A plastic asteroid must have hit the Earth!

There used to be a joke that they'd find that layer of beige and blue that every computer peripheral was made of at one point, and be like "Ah, 1997".

I turned off ads on mine.

By turning it face down.

Are there many left where you are? The UK has one plant left, and we had to take it over so it didn't close completely.

I guess it's quite handy to have a steel plant if war breaks out and you're not relying on China for it all...

I don't think you'll find a public company right now that isn't balls deep in the slop machines, desperately trying to offload staff in favour of machines that can't do the jobs.

Almost like they're not losing it, but stealing it.

I'll just wait for the movies to come out ten years later telling us exactly how they all lost our money again.

How quickly Lemmy turns on the EU when they do something you don't like. "Vegan burger" doesn't tell me what's in it. Could be fucking sawdust.

I don't make games, but fine. Baldurs Gate 3 (PS5 co-op) and Skyrim (Xbox 360) had more crashes than any games I've ever played.

Did that stop either of them being highly rated top selling games? No. Did it stop me enjoying them? No.

Quality feels important, but past a certain point, it really isn't. Luck, knowing the market, maneuverability. This will get you most of the way there. Look at Fortnite. It was a wonky building game they quickly cobbled into a PUBG clone.

The sad thing is that velocity pays the bills. Quality it seems, doesn't matter a shit, and when it does, you can just patch up the bits people noticed.
