It’s hard to be critical of something that hasn’t been released yet. All anybody had to go off of were statements from the developers, until the product was actually released and people could get their hands on it.

I can’t wait to read his obituary.

Someone please tell me more about this moth.

Tom Cruise also insists on doing literally insane stunts himself when even a relatively minor I jury could delay production for weeks/months putting everyone out of a job…

IIRC, Cruise had to basically create his own insurance agency because nobody else would open up a policy for him, due to exactly this reason.

Here’s a better article, from the same source, with actual details. I’m not sure why they bothered posting this other version that doesn’t say what sort of threats or actions the man allegedly did, when they already posted a version of the story yesterday with those details.

Thumbnail definitely had me expecting something else.

Hyperfixated Sushi

I hope it catches fire.

So Roblox is the only of those companies that can handle proper region failover if us-east-1 shits the bed?

Either that, or the reports stopped coming in since it’s a school day.

Yeah, good idea! After all, marijuana is so dangerous, unlike guns.

Why?

A lot of the affected services seem to be partially functional right now. It looks like the AWS network that went offline is one managing real-time analytics data, mostly.

It’s not necessarily about competition, it’s about visibility. If I create something and I want to share it with people, that means I want people to see it. It doesn’t necessarily mean “I want people to see this more than other posts”, just “I’d rather not be posting into the void”.

For instance, I make YouTube Shorts for a game I play. I don’t post them on Lemmy anymore, because the Lemmy community for the game only has 60 subscribers, most of whom aren’t even active accounts anymore. The highest-upvoted thread in the community has 47 votes, the second-highest only has 9. This translates to effectively nobody on Lemmy seeing the videos I made, because this small, slow-paced community’s posts get drowned out by everything else.

It’s a signal-to-noise issue. There are some smaller communities I’d like to keep an eye on, but the posts from those communities get drowned out by the more active ones. I miss a lot of posts that I would have liked to have seen because of this.

Whatever you do, you shouldn’t accidentally spill saltwater on it. That could destroy a very expensive piece of spying equipment, and would be a terrible, tragic accident that could interfere with the advance of nazism.

You should check out Embark Studios’ (ARC Raiders dev) other game, The Finals. Literally the most innovative FPS I’ve ever played, it completely reinvents the competitive shooter genre.

Big if true

Good idea! How do I get past the boarded-up doors, though?

First, why the fuck are ICE doing home searches now? Based on an ANONYMOUS TIP? With information that was over 2 years out of date? Where’s the fucking warrant?

Second, around my place, our pets are our family members. If you come into my home and shoot any of my family, you’d better damn well shoot me next, and quickly, because otherwise I’m going to fucking murder you where you stand.
