It’s for the good of FICSIT… …and humanity

Institutional inertia is real. Obviously every situation is different but in most cases they are not blocking remote access, they’re just tracking if you badged in that day. If you are still doing work, it’s going to take them awhile to respond - they are hoping you quit rather than having to fire you.

Both things should be done simultaneously!

Usually it’s phased and they don’t cut off remote access entirely. They still want you to be able to work on the weekend at home…

Let them enforce it. Don’t quit, that’s what they are trying to accomplish anyway.

I have 600 hours in it so far and I only stopped playing because I built my freighter large enough that pieces started disappearing off it randomly

Anything that gives Qualcomm a bad day is good for humanity

Left unsaid: the developers were starting to ask for more money and creative freedom than MS was willing to give, and had to be taught a lesson.

Also the market demands sacrifices.

It was actually a fascinating and well written, well delivered contextual analysis of a game called Smuta. It discusses historical events and current Russian politics in a witty and online manner

Do you exclusively play sports game [current year]?

If nothing else, it keeps an anticapitalist narrative in the public discourse

Incredible

Real-life Baron Harkonnen

It’s generic in some ways but the combat and movement are very smooth
