  I’m imagining that picture with ea as death visiting Westwood and bioware etc.

  But to the left you see ea death is in its own room and opening the door is the figure of private equity. A bloodstained tzeentchian nightmare screeching from the void.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Starmer used land tax dodge to avoid inheritance tax⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  So he gave them something and the…canary… is sad he didn’t then have to pay inheritance tax on something he gifted when it came back to him?

  Shit stirring tbh. He could’ve just kept it the whole time but wanted his parents to feel ownership and independence. This isn’t a tax dodge it’s just how tax rules work.

  What a shame.

  I had to do a double take at the idea waypoint exists after they fired the entire team (by accident) a few years ago

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨HS2 was doomed to be a mess, say insiders - because of a 'problem in this country'⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a good article but can someone please tell the bbcthey don’t need to do click bait headlines

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Opinion: Keir Starmer’s “Island of strangers” speech was right⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  An article about how starmer was right to blame immigration for real problems like house building, employment apprenticeships etc by showing those real problems are real.

  No shit.

  Crazy idea but maybe he should’ve done a speech about building house? Even mcsweeny knows you get one point from a speech into the news, they choose immigration and lost the opportunity to get press on the others.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Stardew Valley dethrones Valve classic as Steam’s top-rated game⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No the game has a much, much worse anexoty time crunch in trying to 100% it before the end of year… 2 ( I think) when grandpa shrine first measures progress.

  Getting rid of the car fumes and tarmac wouldn’t hurt either

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK must 'actively prepare' for potential of war in the 'homeland', review warns⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I find it very difficult to believe Russia could resupply an invasion force, even if it could technically manage the initial push. I’ll have to read the article properly but the sea and air logistics involved, without invading every cou try between the UK and Russia, seem insurmountable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The UK failed grooming gang victims by not seeing ‘children as children’⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They were specifically worried about race riots.

  Look at the London riots years ago, that was caused by going after a gang member and escalates by gangs.

  The police forces in these areas were absolutely right to worry, it wasn’t just about causing offence but the real threat of organised criminal members of a community mobilising that community against the police.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The UK failed grooming gang victims by not seeing ‘children as children’⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Some of it still looks a little like corruption to me.

  There’s a huge report on this with more detail than anyone could reasonably read, somewhere way back in my comment history on Reddit. The way the problem was moved off to cross force specialised teams and then sat on is very odd, but could just be disorganisaton

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Telegram is indistinguishable from an FSB honeypot⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not that I don’t believe them, but anything coming from spooks has to be looked at a little sideways.

  Thanks for the reply. I just couldn’t figure out how they had enough intelligence to find all these telegram groups, maybe that’s easier for a nation state than I thought.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Telegram is indistinguishable from an FSB honeypot⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There were reports (claims I suppose) that the fsb were using telegram to organise the stochastic gig job sabotage across Europe.

  Joining a neo fash telegram group, pretending to be a rich neo fash who wants to help the cause but not risk themselves and paying people for putting up posters, damaging equipment etc.

  Does what has been found here shed any more light on that? I’d guess it would allow them to find these groups to target them very easily? That was the bit I couldn’t quite understand from the original report, if so this all makes more sense.

  Yeah, the section headlines are huge and that’s exactly right to make this readable while skipping past stuff that means nothing to me

  And by a modder turned dev, so, professionalisation? :)

  Though the way wube works the whole team will have been involved in some way. And they’re a student so it’s part of a fairly normal pipeline for gamedev.

  He had a career spanning dozens of stone cold classic movies, incredible performances all.

  And I will always first remember him corpsing over SPAAACE!!!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ubisoft Leamington UK, responsible for development of Star Wars Outlaws and Skull & Bones, officially closed.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Shadows is great tbh. Can’t speak about sales figures but it’s the most fun I’ve had with AC in ages. The jumps being ninja roll jumps is perfect.

  Valhalla was far too serious, a schlocky Japanese revenge flick is much more on target.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ninja sword owners will be paid to surrender weapons before ban⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  As a curved blade I think they’re all already banned, so this law does nothing to you

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ninja sword owners will be paid to surrender weapons before ban⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Collecting them isn’t much of a reason to be carrying them around.

  I don’t think the police would let you off if you claimed to have just bought it. I’d expect them to demand some kind of proof.

  The law is so when they raid a gang members home and find five swords they can do something other than compliment them on their awesome ninja sword collection.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Deep Rock Galactic roguelike dev says innovation for innovation's sake is too expensive to survive: "We're a studio of 50 people with bills to pay"⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The draw from Skyrim and other ES games is wandering around and stumbling on cool stuff.

  They both removed wandering by having you fly your ship to a planet, and removed the cool stuff by making the planets procgen.

  It’s good fun exploring the cities and space stations but then that’s it. They designed out the entire game in favour of more procgen content.
