And a huge number of art assets in general. These days in the AAA industry the artists work much faster than the designers and programmers, so by the time the designers and programmers have finished their part, the art team has had time to make 3-4 times as many assets as they really need.

NOC technician. I monitor the internet infrastructure for a school district, remotely troubleshoot networking equipment, dispatch field resources, set up maintenance projects, coordinate with vendors, that sorta thing.

Even Stadia had the courtesy to send everyone full lifetime refunds.

"seeing you hanging out with me" doesn't feel very natural

Otherwise this is really great, the last panel alone is a great reaction imagine.

No disc on PC is totally different because the platform is more free. We have multiple store fronts, some are DRM free, some come with free compatability tools, we can install games free of a store, back data up to a hard drive and play that same game on a different PC all offline, we could burn our entire library to SD cards or CDs and produce our own physical media, we can use a million combinations of hardware and operating systems, etc.

Locking out discs also hurts game stores and gives consumers worse value for money since they can't trade in games. Super shitty when there is only one digital storefront

TF2 is way up there for me. I've played on and off since launch and accumulated 2500 hours. I think lifetime I might have gotten value from the game because I sold off a bunch of items that appreciated.

Matthew Broderick killed 2 people while drunk driving in 1987 and got away with it

Edit: he was not drunk, he swerved into oncoming traffic. He was in northern Ireland and his reason for doing so is unknown by his account, he can't remember anything about it.
