Were this the ‘good ole times’ they always talk about?
Oh there's plenty of propaganda here, pretty extreme as well...

The Diablo 4 Steam release is struggling, with mixed reviews and less than 2,500 players
Blizzard really sleeping at the wheel this past decade, they probably should have invested into talent and another IP instead of pleasing their shareholders when Activision was associated with them.
Sucks what business does to moniize creative process/art.

How journalist view modern gamers
Game devs do try, but it's hard when the problem are the losers with superiority complexes who lack control over their own lives.

I'm sure a $1k+ PC can run pretty much any game, but not at the same graphics quality as a $4k HPC that helped create it.

How do primarily overnight package focused carriers make any money on 2-day services?
Reply in thread
Not an expert as well, but I'll share my experience. Used to work for a company that contracted with multiple shipping companies mainly for large palletized freight shipments (FedEx, R&L), but not all of them (UPS, other local freight). We had a business contract with FedEx so our shipping rate for both parcel and freight was ~50-60% cheaper than their standard rate if you were to try to schedule/ship something yourself as an individual, but we still used UPS time to time if a client needed it overnight and the FedEx truck already made it's stop for the day. For example, FedEx website would quote ~$1400 to pickup and ship a pallet shipment standard from your residential address (this would include lift-gate truck service), whereas it would cost our company $450 because they have a regular freight truck that stops by our company twice a day. Of course we ship out much higher volume, so that's where FedEx would set their discount pricing to ensure they profit in the end over a long duration.
If a pallet needed to go somewhere overnight, that price can easily double or quadruple depending if it was domestic or overseas, but nothing much changes from my end other than changing the shipping label type.
With our FedEx contract, we also had a regional manager contact for support if issues occurred with the shipment that had much quicker response time than going through their standard support routes.

Google is ‘crooked’ and a bully, CEO of Fortnite-maker Epic Games testifies in Play Store trial

Yeah, I'm confused about the price gouging too. Not sure what they did exactly. I remember fondly that Apple had an issue with then and how they advertised app purchases, but not with Google Play Store.

same sex rule
I'm so glad the userbase for memes picked up so I don't need to see so many projecting posts in 196. I have no issues with gender or sexual orientation, but it certainly gets my eyeballs rolling if it's every OTHER post that feels needed to be on here.

I downvote whenever I see them, but it seems like there are more, or a loud few (maybe both), for every one of my downvotes. It's not just here, it seems like this on /all too. To be more specific, it seems there are more trolls constantly watching and quicker on the keyboard for anything remotely political. It sucks that we need moderation in any capacity to enforce no politics on 'no politics' spaces..

[Meta] Resolving the political memes argument
How about 1 and 2, and get rid of this one? It'll force all to move and hopefully provide more interaction to their respective preference.
Chaotic, I know, but I for one try my best to avoid political arguments and topics. I bet some of you now enjoy how much it bothers me, an internet stranger not wanting a reminder of how much governments suck everywhere, but still wants to view memes here.
