The Milgram Experiment 2: Electric (Shock) Boogaloo


I guess it’s one of those “justifiable but unwise” sort of things. If your company is doing a bug bounty program to stay on top of security vulnerabilities, what you don’t want is to create the perception that the work of devs who look for these vulnerabilities isn’t appreciated, for example, by skimping on bounties over technicalities.
Paying the 10k doesn’t ruin the company and allows them to fix a section of code that may become a vulnerability in the future. Not paying the 10k saves them 10k at the price of the devs’ trust that keeps this program effective. From a financial point of view, this is some very poor decision making.


“Over a month ago” for a product that took 6+ years to develop basically means “we had 72 opportunities to clarify this and decided to forego 71 of those”.
Also, not a marketing expert, but learning that my console or other players won’t be able to play this game doesn’t seem like a “fun surprise for gamers” to me. But then again, I don’t get paid six figures for a marketing job, so what do I know.


I’ve read somewhere that Argentina has a thriving community of German speakers for some reason.


The billionaire equivalent of a 14-year-old shouting “I’m running away!” at their parents. He’ll be back, and until then, he won’t be missed.


Ferrari execs, probably: “No, we have to make clear that we’re modern™ and there’s more to our cars than toxic masculinity!!!”
… which might even be a good selling point for a lot of people, except for the kind of people who buy a Ferrari.


The sports car manufacturer’s cycle of business:


As much as I love Larian and BG3, you’d have to have a really narrow definition of “major” if Larian isn’t a major studio since at least DOS2.


I’m starting to think the chicken comparison doesn’t do justice to the emptiness of Trump’s threats. If he ever had to fight a chicken, the chicken would win.



Kudos to granny for being so positive about it and acknowledging that the cops have to follow up on the calls they receive, but if some anonymous tipster can bring down a SWAT team on some grandma’s house without any kind of check being triggered, that might indicate that there are some problems about how these issues are being handled. Other people may get out of this with much worse than a funny story to tell when two dozen cops decide to visit their house at night.


Brexit was so bad, Farage had to change the name of his moronic fucking party.


Some of the examples from the article:



Yeah, but is it really that much more expensive than other controllers? PS5 Dual Sense is 79€. Xbox Series X/S is 65€ with the Elite 2 at 200€. Considering the additional features of the Steam controller and current development of hardware prices, the pricing seems reasonable.
Edit: I should add, those are recommended retail prices (UVP), and the actual prices from individual stores can be lower.


“Training your replacement,” Futuristic Dystopia edition.


Seconding “Thank goodnees you’re here” and “Date everything”!


Don’t forget the soundtrack, which absolutely slaps.


This administration is so corrupt, you can basically monitor the betting and the stock markets for spikes like these, and that’d be a pretty good indicator that you’ll be attacked/sanctioned/tariffed and whatnot.
Regarding the oxygen supply: I usually tunnel towards a colder area and build a self-powering oxygen machine there. It’s basically a room with electroylzers and gas pumps at the top and bottom (or a gas filter) to separate the oxygen and hydrogen. The hydrogen then goes to hydrogen generators, the oxygen is pumped into the base. Another important bit is to make sure the CO2 has a place to go (downward) before you can deal with it.
