YOOO RAVE CONE

This is the premise of 90% of Kirk/Spock fanfiction I've re- I mean OTHER people have told me about.

Definitely other people.

Japanese people answer their phone like that, everything is fine.

I answer my phone like that, I'm branded a weaboo for the rest of my life.

I'm realizing I don't even know the slurs associated with those races, never mind food referring to those slurs.

...I should really go thank my grandparents.

Fighting biology sounds metal as hell, rock on dude! 🤘

To your first point, I just automatically assumed that it was to feed into Samsung AI. I'm not a values customer, but my data sure is 🤡

"Dehomed" is such a better term than "homeless" or "unhoused". First term I've heard that doesn't put the blame on the person without a home.

Even "unhoused" is too neutral of a term for how people often end up without secure shelter.

Is it schizo-posting-o'clock already?

My niece calls them "skrunkly"

If it was money thing, couldn't he just say "I needed as much coin as I could scrape up to get Sora from Disney" like he basically said with the last wave of DLC characters?

Maybe it's my nostalgia glasses, but this is something I actually believe coming from Sakurai. The man almost hates useless ads as much as Lemmy users.

Didn't Ubisoft layoff 45 people in April, and then 100+ people before last Christmas? Sure that's not Google/Microsoft numbers, but I'm struggling to see how that's not related to the "reducing headcount" here.

They've also had a bunch of games cease production/get quietly cancelled, and if there were contractors working on those instead of full employees, those wouldn't count as "layoffs".

Edit: Apr. 2024: Ubi lays off 45.

Nov. 2023: Ubi lays off 124 people, 98 in Canada

Sept. 2023 - they closed their London studio and 60 positions were "affected" (they never said if they were let go or redistributed within the company)

May 2023: Ubi Lays off 60 people
