Comment GOG is for poaching more than launching (Score 1) 47

And like I said I don't see anyone talking about GOG.

How much of that is related to GOG's reputation for being selective about what games and genres they accept? I get the impression that GOG is a bit more "curated" than some other PC game stores. The curators don't really want visual novels (a style of menu-driven adventure game). And apart from new releases by CD Projekt (which owned GOG before the end of 2025), I suspect that GOG seeks to poach "catalog" games that have already been successful on the competing store Steam as opposed to having a game at day one.

So OpenAI "accidentally" lets their internal agents under test hack some third parties, and not to be out done Anthropic rushes out to say ours too!

I mean nothing says invest-able business like 'hi our products are dangerous and despite positioning ourselves as a leading tech firms we can't competently implement internet access controls'

We really are living in the dumbest universe

Wrong, it's a slight of hand. This is not about individual cameras, this is about the network that uses all cameras together to follow you no matter what you do, no matter where you go, people shouldn't have a government that follows their every step by using AI and networked devices. If this was about individual cameras you would have a point, it is not, it is unreasonable to allow a government to exist that creates a panopticon of this scale, citizens shouldn't feel like they are inside a prison and the warden is watching.

That is certainly true. However I also don't think this lawsuit should be entertained. Nothing here rises to the level real harassment, except in the head of this former employer, if even there as it just as like they are suing some with deep pockets because they can.

Cases like this need to be tossed, quickly and loudly to cut the bullshit.

FUCK YOU TO Fred!

There are to of sales jobs where there literally is nothing separating the good performers from the great ones on than hustle. How many calls did you make. How much time did you spend checking back with people who said "I'll think about it."

You frequently have sales teams where there is nobody that is performing badly. You might very well have a case where everyone had a 500k in revenue goal and all of them hit. Still someone will have done 650k and someone will have done 515k. There will still be a top and bottom. Making it a little 'good natured' internal competition is perfectly fine!

Calm down Karen.

This entire thing is stupid. Nobody can have any fun anymore. It is only assault and its only sadistic if people feel force. Nothing wrong with announcing a little contest to the effect of top closer gets throw a pie at lowest closer during the company picnic.

If that is your team dynamic fine. Now if someone says "Boss, I don't want throw a pie anyone and I don't why a pie thrown at me" than yeah you need to drop the idea immediately and say something like "ok it was probably not best thing I ever came up with, alright instead top closer gets $100 gift cert to Baker Square"

People just need to be adults.

No, the jobs are not going to the citizens of the county where the citizens are subsidizing for all this for their own enslavement.

Who would ever believe such a thing after the Covid lies?
