No, those are the words of someone who has seen nothing but slop for more than a decade (OK, there were a couple of exceptions), and has reached the point where there is no expectation things will ever get better. I have also given up hope that Star Wars will ever be good again.
I expect your opinion, which I share, is a majority opinion. Star Wars is almost nothing but slop now.
It seems to me they could redirect the 10 figures a year they are spending on building a VR world no one wants or will use. Or did they cannibalize that already?
We get it. You don't like Beyonce. Neither do I, but I'm not making a scene over that fact.
Around 1990, I worked for a couple months on an embedded device that had an 80186 and a megabyte of RAM. At one point, I had access to a huge pile of 1MB SIMMs and took a stack home for the evening and using memory boards that allowed you to stack up to 8 of them into one SIMM slot in your computer to figure out just how little RAM Windows NT 3.5 really needed to boot. It booted successfully with 12MB of RAM. It really wasn't usable, but it did boot up. Nowadays, Windows is probably only marginally usable with 12GB of RAM.
They work for Meta. I would expect them to be miserable.
The company has been dumping 10 figures a year into trying to build a VR world no one wants, with nothing to show for it after the better part of a decade. At some point, you expect morale to decrease.
They'll use the same excuse when AI perfects the Torment Nexus, I'm sure.
Oops. I thought I was responding to the story about the grossly insecure White House app.
Still, it's incompetence all the way down.
Although I'm not as big a fan of Hanlon's Razor as I used to be, I'd be willing to chalk this up to typical government incompetence, farming this work out to the cheapest bidder in a way where no one involved in any decision-making has any technical expertise whatsoever.
Nothing is going to get better as long as the U.S. education system is captured by ideologues whose priorities are _not_ an educated, literate and thinking populace.
It went to the same place that Winamp 4 went to.
I loved Hack 1.0.3. At some point between then and now NetHack got unreasonably difficult for me.
Multiple instances of a name with a non-ASCII character and of course
I'm referring to Erdos, of course, but I replaced the non-ASCII o with a diacritical so it would be displayed in my message.
I rarely see _any_ subtitles that are not appallingly bad, including YouTube.
Do they actually do anything?
Truth is free, but information costs.
