Nice, I just played that a couple weeks ago. Had some friends over and we played it through in one sitting.

Man, I'm glad it's so easy to not give a single shit about this game.

Their style has changed a lot over the years, but I think they're always technically post hardcore, with a blend of folk. It's hard to know which era will resonate with people, but January 1979 was the first I heard from them and my interest was immediately piqued. The Fox, the Crow, and the Cookie is probably their easiest to enjoy. And I have a friend who spent a decade hearing me play their music, but it wasn't until he heard this track they they clicked for him.

Louisiana, I believe.

They don't have a great track record for work/life balance of their employees, but they've been pretty consistent about quality. I just hope they took this criticism from a while back to heart. Like Ubisoft, they've found a pattern that works, and they keep making games in that cookie-cutter pattern. They're really going to have to re-invent their gameplay loop if they want to "blow people away".

I can't believe you've done this.

But it really is equivalently pseudo-anonymous. Both are leaking equal amounts of info, assuming the fake email is only used for the one account.

How much bandwidth will this use per hour of play? This sounds like a data cap destroyer.

Pretty sure basically all PC games in the last 20 years are candidates, it's just a matter of time. I was surprised how many big titles from the mid 2000s are no longer playable, and you know DRM hasn't gotten less dependent on remote servers since then.

It's really the only argument for buying physical console games, but even then you're rarely intended to play the version of the game that ships on the disk/cart.

Stock movement is always speculative with or without options. The difference that derivatives makes is the ability to price in speculative value at some point in the future as well. The price of a share is reflective of what traders think a company is worth today; but an option is a reflection of what traders think the shares will be worth at some point in the future, which people can then look at and use to re-adjust their estimation of what they think the underlying share price is worth today. It's a recursive feedback loop that (theoretically) results in share prices closer approximating a true value. A sort of predictive smoothing function.

Or more accurately, it's a clear illustration of how overvalued they are right now.

But as the saying goes, the market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.

It sounds like their concern isn't so much the boss feeling pestered, it's who gets blamed when something bad inevitably happens because of the boss' insistence on an insecure system.
