Don’t you get it? You cocksucker! I work for Dick Jones! Dick Jones! He’s the Number Two Guy at OCP. OCP runs the cops.
It’s obvious in HN because of the wide range of obscure topics (eg installing scaffolding on old British smoke stacks) that occasionally arise to the front page, all the ones on that topic are quickly flagged to oblivion.
You don’t have to be a genius to see the pattern 🤷♀️

12·4 months agoIt is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.
Truer now than when Henry Ford said it like a hundred years go.
The SEC exists to shelter Self Regulating Organizations from any threats of democratic governance or law enforcement. Oh ya and to keep up the legalese charade that there literally is no such thing as counterfeit stock (because the Secret Service has purview over counterfeiting for some strange reason)
Fuck the stock market 🖕
Every time
The second book, Claw of the Conciliator, is the hardest slog with the most confusing ending (but is ultimately rewarding when it ‘clicks’).
However the third book, Sword of the Lictor, is the best in the series. So many of the best moments are in this book, as well as some of the most famous quotes.
For me, the masquerade ball at the Archon’s palace is the “buckle up” moment for the rest of the story.
For a real trip, restart book 1 immediately after finishing book 4: there is so much you will see know that you know what to look for.
Also matey, the audible audiobooks are amazing 😎
8·7 months agoDelivering this feature goes against everything I know to be right and true and I will sooner lay you into this barren earth than entertain your folly for a moment longer!
2·7 months agoI gave it a try on mobile and my general feedback is I think the game doesn’t work on my phone/browser.
My specific feedback is that I can’t tell what’s interactive and what isn’t, except for the giant arrow buttons to sidescroll the stage.
Great work getting the game up and out there 👍
1·7 months agoAmen, I am equally puzzled.
Truly some of the worst FF decisions all in the same game.
Why is the key to the postgame dungeon a piece of undifferentiated loot? Why did the game allow me to accidentally lock myself out of the postgame by selling it?
Why is the story is a low effort clone of Star Wars?
Why set FF12 in the world of FF:Tactics but make no reference to it?
Why, oh why, an all-women-race of playboy bunny girls in lingerie and heels?
That being said, programming your own teams’ AI is peak jrpg wish there was more of that. This baby got thrown out with all that dirty bath water unfortunately
Sage advice. In the meeting I will assume positive intent, like he’s protecting me from mummy’s curse.
Ya I will figure it out, it’s just another clown lording over an imaginary fief.
Can’t wait for code review lol.

Your 4 year goal reminds me a lot of Cogmind’s development and the video about the journey

13·11 months agoThe schadenfreude here is delicious, alas the perils of being such a vehemently player-hostile game publisher 😂
Imagine you could sell $39.99 shovelware to almost every single kid that watches Jimmy Neutron, because you’re gonna drown that show in ads for it.
The child then grinds down the parents’ resolve and the money is eventually spent.
I totally didn’t witness this first hand when sculpting feces into nickelodeon-shaped games.
They had me for a hot second because I saw Into The Breach on the app store 🤩
But you can’t even run the game without logging in to a Netflix account 🤮
I mean I had one, but fuck that noise I’m not cosigning on that bullshit 😤
Nothing augurs success like hearing about the “incredible talent” that just went to “other teams at EA” 🙃
The original ending was a very “that’s it?” moment.
The actually added a new game-over condition, by allowing you to just shoot the annoying reaper child, to quell the frustrations people felt.
Even in the remaster is still feels like a choice between red, blue, or green color endings.
RIP Marauder Shields, the true final boss of ME3 🙏
German must have its own share of disappointing terms.
Pferd comes to mind as an example. I really expected something more metal like horzdraken or comical like hoofenstreider. But no, just a boring Roman loan word.
