Yup, as long as the current staff (by and large) are still at the helm of the Ars orbiting HQ, I'll continue to go there. I've lost too many other good tech news sites in the last decade, I can't lose another one.
The rest of Conde Nast is hot garbage.
Me, the one time I order something every year: "Oh shit oh shit oh shit are they gonna bring it to my door? the depot? Or maybe they'll leave it at the post office again or shit maybe they'll try to find my house but can't because google maps sucks here and they'll take it back and someone will give me crap for living in a place that doesn't exist oh shit oh shit oh shit I'm never ordering something ever again it's all gonna fail! I better call the depot and let them know that something might be dropped off with them..."
Meanwhile, my wife who orders 5 billion things that all arrive without incident: "Oh neat! Another parcel! I forgot I ordered this!"
Oh don't worry, the grifters will all have cashed out and be floating away on golden parachutes long after the decades of litigation is over.
Until June 5th for anyone wondering.
I bought a pile of Steam sales early on, and Humble Bundles to the point I can't bring myself to spend money anymore on games I won't play... my backlog is too much, but damn, the Epic store's freebie of the week? You can bet your ass I'm building up a backlog in that store too. There has been some junk in that but every now and then they have a fun little puzzle game or something - which is about my pace these days.
I'll also recommend this video for some further insight into this project: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWhHJWKa6CQ
And it's detrimental how?
They're very open about who sponsors. And you can't tell me that their production quality is cheap.
Can confirm. We had an infestation of house hippos last year and didn't even notice them until half way through winter and realizing all of our mittens were missing.
"Does a bear shit in the woods?"
Might be a regional thing but people would often say this as a sarcastic but emphatic "Yes" reply to people, particularly "obvious" answers.
Truth is, my personal observation is that they will make every opportunity to come out on the nearest road or field and shit there.
Obviously one could argue the pedantry (eg rural = woods, or most shit is in wooded areas) but my point is back to there actually being enough nuance to argue the point that they aren't making the point they think they are when they say that.
I'm fun at parties!
Skip to the last half of the season. And if you decide you want to know how they go to where they are, go back and finish the first half. Honestly, with original trilogy coming out first, then Rogue One, then the Andor seasons, it's probably the traditional way to watch! :)
And that's how you know for sure they are full of shit, or at the very least schizophrenic.
If I saw aliens, and some dude in a suit hushed me with a billion dollars, I'd be living on a yacht the next day.
