Oh yeah. I can sign under every word you wrote

Well, we should automate everything that can be automated - for the benefit of everyone. Last part is something not seen on worldwide scale ever, just yet

6+ years dev cycles is something I am comfortable with, because I want something done well, and if it’s something big enough (like Cyberpunk 2077 or Baldur’s Gate), then of course it will take a long time, even with big command team

But I still haven’t figured out another end of such a deal: how to keep all the command team members alive, fed and comfortable for this long time? Buying a game once, even multiplied by whatever-count-of-copies-they-have-sold-for-now, doesn’t give a guarantee that all those people have enough money to just keep creating something exciting for as long as it takes

Thank you for the insight. I had no clue about the news on my own

I am at “no fucking yays and the bunch, check the package create/update dates, read PKGBUILD, only update when necessary”. Has served me well so far

Same. Unless I live like a hermit in the woods, I am definitely using, directly or not, something (many things) made by a company that has done unforgivable shit. And even if I personally decide “to hell with all this, I can survive just fine”, who will be there to stop them from destroying the whole forest I am supposedly in? Definitely not me

This does not make things all right as they stand, but it does mean quitting the game is not an option

So that’s why they went “you liked vertical desktops? now you will like horizontal layout. Don’t thank us”

After his fellas have demonstrated plain and clear that “recorded and reported” means nothing as long as you have enough money?

Haaa, go on and try that

Hey, big guy. Are we there yet?

One good thing AI bubble did: it showed me we have so many rich idiots that it is an actual problem

I am. It washes my body (as in corporeal form)

That makes more of us. Educated - of course, but also allowed.

Guess he didn’t rape enough children then
