You didn’t notice they only had one photo of the bastard? And it looked like a corporate lobby photo?

No photos with his wife and kid. No photos of him with friends or other family. Just the one picture like he’s posing for a yearbook.

ITT: Europeans thinking they know what a big country is.

The man bankrupted multiple casinos.

I think the only play he knows is to double down.

I didn’t know about it until this morning.

I’ve been to children’s birthday parties that are better organized than this.

There’s been a pilot shortage for years.

So the FAA reduced the requirements for being a flight instructor. There were a bunch of shitty flight instructors which led to a lot of private pilot incidents.

I think we’re seeing the results of those shitty instructor’s students becoming commercial pilots at the same time that the seasoned pilots are leaving for retirement or cushy private roles for corporations and the wealthy.

So it’s mainly an experience thing. Most industries run on the experience of a small group that guides new workers until they’re experienced enough to keep things moving. This is what happens when there’s not enough seasoned workers to guide all of the new employees coming in. The same thing is happening in the trades, where a lot of industry knowledge is being poorly passed down due to all of the old guard retiring at the same time as their replacements are being hired. It’s anecdotal, but I’ve heard from friends who manage facilities departments at major hospitals that there’s a lot of barely running equipment because they’ve only got a handful of people, and only 1 or 2 experienced people, trying to maintain entire campuses.

Overworked, inexperienced employees will make mistakes. And unfortunately for them, they no longer have the opportunity to learn from experienced workers before they are thrust into critical roles.

Oh no, a sales platform that takes a cut of revenue.

Valve isn’t a charity, and they provide very good services for what developers pay.

Devs don’t need to host download servers, they don’t need to staff customer service reps, they don’t have to set up banking infrastructure or worry at all about handling payments from hundreds of different banks across hundreds of countries.

It’s not like valve takes 30% and sits on it. They put that money to use.

And even if he’s not the shooter, he’s still a participant in war crimes.

Member when your character was retconned Into a war criminal by a tweet?

Now a days you have add —no-preserve root after the laggy French pack to fully remove it.

I used to be good at games.

And then I got older, and now I have a job, and a family, and don’t take Ritalin recreationally.

I can’t keep up with the teenagers who spend 6 hours after school everyday playing, and that’s okay. I just play games that cater more to my time.

Last time I played call of duty I just alt-F4d and refunded after some guy kept zooming around the map and mowing me down with some busted SMG. Those games just aren’t for me anymore.

France and the UK’s nuclear arsenal is minuscule compared to the US stockpile.

And a lot of the nukes at NATO bases are on loan from the US, so if the US pulls out there will not be nearly as many bombs close to Russia.

Anyone insane enough to start a nuclear war may decide that absorbing a hundred or so nukes isn’t so bad when they have hundreds of Cold War era bunkers and thousands of their own nukes.

Man, I hate when planes suddenly and randomly decide to swerve of their own accord.

Shame on this airport for not employing proper airplane trainers.

The monkey was clearly a highly trained intelligence operative
