Worth noting that harvesting organs from non-consenting people would also be logical from a business perspective, provided it were legal. Free high value produce!

Not to put words in the mouth of the previous commenter, but logic is an extremely different argument compared to their argument of ethics- I don’t think they were confused about why it happened but rather concerned that it happened despite the ethical issues around (potentially, Im not familiar with the Rocket League situation) removing a game from a platform that many people bought it solely for :)

Regardless, I think it makes sense for people to be upset as, to your point, the most logical business decisions often run counter to the ethical or emotional considerations of the customers.

Whoever put so many pizza tables in the box needs more praise! No excuse for a cheesy lid

This sounds like how you get a resonance cascade… Experiments so powerful they make the sky glow as only our star can!

I enjoyed the back and forth over the topic, personally, but that initial video of his felt… weak. I didn’t hate it but it did make me want to unsubscribe. It felt like a technicality and like a trick more than anything, to me.

The practicalities of how two nearby parallel wires work versus one big loop wasn’t the question posed, it was based on length (As I remember from watching it once). Felt like a ‘gotcha’ moment with no gotcha.

Who’d have thought that a work force with a large immigrant population would diminish when we kick all the immigrants out 🙃 we’ll still have medical staff, despite a large portion of them being from Eurasia, we’ll still have people willing to do the jobs we don’t want to because the UK is British and strong now, right? Right guys? We can have blue passports back… And… we’ll make our own trade deals! With America, and Australia! We’re still important, aren’t we?

I hate this country I live in, sometimes. Our politicians and older generations don’t seem to realise the last 200 years of history have happened.

Ah, a common mistake to make. It’s not ‘re-ddit,’ Im pretty sure it comes from ‘reddi-t’ as in “Ready Tea” but like many early 2000s websites they tried to make it sound more approachable, so it’s just ‘reddi-t’ as your cup of tea will be cool enough to drink by the time it’s transmitted all your data.

I recently left a job at 1 year in and while I was asked about it the ol’ “Overworked and underappreciated” response worked well.

I started looking for new jobs about 10 months in and felt I could be really picky about my destination because I was already secure. Having a job gives you a much better position to negotiate from, even if it’s only in your own head. I also found my former job much more bearable while also doing interviews elsewhere- it’s a lot easier to laugh about colleage troubles or 25 year old technical debt when they won’t be your problems soon.

Oh no :( Now the game is even more emotionally charged, I suppose.

One I’ve not seen mentioned but made me bawl my eyes out is ‘Presentable Liberty’ Im not sure about the remake, but the original was pretty short and was gripping, despite the low level of action.
