Like all jokes, shitposts are only funny with a touch of reality

The joke literally breaks suspension of disbelief because it's so ridiculous.

The profanity helps me follow along.

Dogshit take to say Steam monopoly while actively praising platform exclusivity. Sorry we like the option to use our personal favorite digital platform where our entire library is unified and not the safety helmet wearing little cousin where we're supporting Tim Sweeney.

There's a reason Steam outclasses every other platform and it's far from being a greedy monopoly. They uh, get close for this one, make a better product. Uplay, Origin, EGL, they all fucking suck in comparison of features and usability. Valve literally just gives a shit about the consumer first.

Love reading any article then opening the talk tab for the civil war of edits proposed.

Good cherry picking about "current mix" and not something along the lines of "current cleanest mixes"

Because the jedi aren't the good guys. I've said it for years they're designed as the righteous side of the same coin of the Sith. Always rambling about balance and such then willingly submitting as the lapdog police force of the bloated and corrupt Republic, only taking action when their masters need a war. It's thousands of years of moral objectivity gone wrong through the eyes of dogma fanatics who've lost their way.

Even Luke's revival (fuck off Disney) is bound to fail.

It's better to place the burden on the company as a whole per revenue than per CEO pay differential. Amazon for example made somewhere in the 500 billion dollars in revenue for 2022 but for all ~1.5m employees only spent ~42 billion on salaries for an average of ~28k a year.

They have so much ample revenue to use for increased salaries that goes unanswered.

"You shouldn't be allowed to own something and use it for any purpose that you want, just because you bought and own it"

The fuck.

This Creative Assembly is a dogshit remnant of the past. Until they stop treating their developers like gig workers and stop rising prices under the lie that they're losing money (record profits once again), I don't want shit they make. WH3 has been abysmal so far

I think it's more that most of these issues would never actually reach the CEO if brought up through standard channels. Some bs middle management explanation of why it's not possible, even though they never passed it up. CEOs are still people, and if they just randomly receive an actual personal email that wasn't debated over by a board meeting or considered inconsequential by people they hired to micromanage, they're likely to just say fuck it why not.

Otters are apex predators simply because they have the ability of tactical genius working in strike group squads. If you've ever seen the videos of them taking down and drowning crocodiles, then you know. They are not omg adorbs so cute!! They can and will destroy you. Walking navy seal copypastas.

We try and then it's taken over by corrupt lazy union bosses that don't actually help or the company just fires you under an at will employment lie and hires scabs. The government has essentially been infiltrated by corporate American to pass legislation allowing them to break unions easier. Lobbying is our problem, not the lack of unions atm.

Over half of Congress would be indicted on corruption if we really gave a shit about threats to our society like the current political theatre claims.
