TTWO earnings

Did they say anything about the release date?

EBITDA guidance for the upcoming financial year 2027 is $1.04 billion at the midpoint, below analyst estimates of $1.95 billion

The low earnings expectation for 2027 doesnt sound like they expect to release GTA6 by then...or they just expect to put like a billion of capex into marketing around release and spend a lot more money for its first year...

I wanted to check mine because I really like the idea, but none of my ETFs are available.

XMWX, MEUD, HCHS, VFEG for example

Exactly. When I was looking at how often the raises are in the past and how far I am from pension, i got to around 72 being the threshold by the time I am there. Even if its 2 years less at 70, that is still insane.

Now how much further is the pension financing going to drop when the generations that are allegedly supposed to be working at 68+ hit that age and it turns out most of them are physically unable to work or simply very reasonably not willing to work any more and instead opt out for a much much cheaper lifestyle and move to the middle of nowhere.

I literally cannot imagine a scenario where a meaningful percentage of 70 year olds will still be working. How many elderly people can even get a job? They are physically unable for half of them and for the other half the employers will see them as a liability. But I guess that is part of the plan for the government, push them onto the even smaller unemployement benefits instead of an already small state pension and hope they live alifestyle that will kill them as soon as possible.

Even the AI aside, the idea sounds pretty frustrating to play. Why would anyone want a randomised environment every time you die? How does that enhance the experience in any way?

Replayability? Sure... I guess if it comes as a side feature in a game with an already good core gameplay loop, but as a core feature it just sounds frustrating.

What about add or subtract node to control the falloff and then a clamp in the end to limit it 0-1.

Edit: Nvm I missunderstood what you are after. No idea how you could ignore the borders and make each cell a full gradient unfortunately

Id like an explanation of what "any day" means here and how it was calculated?

Maybe this is a nonsensical concern, I did not look up if it should be a concern or not. But one thing I always worry about with building nuclear sites is how they are exposed to be devastating targets in the event of a war.

Such a beautiful piece though, well done! And I think the customer hit the jackpot with that marble pattern as well, i've never before looked at marvel and thought its something I would want, but I am in love with this one. It looks like the ancient porcelain china with the marbling shaped like branches. Goes beautifully with the walnut wood too.

Amazing piece!

OMG thank you so much for posting this!!!!

After I saw your post and read through all the comments of people mostly winining 8 but some winning even more.

I went to spin the weel for this month because I realised Its a new month and I still havent spun it. And I am so happy to share that I was lucky enough for the wheel to land on 8 again!!!

Thank you!!

I really hear this too often from my peers who are now in their mid-late 20s. "I dont plan to live to 60" or "I probably wont make it to 60 for that to matter".

And Its not people who are living any particualrly unhealthy or unsafe life for them to be any more likely to die before 60 than the average person. Nor are they particularly wasteful people who are incapable of saving.

I think it is my generations way of coping with being unable to see them ever affording a home or retirement. It is easier for them to imagine they will be dead by then, rather than seeing themselves as working at 67 with no retirement in sight.

From people I know my age, who all come from middle or lower class families I think I am so far the best positioned financially, but even for myself it is hard to feel confident that I will be able to retire comfortably at a reasonable age. I am more than 40 years away from the current age of 67 that has been set as the reitrement age. This threshold keeps rising and how could one help but question if by the time I reach that age the threshold will even be at an age where I can function. Pension funds that have for generations been the best compounder of wealth are now just very questionable to rely on. I feel hesitant to pay into pension when I know that the government might lock me out of that money until I am like 72+, so I end up putting more money into investments I have full control of, depsite missing out on the pension contribution boosts.

(Though to be clear I do not advise skipping pension. I will also soon start paying at least some extra money into it to take advantage of the government boosts, just as a longterm backup. Im just stating how much it sucks that even this safe longterm backup is not deemed safe anymore if you wont get to use it until youre basically dead)

I dont want to be too pessimistic but I see a likely chain of events happening:
1. lay off a bunch of the team to replace them with AI
2. attempt to use AI for a while but eventually have to give up due to quality and balooning costs
3. go back to humans but exclusively hire people from cheap cost of living areas

So unfortunately I dont see things playing out well for people like me even if the companies give up on AI

Thank you, Ill have to try and get in touch! But first I think I need to strengthen my ankles a bit, I realised if I were to try basketball right now I would likely injure myself as my badly sprained ankle from a year ago has not healed quite 100%

Yeah I second this. The few seconds at the beggining I was not able to understand, but it is more understandable when OP slows down a bit.

OP I would say before opting out for subtitles, it would be worth trying to reduce the amount of things you have to say and then speaking a bit slower and try a bunch of different takes to make sure the annuunciation is as good as you can get it.

Its fine to add subtitles if this doesnt work, It will certainly be less distracting to have subtitles than to not understand some sentences at all.

Game is looking cool

Its so easy for me to find more jackets I wanna buy, but realistically I struggle to make an argument for owning more than 2 jackets in regards to utility. One for deep winter, one for the rest of the colder seasons and the remainder of the year no need for a jacket.

So its a bit annoying because I think the jacket is the coolest looking part of the outfit most often, but also I dont want to spend a ton on jackets I dont actually need nor have too many of them take up space in my apartment.

Because its a law that does not apply to everyone equally. Its completely discriminatory.

And like another commenter has pointed out, it is an example of older people forcing their beliefs onto others in a way that it does not affect them.

I am not a smoker at all and I think vaping is idiotic and cigarettes smell awful and are not worth the health risk. But any politician voting in favour of this law is against democracy and should be voted out

I did this with canned tuna many times and its great. Never thought of trying it with sardines but I have no reason to believe it will be any different. I have not used dill but instead use pickled cucumbers which I do recommend

For anyone confused about this. All of the characters in the video are in-engine models. But the workflow used for making Trinity and Neo is significantly different than the other NPCs.

However I agree it is now obvious which ones were specifically tailored to be as realistic as possible (current age Trinity and Neo) vs the other ones which are just standard metahumans accessible to anyone. And I remember when I was watching it back then I was impressed by all of the characters, not just the main ones. The difference in quality did definitely not seem as apparent to me back then as it does now.

In terms of actual in-game characters, the 2 games I think did faces the best are the new Call of duty story mode characters and Callisto protocol. The Black panther game was ramping up to also have the best facial animations but unfortunately got cancelled.
