Yes, I understand that's the current structure. I'm saying there needs to be a new structure where CEOs can't make greedy decisions with impunity. Clearly the idea that the board is supposed to prevent that doesn't work because this story is all too common.

Pisses me off that CEOs never get fired for their bullshit and get to "retire" or "resign" like they didn't just make the most boneheaded decision that severely hurt the company.

There really needs to be some organizational structure where the CEOs have the power to make the decisions they make, but the employees have the power to punish and fire them when they do shit like this. No golden parachutes for them!

I wonder if they're repackaged due to not meeting certain quality control thresholds, but still technically useable

If that's Dan Cummins, then that changes the entire context of the picture.

It had a little bit of popularity back when it was first posted. I definitely remember several meme posts with it. I think it lost popularity because the guy helping his brother with the computer meme took over the same category of memes.

I'm usually the same way with open world games like The Witcher, GTA, RDR, etc, but BG3 puts the story enough on the rails to keep me focused while still letting me make critical choices and enough freedom to explore so it feels amazing when I find little secrets or Easter eggs.

My buddy has played through it twice with 40 hour runs each.

I'm still on my first playthrough at about 70 hours and close to wrapping up act 3.

Some games need huge QoL updates. I'd like to see a balance of backwards compatibility along with the ability to toggle QoL settings. Give the player a choice to play OG or with modern QoL mechanics

I didn't say it was immoral. I'm advocating legalizing it all to eliminate the black market for it. When drugs and prostitution are legalized, there's more transparency and oversight, reducing opportunities for bad actors.

Until prostitution is legalized and regulated, there is a higher risk of it being trafficking than not.

Adam Savage has a very similar story meeting Robin Williams on the set of Bicentennial Man and getting a essentially a private show from him for a few minutes. Robin Williams was an amazing human being, flaws and all.
