Why did I immediately try to find Wally/Waldo?
I suspect they do have in-house QA, although it is likely a small team, and even when they do identify a bug the Devs don't have sufficient time to fix them.
An opt-in test environment is great for testing new features to get feedback and it's the right move, you can't have an internal team determine if a new feature is great for the player base, it'd be like Arrowhead giving itself a pat on the back for coming up with a great idea.
Give Deep Space Nine a go if you haven't it's the slightly darker side of trek.
It would be cool if it included other names for things. E.g. Kubernetes can also be known as K8s. Also not too mobile friendly when looking at more info. Besides that it is an interesting concept!
Can confirm Iceland still do the official sausage rolls. Had one for lunch. Still can't get them to cook right in the air fryer, and feel like it's a waste putting the oven on for a single sausage roll.
When I first moved into my house I needed to improve the insulation as the existing stuff wasn't sufficient. I reached out to a spray foam company who sent a salesman around. The guy was incredibly pushy and didn't care about the minor details. When I was saying it was too much he called his manager up on the phone and was talking to her like she was a piece of shit that he'd trodden in. I reached a point and asked him to leave. About 15 minutes after he'd left the manager called me back directly sounding like she'd been crying, asking for feedback on the guy. Even after I said it was a terrible experience she continued to try and sell the service to me! It was probably some terrible double-act to get sales.
It left a bad taste, I got the feeling it was a terrible cowboy operation and they were claiming to be one of the major players in the UK. Seeing this and over time reading people's experiences really makes me feel like I dodged a bullet by not getting foam spray insulation. It all sounded too good to be true.
Trent and Atticus Ross have been doing lots of great soundtracks for shows and movies. I feel they are just using the NIN name for impact, but ultimately it'll still be those two doing the soundtrack.
Set it to UK if that link isn't working for you
I decided to give the gold place breaking video a watch and although these people are skilled, I just don't quite get the "this is the current peak of human physical fitness/skill" that we see from other sports. Diving, Rowing, BMXing, even synchronised swimming were all really impressive. I wonder if Breaking will make a return?
The first season was so so good. I can understand people being eager to see the continuation, but not to see it in its complete state sounds like a downside to me. I feel like it would be like watching a Cam footage of a movie, just doesn't feel right.
Back when I was younger in college there was a guy who was very socially awkward and unfortunately had a stink that could be smelt from the opposite end of a long corridor. He used to hang out with another kid who had learning difficulties. One day one of the least nice people in my class said to smelly guy "Jesus Christ, why don't you go take a shower, you stink!" and this caused smelly guy to go bright red in the face and storm off.
Cut to after class and a bunch of us go to the communal area of the college and hang out. Smelly guy walks into the area and walks up to his friend all flustered. His friend asks "Are you alright?" And smelly guy says "Someone told me I need a shower because I smell", friend says very timidly "it might be a good idea." Smelly guy goes bright red and storms off again.
He comes back after about 10 minutes and walks up to his friend and pulls out two cans of deodorant and shouts "YOU THINK I SMELL?!" And proceeds to spray the deodorant over himself in a rage...but then turns on his friend and sprays him like crazy. Everyone around is in shock and smelly guy throws the cans on the floor and storms out of the building. We can all see him out the window and he walks up to a bin and kick it, it doesn't move (secured to the ground) and he falls over, gets up and runs off. We didn't see him for the rest of the week.
The following week he turns up and his hair has been cut, he has new clothes and his aura of stink is gone. People just casually say hi and over the remaining time we were at college people started to talk to him more and were more polite towards him. He'd still hang out with his friend so I suspect that outburst was water under the bridge.
I hope ex-smelly guy is alright in life. That must have been quite the turning point for him.

She's saying these things to him to reinforce it into his subconscious. One day he may start believing those lies, and one day they may actually come true. Except the tall thing, he's fucked.
