Just how morally, ethically, intellectually bankrupt do you have to be to argue that 15-year-olds can sell sex but can’t affirm gender

The owner of this business is a old, wonderful friend & a former employer of mine, so please, I need all of my Pacific Northwest followers keeping an eye out for this stuff, especially if you run in nerd circles, so that his dream business, built via decades of grinding, can keep running.
KIRO 7 ran an article and two TV pieces on the theft of a box truck full of arcade PCBs, artwork, and machines from my workplace yesterday. If anyone in the Seattle area sees someone offloading a ton of CPS2/NAOMI/Neo Geo PCBs, stuff of that nature, please reach out.

1. they were never educated (esp "ipad generation") & don't know how computers work
2. our tools and services are all SO AWFUL NOW, degraded at best, actively user-hostile at worst

Get a refund. Dont bother
I already knew after BO6 that BO7 would be littered with AI, since they were already blatant enough with it in BO6
This is just depressing how triple AAA companies are getting away with all this shit

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back
Insulting to the players, insulting to the IP, insulting to the medium, the developers. And the craft itself. Fuck you executives who pushed this garbage.

I’m *still* feeling the effects, financial especially, of that decision some asshole suits made. They should legit count themselves blessed that by month 9 of unemployment I had not self-immolated on Riot’s front steps. But the studio made an enemy for life and I will die spitting venom about them.

That got me an answer, at least: it was nothing to do with me and everything to do with the studio’s ontologically evil c-suite acting without thought or care to whose lives they ruined. And they *had* ruined mine. I’d end up being unemployed for 9 months as the game industry burned down.

I could not get my old job back. Riot had forced me into unemployment in what we now know to be the worst job market in industry history.
I finally found Riot’s Head of People on LinkedIn and sent her a 2000-word message explaining in detail how badly they had fucked me and asked them to explain.

They did not tell me why or what happened. My recruiter’s boss simply had a video call with me where he told me the position was no longer available and they would “try” to find me something else. No one from his team would ever contact me again, even after multiple followups on my part.

3 years ago today, Riot Games offered me a job making more money than I ever thought I’d make in my life. I had 19 interviews over 2.5 months to get it. Partner and I were moving to LA for it. I put in notice at my job and apartment.
2 weeks later they rescinded the offer due to “headcount issues”.

Democrats agreed to more of us shitting ourselves to death from Salmonella, in exchange for their precious delay-free holiday flights home, and imho we should never let them live it down
Congress’s shutdown deal eliminated key food safety rules, blocking agencies from enforcing measures to prevent contamination and trace outbreaks. This rollback has coincided with a surge in hospitalizations and deaths from foodborne illnesses.
Shutdown Deal Kills Rules to Prevent Food Contamination and Foodborne Illnesses
The gutting of these rules coincides with a huge increase in hospitalizations and deaths from foodborne illnesses.
