I keep joking that we should make video games mandatory for millionaires when this subject comes up but I legit think that playing some grindy game or management games would make this type of people less greedy to some degree, because at their core they appeal to our seemingly primal urge of always hoarding more resources.
Can confirm, grandpa was a WW2 vet (+ a few of the postcolonial wars that followed). He used to say that soldiers morale hinges on wine and cigarettes.
Also he died of lung cancer after surviving all that shit, including being a POW for 4+ years in extremely shitty conditions in Cambodia
Are you sure about that ? I don’t know that much about these kind of dynamics because I am not a soulless capitalist ghoul, but I remember reading that Kotick actually did that kind of stuff mostly by himself and was quite good at it (which did translate into more money being made, which probably kept investors happy and cemented his position)
Including cooling because casings actually absorb quite a lot of the heat generated by the propellant iirc (which is then easily removed from the weapon by ejecting the spent casing)
Oh look it’s the thing everyone said would happen way back when Activision bought Blizzard
Joke’s on you, I would slide it down all the way to zero as soon as I leave home
Well, if dodos had a Glock they would not have been hunted to extinction now, wouldn’t they ?

Sounds like he was this close 🤏 to realizing that politics isn’t sports nor entertainment there… Although to be fair, his base certainly seems to treat it that way
I mean, considering how some of them can struggle with ice cubes, you’d need one hell of a (consumer grade) blender to effectively get rid of a body
As a professional gamedev : good. Except if they aren’t tackling similar issues in online gambling (am at work so I didn’t read the article)

But just know that I’m order to set it up, you have to login with your account on their computer at some point to enable the family sharing feature
I doubt it, because I think that’s literally how it used to work
We have one at work (office cats ftw). I don’t know the model, but knowing the owner I’m positive they didn’t get a cheapo version. In this case it’s worth the money because it does a fairly good job at mixing the litter which seems to help quite a lot with the smell (it gets noticeably better a few minutes after it’s done its thing), since no one is gonna empty it during the day.
