they work so hard to make a product that can rival windows vista. i wonder when they will move past it and surpass what we had 20 years ago 😴

oh my God another sequel to the biggest franchises with plenty of sequels? what a fierce and independent leader

honestly it's inevitable if the whole industry is optimizing for "engagement". basically less games with more mtx. you didn't need many devs to create paypig slop

Jesus Christ the level of basedness is completely off the charts. This dude is the only deserving billionaire.

it's what happens whenever the wealth has been extracted successfully... no one can afford anything anymore

I dislike the attention stuff like this draws to piracy. I do quite like clowning on games that do this stupid early/late release to ruin the old-school launch day fun and make some kids aware that their parents are brokebois. These new business models just bring out the worst.

 

I know this might come across as a very impractical expectation but I wanted to hear from people who have a fulfilling career and also a sense for privacy: How did you do it?

I've recently had trouble finding a new job in the tech sector. So far I've been doing alright without LinkedIn, just directly applying to companies, but it seems less successful now. So I thought what the hell, might have to do this after all. After I've made an account I got quickly banned for logging in once from a VPN connection. Only way to get unbanned is to give my government ID to them - but that really rubs me the wrong way (so many leaks of IDs recently and all).

I'm remaining banned for the moment, contemplating what impact this might have on my career. It gives me a fair bit of anxiety, considering that my sense of where my boundaries are seems to be deemed unacceptable by the monopoly of international job markets. Should I just give in and send my ID? Am I delusional?

As always, I appreciate the discourse of this wonderfully decentralized community we have here on lemmy! ☺️
