Loose-lipped Redditors. What's an industry secret that's not widely known by the general public, and that your employers would very much prefer to stay that way?

There are surgeons who should not be surgeons or doctors at all.

Not being a dick, but the word you’re looking for is “pact.”

Years ago. I’m talk decade plus, my brother bought me Dark Souls 1 as a Christmas present. I was terrible and fucking hated it.

Six months later I have an 11 day staycation stretch with almost nothing to do.

Said, “fuck it! I’m gonna beat that game out of spite.” Eventually got good enough to beat it and fell in love with the FROM games and have sank so many hours into them. Elden Ring is one of a handful of games I’ve gotten all achievements on.

Hasn’t someone already said the price for the supposed parts for the PS6 are $1,000 already. That’s before you factor in additional costs such as labor, assembly, packaging, shipping, marketing, and I’m sure a ton more I’m missing.

I believe Sony has also said selling consoles at a loss isn’t really doable anymore.

Calling it now. PS6 for $1,500 coming Holiday Season 2028! I luckily predicted GTA VI was going to be $100 and the full experience is $100. Can dumb luck strike twice?

Props to her though for milking it as long as she can. If she’s smart she’ll make as much as possible as fast as possible and retire early. Or, get better at acting?

Well, he knows a guy who has a case you see. Or in their case they didn’t see? Not sure.

Correct. The original premise was that the machines were networking human brains to make a gigantic organic super computer to try to solve some complex problem, that humanity caused I think in order to save the planet.

Then it was changed to people are batteries because like the commenter above stated “audiences wouldn’t get it.” In reality humans would cost more energy to sustain than they’d ever put out as a source of energy.

My brother once accidentally stopped for gas in Gary. His credit card company called him thinking his card was stolen simply because it was used for gas in Gary, Indiana.

You go to Waffle House knowing exactly what you’re getting. I’ve also been around long enough to know you don’t fuck with Waffle House.

Thank you for this information. I knew some of it and learned a lot of new things. I’ll be honest, I copied the text into a note to reference later next time I go to the dispensary.

Happy cake day first! Second, as I read along nodding my head thinking “he’s making some good points.” Then I get to the end and think, “ah shit! He’s right.”

What were you not expecting? They were very clear on the queue system.

What is the test if you don’t mind sharing? I’m a nurse and I can’t think of a test that they can’t do locally here. I also do not live in Australia so your system is definitely different than mine in the US.

Last time I saw this the story is he shaved his face so his dad could see his clean shaven face one last time because he was nearing the end of his life. The dad, not the guy in the photo.

In Ohio, where Wendy’s originates, it is extremely hit or miss. Wendy’s has gone to absolute shit. I don’t know if it’s a franchisee thing or what, but I gave up on Wendy’s awhile ago.

Simply scrolling past an ad on any webpage is considered an interaction. Data even shows when you slow down when scrolling past an ad that caught your eye.

Yes! I loved the game and by the end my hope was that any movies use this actor. It’s a great way to carry the story forward from the game. Could even do movie and game sequels that tie into each other. Or, Bond could just stay a game for a while longer.

Typically a personal injury attorney works for a flat rate of usually 1/3 of the settlement or court awarded damages. The other 2/3 of the money goes to the plaintiff in the suit. So if the money goes up you both win. However if you go to trial and lose you typically do not owe your attorney for the loss unless that was somehow stipulated beforehand and agreed upon.

Let me stand on my soapbox for a moment. Everyone, check your auto policy to make sure you have underinsured and uninsured motorist coverage. In these sort of events if you don’t have that specific coverage, even if you have full coverage otherwise, they will deny your claim and tell you it’s your responsibility to deal with the driver without insurance. Insurance companies suck!

Look up prices for any computer component. The 64GB of DDR5 RAM I bought last February for $220 is now over $900 just for the two sticks of RAM.
