His possessions included a $55 million house. Boo fucking hoo.
Within a year of resigning from the top job at Peloton, he had raised $25 million for his new venture, a direct-to-consumer rug company called Ernesta.
So he failed at one company massively and investors were dumb enough to throw $25 million at him for making fucking rugs?
I was going to ask if it was Metallica who used to tell people to tape their songs off the radio but then got annoyed at Napster for spreading their songs.
I bought the alpha version back in 2015. I was happy with my $15 purchase then and they have continually updated the game. Sure, it has taken a while to “complete” the game but I never really even expected a story mode.
I do kind of agree with the sentiment that games so not necessarily need to be constantly worked on. Another game I think of is No Man’s Sky. Yes, it was a shallow and incomplete game on release. But they kept working on it until it was far beyond what would be considered complete. And they are still doing pretty major updates. While I do appreciate it because they have added some great content, I also think they could call it good and possibly put their developers onto a new game. There is also the risk that a major update screws up the game that people thought they bought.
1080 Snowboarding forced me to get an Interact Superpad 64. It had a metal joystick.
What sort of crack are they on that they think unauthorized use of an entire work for commercial gain is fair use? I think copywrite laws are ridiculous but that is a pretty low bar they are trying to set.
They should have to pay for their usage or retrain the model without it. Going to guess they would prefer to pay up.
By “controlled lending system,” do you mean the library? If so, it is ridiculously expensive for them to offer ebooks and audiobooks. One ebook costs $60-100 and they can only lend the licensed copy for two years. You would think audiobooks would be more expensive to do but publishers charge roughly the same.
OMG. I completely forgot they used to come in those. It’s like “let’s not just have this very degradable plastic have really salty food in it, let’s go ahead and add some water and microwave it.”
I wonder why we are finding micro plastics in people. /s
I think I have seen crappy styrofoam coolers a couple years ago for 4th of July. Those at least are meant to have containers inside of them. Drinks though, especially acidic ones, are nuts to put in styrofoam. That shit breaks down pretty easily which means it is going straight into your drink.
I’ve had the Double Down because it was an absurd idea. Mine tasted like an entire shaker of salt.
Honestly I thought it was here. It definitely already was in Seattle. I have not seen styrofoam for drinks outside of the South for over a decade.
When you do not have much of a bank account and you could easily be starting at tens of thousands in legal fees, it’s pretty easy to be unable to find them.
Not specifically, no. When I did change to building my own NAS, I cracked open my older 4TB backup drive to use as a spare.
I’m lost with what I’d need to do to access my server from outside my local network, and terrified of doing something wrong and leaving a hole open so any hacker can access my server. I’d like to do it some day, but I’d rather have a safe local network than screw and get my data stolen or deleted.
Setup a VPN via Wireguard or Tailscale. I personally have not done that but I have VPN setup through OpenVPN which I did not find that hard and people say that is significantly harder than Wireguard.
The other (less safe) option would be to setup a DMZ on your network for stuff you want to self host. That is a bit more involved though. I went through it for fun and setup a public Nextcloud instance along with DDNS and a reverse proxy. I was just messing around though and shut it down after testing performance.
Cemu. As much as I would love having a Wii U, I kind of prefer all my gaming on one machine as much as possible.
Finished up Wind Waker HD last week so I am in between games. Might get back to Skyward Sword.
If they are up for that, I’d be happy to part with mine for cheap. They’d need to get an E5-2650 (v2) to meet their 16 core requirement but a pair of those are pretty cheap.
You can usually find HPs for cheaper although they are pretty picky on what they work with. For some reason, HP decided that it will work with stuff they have not certified but the fans will constantly be at 100%.
You can find HP Proliant dl360 G8s and G9s for about that price if you want enterprise grade.
Just ask them to re-image it. An individually bought key might not pass audit. I recall my company getting audited by Adobe for Acrobat and we had to pay about $12k sure there were lots of individually purchased copies of Acrobat. Adobe did not care if we showed them the receipt for it.
Seems like most violence follows the guns in Fortnite…
