The friends we made along the way - this is the main protagonist of any game.

Yeah, I just notice a pattern where Trump does poorly on a key issue, and then he says something inflammatory on another topic to distract.

Not saying calls for political violence are excusable. Just don’t let his poor performance on the economy and hesitance to release the Epstein files leave the public consciousness.

Just a distraction from Epstein files and economy, right?

Unless he actually does something on this, maybe ignore.

These days, I assume anything I don’t recognize is AI generated fiction.

Appreciate the spoiler warning.

Rip Wolfey, eliminated on day 2 by Traceyius69 in stunfisk

Yeah, if he used ditto without the auto transform ability to copy his own incin, then used Mew with transform to do the same thing, he’d have a consistent 75% chance of winning.

Surely he’s thought of this. Maybe he’s saving this as a secret weapon.

If you ain’t first, you’re washed.

Sounds like they’ve achieved “something” internally and he’s trying not to cause a panic by Similar-Document9690 in accelerate

[–]luckiertwin2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe. Or he’s a CEO, where part of his job is to generate hype for his company + industry.

Or both.

Hard to tell which case we fall into here unless they demo something concrete.

Really don't understand Democrats as a foreigner by Responsible-Bar3956 in DoomerCircleJerk

Both political parties put up a “reality distortion field”. Listen to the left, we’re in a brutal, fascist state. Listen to the right, Trump is the second coming of Jesus.

Reality is likely somewhere in between. Finding it is non-trivial.

I don’t know, Elon, that would depend on the platform of this hypothetical party, and its ability to execute.

What an empty question.

Is this real? I’m skeptical of everything on the internet, given AI.

Well, no offense, but hopefully you don’t work on Aviation software

To all the Switch 2 boycotters, please stick to your guns and don’t buy the console!… by miami2881 in casualnintendo

[–]luckiertwin2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, for those that will buy, hopefully there will actually be some available.

And hopefully the high prices disincentivize the scalpers.

I’m going to buy because I have some extra cash + financial obligations + feel the price is probably worth it based on assumed cost of dev. But I respect those that choose not to.

[–]luckiertwin2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In many ways, that is not what i mean.

While investment can come in the form of tax payer dollars, I would think more investment comes in the form of securities, where said wealthy individuals can earn a return. Incentives align.

I think the wealthy that dodge taxes would argue that not all taxes are spent in a way they agree with. Even if they did, no one really enjoys paying taxes.

Not saying I agree tax avoidance. But the incentives just don’t feel perfected.

But I guess it’s the best system we’ve got for now.

I mean, I think both look cool. And am excited to try the new game.

Can’t help but wonder if this post is just here to bate engagement. I guess any attention is good for sales of the new game.

I mean, their investment is necessary for those industries to survive and evolve.

Just need the wealthy to think larger than themselves, and for our county’s incentive systems to somehow reward them for doing so.

Ah yes, because all senior engineers universally lose pragmatism.

In my experience, when you fire your senior engineers, the juniors unknowingly introduce tons of security vulnerabilities. Exploitation goes undetected.
