I have a 10 year old CPU and I think Baldur’s Gate 3 has better performance than Battletech sometimes.

Witcher 3 doesnt need leveled enemies or loot. There is already a wide enough variety of monsters and equipment to convey player progression, and the leveling only exists to make sure that Geralt is as vulnerable to human enemies at the end of the game as the beginning. That’s great! That’s the kind of world it is. I just don’t think you need constantly increasing hitpoints & a loot treadmill to keep it that way.
…just in case you were on the fence on whether the ‘quiet quitting’ articles and viral ‘nobody wants to work anymore’ pieces were just employer temper-tantrums, here’s CNBC trial-ballooning some fresh derogatory shorthand for workers who know what their labor is worth.
The only way I get the equipment or maintenence time that I need to do my job efficiently is if I make my immediate superiors strategically miserable on occasion. If I did what the article insists is the ideal, I’d be doomed to silently perform the same temporary, time-wasting fixes every week forever.
You can’t count on your work to ‘speak for itself’ if the company isn’t specifically examining your contributions in the first place. They will happily presume that your work is exactly interchangeable with everyone else’s because most middle managers aren’t experts at data collection and analysis and don’t spend 8 hours a day seeing what floor workers do.
It’s even worse if they’re an outside hire, with potentially no relevant experience to compare it to. I swear companies do this on purpose to avoid elevating people with institutional knowledge and any sense of ownership in their area of expertise: they might end up accidentally paying someone what they’re worth.
Unfortunately the Brandenburg test (“imminent lawless action”) isn’t too far from that. His actual speech was unethical and selfish, but unlikely to be deemed illegal.
Moto x rocked. Last phone I ever really liked owning. My galaxy phone is just a tool, comparatively.
This was super handy, but these days you have to carefully prune your notification permissions, or it would go off all the time
Smaller, narrower phones generally. Blackberry keyboards (and slideout keyboards) in particular.
Loved the various hardware oddities of the moto Z line: a rear fingerprint scanner that was easy to use while holding the phone, and of course the magnetic attachments. Used to carry two batteries that could hot-swap, and a game controller in my bag.
Swapped to SmartTubeNext. Has all the expected features plus better browsing and an ‘auto-skip sponsors’ mode.
I’ve found a new reason to use the subscribed page - it shows more videos per screen than the home screen, now that YouTube on Android TV has massively increased the preview panel to an absurd degree. There’s barely any room for identifiers, just two or three video previews taking up the entire screen, like I’ve blown up a phone app on my TV. Wtf YouTube?
“So, we’ve all had a… time on Reddit lately,” Go_JasonWaterfalls wrote. “And I’m here to recognize it, acknowledge that our relationship has been tested, and begin the ‘now what?’ conversation.”
If I was part of the organization responsible for making unilateral changes that only benefitted itself, I’d be embarrassed to start a message this way.
“Now that I’ve slapped you around a little, let’s talk about what YOU can do to repair our relationship” is what it sounds like to me.
Agreed - working as intended, and it’s not just LDS. I’m in FL and churches here have been opposing publicly funded safety nets for my whole life, in favor of voluntary, often church-led, donations.
