Obviously bad form, but anyone wanna bet it’s something still to do with Crowdstrike on some of the relevant processing servers?

I probably have about 3-4 hours remaining on Tales of Xillia on the PS3. I’ve really enjoyed this one (this is my 4th or 5th Tales game, AFAIR). Hoping to finish before the week (weekend?) is up.

Well, this has piqued my interest. I’m glad it’s more substantial than a straight remake/remaster

It reminds me of Last Week Tonight when the last elections were coming up.

You can tell Cody is both wanting to make a comedy show and also scream into a pillow. I think what they’re doing is good, but I imagine the research and writing process is agonizing.

I remember a book I read in elementary school (in the Cam Jansen series, IIRC) where the main conflict was a mean older brother put a password on the new family computer (a huge deal in the early 90s), and the younger hires the kid detective to find the password. The password is “hot dog”, ultimately determined because the desktop BG was a picture of ketchup and mustard.

I recall being not super satisfied with that ending.

I kinda feel your pain. A project that I helped launch is written in Typescript technically, but the actual on-the-ground developers were averse to using type safety, so any is used everywhere. So, it becomes worst of both worlds, and the code is a mess (I don’t have authority in the project anymore, and wouldn’t touch it even if I could).

I’m also annoyed at some level because some of the devs are pretty junior, and I fear they are going to go forward thinking Typescript or type safety in general is bad, which hurts my type-safety-loving-soul
