I mean when you’ve got an existential election and the options are a barely functional geezer who will just do whatever his staff suggest and stupid Hitler your choice is going to be a forgone conclusion. It’s not a choice between two shitty candidates, it’s a choice between one shitty candidate and literal fascism. You either want fascism or you don’t. All these “undecided” voters are either hilariously ignorant, closet fascists, or both.

I mean it’s not a secret. It’s lead. There’s lead in the water down there.

I know this is a joke, but that would require them to put actual effort into their shit ass slow ui that’s had the same stupid bugs for the past 15 years and still doesn’t have a search function that gives you what you fucking searched for.

If the irrational hatred of gay people is similar at all, these people are closeted trans people inflicting their hatred of themselves and their own feelings on the world. Probably.

Reading between the lines here, someone is fucking with the market on purpose. Drop the prices so low the competition goes out of business trying to keep up, then jack up the prices to make it all back multiple times over. Businesses don’t drop the price of products for no reason.

Were? Hmm. Were. Not mutually exclusive with are. Yes were fits.

The many flaws of d&d is why I strongly prefer gurps.

Only if it’s plugged in while you’re opening it… Remember kids, always unplug appliances before you disassemble them.

Yeah. She’s not a good digging plastic bimbo. That guy with his hot wife who presumably loves him for who he is clearly lost.

Yo ho yo ho a repeat of history for me.

I’m sorry to hear that. How long do you have?

It’s the trusted platform module which I know almost nothing about but I’m sure is fucking stupid. My monster of a desktop from 2018 also can’t run win11, and the only reason is my cpu is missing the tpm that it requires.

Wait people were getting aid? I thought we all got a couple thousand dollars and thoughts and prayers… That shit dried up in one month.

You were the chosen one! It was said you would destroy the cancer, not cause them!

Because they didn’t do it as an investment. Destroying the platform was the point.

You didn’t necessarily fail if they aren’t into it. In the words of Jean-Luc Picard “It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not weakness, that is life.” Some people just don’t mesh, and that’s ok. You don’t need to put pressure on yourself to like or be liked.

I mean fixing these things can definitely increase sales, but you’re right not in the sense that they are directly marketable. The thing that makes games really blow up is word of mouth, people recommending them to their friends, and you get that best by making a game with overall quality. It’s basically a given at this point that Bethesda games are buggy messes that get fixed by modders. Every time you have a major bug, game crash, or save corruption it takes you out of the world and forces you to remember you’re playing a game that barely works, which makes you like it less. All of this hurts sales, if not today in the future. So yeah, they probably aren’t prioritized by management, but management is wrong. They often are.

Yeah to be honest what strikes me the most about companies like Bethesda is just how little they’ve improved over the decades. There’s nothing stopping them from making major improvements like removing loading screens, adding vehicles finally (I wonder if the ships are really a hat like the train in fallout 3), fixing the buggy ass collisions and physics, or any number of dumb shits they just keep leaving in game after game. It really speaks to the institutional inertia and spaghetti mess their code must be.

I also loved starbound. My problem was the late game became very gamey, with the linear planet tier progression to get better materials. Once I got past the progression and beat the final boss there was nothing fun left to do, even with all the base building stuff they put in.

You could change it to git commit . to add and commit everything. But just in case you weren’t up to date, you should probably do

git commit .

git pull -s ours

git push

For maximum chaos.
