Considering these people are in charge of the only systems capable of regulating them, yeah probably not. And if you won’t sell them they’ll force you into foreclosure and buy you up even cheaper like JD Vance’s Acretrader has been doing to farms.
KOTOR I and especially II (with lost levels restoration mod) and Fallout NV.
Vulture capitalism. These VCs come in and take out a huge loan to buy these established companies, then the company becomes responsible for paying the loan, and the company also pays the VC “management fees” then when the company is a hollow husk of what it used to be they start selling off assets and closing stores. Kmart, Sears, Toys R’ Us, Circuit City, Party City, Payless, etc etc etc. This is how Thiel made his Billions and what Vance did before pretending to be a politician. Lately they’ve been going after the funeral home industry and veterinary clinics.
“Look, man. Whatever you say is correct. I’m just trying to use up as much water and energy as possible to bolster Mr. Altman’s stock portfolio. Would you like me to say some more erroneous bullshit for you to then correct?”
Damn employees expecting to be fairly compensated for their labor. Don’t they know they’re literally stealing from the executive’s bonuses?
Oh yeah a lot of the jokes both haven’t aged well and were bad for their time as well.
Great show, loved the show, would have been better without the premise.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•2K confirms layoffs at Civilization developer FiraxisEnglish
16·2 months agoI’ve got
hundredsthousands (lol) of hours in Civ VI alone. I’ve paid for copies for PC, Switch, and Android (and I’m cheap as hell so that’s really saying something). I played Civ VII for maybe an hour or two and then never came back to it. I shouldn’t have to tell you that a Civ game you can willingly put down is not a good Civ game. Aside from the game just not being very fun to begin with, the transition between ages is so clunky, it just completely ruins all of your planning and the pacing of the game.With this news I saw some DLC had been released since I tried the game and thought ‘oh great, maybe they fixed it a bit or added new mechanics.’ Nope, just more fluff. Never again, Firaxis. You will never get another dime from me.

3·5 months agoLol, I swear I posted mine at least slightly before yours. I was looking up an image of the original hat to reply to another user in that thread when I saw our joke.
And besides…

*But you can have half the upvotes this post received if you feel wronged.

3·5 months agoThat is truly amazing.
Finally a decent gift idea for all the maga chuds in our lives.
I believe it’s a hat making fun of this popular hat (wtf???):

But your loose translation works for either.
So it’s a masters with practical experience.

Well yes and no. The tiny hands will be that of a robot we (the slave class) will control remotely.
