Well the ratings are part of the evidence base used to justify CEO pay, which is why they are threatening this. Hard to say you personally deserve more money if the company has gone from 4-Star to 1-Star.

Not to be confused with “No.”

Jo Cox, she was a wonderful woman and we owe it to her, and to history, to remember her name. She was murdered for her views, not only on Brexit, but on comprehensive support of Syrian people (not just handling ISIS/IL but Asad too) and of Gazan people.

Anyone downplaying the idea of threats to MPs has a disgracefully short fucking memory. People can be radicalised to many views and many places on the political spectrum and we need to at minimum remember that extremists can have strange (and unwilling) bedfellows.

Becky from an accounting is a vegan and you insisted on roasting a boar next to her desk. When she asked you to move you just shouted about already having cast Tiny Hut and that you “weren’t going to break camp now!”

Well I don’t speak for everyone in the UK but we are Europeans, just not in the European Union. Nobody would say that the Swiss aren’t European just for not having EU citizenship.

That said the headline is itself lazy and hubristic; to call ALL Europeans these things is simply wrong, the breadth of economic and societal difference between the East and West, the North and South, make such generalisations completely pointless.

It’s releasing in two months and they have only announced the name…

Not a marketing strategy that exudes confidence in the end product, is it?

Teen: “Excuse me; how do I become a Tech Lead like you someday” Lead: “By simple luck of the draw I am the best at googling other people’s solutions to my team’s YAML config issues.”

Don’t forget the “culture” being interfered with is the descendants of humans, forcibly removed from Earth to be slaves in a culture of violence, oppression, and fear. Not exactly the Quimbo of Shoogle VII, who just want to keep hitting people with sticks thinking it’ll cure the plague, or whatever.

Why would he know, that’s a screenshot of an android device.

You can quit work and starve. You can quit school and get in a little bit of trouble. I don’t really see the equivalence here.

Children have lots of rights in this analogy, in fact in a great many places, they also have a right to be cared for by the state that adults don’t. Statutory service provision routinely is written in protection of children.

Weirdly, most people don’t have a right to take out and use their phone when working, and given that’s the thread topic it’s a decent sized hole in your argument. I worked a high-wage and technical role, white collar as it gets, and you know where my phone was when I was meant to be concentrating on my work, in my pocket. Know what would happen if I was fucking about on it when I had something important to do? Disciplinary, HR, threatened loss of livelihood. If you’re arguing you’re not being treated like adults, I have bad news for you.

Look, you’re not some oppressed underclass of unperson and your myopic determination to cast yourself as such is a genuine insult to people living under actual hardship.

I’m employed in Film and currently “stood down” while our actors are on strike. On one hand it’s great to have time to hit some of the games I’ve been hoarding, on the other, I may be playing them in a cardboard box come February.

It’s been a while since I did Xbox memory mapping (One X) but IIRC there is approx 2GB of ram withheld by the system, and then an additional one or two can be recalled by the system for the purposes of running things like background downloads, party chat, video chat. That means that when your game goes to cert it’s checked to be performant under max OS load; so 6GB. This causes lots of issues (and is a pain as even MS’s analytics indicated this was a use case that appeared almost never. From what I have heard since, these TCRs/XRs/FTCs having changed much.
