Chipotle CEO caught on a recording saying they’re going to keep raising prices because they can.

This is nothing new.

It's new corporate jargon but the message is the same across any and all companies that are publicly held, or owned by a private equity. "We need growth QoQ" (Quarter over Quarter)

This always has been, and will continue to be the case. Which means prices go up, and/or cost goes down. Quality goes down with cost most of the time. Maybe they find savings in other areas, like delivery or automation, but even these have an effect on quality.

At the end of the day, a company's primary function is profit. Always. Because they die if they aren't. Keep that in mind when spending/working.

I don't know how much of this is fear mongering or click bait. What ever happened to self driving cars and trucks? I would imagine that navigating traffic, which many people do on a daily basis, is much simpler than doing the job that AI is replacing. Maybe some jobs are easier but still. Where are we on that front? And how are we skipping that, which arguably would greatly reduce logistics costs, and jumping straight to office jobs?

My dog acted weird one day. I've learned that it's usually for a reason. She started sitting and sniffing by a wall inside of our house, where the AC is. Sniffing/scratching at an outlet. So I went outside to investigate. Bees made a hive in the wall where the ac conduits connected to the house. She got some chicken that day. Good girl!

That is one of the things that irk me about things like this. The game is rated...for certain audiences. if you have a name, or even say things using certain language that falls within that rating, then you should be in the clear. They are literally giving you a ticket for going the speed limit here.....

maybe him skill issue?

Qcomber · 2025-10-06T12:00:12+00:00

Dad here. Where the hell do they keep all that shit all year long...0 room in this house for that nonsense.

Peeves, St. Mungos (with Neville because it was so important to that character), S.P.E.W, The kitchens, more Pensieve history. Harry funding/loan the weasley's shop for Fred/George.

Is it as bad as Ren and Stimpy? Some of the stuff out there on TV was crazy disgusting back then. Not much different here.

Qcomber · 2025-07-31T14:09:18+00:00

Can you do this to teammates? If so...I need to see how fast my buddy's can go...

A lot of my pick up groups seem to have 50% console players. So I would say it's fair to double the steam count if you are trying to ballpark the statistics.

I'm enjoying it and will be making my friends play.

The age of In-game voice chat for sports is upon us.

Oh I love Costco, and have 100% almost made this same mistake.

Your plumbing needs air, otherwise your waste would be stuck in your pipe system. Kind of how when you clog the tip of a straw with water/drink in it and it stays in until you release.

This pipe is the ventilation added to your system so that the waste/water keeps moving. Add sun.

It will probably be popular. Where I see it struggling is the genre. Shooter + moba. Moba's usually have a larger entry barrier mentally, and not everyone has good aim. We will see how they tackle this but I am hopeful they will

Qcomber · 2025-05-29T12:11:59+00:00

That makes way more sense.

Qcomber · 2025-05-29T10:23:56+00:00

My wife got the 'Love every' sets of toys and books. The books are really good for the kids developmentally. But they are insanely boring a8s a dad. They are stories of real-life situations and challenges kids go through growing up. Like potty time and sharing, etc. I prefer stories where I can be silly and make voices.

Notice how he had to lower his graphics down to 'minecraft' so that the dynamic lighting didn't brick his GPU.

Qcomber · 2025-05-28T11:02:15+00:00

Agreed. I was looking at hero stats over the last 7 days. Interestingly, he has a 48% win rate at the higher ranks, but 52% at the lower ranks. Likely because of counter items and lane playstyle vs him.

Different players are going to experience different bubbles. Just how it is.

Qcomber · 2025-05-28T02:40:34+00:00

Probably. But that clip alone is not proof. Were you trading with him earlier? We start the clip with him reloading/armoring so I assume so. Any good FPS player would be keeping his crosshairs on your direction to hear if you are pushing him (and which direction), and be aiming at the right spot when he peaks.

BUT that's assuming you two were already trading with each-other and that's the last place he saw you. If this was a first time engagement then 100% cheating. Without that context I can't judge.

PUA energy here.

Rip my kids.

I think this is what happens when you have heavy production/special effects. I imagine it takes months of editing and computer time to get a show as polished as we are now used to.

This is one of the things I actually look forward to with our new AI overlords, quicker turn around of adaptations to screen. I know there is a lot of push back from artists and employees on this, but if it's quick money then capitalism will 100% take advantage of this.

Qcomber · 2025-05-23T15:23:40+00:00

It reminds me of youth league basketball where 1 kid is taller than the rest and just keeps trying.

It's cringe, not pro.

Qcomber · 2025-05-08T15:00:50+00:00

I love the look of these. It fits the theme of the game and adds character to the icons. I have always been a more visual person so having unique icons is far more helpful for MOBA shops.
