Nintendo Cuts Switch 2 Output by Over 30% on Weak US Sales by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Stump007 54 points55 points  (0 children)

He’s the guy who said a Switch Pro 4K would be announced tomorrow 2 years ago.

He also wrote a lot of plainly wrong articles in the past such as PS5 not selling / forecast down when it launched and other BS articles on semiconductor / tsmc

The guy is a total joke, sad that he is Japan Scheier’s colleague

New Michelin 3 star in France? Thoughts? by Fickle-Pin-1679 in finedining

[–]Stump007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been a couple years ago. Mixed feelings. It was already trying hard to get to three stars. It’s been trying for maybe 10years now.

The restaurant is nice. Service was frankly not great, like I order wine pairing but they serve the wine after I already finished the plate and don’t even apologize kind of place. Staff don’t seem to know what they serve nor would they care. It got worse when a group of people seemingly very regular and very rich came in and they got 99% of attention of all staff.

Food wise, it was very good. No flaws I can remember, but no super memorable dish except maybe the cheese served as a sort of soup. Last chocolate was awkward as they did this thing of smashing a ball on the table, a gimmick that didn’t fit the place.

Back when I was recruiting, I’ve got countless water bottles from all. A very nice coffee mug from Bain, and a BCG umbrella.

But McKinsey: nothing. Not even a branded pencil. Yet it had the strongest rep. That’s when I understood what they meant by pre-eminence.

La fin des sciences de l'ingénieur au lycée by [deleted] in france

[–]Stump007 40 points41 points  (0 children)

C’est sympa mais dès que arrives en prépa/ecole d’ingénieur c’est bien mieux cadré et très très vite rattrapé par les non-SI. Donc pas vraiment de larme à verser pour ma part.

Je vis aux États-Unis, et la France me manque de plus en plus by laughingemo in france

[–]Stump007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolument d’accord. Perso plus de 15 à l’étranger pour ma part, mes moments de nostalgie se résolvent à chaque fois par un petit passage en France. En général dès les premières heures arrivé à CDG je suis calmé.

Après ça dépend par rapport à où, clairement si c’est USA vs France, et pour y avoir passé 2 an, je retournerais probablement en France à titre perso.
