Enshitified services don't die, they are too big to fail unfortunately.

In some ways though that was kind of part of the fun. You had to really want the song to be willing to do that lol

Subpoenaed for what, IP addresses? Then assuming he's using private trackers (hopefully he is) or a seedbox then they don't find him in any public swarms and that's the end of that lol

The enshitification is real!

I've found on StarCraft 2 you can just blame the enemy. You can say "omg you cheesy 10 pool garbage" or "you just mass mutas all day congrats" or "making roaches is a good skill to have" or "congrats you made siege tanks" etc. I was very competitive at one point but now I just don't really care much for it anymore. I'll still play ARAMs with friends but maybe not after this kernel-level anticheat lol unless it works through Geforce cloud then I guess I could keep playing it.

Generally though, I've started out gaming with single-player games and I've mostly gone back to single-player games, other than playing RuneScape (OSRS and open-source RSPS) games etc ofc.

Where the heck y’all live where the power goes out so often?

we’re powered entirely by renewable energy

That's probably why. For example, Hydro One uses old equipment and doesn't give a fuck about maintaining their aging equipment so it all just breaks catastrophically eventually, especially during bad weather. Transformers blow fairly often in bad weather tbh.

Medicine has been corrupted for just as long as video games, if not longer, unfortunately. These soulless husks in business suits are everywhere, unfortunately.

Many companies I've worked at are like this. No need to pay for QA, let the end users test it.

Nope, saving and loading works on that game (and pretty much every other game I tested), it's just you lose the date display in-game so you don't know when you really last saved.

I mean, Ghost Recon Wildlands which came out in 2017 for example has save dates written as a 32-bit date so it's prone to the 2038 bug, I set the date to 2040 and tested a bunch of software and while you can save the date overflows and shows as 1969. I bet there are still people using 32-bit dates even if unintentionally.

I guess I'm jaded because I've seen far too many times where it's the worker bees, the people who actually put the work in and get things done, getting the sharp end of the stick. I would be surprised if the 17% of employees Discord laid off actually included VPs.

Bold of you to think that the VP level employees don't get big raises in exchange for laying empoyees off.
