I think he's talking about the next Mass Effect game.

The game console industry proved this was a viable business plan a couple of decades ago.
They probably realized it's not profitable because 90% of a user's visits are home, work, store... wash rinse repeat day in and day out. They can probably get more meaningful data from the person through their other various tracking methods.
Are ransom attacks on the rise in recent months? Any sites that track these sort of things?
Good. I hope more forced live service games flop so execs will get it in their heads it's ok not to make a live service game and still make money from it.
Just a reminder to everyone that it's fun to hope it's aliens, but Occam's Razor suggests it isn't and the real answer is likely something naturally occurring.
They of course me c-level executives, not us plebians who do actual work.
That's the point though, right? It's all publicity. They don't want to give it to someone who may actually use it. Give it to the billionaire who will never use it so.
a couple of owners decided to race their trucks
in this rather unscientific race
Did you even read the article? The author was very upfront about the context.
You're the type of person that wants everyone to min/max everything and say "yeah but if this had happened" or "if they had done this differently"
Get down off your soapbox and appreciate this for what it was: two owners having a fun race for bragging rights. And if Ford comes out in a better light from it than Tesla, that's not circle jerking over a brand, it's just another anecdote to pile on top of all of the other stories about how piss poor the Cybertruck is at being an actual truck.
Tesla has branded it as a truck. As a layman who isn't a Tesla simp or a motorhead, I would expect a comparison with other popular trucks if I were interested in learning more about it.
Do they think they'll get more back from selling people's data than they'll have lost in sales?
Yes
Holy fuck that's hilarious. I'm definitely going to start slipping this into real life conversations with my ultra conservative family members.
