL

Maybe a little like Charlie rules the world?

Well my understanding is that he was an executive producer on the film, which is a leadership position that impacts decisions on hiring staff like armory/weapons consultants.

As an actor he's probably not responsible but as EP he is .

The one thing where I agree with cable companies about is the risk to consumers accidentally canceling all or multiple services when they intend to just cancel one. It will be hard to explain that a package price will no longer apply if one part of the package is canceled.

However- it can be addressed with a well-designed cancelation instruction screen. This is a constraint to the communication and process design; it is not an insurmountable barrier like the cable companies are suggesting.

Based on her description of what the guy said it sounds like he was genuinely trying to just say something nice and she took it that way. As long as the email didn't follow up with a "so are you still single, let's get together" or whatever it's fine.

I think all the news of creepers out there and the Incel crowd makes it hard to see things through a positive lens, but there really are good folks out there. We all would benefit from assuming good intent when we see things like this.

I'm concerned too that if another more "moderate" candidate is placed on the gop side in enough states, people lukewarm on Biden could be persuaded to vote red when they would have voted for Biden in a Trump matchup. I'm sure that there are political types doing this math. I'm not sure Biden has the pull to get the win.

Relevant video from Razbuten about difficulty settings on games.

This is the only version of this idiom that I will ever use or subscribe to.

So if Boeing is such a mess that they are grouding their planes, why are their other planes still okay? The problems seem to be about how Boeing operates and aren't limited to one or two planes so it seems reasonable to think that others are being handled the same way. Why should we assume that other Boeing planes are safe?

Maybe for companies that aren't selling tools for digital artists, but WACOM is literally trying to sell a product that humans use to create these images. To usurp the their customer base and buy an AI image (even unintentionally) shows at best a complete lack of understanding about what kind of art is being made with their tablets and at worst a disregard for a major concern of their customer base.

I know it's not the point of the article but I need to express my annoyance at the fact that Christopher Nolan is encouraging dvd/bluray purchase so much. He explicitly designs shitty sound in his films supposedly to make them sound better for the theater (i question his success in that effort) and then doesn't adjust it for the bluray. So even then at home you have to adjust the sound up and down to hear the dialogue while not getting your eardrums blasted out by the action sequences.

Ok rant over. Otherwise I agree wholeheartedly, don't trust streaming services to keep your movies for you. Bluray is the way.

I'm excited about this. They have done such a good job at developing the game with substantial new content that makes me want to keep coming back to it. Will definitely playing this once it's out.

I read a proposal a while back about creating a dorm-like apartment complex for legislators that would be included free with the job with strong incentives to live there over private homes. This would also have the added benefit of improving personal relationships between the representatives so that they would be more inclined to work together and collaborate across party lines.

I used to browse linkedin all the time, and found that my contacts shared interesting articles and links that related to my job. I got 2 jobs from listing shared by my network that I'd never have found otherwise.

But it's been years since that time, and now it is a cesspool of shameless fake humble bragging and totally non-work appropriate content. I've been hit on multiple times with men trying to get me to chat with them about really personal stuff in DMs.

I'm job hunting now, and it's one of my main methods for finding opportunities but otherwise I wouldn't log on at all.

I'm only in chapter 2. Taking my time because I'm really enjoying it. I hope that's not the case - it has been a nice experience so far and will suck to end it on a sour note.

I have difficulty with the fact that a number of the games nominated for several categories had mixed or negative reviews. I feel like that should be a disqualifier for these awards. Starfield is the best example but there's a handful of others that were not well received but still made the cut. It makes me question the voting process.
