Gaming@lemmy.ml•Phil Spencer blames capitalism for games industry woes: 'I don't get [the] luxury of not having to run a profitable growing business'
12·3 years agoInvestors don’t care about that anymore. Line must go up more and right now. If not, they will replace you with someone who promises to do that.
The best ways to raise stock prices include downsizing, jacking up prices, and cutting product quality to save cost. None of these are even remotely beneficial to the customers.

Gaming@lemmy.ml•Deus Ex star says that Eidos asked him not to talk about Adam Jensen in public any more
4·3 years agoYeah, the way he talks about it does not help the chances of a new game with. I can understand the frustration of an artist that is popular worldwide, while sometimes living paycheck to paycheck doing small roles. Still, maybe he should discuss with his agent how to share his views with the press in a more positive way, to avoid biting the hand that might feed him again in the future.

Technology@lemmy.ml•The Mighty Cybertruck Keeps Getting Stuck in the Snow
1·3 years agoWelcome to modern “journalism”, throwing together a few sentences based on twitter and reddit posts, without any research or asking experts.
slaacaa@lemmy.worldtoReddit@lemmy.ml•How social media's biggest user protest rocked Reddit
0·3 years agoI have been back occasionally when searching for some specific thing, and sometimes I checked r/all and my former favorite subs. My overall observation:
- Top subs already sucked before the API changes, still looking bad. I don’t have too much comparison, as I wasn’t following them anyway, but I would be surprised if they improved
- My former favorite niche subs went downhill, with lower frequency and quality of content. I assume this is due to some mods and powerusers leaving
Overall, reddit is still useful as an occasional information source for checking public opinion/sentiment on specific things, but for me, it’s appeal as a general “time-waster” social media, where I keep scrolling for an hour and leave comments is gone.

Item #: SCP-███
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-███ is to be housed in a hermetically sealed containment chamber at Site-███. The chamber must be equipped with industrial-grade air filtration systems and must be disinfected hourly. Personnel entering the chamber must wear Level A hazmat suits and carry a personal air purification unit. Under no circumstances should personnel remain within SCP-███’s containment chamber for more than 15 minutes.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a 27-year-old Caucasian male, previously known as █████ ███████, who has been the subject of an anomalous physiological change resulting from an extended period of poor personal hygiene. SCP-███ possesses the belief that abstaining from cleaning his genital area will produce pheromones attractive to women. This belief has manifested an anomalous property in SCP-███, generating a noxious odor that repels humans within a 250-meter radius.
The odor produced by SCP-███ has been classified as SCP-███-1. SCP-███-1 has been shown to cause immediate nausea, disorientation, and a strong instinctual urge to flee in exposed subjects. Continued exposure leads to more severe symptoms, including vomiting, temporary blindness, and in some cases, auditory hallucinations.
Addendum ███-A: Extract for Psychological Evaluation
Dr. ███████: Can you explain why you continue this… regimen, despite its effects?
SCP-███: You don’t understand. I’m on the verge of a breakthrough. They just haven’t smelled it long enough. They’ll come around. They always do in the end.
