  • Wasn’t talking IP, meant more generally like how orgs like EA and Activision are the go to assholes in gaming, generally. Feel like I don’t hear about Nintendo in the more meaningful (In my opinion) microtransactions, mass layoffs, ridiculous price increases, attempts to kill physical media optionality, etc conversations…

    As long as IP is the law we live under, I don’t really mind them enforcing that part. I think it was a bit lazy for palworld to blatantly ripoff Pokemon when they could be creative and make their own character universe. If you’re mad at IP law, go after your reps in government.







  • According to the report released this month, Linda Wilson, the Queens regional manager for the office that supports students in temporary housing, took her own children on trips that were paid for through grants for homeless students and encouraged employees she supervised to do the same but to keep quiet about it. “What happens here stays with us,” one staffer quoted Wilson as saying. Contacted by the New York Post, Wilson denied bringing her two daughters on trips or encouraging staff members to bring their children. Wilson called the special commissioner’s probe “a witch hunt.”

    Queens. The same place that gave the world donald trump.

    I haven’t been, but Queens sounds like America’s festering asshole, with little demons crawling out of it? Can anyone with first hand experiences there elaborate?
