I would hope all their engineers make more than that. For Apple that should be entry level.

I think it was just announced last year… I know there were rumors for a long time.

I mean, obviously from ME. Fallout has been by far the best video game adaptation so far. It wasn’t really an adaptation though because it is its own story. They seemed to really respect the source material. The lead actor played the game so she could do justice to the franchise. Both shows are made by Amazon, so I have somewhat high hopes.

Amazon is creating a Mass Effect TV show. I hope they draw inspiration from Fallout rather than Halo or even Last of Us.

Yeah, a lot of people complained about it back then. So much complaining that they replaced it with the planet scanning in Mass Effect 2. A much worse mechanic. ME2 improved the gameplay in every other way. ME1 story with ME2 mechanics and menu system would be the best.

Because they’ve been good guys so far. They made PC gaming so much easier and have pushed linux into the mainstream.

That followed an announcement for their battery business if I’m not mistaken. Which isn’t what Musk was trying to pump.

I think that was a big reason why the stock took a hit. He keeps getting caught faking it, and even his fakes are decades behind Boston Dynamics.

He rolls out the same BS every time the stock needs to be pumped up. The good thing is, it didn’t work this time. This unveil actually made the stock drop because they’re so far behind.

That’s the first thought I had too. Obviously, with his photo, he is looking pretty safe, but he has practically a museum worth of old tech.

Any other OS usually does. It helps enterprise customers make cost projections.

It was always going to fail. At that point, Twitter as a company only recently started actually making a profit. What Musk did is called a leveraged buy-out where someone takes out a loan to buy a company. The company that is bought out is then responsible for paying that loan. Remember when I said they just barely had started making money? Well, now they have so much debt that they not only have to make enough money to cover their previous expenses, but also cover the payments for this new loan, and the new loan has interest that creates additional debt of $1 billion a year. How is a company that struggles to make money suddenly going to come up with an extra $1 billion a year? Charging for checkmarks? There aren’t enough users… That’s why he is so desperate. He knows that by making that joke offer, he royally screwed himself when Twitter called his bluff and forced him to buy. I think he just wanted an excuse to sell some Tesla stock that he knew was overvalued but had said he wouldn’t sell.

It can’t afford its debt. It’s almost guaranteed to happen.

They don’t make or contribute to any types of technology.

That part isn’t completely true. When they created the bootstrap framework it changed how many people built websites. They can and have contributed to technology. However, your point is valid that news about Twitter is business news.

It’s not just the one employee though. Gamer Nexus has been calling out LTT for inaccuracies too. The ethics of LMG seem dubious at best and the are lots of other options so why keep watching LTT?

Both. It’s a semi secret club.

On the usenet side of the house, I think the only big change was NZB Matrix going away.
