CD Projekt announced on October 5 that the expansion starring Idris Elba cost a hefty 275 million Polish Zloty (around $62.7 million) to develop and approximately 95 million Polish Zloty (around $21.6 million) to market.

I’m not saying repairing and adding missing functionality isn’t a good size portion of that cost, but calling it a $125 million cost based on the cost of the expansion and marketing which were already planned regardless of how well the initial release did is miss-leading at best.

Those all sounds like generic automated emails to me.

Why not then post the personalized emails? This particular email just doesn’t look incriminating to me. Sure it is POSSIBLE that someone at Reddit specifically added him to the email list, but that’s hardly the most likely explanation.

ITT: People complaining about an automated email that gets send to a huge largely uncurated mailing list. This is so very obviously not an email someone at reddit personally addressed to Andrew Tate, let alone personally selected him to be added to the mailing list.

Seriously, people, there’s plenty to complain about without making up new stuff.

True, but given that:

• The animal was considered healthy days prior.
• No details were released as to the cause of death.
• This happened in Brazil.

I’d say the odds are that it was human fault.

Aaaand it went extinct…

Good job humans.

I can’t wait to try out part 3 for 2 hours before deciding this still isn’t for me.

I want a good and immersive Jedi game so bad. These games just feel like you’re in an amusement park that’s channelling the game you want but not really trying to deliver it, it’s just a vehicle to get to the next bouncy mushroom or conveniently placed wall jump.

Nowadays, when I see news about some new law that’s gonna ruin the web I just have a sad chuckle. That ship has sailed. And they didn’t even need shitty laws to do it.

“Consistent starting pay results in consistent staffing and better customer service while also creating new opportunities for associates to gain new skills from experience across the store and lay the groundwork for their career regardless of where they start,”

Ok miss PR person. Please explain your rationale cause that shit makes no sense.

To be fair people who pay thousands are probably perfectly fine with Starfield, although they may have to be satisfied with 120fps instead of 240fps.

The ones mainly hurting are the ones with similar budgets as console gamers. And console gamers are hardly unfamiliar with performance issues.

Being a pc gamer has much more to do with what ecosystem you get to tap into, rather than how much you’re spending.

I’ve also noticed the opposite effect. Where if a movie is leaning into being plain and easy to watch you’ll have critics rating it down cause they wanted it to do some artsy stuff. Definitely feels like critics are more on the artsy side of the scale, which is fine but doesn’t always align with what I’m looking for.

Yeah I definitely assign more value to the audience reviews. Critics are mostly useless, unless you identify ones that align with your personal taste.

Movie / TV reviews are such a shit show. I rarely find myself agreeing with the averaged out rating.

These days I’ll just make sure the rating is above say 30 and beyond that I’ll rely on trailers and reading actual reviews. But finding new movies and tv shows to watch is quite a chore as a result.

I hope someday soon AI can be employed to give you real personalized recommendations that don’t suck. But realistically it’ll just be more shitty algorithms meant to serve the interests of the highest bidder.

Interesting. I searched for YouTube tv on my android tv but can only find the base YouTube app. Sounds like you’re saying this is some separate sort of app? How do you obtain it?

Edit: not available in Canada. Well that explains our very different experiences.

Gotcha, lucky you that the algorithm seems to align with your viewing habits. For me I’d say I easily waste the quoted 10 minutes to find something to watch on YouTube.

What’s your secret? Youtube just keeps recommending me the same shit. Their algorithm just makes it so that you’re rarely seeing new stuff.

I reeeaaally wish people would stop drawing a direct line between eating vegan and eating healthy.

Just cause I don’t want to eat animals that doesn’t mean I don’t want to stuff my face with good food.

Most restaurants just throw a salad at you or something.

I was researching the other day when we might expect the housing market to recover to the point where people can actually afford a house again.

Instead, what I found was lots of articles proclaiming that the housing market will “recover” by 2024. By “recover” they meant that the downward trend in $$$ is going up again. Meaning house prices going up.

It really blew my mind that there is so little concern for affordability and it’s all about the investments… So sad. Seriously considering leaving Canada at some point in the future in order to buy a house, which is nuts.
