Phew! So they just have to make good enough games to avoid two complete flops in a row. Which is impossible but feel free to try and argue that it’s possible.

It’s also an extremely privileged view. “Just have lots of money and you’ll be fine lol! Dumb studios who don’t make enough money to weather flops are bad!”

It’s the equivalent of the rich billionaires saying if you want a house just work hard and buy one. It’s not hard! Why are the poor people complaining?

It would be nice to not have Layoffs but it’s just reality it will happen. If you think it’s impossible you are a child or are completely blinded by corporate interests.

Yes. See my other comments. It’s just basic logic.

Well luckily every game studio only ever makes successful games and Larian will never make a flop. Right?

Just like other great studios like CPDR. Or Blizzard… Oh…

I swear people are just idiots or have zero memory.

Surprisingly narrow minded and incorrect viewpoint.

Layoffs are inevitable, including at Larian studios. Otherwise they’re saying all video game studios just have linear growth forever which is stupid.

People downvoting have no idea what they’re talking about lol. One flop and Larian Studios will do mass lay-offs like every other studio. And no studio will make continual success after success.

So Tesla’s entire strategy Elon was working was just abandoned.

Continues down the pathway that Tesla is just going to fade to irrelevance.

Welcome to the world of business. First time here huh? Might wanna strap in, this is pretty harmless when it comes to capitalists and its by-products.

It’s probably far more common than most people realize. Open source software doesn’t automatically make it secure, and in many cases can be less secure than closed source as it’s just one or two people doing it for free.

Much easier to be tempted to do something wrong or to get others to help in and take the weight off.

Hah I’m much the same. Makes the whole 60fps minimum argument laughable when you’re playing games nowhere near that and completely enjoying them.

And someone recently told me the Xz exploit doesn’t matter because no developer is stupid enough to install beta releases to prod systems lol.

Laziness and/or low skills leads to a lot of IT failures.

“What do you mean everyone is equal and I can’t just pay to get ahead? This game sucks, nothing like real life”

There’s plenty of products without subscriptions… Including your doorbell example.

Maybe you haven’t actually researched this enough?

The real question is why the fuck is this guy passing for two password managers if not more, especially if he isn’t even using one?

No I wouldn’t pay for the services of someone else when I can get it for free.

I’d pirate it if I could though?

Gmail is still good for me at least. Does everything I want, doesn’t need new features and I don’t see ads or anything.

What more would I get from someone else? I’m not going to pay for privacy at end of day.

This is why I don’t use Linux. Insecure as fuck.

Yep, you’re not wrong.

Hahahahaha.

In 5 years time they’ll whittle the pledges down a bit.

In 10 they’ll remove it altogether.

I get wanting a safe space from persecution.

But echo chambers are dangerous and can really distort your reality. I personally find going from a safe space/echo chamber to reality very jarring and much more conflicting than from a relatively safe space with some conflict to reality.

By shutting it all out I’d argue you are risking hurting yourself unless you can guarantee a safe space in every aspect of life which is very difficult.
