Google Flat-Out Refuses to Bargain With Workers, Prompting YouTube Music Strike
  • Sorry about coming off as rude but all I wanted was an answer why they'd be easily replaceable because that's the only way Google can willynilly just fire the entire staff. Otherwise the premise doesn't make sense.

    But you're probably six feet deep on a five foot pole so apologies probably won't do too much for your.

  • Google Flat-Out Refuses to Bargain With Workers, Prompting YouTube Music Strike
  • I was basing my question on the plan how Google uses contract work. Well it's fucking hard to just throw that staff away if it's not easy or what? Try to fucking give two seconds of thought before being an asshole fucking shit head.

    My question was about them not being easily replaceable, like that other comment seemed to describe.

    Have a shit fucking life.

  • Shopping App TEMU reported as Spyware by Grizzly Research group
  • Tried browsing Temu on mobile browser. Fucking impossible. They push the app so hard that the website is basically unusable after few clicks. Compared to them, Reddit's gentle reminder feels like a favor.

    Anyway, turned me off totally from the site. If someone wants me to use their app when I'm potentially a paying customer, website or not, seems really suspicious. Seems like my instincts were correct.

  • Original ‘Daredevil’ Showrunner Calls Out ‘Disney Scam’ of Naming New Series ‘Daredevil: Born Again’: It ‘Resets Contract Terms Back to First Season’
  • Don't you think this show will be a little more than a vague reference or a quick cameo? I think you're making a really disingenuous argument here.

    And those cameos or shared-universe things should be negotiated anyway and probably are. It actually is also somewhat helpful for the show to share the universe with another popular show, otherwise they wouldn't do that. But this isn't that. This is them going "you liked Netflix's Daredevil, so here, enjoy". That's their selling point. It's not from the makers of Daredevil, it's the same Daredevil.

  • Microsoft addresses the huge Xbox leaks: here’s Phil Spencer’s full memo
  • It's more like a default platform seeing as even former PlayStation exclusives are slowly getting a PC release as well. And I did call Starfield Xbox/PC exclusive, not just Xbox.

    It's probably not the word to describe what's getting released where and stems from marketing but it's commonly used in gaming so most understand its meaning.

  • Microsoft addresses the huge Xbox leaks: here’s Phil Spencer’s full memo
  • Why do people behave as if Starfield was the first game not released on PlayStation?

    Who is doing that? It's just blatantly obvious that it would've been released on PlayStation without Microsoft meddling and their games sell a shitload, I mean Skyrim has been chugging along over a decade now. So I'm not really sure how Starfield is irrelevant to Ms buying shit conversation.

    It's not what being an exclusive means (let not get into linguistics here, I mean strictly the gaming industry term). I agree this specific case was anticompetitive but framing it as an exclusive just weakens this point in my opinion and allows to shift the debate away from it.

    Away from what? Everyone knows what it means -- or maybe I don't, please enlighten me in that case.

    Idk I just thought this was weird so I decided to share it.

    Indiana Jones has been rocking the same attire for 30+ years. Do you know anyone similar in real life?

    It's actually 57 years if you start the counting from when he got the hat in The Last Crusade's prologue in 1912 to the newest one that takes place in 1969, and 34 years if you start counting from the first chronological movie, The Temple of Doom that took place in 1935.

    Anyway, I made the realization that it's a bit ridiculous and made me curious if anyone knows good stories about people who've been using the same get-up for a long, long time in real life.

    Why are orcas attacking boats? Hint: It’s not a war on humans.

    This is almost certainly fad behavior that would stop if we left them alone.

    Hey cooks, what's ya cooking?

    What's the best thing right now or what you're getting into next?

    I'm thinking about giving poke bowls a try. They're pretty good in warm weather but I've never made them myself. Seems like a good quick bite as most things can be prepared in advance. Anything good tips I should know about?
