"This is rock bottom. Surely things can't get any more stupid than this." I say every time.
Then they turn around and prove me wrong.
30 is not the end. It's a profound moment of existential despair. A temporary paralysis. Followed by even more, even louder screaming.
"And don't you feel guilty about that one third?" - the 10%
I'm about to get pedantic.
Those scars were not the result of faulty wiring. Early belter space suits were built cheaply, often without proper insulation, especially around the mating area of the helmet. The suits would heat up in the sunlight, but without an atmosphere (and thus convection), wouldn't be able to cool down, and would burn the unprotected skin. Heat management is also why contemporary EVA suits are white.
Right... folks in Boston forgot how to make long-lasting batteries.
Pip-boys are powered by fission batteries, why would you want it off when you have all the energy you need?
They can't even give a satisfactory answer to whether lawyers would be able to uphold confidentiality while using their tools. The obvious answer is no, they just don't want to say it. What a fucking clown car.
Sometimes for maintenance, sometimes because manual intervention was necessary. The machines where we did this were built in the 90s and have been in near constant operation. Moving parts are worn out and the tolerances are gone. Replacement parts are difficult to find and expensive to manufacture, so if something more complex than a ball bearing or axle got out of alignment, we had to pound it back into place (sometimes literally).
I personally never bypassed the interlock, I wasn't paid enough to take on that responsibility. I would just file a downtime notice and call the on-site mechanic when needed. I didn't give a shit about reduced output.

We used to routinely disable safety interlocks on production machines. A guy almost got decapitated once while performing maintenance.
You "own" your car, but the dealership stole the keys, removed the engine, and locked the wheels because you bought a used set of winter tyres from a reseller.
Philip Rebohle, DXVK's founding developer, stated in an interview that he started the project "to get one specific game to work". Later, he explained in a forum post that he was a bit of a Nier fanboy, and that it was a relatively simple game to use as a test subject for DXVK.
Rebohle was later contacted and hired by Valve. Wine already had a D3D11 compatibility layer, but it wasn't nearly as far ahead as DXVK at the time. It's fair to say that Linux gaming wouldn't exist in its current form if not for one guy's appreciation for Nier Automata. Rebohle still works at Valve, currently conributing to VKD3D-Proton.
re: this article.
The title is a joke. "Free, but you have to make an EGS account" is a bit too rich for me.
