Adding to that, sometimes those lines are things you know of and would like to not cross, but are impossible to avoid.

I have excellent news: you can also not buy games from those companies too.
The russian people still deserve to earn a wage, to pay for their necessities
While I can’t say that Saber for sure works this way, but every studio I know of pays a salary, and the sales of the game don’t factor in (with the exception of bonuses and maybe shady practices around contracted QA). The article even states they are busy working on their next game, so those people are currently being paid.
I don’t believe anyone is calling out the employees in this situation. I think the difference is agency. I can choose whether or not to spend money on the game, thereby choosing whether or not to send money to the Russian government. A Russian employee does not have that choice, much like people in the US don’t have a choice to pay taxes that fund a genocide. People buying leisure items do have that choice, though.
This is not about the politics of the company or whether or not the people support the government. Influence is not the point. This is about material support to the Russian government. Money spent on the game goes to the Russian government in the form of taxes. This blurb says it in plain text:
To put it crudely, an average gamer, who buys Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 for $59.99, helps the company to fund the Russian army with almost $12
Kinda what I figured. I was going to suggest a shared mailbox that could be unlocked with a password that is behind some kind of time gate, but I found this site:
I know nothing about it, but seems to do what you need
When I was there actual salaries were lower, but they gave out a lot of RSUs. Good ole golden handcuffs
I may be under thinking this, but couldn’t you just schedule an email to be sent on that date using whichever email provider/client you use?
I don’t know if I would call it horror, but Dredge is fantastic with creeping dread
They tend to hire a lot of recent graduates, at least when I was there. People that simply don’t know better.
Amazon is kinda known for burn and churn. They like have the appearance of a good place to work by not having a dress code, letting people bring dogs in, and being the kind of place that has beer on tap. None of it is worth the burnout though
We have that he was banned from twitch. When somebody bringing in that much money for Twitch, you know what they did was bad. Keep defending a shitass though. I’m sure that’ll go great for you
Unknown reason that have not been stated. I was 100% speculating, but that does not make it not super gross and creepy.
He went to either Rumble or Kick. Not sure which, but both are pretty heavy into low moderation.
Edit: Never mind, he is on YouTube but without monetization
He was DMing a minor on twitch and there were sexual messages involved. From what I understand Twitch’s law enforcement consultant did not refer it to law enforcement for unknown reasons and they just banned him instead. Probably just creep behavior and nothing technically illegal. Still fucked up, but nothing that would get him arrested. He did not end up meeting with the victim AFAIK.
Yup. Sorry if it came across as me defending the bill. It is trash. We need actual data protections
I don’t think you’re saying it is not, but I want to add that all social media is bad for kids. This bill targets a Chinese company, but all big social media companies collect and sell user data to an alarming degree. We don’t need a TikTok ban, we need data protections.
Not sure if I am reading this wrong, but I think it is just the one that did the cheating and game owner that get banned
If a family member gets banned for cheating while playing your copy of a game, you (the game owner) will also be banned in that game. Other family members are not impacted.
Emphasis mine
There really isn’t a single hand writing in the US. I have not seen anyone write like the images, and mine is very different. I assume it is like in most countries that use the Latin alphabet
You can choose your IRL family too, just takes a little more work to drop the shitty people.
$240 with no fans. Not that I will need a new case anytime soon, but that is ridiculous for a narrow 011 clone
