I agree with this post. A $200 million failure clearly refutes the first portion of the sentence: "Concord wasn't a bad game, but it just didn't generate enough interest with enough players". Heck, where I work, a $200 million failure would have someone sent to jail.

I'd be fine with this. Recently Audible removed a book from my library and essentially told me to kick rocks. I'd listened to it when I first got it, and although I wanted to go back and check something in one of the chapters (which is how I found the book was no longer available), it's not the end of the world: it's just $15 they stole from me.

I'm glad you got to have kids and watch them grow from birth. I never got to do that; I married a gal and the boys were already ten and eleven years old when I entered their life.

I agree. I think a second benefit could be that interested high school (or college) students now get a data source that doesn't change locations from administration to administration. It is mildly frustrating to me that many government websites simply change where things are each year. Worse is when a department goes through the amazingly beneficial operation of name change. /s

Apparently this was a new test, essentially A B testing. The only difference in the two sets of email were that one set had links to ActBlue and the other set had links to WinRed. The complaint is that the WinRed linking emails were marked as spam but the ActBlue linking emails were not.

I used to like Mike and his website and purpose in life. Heck, I was even in the coffee club or water cooler club or whatever you call the small monthly donation club. But then he went full TDS and I gave up on him and his causes.

I'd give you an upvote, but apparently those aren't available to me.

Let the countries they're registered in bail them out.

I live in a city that is overwhelmed by cruise ship passengers every summer, and I'd be happy to see the cruise ship companies die. They do everything in their power to avoid paying any local taxes and fees, have bought out or driven out of business most local businesses that cater to their passengers, hire as few locals as possible during the tourist season, and a list of sins longer than I can remember.

And really, the list of reasons why not to bail them out should only need one item: They're not American companies. Let them as Liberia or whatever country they're registered in bail them out.

Good question. I checked out for ten years and this place has really gone down the toilet.

What, by being black?

It looks like it was designed by a 12-year-old.

And shit like this is why so many old-timers left this place. Slashdot used to be a site dedicated to tech news. Now it's become a rancid shithole full of angry nerds.

Grow the fuck up.
