I was thinking just that while remembering the story. Its like a little socialism microcosm inside all these companies that have to deal with unions.

Doubt it since most jobs in US are non union and all those gains are pretty much law of the land now. Like 40 hr work week, OT after 40 hrs, holiday pay. No more children running machines, lol. In fact unions are terrible for the simple fact they promote people not based on meritocracy but...

Pretty much. Someone that was definitely and obviously not in the position to make the shit happen. Wasted tons of money and 10 yrs of peoples labor to make something that is like 25% done, lol.

Unions served their purpose at the dawn of the industrial revolution. They gave us the 40 hr work week, they took kids out of the workforce, they gave workers rights that are now pretty much enshrined in every business that hires workers. Now in current time frame they are a detriment to any...

Tons of single player games got crowdfunded.

I really dont understand what the problem is here with making mmos. Look at the big ones like wow, eq and others like DAOC and AO....They were all done at times where the tools to make them were shit, no one knew WTF they were doing because they were a new thing, way less people involved and yet...

I personally dont think NW will ever get sold....Why? Because its Amazon and they dont give a shit about a pittance of a few dozen million or whatever its worth.

Someone is going to buy this IP and finish it, right? RIGHT?

The more employees are in a corpo, the more of them can do nothing or very little and it will take them YEARS to actually find out that this dude was contributing absolutely nothing. Ive ran into these people all throughout my career since the early 90s. And the bigger the company is, the more...

That just looks like texture from paint roller to me. Honestly thats like 30 min job at most. and anyone can do it. You can texture the paint to match with a bigger pile roller after. Just paint the whole ceiling after texturing the spot a few times with paint before. I would def NOT be hiring...

If there is paint below the plaster hack job, yeah you need to score it, like I said its why it failed in the fist place. And that picture it sure looks like paint below the plaster. they prob put a skim coat over the ceiling because it looked like shit or whatever. If not scoring it because...

LOL a year? shit we go through one of those costco packs in like 5-6 months. Although if you have a lot of women in the house that might be cut down to 2-3 monts ea. Because woman use a shit ton of toilet paper. Yeah, but that stack would last us at least 2+ yrs.

If fixing this, I would score the spot with some tool, scratch the paper/paint off the spot with a screwdriver or something in some random pattern. Also remove the loose pieces that are not adhered to the ceiling around it. So the same shit does not happen in the future. Think of this as...

Yeah I never got the whole best game in the world vibes from this game while playing it. I mean it was OK? The combat system was kinda lacking it was basically parry or dodge to win, no other real combat tactics. The story? Yeah whatever, I guess if youre into the story over everything else in...

Meh, I dont think so, not yet. Like I said, lots of stuff just not lining up for AI to rule over us yet. LLMs are not AI they are just another tool to do clerical work. Just one example, those machines I talked about above? Yeah, they have supply chains that go over 5000 deep all over the world...
