The funny thing is, the original Cosby allegations/investigation were in 2005. By 2013, most normal people had totally forgotten about it, until new allegations surfaced in 2015. They really did go out of their way to own themselves, by making a meme out of an 8-year old scandal, inserting...

Well at least they waited until they had concrete self-owning evidence.

The fact that it's called the Cosby Club/Cosby Suite implies that the whole point of the club/suite is to get women intoxicated past the point of consent.

The prettiest girl on an otherwise boring floor is an automatic 8 at minimum, no matter how ugly she is.

Yeah but nobody is getting trouble for gossiping. They're getting in trouble for harassment, assault, etc.

I don't think the women had a Cosby room.

*after getting caught and sued.

And finding out it's filled with misogynists and seditionists.

This part I agree with. These are not the tier sets we were promised.

The law has full exemptions for high performance gaming PCs: It seems like the issue with the Alienware specifically is that it isn't really expandable, so it doesn't get all the exemptions that most other pre-built gaming PCs normally would, under the category of "high expandability"...

No, they started long before that. He was investigated in 2005. That's why there was the 2005-2006 deposition. That's also why he was able to get off, because statements made during that investigation were used against him, despite the prosecutor at the time saying he would be exempt from...

Thicc Merfolk Mommy:

The law seems to be just plain written wrong. It's like they were trying to regulate office desktops idle power usage (a really good fucking idea since those things are idle like 70% of the day) and went off the fucking rails somewhere. EDIT: Nope, turns out the law is written correctly, Dell...

I mean, the WoW story has been fucking garbage the entire time. 90% of villains get a redemption arc, or were only evil because they had X artifact. Anything that's not garbage is the exception that makes the rule.

I think it's just become fun to pile on Blizzard. There's nothing fundamentally wrong with this expac, the only issue is the absolutely fucking glacial pace of patches.

That's why the lawsuit isn't against individuals, it's against the company for allowing shit like this to happen constantly, for over a decade. While individual stories against individual people might be exaggerated, basically everyone involved, including the officers of the company when you...

You are almost as big of a know-nothing asshole as Foler, yet Foler is clearly trying to post as a humorous, one might even say Trump-ean persona, while you are just a stupid asshole.

Nobody reports because getting a new job is hard. "I'll report when I have a new job lined up." Then you finally get to the new job and just want all that baggage left behind. It's too much stress to file a civil suit. Example: I haven't sent a demand letter for the 20k in back overtime my...

The plaintiff is the State of California, not the women. The case basically accuses them of creating a workplace where harassment was common and went unpunished, and the response from Blizzard has basically been "yeah, but we've changed so much in the past 2 years, we promise!"

It's Amazon. I'm sure the underlying infrastructure is amazing. And I'm sure the error-reporting is amazing too, on an application level and an infrastructure level. That means every day they're getting tons of logs with crashes, exceptions, errors, warnings, etc. And every day they're...

Isn't it an Open Beta?

Not sure how you can say that the Maw wasn't a full zone. It has quests, achievements, secrets, etc. So that makes 5.

I'm talking in a general sense, not in the specific case. My point is that if you bring shit from the internet, posted under pseudonimity, into someone's place of work, you're a piece of shit.

My point is that any pro-tips from people who post on this forum about what not to do online is someone who is really throwing stones in glass houses.

She was originally hired as a CS rep, why would you expect an entry-level CS rep to have anything beyond a two-year degree?

Remember when some asshole on this forum started bringing stuff from the internet into someone's real life, and causing problems for them at their job? And how the entire forum unanimously thought that person was a piece of shit? This is not different from that.

The person worked at the company in question from 06-12, I doubt their Twitter bio looked like that 9 years ago.

And you shouldn't be doing any of that at work, particularly to subordinates. Not sure what century you think you're living in.

Just get a third 27" monitor.

TOO SOON.

The funny thing is, 9.1 would actually be pretty fun if the loot system wasn't so stingy and broken. Do they really think the number of people who unsub quit because they got all their loot for the season is greater than the people who unsub because the loot they want never fucking drops?

Why would the police be involved? This is a civil suit. Sexual harassment is not considered a criminal offense in the US. Reporting to the police does nothing unless there's actual assault.

I think you have some cause and effect backwards here. The people who've been quietly leaving over the past 2-3 years were probably leaving because they knew this was coming, because HR told them to leave on their own terms, or because the party was over and they were bored. And WoW has been...

My point is that you haven't made any case for any wrongdoing from the girls. Being naive is not a crime, exploiting people for their naivety can be, especially if it was done in an institutional manner and the management charged with handling the wrongdoing chose to do nothing.

Tattoos are painful and expensive, two things I really don't like, and 90% of them look terrible.

I don't know what you're trying to say with this here. Not being savvy enough to handle a sudden influx of attention is not a crime. Not being savvy enough to realize you were only hired to give the men at work something to look at/flirt with/pursue/grope is not a crime. Sexual harassment is.

In their defense they're not actually attention-whores per-se, they're just nerdy late-bloomers who were completely ignored in high school, where they sat at lunch with the other honor-roll girls who liked anime and cats, continued to be effectively invisible through most of college, and then...

Making me lead PvP designer.

There's a 32 inch version if you really want.

My current place of employment? 0, I'm fulltime remote. My previous place of employment, I shaved my head the second week and did just about everything to make myself as ugly as possible, project an aura of being absolutely no-fun, and still had to implement a 2-strike rule, which was never...
