FYI, Biden did end up getting them their sick days. He never stopped pressuring the companies. There was just very little reporting on it so I don’t think anyone found out. I thought the same until someone corrected me and linked what I’m putting below
ENTRY LEVEL POSITION [Insert job title]
Requirements:
or
You apply and literally never get any form of anything back besides a confirmation email “thanks”. That was the absolute most annoying, demoralizing shit when I was searching for a job post school. I tumbled around 2 contract positions and finally have landed somewhere that I love, but fuck me was it hard on me mentally to keep farming out applications for basically a year, and hear back (I dont care if its a no, i just want some form of an answer!) less than 2% of the time
Actually a very fair point, and something that I do in fact find interesting is that it hasn’t breached FO4’s numbers. That game burned me so fucking hard lol. I bought that pile of shit at full price (last game I ever purchased at launch), and it ran SOOOOOO bad. Like less than 20 fps in any city bad. I tried to push through the framerate/bugs to get to the good and for me it just never came. I dropped that game after 1 playthrough and I have 0 desire at all to ever pick it up again. I have replayed skyrim (heavily modded at this point) and FO:NV (FO3 didnt work right on my W10 machine, i wonder if it works now with W11 and compatibility mode. I would replay that for sure), but I think with FO4 the charm had worn off. Playing a game that felt like oblivion [Not in a literal sense, but in the “its a bethesda RPG” sense] (with shitty quest writing) in the modern day at sub 20 fps for the price of $60 was one hell of a wakeup call.
So all of that is to say, I find it surprising that their new flagship has not beaten FO4’s numbers. Perhaps they burned a lot more people than just me?
I do not know a single person IRL who has purchased this game (across multiple platforms). We all played and love to this day, Skyrim, FO3, FO:NV (my friends like FO4, it wasn’t for me personally, I found the story incredibly boring…the dogshit performance on release also never helped). So I am wondering what their gamepass numbers are vs. full purchases. Steam (the numbers cited in the article) would be purchases, but I would be interested one day to see the split of gamepass to purchase users
I’m confused what Republicans have to do with this point at all? That sorta came out of nowhere and doesnt pertain to anything stated in the article. In fact the article actually references Biden shutting down the railroad strike (I dont remember him being republican?).
Nobody is in government is here for you, regardless of the side. I don’t get why people politicize the shit out of literally everything or make it partisan.
The classic saying goes, “How do you know a politician is lying?”
“Their lips are moving.”
In general they want people fighting about party lines and what they make to be partisan politics. Why feed in?
My girlfriend and I both have computers (i built her a gaming PC so she could move off her laptop). The games we have enjoyed are Halo (no local co-op), Overcooked 2 (local co-op available), The Escapsists 2 (local co-op available), and “Keep talking and nobody explodes” (only 1 person needs the computer other is reading material helping them). Games we play together with co-op but we need to be on our own rigs are Apex legends (if we can call that Co-op), Starship troopers Extermination, Deep Rock Galactic, Left 4 dead 2, Satisfactory, The forest, Terraria, and Call of Duty BO3 custom zombies.
Honorable Mention: Old School Runescape. I grew up playing this game, played it again in college and got my girlfriend into it as well and now we both play often. It can be played on PC or even has a very well made mobile client that lets you play the same game on mobile. (be careful, the joke is that the game is called Run-Escape, since it tends to pull you in like a crack addiction lol)
Just came to say that companies will do exactly that if the law allows.
