Translation: We were successful into bribing our way into the development scene to have games be unoptimised, driving sales and margins up, thus pleasing shareholders. We’re still shit at making server blades and connectors though, as seen by the thousands of cancelled blackwell server orders in favour of the older Hopper, given blackwell is a fire hazard. Thank you regarded gamers for buying our low VRAM trash so we will never be made to pay for our fuck ups.
Edit: added sauces
Salesforce, that’s why. It started with them and now it’s the first thing regarded MBAs from Ivy league “top” universities consulting on behalf of McKinsey, PwC, EY, KPMG and Deloitte recommend to any Ctype position as soon as they are onboarded. If there was a virus that deleted consulting and marketing firms from the face of the earth, I’m positive we could end war and world hunger in a decade.
Like the baseball world series…

For anyone looking for an ELI5 on CNN vs VTi.
Np.
I think we’ll have to see what the Cheeto will do. With so much bribery going his way, I’d be unsurprised if he repealed Biden’s bans. Shit, I’d be unsurprised if he did it out of spite, no bribes needed.
AI generated trash.
The letter comes after the Biden administration introduced a three-tier licensing system for U.S.
It’s not football, there are no teams here. The Biden executive is perfectly capable of being shait without any intervention from the cheeto.
I think if people in the US had the capacity for introspection and empathy we would have had a collective
are we the baddies
moment every year for the past 250y…
The same as when Americans posted about the gaza genocide on tik tok, the government cracks down.
Huh!?
If there was a GPS for doing the right thing, annoying the Cheeto, Elmo and Zuckershit would be waypoints in all of the offered route alternatives.
The more you buy the more you save LMAO
Caveat: it’s wccftech, there’s a non trivial chance they just pulled this story out of their arse.
Edit: thx @SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone for the verification. You da MVP
Maybe Wilds will be a launch game and Nintendo anticipated the release to capitalise on it? Dunno, just playing devil’s advocate.
It did. Work well -> not officially dead yet
Thank you for stepping in.
I’d add
Saas can compound to higher costs due to the recurring subscription, flexibility comes at a cost, especially when unnecessary features are bundled. Much like you mentioned of salesforce, there’s a limited control on your data (and your customer’s) It can’t be airgapped for critical functions You’re locked in to one vendor in many cases Cost creep when features are bundled during the enshitification phase (salesforce again) It reduces consumer/enterprise options since it’s much more profitable so it conducted to the dissappearance of several perpetual license models for scientific software that has now compounded into billions of tax money being buried for use rather than any kind of useful feature addition.
There’s nothing inherently bad or good about SaaS per se as it can make sense, the problem is it became the racehorse the entire industry bet on and *EVERY *SINGLE *FUCKING *PIECE *OF *SW is now fucking SaaS, from printer SW to games on a flipping phone to access to basic scientific sofware. What could have been a great invention to provide scalability and low upfront cost to enterprises spread like cancer and corrupted the entire software industry. For that, Salesforce has been relegated to their own hell circle.
Go away ad bot.
For those who are not in the know, the cancer of software as a service was pioneered by salesforce. The devil has created a new circle in hell where salesforce employees are sent not to compete with actual demons because even in hell there are unions.
“While some videogames have recently taken the opportunity to embed social or political agendas within their experiences, it is clear that many players do not appreciate this, and as a result, we have seen a number of high profile releases underperforming commercially during the last year alone,” Hill said. “Our games will always be developed to maximise player enjoyment and commercial success, and as such, we will not be integrating any social or political agencies into these experiences going forward having observed the high risk this can present.”
Talk about journos making a mountain out of a molerat… If it in fact was written by a “journo” and not an AI. To be fair, journo is a stretch, journos have journalism degrees, there’s very little separating “gaming journalists” from bloggers. (Schreier and the like being the exception)
MIT in my heart is Nr.1!
… In making students commit suicide for frivolous IP lawsuits…
Otherwise is like baseball world series. “American exceptionalism”
