Yes she does LOL
- Comment on Xbox CEO Asha Sharma shares her gamertag — what it reveals 9 hours ago:
You said they don’t need to be a gamer. How can someone not be a gamer and know absolutely anything about XBOX? That seems like a bare minimum?
- Comment on Xbox CEO Asha Sharma shares her gamertag — what it reveals 10 hours ago:
I’m honestly completely blown away at the number of people who think a CEO does not need to know absolutely anything about the product they’re supposed to be selling…

“She has zero experience but at least she’s not lying, I guess?”
Yeah I don’t get what you’re trying to say here at all.
- Comment on Xbox CEO Asha Sharma shares her gamertag — what it reveals 11 hours ago:
I think being an active gamer is an important quality but it certainly doesn’t guarantee success. Certainly having never played an XBOX before in your life is a BAD BAD quality for XBOX leadership.
- Comment on Xbox CEO Asha Sharma shares her gamertag — what it reveals 13 hours ago:
Former Xbox leadership Phil Spencer, whom Sharma was succeeding, was a prolific collector of achievements with a rich gamercard that was a popular subject of discussion among Xbox communities.
Scrolling to the bottom, Sharma’s very first achievement was unlocked in The Master Chief Collection and was the aptly titled “Your Journey Begins” on January 15 of this year

Because it’s dumb.
- Comment on New packaging can warn you when meat has spoiled 3 days ago:
Why would I read an article that doesn’t matter? I’ve never gotten sick from a piece of spoiled meat in my life.

- Comment on Sony plans to minimize effect of rising PlayStation 5 memory costs by boosting software and network service revenue, according to CFO 4 days ago:
Sounds like they are taking the loss. Subsidizing the increased cost of production with funds from online subscriptions…
…those are 2 opposite things.
- Comment on Sony plans to minimize effect of rising PlayStation 5 memory costs by boosting software and network service revenue, according to CFO 5 days ago:
I mean you could just take the loss? But I guess shareholders wouldn’t be happy about that.

- Comment on Is the Xbox One X a good console/4k player in 2026? 1 week ago:
Ok, not good advice
I…disagree?
You ignored the main questions I had
…what questions?
Also 4k players for PC’s are fucked and have tons of issues.
Been using them for years, no idea what you mean.
- Comment on Is the Xbox One X a good console/4k player in 2026? 2 weeks ago:
Look around on your local classifieds. Anything you find there should be better than an Xbox. Put Bazzite on it and you got the console experience.
- Comment on How Big Tech Killed Online Debate 2 weeks ago:
Something happened over time, and I think it coincided with the rise of Donald Trump and the emergence of Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok as the social media platforms of choice. A lot of people just stopped bothering to defend their ideas against people who disagree with them. The arguments dried up.
It’s because we’ve realized these people are a completely lost cause.

Thanks. 10 minutes of video and not 1 second of actual gameplay footage. Don’t know why I even bother anymore.

Any non-YT link? Can’t watch shit on YT anymore
- Comment on He Built a Privacy Tool. Now He’s Going to Prison. 2 months ago:
I mean the full story is worth reading/watching/listening, IMO (I listened). Especially regarding the legal details. About how he was charged with conspiracy to commit money laundering, even though he’s not a bank and handled no money at any time, and even though legal precedent says otherwise.

- Comment on Ford ends F-150 Lightning production, starts battery storage business 2 months ago:
if you actually need a work truck, the Lightning is deficient in the #1 thing that makes a work truck a work truck.
yeah…no
The “#1 thing” depends on the application. It can be power, towing capacity, payload capacity, just a bed in general, the massive amount of electrical power available to power tools, cost of ownership, etc. etc.
- Comment on Ford ends F-150 Lightning production, starts battery storage business 2 months ago:
I think we can all agree its >1% but also a small number. That small number is plenty for them to keep making them. But alas, most of those folks did not buy them.
- Comment on ARC Raiders purposefully puts jerks in the same lobby as each other 2 months ago:
I find it extremely hard to believe they could identify “jerks” programmatically with any accuracy.
Would be fairly easy, really. Which player opened fire first? Which player said “don’t shoot” just before shooting?
- Comment on ARC Raiders purposefully puts jerks in the same lobby as each other 2 months ago:
Same.
- Comment on Ford ends F-150 Lightning production, starts battery storage business 2 months ago:
Who said it was going very far? He tows them back and forth from the Marina to other water bodies in the local area or to customers’ homes.
- Comment on Ford ends F-150 Lightning production, starts battery storage business 2 months ago:
Those giant crew cab monstrosities are the best-selling vehicles in America.
The problem is that F150 buyers are the very largest anti-EV meatheads. It’s the wrong market for such a vehicle.
- Comment on Ford ends F-150 Lightning production, starts battery storage business 2 months ago:
Quite the contrary, the Lightning makes an excellent work truck for those who actually need work trucks. I know a couple people who use them that way. One of them owns a boat dealership and uses it for towing large and heavy boats every day. The other owns a construction business.
