- Comment on Why is leadership valued so much over expertise? 1 day ago:
I the pre-Jack Welch America, it was very common to have highly-skilled, very senior technical people making almost as much (and in some cases, more) than the CEO or the company president. This included architects, lawyers, accountants, engineers and any person that was deemed invaluable to the company.
Fuck Jack Welch and fuck MBAs.

Worse are those comments that have an edit saying: "Never mind, I figured it out."

I find it endearing: Cigar factory workers, mostly women, hired collectively someone to read to them to keep them entertained, and in some cases, educated. While I guess you can get a similar experience with audiobooks, if it was me, I would miss the sense of community and live performing.

But the pitt is so much information per minute, after one episode is done I barely rememver half of it.

- Comment on Sega has canceled development of its ‘super game’, as it pivots away from live service games | VGC 5 weeks ago:
The market has shown time and time again there's a place for good 2D games or 3D games that aren't using bleeding edge graphics.
Rolling thunder, Golden Axe, Outrun, Eternal Champions, Bonanza Bros..
There are many abandoned great franchises that in the right hands (see the latest Shinobi) would do great IMO.

- Comment on 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗 2 months ago:
I wouldn't say that nature is cruel, but amoral and chaotic, with a focus on trying all the venues for survival, whith some for moral beings like us, seemingly cruel.
When I did experimentation, I often focused on minimizing harm. I also try doing as much good as I am doing "bad". That helps me deal with this.

I wish though they were a bit more friendly towards Proton/Wine. Knowing what games are compatible and to what degree before purchasing them would make me happier.

- Comment on Is anyone else having a hard time sympathizing with Americans? 4 months ago:
Buddy, what you're seeing happening here might happen sooner than you think in your country. Do you think that exceptionalism and police militarization is a US only thing? Let's see what happens with all the right wing parties in Europe, from now onwards.
America is responsible for much worse crimes that occur virtually every day across the world.
Show me a rich country that hasn't been doing crimes against humanity to gain profit from it (Ireland maybe?) and yet I wouldn't blame French people for all the torture and misery they caused to Algerians or Belgians what keeps happening in Congo, koreans what South Korea is doing in Magadascar, etc. Etc. Etc.
The fact is even democratic governments like those mention here are within the spheres of influence of billionaires and it isn't like poor mucks like me have any saying nor blame for it.
I'll encourage you to transform your vitriolic hate in a productive endeavor.
