I think they had to drop split screen from the Series S, at least for now.

If you’re assuming it’s trashed anyway may as well try to fix it.

I’m absolutely loving it. I love that I can pace the game myself thanks to the turn based design, that my actions have consequences, that it’s a proper role playing game.

I’m about 30 hours in and it’s fantastic.

They might be good at being camels, but they’re terrible horses. And if you’ve ever tried to lead a group of more than a handful of people, you’d know they can never agree on shit. Someone has to make the call.

I’m sorry, I took this the wrong way:

Go figure! People with different personal priorities existing! What a world!

No reason to be that way, we were having a nice conversation.

You ever seen a camel? It’s a horse that’s been designed by a committee. Democratically run things don’t accomplish shit because you can never get groups of people to agree on anything.

What’s your ideal situation? They create make work jobs? Give the development and production teams some brooms and fire the custodial staff instead? Their job is done. Time to find new ones.

It’s exactly that. There’s no one person, no group of people, that can control a market. It’s a force, an abstract concept at this point. Any thoughts that it can be controlled is hubris or naivety.

Well that’s the thing, I don’t really consider it injustice. I consider it as something that sucks, but things that suck happen. It’s just kind of part of life. You get past it. I guess that’s my view.

Like a farmer experiencing a drought. That’s not injustice, it just sucks.

I’ve been laid off. It sucks, but you find a new job, and in the tech world that usually comes with a pay bump.

“punish labor” 😂

They’ll find new jobs. Companies have no loyalty to employees and employees have no loyalty to companies. Nobody is in it for love. They got paychecks, now they’ll find someone else to give them paychecks. It’s transactional.

Zero Dawn was a lot of fun but it’s the only Horizon title I’ve played.

God damn I miss Ogame back when it was decent. Even getting fleet crashed because you forget to send them on a mission was exciting. I’ll keep an eye on this thread, that sounds fun.

Seeing Hexen on there made me happy. Reminded me of a much simpler time.

I just have a cron script running on a machine that does something like this every 10 seconds

C_IP=`dig +short my.domain`
IP=`curl https://api.ipify.org`
if(C_IP != IP) {
    updateRoute53(IP)
}

This is just for my main home server. Gets the job done because if it’s out of date for a few seconds nothing matters.
