I think you should not be casually cruel to your parents as they are contemplating their imminent deaths.
This is going to be a sad story for so many families. People are saving mahogany dining sets, breakfronts full of exquisite glasses and plates, and whole sets of silverware for their children who do not want, need, or have a place to put them.

I shipped a great game with my team working entirely remotely. Skill issue.
It’s time to admit that Remote Work doesn’t work. WFH Friday is a 4 day work week. Full WFH is a 2 day work week. Every interaction has to be scheduled, which means a lot of information-sharing doesn’t happen. Remote is a great lifestyle, not a way to build a great company.

Nolan is a stickler for historical accuracy and he included the bomb fucking scene. Incredible.
‘OPPENHEIMER’ has been rated R for some sexuality, nudity and language.
This marks Christopher Nolan’s first R-rated film since ‘INSOMNIA’ in 2002.

It was weird because IIRC I said quite plainly that they were very dangerous and people were pretty dismissive because they're insects, I guess.
Anyway RIP to those who died.
Were you previously aware that Joshua Sawyer considers Cazadors to be his proudest addition to Fallout: New Vegas?
He loved how they messed with players and when their concept art was first shown on the Bethesda forums, he knew players would “dramatically underestimate them.”

Man I'm watching Reacher and I'm so tense, a biker has confronted Reacher and taken Reacher's gun, then pulled a knife and announced he is going to gut Reacher and leave him to die. How is Reacher possibly going to get out of this confrontation with a much smaller knife-armed man

I had a girlfriend who hated video games. One of the reasons was because as kids her brother would play Street Fighter w/ her as Blanka and bite Chun Li's head so blood would come out. She would scream and stop playing and he would promise to not do it again and then do it again.

Just listened to the Dan Carlin session on executions and I think we should make Breaking on the Wheel the only method of state execution, but limit it to all but the most fiendish individuals (scammers, junk mailers, Blanka players)
