Closing a bunch of profitable game studios*

They weren't floundering (at least Tango Gameworks wasn't, I Guess I'm not positive on the others).

Even .NET isn't terrible on Linux. I mostly write in C# using .net stuff myself and I've yet to have any compatibility or performance issues running on Ubuntu. I can't speak to graphical side though as I'm mostly backend or command line tools.

Seriously, blaming entertainment (actual entertainment, not "news" that weasels in court calling itself entertainment) has been a thing since the stone ages. It wasn't true about rock and roll, it wasn't true about dime novels, it's not true now about superhero stuff.

Heck, even "I did too much of the drugs" can usually be solved with drugs.

You heard it here folks. Eat your drugs. Say no to school. Stay in vegetables.

The stupid thing is it totally could have made things better. Facilitated knowledge share, floated work between studios if one needed help, heck, just combining HR and publishing tools could have freed up some costs that could feed back into development. Something.

But yeah, saw it coming

He didn't actually think it was the most efficient. It's way worse. He knew he could get a proposed high speed rail line killed so it wouldn't cut into his car sales. He did not care one bit what happened after it died. Everything else was his PR team.

We just need to find a way to grow a film of algae in the sky around the planet. Food source. Absorbs some of the heat which is the big problem most know about climate change. And it's a fun colour. Win win win

Don't worry, it's not you, it's them.

They fried okay because the oil physically alters the brussel sprout by more evenly distributing heat and then driving water out, firming it up.

When things are frozen though the water in their cells expand and can rip themselves apart. When you grilled them, these weaker cell walls didn't have any chemical or physical reactions firming them up. They just sort of steam themselves and go limp.

A Venus flytrap doesn't kill to survive. It hugs to death, and then since the body is there it just makes sure it doesn't go to waste. Big difference.

I'm sick of this world. Let's burn it to the ground quicker. You have my vote.

Double bonus if you use a Carolina rice spoon for your rice, and throw in some pulled pork from the pig pickin.
