I’ve heard nothing but negative things about the gaming industry as of late. Does a majority of it stem from the industry being led by scumbag CEOs like this one?

- Comment on They eliminated cashiers and keep the profits. NY Democrats are fighting back. 2 weeks ago:
I read an interesting story about Obama admin funded these programs in West Virginia to help those jobs lost as coal mining became less profitable and mines closed, with the locals deciding what programs worked best for their communities. By far the most popular classes were: coal mining… Ironic if true, there may be some lessons learned in there somewhere.

300 billion in pure profits to executives… that could have ended hunger in the US last year.
So the next time you use the self checkout, remember to glance over at the lone cashier who lives in your neighborhood, look them in the eye and make sure they know about your excitement to be working for the shareholders for free now instead of their former colleagues. And if on the drive home you see their former colleague is getting evicted because they were laid off, make sure to honk, lean out your window and let them know how much you enjoyed the sweet song of “unexpected item in the bagging area.”

Scientists claiming they can predict (postdict?) what happened billions of years ago, but fail to predict what randomness Lemmy will obsess over next week.

From a friend who woked the frieght dept at an inland airport of a major city, he said from the sketchy sushi sold at coner gas stations to the fanciest upscale dining downtown, they all got the same frozen fish from the same distributor.

I’m not paranoid, but I think I’ve met my agent by chance. Nice enough guy, ex military I think. Kinda quiet, good to his lovely wife. 2 little boys. Never heard him say a hateful thing.

Do those things that Christians would never do. You know - help the poor and immigrants.
- Comment on Cool Japan 🌸 3 weeks ago:
It probably wasn’t anything wrong you had done wrong. From what I’ve been hearing from some family who do business in asia. As they explain it, Japan has had an economic whiplash from the 80s and a lot of those cultural and economic policies that gave them initial success were not sustainable long term. And since Japan is a VERY proud culture, they’ve found it easier to blame outsiders than their own miscalculations.

It’s been years now, but are you saying that BBQ joints don’t have Spanish speaking employees? Is that a Texas only thing?

Hopefully. The best satire is when it’s so close to reality that it’s almost believable.

This is what I love about our little community - at the end of the day it’s just plain fun.
- Comment on It’s Looking Like the Cybertruck Is the Biggest Flop in Automotive History 3 weeks ago:
I get that. The minimalist design is an antithesis to modern auto industrial design where subtle curves and swoops and curled body work are all over trucks these days. I always thought the extra curves were feminine and insulting to trucks marketed for heavy duty manly work. I agree with your observations on the cyber truck on every point. Still surprised it’s less successful than the Corvair though.
