The deal includes the teams working on the mentioned properties, but doesn’t go into what IPs are changing hands. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if all Tom Clancy series are lumped together

If anyone else read this headline and thought about how busy the ACLU is going to be this term, here is the page where you can provide financial support.

I’m sure the Dems will get around to round 3 after the midterms, but unless there’s a staggeringly large blue wave, it’s not going to go anywhere that time either.

We’re a large financial institution who got dinged to hell in a recent regulatory audit. The pace of change around here could aptly be described as glacial. It was a big culture shock coming here from an MSP after years of Small/Medium Biz roles.

An LGBT person might decide that’s an acceptable risk if it allows them the chance to deter or prevent violence against them from the increased number of empowered bigots walking around in Trump’s America

Sigh. I’m on the team that manages the phone and IM platform for my organization. We are on Cisco Jabber which is admittedly super outdated at this point. Around covid times, we got a new hot-shit CEO who replaced most of our upper management. The new CTO looked at our mature and relatively painless Cisco environment, heard our pleas to let us upgrade to WebEx Teams (Cisco’s replacement for Jabber) and said, “Nope. I had MS Teams at my last job, and I want that here.”

Roll forward five years and the CEO is long since kicked out, the CTO just left, and we’re right around the corner of our AD/Exchange team FINALLY moving us to M365 and giving us access to the tenant so we can START learning what this monster is going to take to manage.

Fucking C-suites…

I hope you’re not referring to this fight between Keith David and Roddy Piper. First, Keith David’s never been a wrestler, and second, it’s a hilariously awkward, unnecessary, and drawn out fight that deserves love, not scorn.

Was there some other fight with a pro wrestler in the movie that I forgot about? It’s been a while since I saw it and didn’t see any wrestlers I recognized in the main cast.

The first MK movie was the archetypal “It’s good… for a video game adaptation” movie for a long time. Luckily now we have great adaptations (not necessarily movies though) to point to that stand on their own merits.

But yeah, there’s always a part of me that will have fond memories of MK and the JCVD Street Fighter movie. Hell, add Double Dragon to that list.
